Default My play results

I was at the casino for a short overnight trip this weekend. I arrived on fri and played for four hours at a 15min table. I bought in for 60 and after playing at this table for two and half hours was up 200. After a short dinner I went back to another 10min table and after playing with the dumbest people on this earth quit after losing 50. The next morning I toured the floor and played 15min tables with a total loss off 500 dollars. This is something that happens to all Aps and is expected as a neg flux. I know a 15min table is out of my limit which should be 10 min table. I read alot of fantastic results on this forum but normal is normal and results may vary with individuals. The point being that if a person plays long enough your results should and do eventually average out for a adavantage player. blackchipjim

So what led you to the conclusion that a $15 table is out of your limit?

Default my table limits

I consider my bankroll and table conditions what my limts are. I take into consideration my spread and ror before I correlate my limts. blackchipjim

Well OK then lol.

So, the obvious question, or at least the one I was wondering about lol, knowing that, why play that game so much, or, indeed, even at all?

Did you bet differently playing the $10 min game than the $15 min game to keep ROR the same? Or were you willing to accept a higher ROR in the $15 min game?

No big deal - as long as you have a clear idea, maybe even a really clear idea, of what you're doing, no problem.

Default minimums

Well Kasi I geuss my play is still in developement so to speak. The tables I play at and conditions change from time to time. I'm working my bankroll up slowly to reach a level of betting that reduces my ror. My spreads are sometimes suicidal and sometimes I overbet to maintain the level needed. Smart? no. I play as a hobby and need to refine alot of aspects of my game but that's another story. blackchipjim

That's good you're aware of such things.

Since conditions do change, take a range of expected conditions to figure how maybe to bet the same bankroll with the same ROR.

How do u bet what bankroll in what game with the $10 min and what do you consider your ROR to be?

Just be careful and try not to be too aggressive lol.

Default Patience Wonging

Wonging-in damn near impossible at your local casino. Especially if they have you rated knowing BS. A high percentage of these young dealers count today. They sit in high roller rooms playing against $500 a hand player's one on one. They enjoy a good game. It would take a good dealer two hours to determine if you were an AP. Only possible way...unhumanlike cover. In addition, I think the dealer's would admire you for it verses running home to tell on Bobby.

Default my play

I will bare my soul on my game so be gentle. I play a 8d s17 doa with most pens going between 75 to 80 sometimes 85. My bankroll is about 2800 but I play replenishable to 5000. I have a one to five spread my high bet being 50 at a 10min table or one to ten on a five min table. I estimated my risk of ruin to be about 13% and this is only a estimate. If you can punch the numbers and tell me anything different to improve I would appreciate it. I also wong out on neg counts. blackchipjim
