Your version would not have the hacking involved which was THE REASON the guy was able to pull off the scam.
Many tables now have card readers on the shoe. It reads every card as it is being dealt.
This most likely happened at high stakes BJ.
How would a surveillance view help with beating blackjack? Their view can't capture the dealer's hole card unless it has x-ray vision I'm not aware of. It would help with counting cards, but there is no way a player can get away with winning $33 million counting cards. Maybe a surveillance view could help with shuffle tracking, but that seems like a huge stretch. A hidden camera around table level would work much better I think. It's silly to speculate on how the scam operated unless the casino provides more information which is unlikely to happen.
