Sure, but automatic shufflers are getting more and more common. Not to mention, you have to have a fairly large starting pot to have a hope of making a decent profit. Then even if you do everything right, you still have a relatively high chance of going in the red.
Not necessarily true. People still succeed at card counting with 6 deck shoes. The main problem is that you need a lot of capital for the odds to eventually even out in your favor. Even in the bast case scenario, you still only have a 1% advantage. There are counting groups that will pool tons of money and then split the total winnings as to maintain a higher average winnings.
Except that the introduction of multiple decks for a single table made card counting all but useless
I call shenanigans
It still works, just not as well. There are plenty of youtube videos teaching how to count cards even with multiple decks.

If you have a group of 10 all putting in 7k that’s a lot of money to gamble with pretty good gains

Actually, 6 deck shoes, still slow for counting.
What has killed counting is casino’s shuffling after every hand you a single deck.
