I guess i missed the meet up :p?

Took me a week and a bit but i finally got there! :grin: Here goes the story: :rolleyes: Basicly i was telling my dad how i am practicing card counting and how it works etc. He was like "I can see how it improves your probability but i can't see it working in the long run, there is only...

I mean, say if i was following perfect BS, I was say TC of +3 or something, Dealer delt, I got 12 and dealer turned over a 3. Now i know that there is a strong possibilty that the dealer has a ten under his three and that another ten is likely to come. Should i carry on playing BS or should i...

Count in any casinos aslong as the tables arn't constantly full. Try go at just opening time or in the middle of the morning. Small casinos are sometimes better as well they usually don't have the CSMs and the dealers tend not to be as good and deal a bit more slower etc.

There's loads of Gala casinos spreak across the UK they dont use CSM's.

No i do agree. You may have an advantage over the dealer but you never know what cards are going to come, say you are on a TC of +6 (like i was when just playing by my self yesterday). I put a nice stack of chips down, i get a 4 and a 5, dealer gets king. I obviously hit, i get a jack...

Honestly the first time you walk into a casino and win quite a bit they probably wont care. If you keep going back and taking alot thats when you should start hiding your chips. I mean dependent on which casino you go too, people win in the £1000's legitly even 10'000s, so you walking away...

Funny on the gala website it still says "Non smoking tables on request" lol. Think they need to update that! Actually i most probably will miss smoking at the table, i mean its very true when the count starts getting low, you can go have a smoke, get refreshed and come back into hopefully a...

No I'm not asuming anything. I am just saying that could of been why they didn't withdraw the money out of their banks. Because I'm quite sure most gamblers don't fill in a tax return or w/e!

Yes they can. They tax everything here, i know for sure! My dad is in the 40% tax bracket and absolutly everything he makes money on he HAS to declare it. No matter what it is. (Dead link: http://www.gamblingtherapy.org/ShowThread.aspx?ID=512414) look at that forum. He is talking about how...

EVERYTHING you make money on is taxed. Shares, bonds, inhertience even the bank interest they give you depending on the tax bracket you are in!

Well they wouldn't of wanted to put it in their banks because mr tax man would of taken a nice sum out of it! So say they won say 100,000 stuck it in their bank, the tax man (in england anways) would have take 40% (40,000) off that. So you would be left with only 60,000 thats most likely why!

Well this is how it went for me usuing the red 7 count: First ever count: 1:12 Minutes count down correctly 52 deck of cards! (Terrible) Best attempt this evening after practicing 2 hourish: 42:00 seconds!! Usually getting around the 45 second mark now counting down a full 52. Still not...

I have heard good and bad things about The red 7 count. I have ordered Arnolds book and another one that mentions and explains The Red seven count. All i really want to know is, i am not wasting my time using and mastering this count? I am hoping to not necceserly make a living out of...

Wait, sorry this is a comment for the previous message of how do you get comps even if you win. Don't you get comps wether you win or lose? Say you bet £20 and you either win or lose that bet, you will still get 2 comp points regardless of winning or losing? (saying 1 comp point every £10)?
