I have recently arrived at a mathematically interesting milestone in my dedicated BJ bankroll and, after considering several possible solutions, I am throwing this one out to you guys for your sage input. Here's the scenario:
I am currently playing $5 units on SD and have started with a $2700 BR for these purposes only. I assume that this amount represents full (BJ) Kelly for a $5-20 spread. The problem has occured now that I have increased the BR by 50% and now stands at $4000. If I want to keep all the ratios the same, i.e. RoR, bet spreads, EV etc., then what can I do at this point? The options seem flawed for one reason or another:
1) Increasing min/max. bet would put me over Kelly.
2) There are no $7.50 chips.
3) Stretching spread would invite certain pit attention.
4) Compressing the spread (i.e. $10-30) would, I believe lower my EV.
So thus is the dilemma. Any mathematically acceptable suggestions out there that I haven't thought of?
