Quantum Communication Cheating (Theoretical)
How it works
In a 2020 Physical Review A paper, researchers at MIT and Caltech studied a theoretical blackjack-style game in which the players may still send one classical bit. Shared entanglement gave a small edge over classical play only in some very small decks. The authors said the equipment is laboratory-only and not practical in a casino. A measurement on one system does not send the other player the cards.
On the record
MIT and Caltech researchers published a 2020 paper in Physical Review A showing that quantum communication could theoretically give blackjack players a slight advantage over classical card-counting strategies in limited situations with very few cards remaining.
