    Possibilities of using "legitimate cover".

    Heh heh. There's already been some discussion about that! Our associate Priest's late husband used to put all his blackjack winnings into the church till. He was wealthy from his accounting business anyway. Had what his wife called a "photographic memory" and did quite well at 21. Of course back...

    Possibilities of using "legitimate cover".

    The more I think about the less sure I am that using a real church as cover is all that easy. Would take a serious effort to teach the flock to walk in step. First thing that comes to mind are loud mouths who would say something at the table like; "Hey Irish how's that card counting...

    Possibilities of using "legitimate cover".

    It was Friday last week and of all the odd things that could happen received a phone call from my Protestant priest. He was asking me if I was to going to join the church group to go out to the Sacramento area on a fun gambling trip. Sounded like he needed help filling out the bus... That's MY...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    Herein lies the problem: Cash out rules are a real bitch on these "free chips". The maximum cash you can withdraw is low even if you win through the roof. While all bonuses have a "blank x the bonus" rule the free chip ones are especially bad. Some have a "99 x the bonus" and such. This...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    All due respect i don't think we're on the same page here. 1. This is online gambling with the so-called "free chips". Which are, by definition (someone already mentioned) so filled with disqualifiers as to be almost worthless. Good practice though before depositing real money and getting the...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    Luck is all we have sometimes. the reason i find face up 21 interesting isn't the odds per se. More that when i get lucky I get REALLY lucky. There is a rational reasoning here besides "luck". If I am fortunate enough to get a bunch of two card twenties against dealer stiffs? especially on...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    Agreed the negative ev isn't so good. However I wonder how it compares to other online standard 21 games? After all I'm only playing the free bonuses. I think it could be a better deal than the others. At any rate I cashed out this am at just under 500 bucks.

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    Sleight, Didn't see what the wizard said was the house edge. Wish my printer was up and running as i would print out that strategy right away. Strange game! There definitely are some serious advantages. Like with face up cards you would double against dealer's ten showing if you knew...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    There's got to be some kind of strategy out there for this one. Similar I suppose to hole card technique. So far the past three hours it's been a topsy turvy ride. Up to 150, down to 15 back up to 90 down to 20 Am back up to 120 now all on the original bonus none of my own money. having a...

    Maybe someone can tell me if this is a treasure trove or not

    OK perhaps it should have gone into "online gambling" but here goes. Small bonus just for filling out an account and claim promotion code. About fifty bucks. All cards including dealer dealt face up. Ties to dealer lose. Natural pays even money. Double 9, 10,11 (perhaps others but probably...

    Single Deck at ThunderValley

    Seems to me the main problem (in beating it) is finding a heads up game. Once I found these kinds of tables I have always done well. But they fill up quickly and with even one other player in the game it screws the whole thing. She starts shuffling every two deals and there is no significant...

    Single Deck at ThunderValley

    It's the same as their competitor over at Cache Creek. It's a really schitty game there too though I've beaten it heads up with HUGE spreads. Dumb clucks up there let me play heads up and spreading large bets. Did well there in fact the last time but I may quit going there altogether. Except...
