Is there a form of card counting where you'll go AGAINST perfect strategy depending on what the current count is ? example : If the count is +15 and you have a 15 against a 10 , i'd rather stay than hit. compared to if the count was -15 and you had a 15 against a 10. (you'd rather...

I'm with Bruno.. It's all people do here on these forums is criticize you if the odds are against your favor. They just look at stats and nothing else. There must be 0% creative thinking here. Many people continue to win successfully (like myself) by varying their bets and choosing to...

Play a blackjack simulator with my exact setup before claiming nonsense & hypotheticals if it works or not.. remember to stop at $500 each time...and get a fresh shuffle for next session.

I never did go back to the drawing board. Just revised tactics for the noobs out there. And I say you're wrong for saying its incorrect. Maybe a little deceiving, but still correct.

You start with $4000 Bet Amount | Total amount lost if hand lost | Total amount won if hand won 1.) $50 | -$50 | +$50 2.) $100 | -$150 | +$50 3.) $150 | -$300 | +$0 4.) $200 | -$500 | -$100 5.) $300 | -$800 | -$200 6.) $500 | -$1300 | -$300 7.) $1000 | -$2300 | -$300 8.) $2000 | -$4300 | -$300...

Winning 5 straight hands happens very infrequently. I'm starting another thread now in this section called "Another Modified Martingale".. Lemme know what u guys think without bein a buncha debbie downers.

Is it even possible or no ? Maybe on a stormy day ? If known anywhere in NJ or PA, please specify.

I agree more with azbj .. it is pretty rare. Even at +10 , losing 5 in a row is quite rare.

good detective work , sherlock. and good luck with the nerd tactics...look how far it's gotten you. Most people waste their mental energy trying for a perfect count , which is why they fail in the long run.

Basically what your asking is how 'just card counting' would prevent losing so many consecutive hands in a row. 1) First of all, if I knew the count was generally around -10 or worse (-15) ...I'd be more inclined to hit on 14's , 15's, 16's ...knowing the chance of smaller cards coming up...

Try paying attention next time. You could just as easily say this is a 'type' of card counting. Since somewhat of a martingale type approach is used in counting as well. no, but you could get off your soapbox. You obviously posted to try to stand out like you really know what your talking...

I'm baaaaaaaaaack.... Long term negative expecation if ONLY martingale is used. My new system is a 'generalization' of the current count along with martingale. So , a bit of a combination of the 2. Lets face it, even if you're a perfect card counter at times it's a complete waste & your...

So why do they say its a 49% chance then ? when playing 1 on 1 vs. the dealer... when playing perfect strategy. When in fact its never that way....? Its usually 70% dealer advantage most of the times...

Yea , but if you do play it perfectly throughout the whole shoe... Is it really suppose to be that 49% chance each and every shoe.. or is that just crap Dealers try to tell us ? I've never really had the chance to try it out myself. maybe I should..

When playing Basic Strategy to the max, and if your 1 on 1 with the dealer the whole time... what if you screw up on one hand out of the whole shoe ? (for instance, if you forget to split 3's against a 4 ) Does that completely screw up our 49% chance...and make it into completely...
