Im finding that OG with win and stop loss limits is working great for me. Some people can go ahead and not believe it if they want but its working for me and until it stops working im going to continue to use it.

Guys im going out with my wife and some friends tonight and leaving in a couple min. I wont have time to post my results or answer the replies tonight. I will post the results tomorrow since I will have much more time. Its going to take me a while to post the results (it was a good week at the...

So the card counter can expect to win in the long term. So it may take him his entire life to show some kind of profit? lol Like I have said before I will continue to use OG as long as it wins. I have stop loss limits to protect me from a long losing session. If I can't make a profit then...

Would that include one weekend worth of play? Lets say 200 hands? I mean get real! If thats the case then how is that I won a good amount of cash last week using OG? I totally agree that card counting wins in the long term because its been proven. However, to say that some one cant win...

I will never go thru one of those really big losing sessions because I have stop loss limits! Thats what your not understanding. Just because a player is using OG doesn't mean he can't stop the progression. You think because the computer says you will have one big losing session means...

Just because a player is using OG doesn't mean hes not playing on an advantage shoe. Yes, card counting wins in the long run and we know that because of players like Ken Uston. However, to say that any player that uses OG is going to lose is crap. If thats the case then why have I been...

BETTING SYSTEMS AND BLACKJACK: IS OSCAR'S SYSTEM A WINNER? By Arnold Snyder (From Player Magazine, November/December 1995) © 1995 Arnold Snyder Players ask me more questions about betting systems for blackjack than just about any other topic. Not betting systems for card counters—just...

Exactly! I've lost money card counting when the shoes was positive. I've won money card counting when the count was negative. I've won more money using OG than I have counting cards. Just like you said above "they can't win consistently" which is true. I don't understand why some don't...

I like OG because you can win money even when the house wins more hands. That's why I started using it. I also feel that winning just a few betting units per table plays to my advantage. I will post this weeks results on Friday or Sat. I wont be going back to work until late Sept. so I...

Your post reply pretty much sums up my point. I chose to use win and loss limits at the table to help myself win. I understand that even using OG I could still get smoked at the table. In fact, I have got smoked at the table using it. I also have started using the red 7 count to help prevent...

I must be doing something wrong using OG because I made some pretty good money last week using it.

I decided to use 10 dollar betting units because I don't want to bet 200 hundred per hand. So the 10 dollar betting units allow me to work the system better. I have a question for you guys. Does a card counter always win when he has the advantage? Does a card counter always lose when the...

Sonny, i've lost money while counting cards when the shoe was positive. I have won money card counting when the house had the advantage. I will continue to use the grind because its working very well. if I find that I cant make money using it then I will stop.

The card counter is betting bigger when he has the advantage and betting smaller when he doesn't. OG allows the player to win bigger bets than he loses. I will agree that just about all the betting systems invented are garbage. However, oscars grind isn't one of them. Hell even Arnold...

If the game of BJ stays the same (rules) then I believe I will be up money. However, this question can't be factually answered until I stop playing BJ. I may quit playing BJ next month, 5, 10, 20 years from now. Until I stop playing BJ this question can't be factually answered.
