    BJ table is a snake pit, you'll get bitten

    This happens to all players at one time or another. You simply need to decide BEFORE you sit down how you will handle it. This weekend the player to my right was upset that I hit my 12 vs. dealer 2. I busted and the dealer draws to a 21 causing the table to lose. He made a big deal of it and...

    WSOB or UBT?

    From a players point of view UBT is a more stimulating format and better for tournament BJ WSOB - "nicer" view and higher production values I'd PLAY in either and watch both. UBT gets 2.5 stars out of 4 - best UBT Show was #1 with a thrilling final hand WSOB (last season) 2.5 stars...

    Ken Smith vs. Zengrifter vs. LVHCM

    Ken's the man I've had the opportunity to play against Ken in BJ tournaments. If anyone doubts Ken's abilities I suggest they get a subscription to All In magazine and read Ken's column, Tournament Zone. There are many aspects to BJ, especially when playing against the house, AP or team...

    Blackjack team mates for AC

    Meeting "Normal" people in AC should be no problem. Sounds like you're on the right track. Keep written records and spend some time daily writing about your experiences, where the best comps are, best pen, most favorable games, etc. After spending so much time with Zen no wonder you're...

    Blackjack team mates for AC

    Why of why does every "counter" think they need camouflage when betting nickles? Self delusional? What kind of spread are you using anyway 1-40? You BR is limited but adds every month - that's good meaning you're on the right track but now - based upon the possibility to get more money in...

    Neteller is finished

    Can you elaborate? I'm not getting it...can you expand about Harrah's and MGM lobbying? Also since Harrah's is in the process of being sold to a private company will that affect anything?

    Cipher Warning

    Zen, you just like to stir the pot as it simmers don't you? Don't you know it's not nice to tap on the glass at the aquariums? You're not supposed to throw peanuts at the monkeys at the zoo? Did you pull the wings off flys as a child? Ken did the right thing by making mean Mr. Cipher...

    DD 10 vs dealer 9?

    Thanks for the link Sonny Out of curosity, do you know HOW to calculate the EV? Do you have any links about how the EV is calculated/programed? I mean it's nice to just flip a switch and get electricity but every once in awhile don't you just wonder HOW the juice gets to the source ;)

    Lost my temper with a pit boss

    Personally I'm 180 degrees the opposite of you. What AM did was admirable - something MORE people need to do. So what if the little lady just "gives" it back! All it takes for evil to flourish in this world is when good people stand by and do nothing. :flame: Charity, caring, compassion for...
