Thoughts on clumpiness

I've witnessed beyond statistical significance that clumps of high cards will follow clumps of low cards, and vice versa. I've observed this even if the count is neutral and was curious what people on this forum think. Am I imagining things or can this observation be used to beat even low-pen games?

How do you know that your observations are statistically significant? Did you keep careful records and do statistical analysis? Please share your data and your analysis.

There's nothing wrong with putting it all on the line with one or two bets. It's probably smarter anyways than hundreds of small bets and lets face it, the casino doesn't like it for a reason. Ive had the best times this way and the only times Ive ever really won large amounts. Bet $10000 over a year and the casino loves you and do it all at once and they won't take the bet.

Clumps are part of the game and they can help or hurt the dealer or the player. You would need a very simple shuffle and shuffle tracking to exploit them.
