    First Backoff

    sounds good, I was spreading 1-10 on the $2 table so don't know if they cared or not, now I will be playing at the $3 table since I hated the 8D shoe for the $2 min.

    First Backoff

    yup, the casino I am going to on Tuesday has RFID chips and they hit the button before each hand - is that bad for a card counter? Is it easier for them to find out you are spreading too much?

    Worst negative variance you have experienced?

    I'll try again, lol. You measure it with max bets since when you are betting max there must be a good TC meaning you should have the advantage, and to lose 50 hands at an advantage is much worse than losing 17 hands at an advantage. You would not lose the minimum bets as a measure of...
