Cool Spreadsheet :grin:

Cool thanks I'll take a look at that. Do you know if the charts provide ev for if you are wonging? The calculators and charts I've seen so far never provide numbers for if you are wonging.

Thank you sir. I'll take a look at those. I've heard good things about casino verite. If I can get some money together I think I'll buy that.

Thats a good idea. I've been trying to convince some friends to learn to count so we can team up but they are lazy hah. If I can convince one of them to at least learn basic strategy and the red 7 indices I'll try that out.

Thanks for the info, I'm new to the game and don't know all the lingo yet hah. Any idea how I can get access to a simulator?

Yea it is a small market area. I don't think they are on to me yet, but I have felt a little uneasy at times. The casinos are small so I feel like if I stay more than an hour or so, it becomes kind of obvious what I am doing. Any tips on how to avoid this?

Hey there. I would play multiple hands, but the casinos I play at require you to bet double the table minimum if you play more than one hand. And my bankroll is very low so I want to bet as little as I can at the moment. But if you have the bankroll to play multiple hands, it seems like a...

Thanks for the posts guys. Yea I knew my bankroll was very low, but there isn't much I can do about that right now. Although I thought I might be alright right now with $380 b/c I'm always betting 1 unit and only playing when I have an advantage. Suppose I could get together some...

I'm trying to do some calculations and figure out my expected hourly win rate. I'm going to be wonging in at any positive count and wonging out when the count goes negative. Based on the rules at the casinos I'm playing, the edge the casinos have starts at about .5%. I figured I'd multiply...

Thanks for the post that was very helpful. As to the part about being able to play higher stake tables when backcounting, I was backcounting so I could just bet one unit at a time since every hand I play I'm playing at an advantage. I'm mainly doing this b/c I have a very low bankroll. I...

Anybody know a good book on wonging in? Also I was searching through the forums and saw people saying you should backcount two tables at the same time. I'm having trouble seeing how you would go about doing this. I find it hard enough to find a good spot to stand where I can see the cards...

Hey I'm new to counting so sorry if my question sucks hah. But wouldn't ratholing be easily spotted by the eye in the sky if they were watching you? Suppose the casino was monitoring you and keeping track of your play. They would be able to see how much you bought in for. And then they would...

What do you mean by shill lol? Looked it up on google, but I'm seeing a lot of different definitions.

Yea I got a blackbelt in blackjack about a month or so ago and started reading that. I've gone to the casino about 4 times now. I'm in school right now so I don't have a lot of time to read/play at the moment. Yea the thing was though, when I was wonging I was only betting 1 unit no matter...

So basically I gotta play the entire shoe and use a spread? Hmm I don't think I can afford that right now. Are there any ways I can avoid being caught backcounting?
