Any tips on how to not get caught ?
TPang & I both mentioned it - set a time that you stand up & sit back down to lock in your earnings - for TPang that's every 2 or so rounds, for me every 2K or so in gold (about 4-5 rounds)
As far as not getting caught in the first place, IMHO it's not possible. But to minimize chances:
1: Play alone - there's a lot less chance of matching a card on the table if there's less players - especially human players!
2: I try to sit where I the cheat card menu doesn't obscure the other player's hands so that I don't forget what the other players have while I select my cheat card - I seem to screw this up most often when I already have an Ace and I'm selecting a 10, J, Q, or K.
3: If another player matches your card leave immediately - better to sacrifice 500 gold than all your winnings.
4: Accept that once in a while, the dealer's down card WILL match yours & you'll be busted with no time to leave the table before you're caught. - nothing you can do about that!
