Where did anyone say 17 is a winning hand?? If you double 11, and get a 5, you need the dealer to bust, or you lose. If you double 11, and get a 6, you at least have the opportunity to push on 17. That was all I was stating. Why do most people in these forums half read things, and then go...

I'll take a 17 when doubling instead of stiff any day.

It would be the game you described. Thanks for that info!

I know you always want to hit soft 17 against anything. I just gave that example as 17 or greater gives you a better chance of winning/pushing when doubling. With the soft 14 there is one extra card that can help you with a rehit that can't with a soft 15. You only have a 1 out of 13 chance...

Basic strategy says to double a soft 15 vs a 4, but hit a soft 14 vs a 4. With both those hands there are five cards that can get you to 17-21. Not doubling a soft 15 you need an ace in order to be under soft 17. With a soft 14 it's a 2 or an ace to be under soft 17. The only advantage I...

Website Game Sorry to beat a dead horse here, but I was just thinking about this. Door 1 represents 33%. Doors 2 & 3 represent 66%. You choose door 1, and door 2 is unveiled. Doors 1 & 3 are the only doors left. You only had a 33% chance of guessing right the first time so your...

I was just reviewing my Win/Loss Statement from my favorite Connecticut casino, and saw my estimated wins. I always play rated, but seeing my estimated win has me a little concerned. It is not accurate, as I have won more from this one casino, but seeing the number they think I won is very...

I read this forum everyday, and rarely ever post because of this crap. I play at least three times a week, and consider myself a very experienced counter/AP. Rukus sounds like a bitter old man with a string of bad luck, and can't stand to see someone win, period. He claims he wants to help...

I love how he "prefers" to win on his fourth bet. I guess that means I prefer to win all my bets. This is just so stupid may as well just hand over the money.

When I buy in after winning at a different table on the same day does it make a difference to the pit if I color down to play? Or is it better to buy in with cash? Or does it not matter...

Foxwoods & Mohegan Sun I went to both today, Sunday. Mohegan had five $10 tables until 2:00, that is when I left to go to Foxwoods. It is rare to see 2 decks or less cut off at Mohegan, never ever seen less than two. The game I think is usually unplayable. Foxwoods had a good mix of $15...

I'd say you can definately backcount at Foxwoods during the week. I do it all the time. I have never bet a hand that high. I've been playing about three days a week. for over 2 months, and have heard a "checks play" by the dealer 4 times. The pit barely looks. What I've seen would be a gambler...

MGM is run by Foxwoods. What I've heard is that the name has been licensed to Foxwoods. The dealers can not switch back, and forth. They work at one, or the other. I have never played in the high roller rooms at Foxwoods, or MGM. I have heard pen is slightly better, but that depends so much...

Hey, This is my first post on this forum. I have played extensively at Foxwoods, and a little at Mohegan Sun the past few months. Here is the deal: Foxwoods Foxwoods has an 8 deck game. Penetration averages about a deck and a half. It depends on the dealer. I have seen much more, and much...
