I have now spent about 12 hours (3 sessions) counting and so far doing good! I can easily keep the count, remember indices, find the true count...etc thanks to cvbj! I'm up 27 units, half of which is due to luck (Expected win is only at about 15 units for 12 hours of play).
The problem is, I feel like I stick out like a sore thumb! I backcount until the TC=1 (if the tables fairly empty) or TC=2 (if its pretty full). So I have to stand behind tables quit a bit. I know the goal is to blend in but its tough!
In "Blackjack Attack" Don says he makes it look like hes more into the craps game as he counts from a distance. I tried standing closer to the craps tables or roulette but then people are blocking the cards and the ones that are not being blocked are often to far to make out. I have perfect vision so I don't understand how anyone could pull this long distance counting off!
Anyone have any hints to get me brainstorming in the right direction? I'm beginning to realize that learning to count may be the easy part of the process. Theres no clear steps to follow on how to get away with it. Any responses or PMs would be appreciated.
