Talking Please help a new guy!!!

I have been studying, and practicing blackjack on CVBJ for about 2 months now. I use the hi-lo counting system, and in about a month, I think that I will be ready to play at a casino. Here is the setup on the blackjack game I will be playing in.

Lucky Ladies-
*any 20 pays 4-1
*suited 20 pays 9-1
*matched 20 pays 19-1
*Queen of Hearts Pair pays 125-1
*Queen of Hearts Pair with Dealer Blackjack pays 1000-1

Blackjack-
*6 deck shoe
*Dealer hits soft 17
*Double down on any 2 cards
*Split pairs up to 4 times
*about 80-85% penetration
* no surrender
*Blackjack pays 3-2

Questions-
1. I have about $1000 spending money every month after bills, so I am giving myself a $1000 Bank roll. With a $1000 Bank roll starting out, what kind of betting strategy should I be using?

2. On My Lucky Lady side bets, at what true count should I start betting the lucky ladies, and what kind of betting strategy should I be using on the lucky ladies as well?

3. Getting a matched 20 on Lucky Ladies...Does that mean that my 20 has to be paired, or paired and suited?

4. I also read somewhere that once the true count gets pretty high that it may start working against me(obviuosly not on lucky ladies). At what kind of true count can I expect this to happen?

Lots of questions. Sorry, but I want to get it right the first time. Thanx!
