    Advantage of High Cards

    Yeah, I didn't think that 'very good' meant 'Well done, just testing ...'

    Etiquette on loaning chips

    I see. Seeing that she was innexperienced, how does one set out what's what. How do you let them know what the deal is?

    Etiquette on loaning chips

    Hi I was wondering what the etiquette was on loaning chips. This young lady had 8,8 vs. 6 but it was her last chip. I tossed her a chip to split and she got another 8 on one. I tossed her another chip to split and she got another 8 on that. I tossed another and she got another 8 on that...

    Let's have a flutter

    I went to Palm Beach last Friday with friends after a night out at a resturant. Don't know why we ended up there or who suggested going to a casino (ahem!) but it seemed like a good idea at the time following a good meal at a good nearby restaurant and after lots of good wine. The place was...

    Splitting Tens and getting an Ace

    Ha ha! Yeah, cut the BS - that's not Basic Strategy, BTW - does anyone know the index?

    I wrote my patronizing comment before reading that last exchange; very impressive KJ.

    From where I'm sitting, that sounds like a great idea.

    Napoleons penetration getting worse

    That is now a rumour. Penetration sucks, there are 7 spots per table, it's crowded, so everyone is nicking your cards ... The only thing going for it are the fast dealers, then again this is watered down by them having to shuffle so often.

    Napoleons penetration getting worse

    Just come back from a night out on me tot; wife and kids away for the week and lets face it, when the cat's away the mice will play, BJ! Coming back to the point, started off at Napoleons but couldn't really sit down. The best penetration I saw after 40 mins of hanging around was 1.5 decks -...

    Confusion over index plays: CVBJ vs Gamemaster

    Which begs the question: Where do I get RA indices for High-Low (multi-deck, flooring)?

    Bet Riding

    What really pisses me off is when you get some comedian sitting (actually sitting) at the other end of the table to you (when you are the only other player) and who is not betting and is just waiting for the count to go up while you're flat-betting at the start of a shoe. That happened to me...

    Confusion over index plays: CVBJ vs Gamemaster

    I think you may be onto something there. One looks riskier than the other.

    Confusion over index plays: CVBJ vs Gamemaster

    I must admit that I'm a bit confused over the index plays given by Gamemaster in his blackjack school. The plays I'm using are those from CVBJ: Wong Complete High-Low. Yet while some of these are the same as those given by Gamemaster, many differ - by a considerable amount. Take A2 vs 4...

    Halves 0.06% vs. HiLo 22% (vs. Zen?)

    Don't have the page no, chapter on Halves, in amongst the blurb, look out for 0.06%. Cheers mate

    Halves 0.06% vs. HiLo 22% (vs. Zen?)

    Hi all I wonder if any of you could answer the following. In the Halves chapter in Professional Blackjack, Wong says that Halves offers 0.06% against HiLo's 22%; the question is percentage what? Now I think this is SD in estimating advantage but I'm not sure. What does this mean? I...
