If anyone is going to have any chance at all of beating CSMs (without cheating).I believe your first step is going to have to be able to have an intricate understanding of how they exactly work and then secondly, know the very hard math involved to work out a way of beating them. Anyways i have...

Ok well i can see your logic on both points, especially your logic on the concept from harrington as strangely enough that makes a bit of sense to me..maybe i should buy one of his books.Having said that though i still will never fully agree with folding pocket aces but can now see why some...

i dont mean to hijack the post or anything but yeah i am only a short drive from canberra and is my regular casino, what ya wanna know? Back to the post...if crown is so bad and you had to play in australia, where would you play?Ok i admit nearly all casinos here including crown suck but who...

Well look at it another way if you are willing to fold pocket aces first hand of the tourney because you are afraid of busting out due to a suckout on the first hand shouldn't that mean you should fold pocket aces at every stage in the tournament until you make the money?What if you get pocket...

I disagree on both facts, firstly if i was dealt pocket aces first hand early in the tournament i would be jumping up and down for joy as it gives me the best chance for a very quick double up. However i could probably understand someone folding pocket aces first hand in a freeroll or in micro...

Just because someone is smarter then you doesn't mean they are right and they are the be all and end all on a particular subject even if they are top of their field especially when it involves law, politics or religion and even more so when the legislation can be vague or interpreted many...

It's tax free in australia too regardless of being a counter or not as there was some counter in australia who was taken to court by the ATO (Australian Tax Office) but the counter won the case effectively cementing the fact we can card count and not have to worry about tax at all. In terms...

Just wondering what everyone's opinion is on which country is the best to play blackjack in? I know being a professional gambler in Australia has its advantages as all gambling wins (even if your a card counter) is completely tax free, although the downside is there is not many casinos here...

The piece of advice/technique that helped me the most was learning to count card in groups of 2 or 4 as most cards cancel each other out like if someone is dealt k2 you do not have to add anything to your count and can ignore them just like you would a black 7,any 8, any 9 (note i am using a...

Has anyone else received heat playing at a live dealer casino? The only heat i have really received so far was from one dealer who started talking to me and asking questions all the time, flirting, asking stupid questions and all that which is pretty peculiar for a live dealer online casino...

I am saying at least 60% as i haven't really looked at the penetration of the deck yet and is just based on my memory from a few games i have played. However if we did assume it was just 60% what would be a decent spread without attracting too much attention that should beat that sort of game...

lol if you are as good as phil hellmuth thinks he is you wouldn't even play pocket aces in certain circumstances

The penetration would be about or more the 60%....not allowed to deviate from basic strategy because the game is called basic strategy blackjack (a very very new game) the only exceptions made is you are allowed to take insurance if you want, you don't have to double down if you don't want to...

Thanks for that, the game i am looking at has the following rules 6 decks, S17, DAS, No Surrender, Peek Would this be beatable with optimal basic strategy play and card counting with a spread of 1 - 8 units

A simple yes or no would suffice
