Default Wonging double deck

Considering sitting down and only playing positive counts. Figure I'd be making bets close to 50% of the time. Anybody doing this? Would likely be playing 2 spots, 2-4 units each spot, gives me a 0:8 spread. How much heat is this going to draw?

If the place even allows mid-deck entry (most don't) you'll get heat quick.

It's insanely powerful if for some reason you can get away with it for any period of time. But, good luck.

Surprisingly most around here do allow mid-shoe entry... up to $100. The problem is the table min. All have $25 min but only 1 has $10, a couple $15. So to have any ability to rotate stores I'm playing $25. Just looking for a way to get a better edge with my bankroll.

Well, in that case, play for like 1/2 hour. Don't cash out your chips between sessions. Should make a killing.

Moo,

As long as I start the slipper I can sit out some hands and get back in as long as I don't leave the table, maybe you can too.

However, if you do this for any length of time and misuse the option I think you would not only get barred but the rule will be changed to disallow.

I use strong indice plays in the negative counts or just take a break or play no more hands. But sometimes I will jump back in.

Don't abuse a good DD game or they will go the route of SD.

Every wong helps, so you could also be "polite", and wong into the table before you sit down or, or after breaks, and also wong out not all negative counts.

Is there smoking in the casino? If so,step away from the table for a smoke whenever the count tanks.

a gem of an idea..... ^

i'm a little less bold. sometimes i just sit out every other round 'to change cards' in mild negative counts, so now i play half of the hands, not ideal, but less noteworthy than sitting out the rest of the shoe and maybe more compulsive looking...

if count tanks worse - off to the wizzer!
