I see there is a new blackjack forum. From a post by "Ellis" whose profile says E. Clifton Davis:
------------------------------------------------------------------
Ellis here: As if to prove it wasn't luck, Carlos has done it again with another big win. $125,000 this time in one sit down. This makes a total of $175,000 in four sit downs.

Most card counters use the count in the most ineffective way. We use it the most effective way and for many purposes. For example. We can use the count to determine the game type of that table. The tighter the count range, like +4, -5, the more the dealer will break, because the more count reversal or direction change there will be. Also the more the dealer will cross over the 0 line. The larger the count range, like -30, +30, the less she will break.

How could this be? Simple: When you study B.S. you will soon see that BS players hit when high cards are running a lot more than they hit when low cards are running. This leaves an abundance of dealer favorable low cards in the game for the dealer. This in turn causes a cycle bias whenever the number of players in the game doesn't change for a while. Why do you think there are so many "NO MID SHOE ENTRY" games these days? Do you really think the casino is trying to help us? Think again!

You didn't say anything about dealer biases. But since you were losing against random cards, I'm going to bet that the dealer was getting more than her fair share (4 out of 13) of ten ups, that she was breaking less than 28%, and was making too many clean sweeps??? There is a sure way to avoid dealer biases. Only play new cards. I like to get there early enough to watch the new card prep. With a little experience you can tell whether they are going for random cards or boxed card clumping and choose 1st or 3rd base accordingly.

I think the blackjack system cost about $195. The baccaret system is $1,000 soon to go to $2, 000 - so they say.

PS - There is a "Keith" Smith over there. Any relation?
