Hi, I am brand new to the forum and it looks like the forums contain a wealth of information (i have spent a few hours browsing various threads). It all looks very excellent!!
I have a small question regarding bet variation.
Up to this point I have been playing a 1-12 spread i.e. 1,2,4,8,10,12 for TC +1,+2,+3,+4,+5,+6. I have an (arbitrary) bankroll of 600 units (taken from business profits) plus 251 units of winnings = 851.
I am thinking of changing to a 1-10 spread in the order of 1,3,6,10,10,10 - doing some calculations (using results from simulations from bjstats.com) in xls, seems that my expected unit return per hour would be about the same, but my gut feel is that the change in spread would adversely impact on my variance and thus RoR?
Background on my game:
I have been playing for just over six months:
4D or 6D, S17, DAS No surrender 70-80% pen
count using Hi-Low Method with I18 indeces
Hours played: 223 (using either $5-$60 or ($5)$10-$120 standard unit)
Status: +251 units (1.13 units/hour)
Hands played: approx 15,000 avg 70 hands/hr (often engage in heads-on play)
Would welcome comments that anyone may have, as to whether it would be smart to do this or not.
