    Would you play?

    One more rule you forgot to mention.. The game is also NLS. And the Double down rule is DD 9, 10, and 11 unless they have changed it recently. And yes 21forme, the shoe game feet away is 5/6 DAS.

    Twenty-something hits Presque Isle Downs for half-million at BJ

    Wow Unless your counting all your hours as a continuous session, I must say that the probability of not having a losing session in that time must be miniscule. How many sessions have you played since last spring? Paddler.

    Twenty-something hits Presque Isle Downs for half-million at BJ

    For sure I had luck on my side, although twice I came close to busting out. But after my first dip, I actually knew what I was doing and it brought in some money (15k). Ever since its been routine to gradually extract EV from the felts. Unfortunately my aggressive spreads have me 86'd in half my...

    Twenty-something hits Presque Isle Downs for half-million at BJ

    No hole cards in my area and minimal tracking opportunities. Bankroll growth was due to 1-30 spreads and sometimes more depending on betting levels and heat.

    Twenty-something hits Presque Isle Downs for half-million at BJ

    My Grandparents are definitely well off, but still very much alive. As for the BR, $2000 turns into $55000 after about 1300 hours of 6D H17 games. Not to mention over-betting the bank until it reached around $15000. Paddler.

    Twenty-something hits Presque Isle Downs for half-million at BJ

    Hey Billy C1 I'm barely in my twenties and I don't think I'm a poor money manager. I think I do an adequate job of playing to my bankroll of just over $55000. After all, its not exactly money managing we do at the tables, its ammunition control and waiting for the juicy TC's to start firing...

    Bully Boy pit bosses

    Don't dis the loonie "thousands of Loonies. That same young pit boss then yelled out "no more"and booted me from the table, so sweet, and then they snapped my picture with a flash camera as I walked away." For a while there we were ahead of your greenback. And I'm sorry for the bad treatment...

    An Introduction

    Not a bad idea I made the mistake of going straight to the tables before learning cover and proper spread, and the casino pegged me as a counter right away. Luckily they were nice to me and didn't evoke any counter-measures until I was playing a positive ev game. Luckily I had multiplied my...

    An Introduction

    Welcome Welcome to the faster paced game of blackjack. This game is more of a rush than good old poker in my opinion. I'm in the same situation as you in regards to age. I've been doing this for 17 months now and still more than a year away from be able to play in vegas. I've been told it's...
