I was browsing and came across Dorian Harewoods Strickly Blackjack DVD, Dorian is a Holywood actor who has been playing blackjack professionally for 20 years. Im thinking of buying it just to see what his system is all about. Anyone have anymore info. Here is his website...

Dude this is the Voodoo forum remember, look its not fool proof, not even card counting is fool proof, its just a technique I like to use to spot tables where the dealer is possibly losing. DC

One thing I like to do that I have had success with is look for a table where the dealers chip stack is depleted compared to others, if the dealer has full stacks stay away. I have had some very good sessions doing this, basically its a tell that the dealer is busting and its time to get in on...

Does anyone have any good book recommendations for the non counter, Im not interested in card counting.. DC

In Sydney Australia its the same as Europe, no hole card and blackjack beats 21 on all splits and double downs. I have looked at the strategy engine and there does seem to be a difference in how one should play based on no peek, but is no peek strategy the same a no hole card strategy, im...

Sonny, Thanks for the reply, Im fairly new to the world of blackjack, Im an avid craps man and still think its one of the best games in terms odds when played correctly. Can you tell me more about scavenger plays (hand interactions), side bets, backlining, sequencing. Also do you have...

I have had alot of success with Dahls progressions (1,1,1.5,1.5,2,2,3,3,5,5,7,7,10,10), basically you bet the minimum when you lose a hand and start you progression as soon as you win a hand, last week I got a hot streek and went from $75 to $1300 in an hour. Im not saying its always going to...

At my local casino dealers are always giving bad advice, they always ask to split 10s and 5s, sometimes people say sure OK. Although once I slipped up and doubled 9 against 7 which really was a bad move, just before I pushed the money towards my box the dealers asks me if I am sure giving me a...

I play at Star city in Australia and have the same problem, 6 decks and CSMs, I use basic strategy and progressive betting, so far it has proven to be successful, I either come out in front by $100-200 or break even, if anything using the BS will minimize losses and using the progrossion allows...

I dont count I just use BS and a progressive betting format, I worked my way upto a $50 bet and the doubled and won, as soon as I lose a hand its back to minimum bet, so far so good. How i do it is win 2 hands, increase bet to next level, win 2 more hands and increase to next level etc etc.. On...

Last night I was playing at my local casino and was doing very well, went to a $15 table with $100 and cashed out with $350 in just over an hour. This guy next to me who is losing bigtime says to me "we have to play for the table", I said to him "I play for myself", he wasnt very happy with that...

I was reading an old post in regards to BS and somebody posted stating that you only really need to memorize one BS for all games becasue the difference between playing one strategy over another is only 0.1% difference. What is the consensus, do you really need to memorize every single chart...

Thanks Guys, makes more sense now..

The strategy engine on this site for my local casino rules (6 Decks, S17,D9, DAS, No Surrender, No Peek) recommend not to double 10 & 11 against 10 & A. I have Donald Dahls Progressive Blackjack book in which his charts recommend doubling against 10 & A unless you have a 10 you dont double...

Your right I got very lucky on craps, my normal play in craps is win line plus odds, come bet, then take odds with up to 3 numbers working at once. This ls the most advantageous play you can have in craps and get the house advantage below 1%. But i had no time to play that strategy and needed to...
