I understand the frustration.
I bought a course teaching basic Hi-Lo counting and decided it was too tough and not worth the effort.
I got a book called "Win Without Counting" and starting playing - I won 6 sessions in a row! Then I won 10 out 12 sessions - in just a couple of weeks I turned $200 into $2000. I thought I was hot sh*t! I made plans on how to quit my job and start my new life.
I went to Atlantic city with my new BR and a big dream - I won a couple sessions and then I could not win anything at all! I followed the indicators exactly, I went to casino after casino and this unbeatable system was now not working at all!
I was confounded as to why playing this system sometimes worked with computer games, but always won in the casino, well now it didn't even work there and I lost a lot of money.
I experimented with many many systems and methods - Dahl, Silverthorne, Sailu, positive, negative, combo progressions, and tried tweaking each one, with CVBJ and also in casinos.
My most sucessfull run was with this method: Bet 1 unit until one of the following happens: 1) I lose 4 in row or 2) I bust twice in row or 3) dealer gets 21 in any form, and then bet 3 and then 6 units. Playing like this over 6 months, I worked up to over $7000 in some 40 casino visits.
Anyone who has put his heart, soul, commitment and hard-earned money into researching and developing a new methodology and has applied it to make money simply cannot be dissuaded.
In my case, I would have been deeply offended and insulted if anyone had doubted me - how dare could you have the audacity to question my results when I turned a couple hundred into $7000 in less than 6 months! I had proof! I had repeatable results! I had CASH!
Well, guess what - my system stopped working. I refused to believe that the universe could be so cruel as to let me win all this money and then it did not work any more. I kept playing. I kept trying. The bankroll dwidled away.
I learned Hi-Lo and I am now studying AOII and Ace Prediction.
I still yearn for the quick and easy method although my yeanings are dwindling.
You must buy CVBJ from Qfit. Anyone who is serious about BJ uses this or is familiar with it - you can select any number of decks, players, burn cards, count distribution, DAS, RSA, H17, penetration,etc. It can made made to mimic actual casino conditions more accurately than anything else. There simply is no comparison to Hoyle.
I played with your system on CVBJ til 4:30 in the morning last night. I marched from a starting BR of $1000 and gave up at minus $400, losing a total of $1400 over 1997 hands! I have the actual playing logs that CVBJ keeps, as well as specific graphs and analysis of win rates, hand counts, streaks, etc, if anyone would like to see them. Another fantastic feature of CVBJ.
I would not invest any money in a casino with any method that was not consistently repeatable through thousands of hands played in CVBJ.
My last system tweaking - practicing on CVBJ I was able to win over 30 sessions in a row! Then it just stopped working.
Look at the charts of team player income by quarter in Blackjack Attack 3 - there are ups and downs - wins and losses - but over many sessions highly profitable.
Please practice on CVBJ, and have others do the same - if my results are just a fluke, well maybe I am the one guy on earth who cannot make your system work.
By the way, you can still be a successfull bookseller with a faulty system - Win without Counting and Dahls book are still available at bookstores today - again many methods can be applied and used to show a handsome profit, but because BJ is a negative expectation game, the hard cold statistics will eventually catch up you - that's why card counting, shuffle tracking and Ace prediction work - because they provide reliable indication of what is coming next - whether that information is general (the count, or the segment) or specific (which card is coming next).
I'm just a guy who has won and lost a lot of money and is still learning. There are many seasoned vets here (like Sonny) whose patiently communicated advise would be well heeded.
