I don't think so with the amount you are playing with the amount.... CVBJ heat goes berserk when you place insurance on your max bet and causes it to resuffle. I just turn the thing off.

follow up ?... what is considered a low ror? i'm thinking 12.5%.... is 25% still low? how about 33%? just curious.

link and paragraph Here's the link that triggered my thoughts... http://www.blackjackforumonline.com/content/battleofbabies.htm and the paragraph Finally, the risk-adjusted method of analysis will give an unbalanced system an ability to bet far more accurately in all games than would...

I think I read this at the BJ forum online (article comparing Red 7, KO and Hi Lo). Sorry can't link it here at work... workplace filtered the site out. There was a paragraph or two reaching about how an advantage maybe different depending on where you reached the pivot (early in shoe vs...

Count down a deck of cards, a pair at a time, under 25 seconds. Practice that like a half hour - hour a day. Practicing counting backwards and forwards in your mind at work, driving, watching tv, etc. Get Casino Verite Blackjack and play at the fast settings (dealer speed high, dealer...

what's a schill? sounds like a casino spy...

Wish I could be humbled and walk away with 400. I feel ya. I sucked on my first outing and was wondering if I should use an Ace/5 count. Anyways, keep at it. Practice counting a single deck to under 25 sec. Get CV blackjack and set it to the fastest settings. It worked for me.

That's the problem... there's too many good books out there. I think I will go with BJA.

Already read the Blackbelt and KO... I was thinking of getting Play Blackjack Like the Pros or Blackjack Blueprint. I was thinking of Blackjack Attack also since I like playing around with CVCX and wonder what all the terms mean. Any suggestions?

Three losing seshs and two winning seshs for me... but I'm just starting out. Sonny, Sagefrog - how do you guys play? bet spreads, wong in/out, shoes/sd, etc.... thanks for sharing your charts.

On CVCX there's an option to do 2 hands but it's for all counts only. But doesn't have the option to say play 1 hand all counts except for certain counts above an EV. Would be a cool feature though. Thanks.

I DVR'd Beating Vegas on National Geographic and found the show interesting. Makes me want to order an MIT tshirt for Vegas. Anyways, they featured what's a team composed of the following roles. The Backcounter The Signaller The Big Player The Gorilla Isn't the backcounter and the...

Suppose you reach a count greater than the pivot. By CVCX that's the time to go max bet. However, I have only one game in my town and don't really want to generate unwanted heat. So I was thinking to split my max bet to two hands at half my max bet on those favorable counts. What...

Had an experience yesterday when someone was calling me out on my basic strategy play. He was telling me I was taking the dealers 'bust' cards when I hit on hard 16s on 7> except for ls'ing and splitting 99s. Furthermore, since I joined the table early shoe he said my hand was f-ing up the...

of bj players that count cards? I haven't ran into another AP'r but of course, I only do the cruise casinos in Florida/Georgia and play $5 tables. Is it more common in LV?
