    Starting Midway?

    Was thinking of an alternative to spread betting. How about if you start a shoe at 4 units. I know people say that you are at a disadvanatge, but what happens if there is a cluster of a lot of high cards in the first hand dealt? You would be more likely to win. Your count would be...

    Ace/10 Front Count

    Has anyone had experience with this type of count? I have heard that it is weak, but I play in a Casino with 4 decks. So wouldn't counting the 10's and A's and getting a really low count be a very good advantage to the player?

    spreading bets Cheers Mate, have read up and it seems quite easy. At least you don't have to devide by number of decks or take away the number of players from total. Was wondering a few things though... When I read up, it says to spread your bets between 1 and 5 units or greater. Won't...

    UK BJ Rules

    CSM and UK Rules As the guy says the rules have changed in uk. A lot of casinos don't use CSM's though. I go to Gala and they use 4 decks and and the dealer shuffles after each shoe, and they also use about 75%+ of the deck. I have only played blackjack in UK, and here you can play behind...

    Unbalanced Systems Thanks for advice. Have a lot of time on my hands at the moment and want to get good at a system. Have also considered Ace/10 front count with 4 decks. Would this work at busy times when I stand behind a good player in uk and place behind him when not many high numbers...
