I just picked up "blackbelt in Blackjack" from the library (searched their online site, found out they had a GOOD book, unlike the "beat the casino every time" books, went the next day, made a library account). So far im about 100 pages into it. I won't lie, I skipped around seeing as how I knew...

I think some of you are just a little too paranoid...

mind sharing the love (money)? lolz good thread

for $5 games? Thats weird if they have both 6 and 8's on random tables. I'm guessing one of them (8 deck) is on the over/under tables maybe??? I guess I'll have to find out monday or something.

Mystic in Shakopee is where I play at. Special tables surrender over/under (haha I can't even remember what its really called) betting? reg tables $5-25 minimum (unless you go into the "high limits" room) $5 tables, $199 max, 6 decks (I swear they had 8, but I went last week and I could have...

Lol I am a "beginner" if you call, lbut a lot of peope underestimate a lot of kids (like me, im only 18). I get stupid looks all the time when I sit down with $200-400. Most teens are there to just have a good time, and not to become card counting sharks. With that still said, it truely does...

I can only count if I'm the only one at the table (which i try and be) and then ill usually lose count after 9 hands or so. I only bring my bets up to $10 assuming I already have more than I came in with. I'm more of a casual player looking to make a few pennies over the long run. Its just...

See that's the thing. I usually don't play long enough to feel tired or hungry. I've had a few times where I have $150 (started with $40) and then turned around and lost $50 of it, because I kept playing. Right now, that's actually a decent amount that I could have added to help start my...

I've been studying blackjack for a while and have started going to a nearby casino almost everyday for the last 2 weeks. I have a question though that no book really will answer... When do you call it quits? I'm not talking about losing, but winning. I know you should never quit if your...
