I attended a convention with a bunch of probability & statistics experts. A number of them absolutely cleaned up and it wasn't at all surprising to see who - but I suspect the casino's losses to them were quickly subsidized by their less keen peers who were also playing (albeit badly) and the dozens who were watching and ordering drinks like our plane was going down. Honestly if I was hosting Defcon, nerds winning at the Blackjack table would be the least of my concerns.
