I play $5 min, 6deck tables and I'm currently playing with a bankroll of only $1,000, which I know is no where near enough to make much with a reasonably low ROR. So I ran a sim with CVCX with a much lower than ideal spread (1-5) to see if I could get my ROR fairly low with such a low bankroll. The results were a ROR of 11.6% and win/hour of $3.80. Obviously not a great win rate but my primary goal right now is not to make money, but to enjoy blackjack and practice in a casino setting without losing my bankroll. I will have a much larger bankroll in 6 months or so and will increase my spread then.
I have two reasons for posting this:
First, I want to make sure my sim is correct. I just got CVCX and am still learning to use it. I would really appreciate it if someone could take the time to run a sim to double check my work. I included all the details of my strategy and table conditions below.
Second, assuming my sim is correct, does it make sense for me to do this? If I'm willing to take an EV decrease, spreading 1-5 instead of 1-12 makes sense right? Remember, I'm not trying to earn money to pay for college tuition, just want to play with atleast SOME positive EV and a ROR around 10% or lower.
Strategy: Wong's hi/low, Sweet 16, Full deck resolution, Truncate count, Wong in/out at +1, Spread 1-5 (TC1=$5, TC2=$5, TC3=$10, TC4=$15, TC5=$20, TC6=25)
Table: 6deck, H17, $5min, DAS, Double any 2, LS, 75% pen, No RSA
I got Win Rate of $3.80/hour and ROR 11.6%.
Any suggestions and a confirmation sim would be greatly appreciated! If I left anything out please ask.
