Yes, and after taking another look at the program, I've found some rounding problems which are going to affect the results. This system wouldn't work at a casino anyway, because they're not going to let you bet < $1. I'm trying to fix the rounding problem right now.

Once you win, you go back to the original bet.

I somehow skipped over writing the second bet as 1.5, the third bet is 2.25 I'll get around to getting it to calculate the total number of spins in a while.

The nearest casino is 150 miles away. I wouldn't be proficient enough to cover just the fuel getting there, I believe.

I can keep up with the dealer in CVBJ fairly well, but I'm wondering how fast a dealer can deal in a casino. I tried to find a video of some blackjack being played, but couldn't really find any. How fast does a hand go by if there's 3-4 players at a table? Do other players agonize over...

I've been at this a week, going full tilt at learning to count, because I want to be great at this and I know it takes a lot of practice to be able to keep up with the count, be able to add my card values together without losing the count, remember BS, and look like I'm not a card counter. The...

After doing some calculations, I think we're headed off to Lake Charles. If we go on the weekend to Port Aransas it will be $20 a person just to get on the ship + gas. For a group of four, driving in a hybrid to Lake Charles is only $10 a person for gas. So, it's cheaper just to go to Lake...

I was quite bored and decided to program a simulation for Martingale betting systems on a 00 roulette wheel. I've been messing around with it just for the hell of it. After tinkering with it, it seems that the Martingale system of doubling your bet to cover your losses is fairly well hopeless...

Would you recommend back-counting an 8-deck game on the cruise for a first timer? I've been to Vegas once, before I ever knew blackjack and I know the casino environment can be distracting. So, if my goal is to back-count an 8-deck to see if I can keep up in a real casino, wong-in when the...

So, let's say my game was a real one. I would have been right to leave at -1 and just find a new game, correct?

I totally mis...typed that last message. I meant to ask about the texas treasure casino cruises in Port Aransas you mentioned.

Alright, I've been teaching myself to count for the past week using CVBJ. I decided to take my practice to the kitchen table and I managed to lose for the first time. I dealt myself from 6 decks and the game started alright, then took a quick nose dive and I started losing my minimum bet. The...

What are the riverboat tables like? Are there any 1, or 2D games? I notice they offer $3 minimums on weekdays. That would be a pretty good place to start, but what are the rules for that game?

I'm just learning to count and the closest casino to me is in Eagle Pass, TX. Has anyone played there? What are the rules? How many decks? Table min? What kind of heat should I expect? Thanks. *edit* I'm not sure, but it seems that they don't even offer blackjack, because they can't play...
