Default How much to bet?

OK- i'm going to AC for the first time this sunday and gonna try to play in one of the few decent games (pen., # of decks) left there (or so ive read). I've gotten advice in another thread that the best strategy to beat these games is to wong in at positive shoes. I plan on doing this mostly, but i'd also like to sit a little, even if it means sitting through slightly negative counts, just to really get a feel for counting in a casino. I am going to bring $1,500 and hopefully can play at some $10 tables. My questions are:

1- How much should my bet spread be in correlation with the true count (hi-lo) for A) wonging and B) sitting?

2- Is it true that I need absolutely ZERO camouflage at this playing level?

thank you!

Default re: how much to bet

When you're wonging, I assume you're only playing when the TC>= +1 If so, you have the advantage and can make the spread whatever you wish it to be as long as you don't put your risk of ruin at too high of a level. If you're going to be sitting the whole time, I'd recommend at least a 1-10 spread for a 6 deck game. No it isn't true that you don't need 0 camouflage. I've gotten heat being at a $5 table. They can't kick you out of the casino but they can take measures against you.
