I just finished today’s one hour of play at Pharaoh’s Casino single deck blackjack.

Today started like yesterday finished, with a nice run of cards. I started the day with a bankroll of $450, and by hand 48 of my play I was up to a nice round figure of $600. That $150 profit would prove to be the high point of my session though. A steady downward trend started in, and by hand 114 I was back to just even.

I headed into the red for quite a while, reaching today’s low point of $355 on hand 157. I waffled around from there, but ended up getting back to exactly even as my self-imposed hour time limit expired.

Today’s summary (day 2):
Starting bankroll: $450
Low point today : $355 (-$95)
High point today: $600 (+$150)
Ending bankroll: $450 (Even)

One hour of play, 260 hands of $10 each.

My blackjacks today: 17
Dealer blackjacks today: 9
(One blackjack was a push.)

I caught almost twice as many blackjacks as the dealer today, and still couldn’t manage a profit.
———————————————
Overall results: I have a profit of $150 so far. After 506 hands played, the expected win for this game is $5060 * 0.11% = $5.57. So, my actual results are the $5.57 expected win plus $144.43 worth of good luck!
