Hey Gloves! Great to see you back; I'm a big fan of your posts. I wish I would have seen your post a few hours earlier so that i could place the bet, but at 7:59 - 3rd your 8.5 point opinion is looking spot on (16-7). Edit: Could you give us some idea of the relative size of your bets? i.e...

The Gloves' Despite my previous post, I got bored this afternoon an threw a few bucks on the Titans +11... Final Score: Titans: 6 Chargers: 17 Result: Push Once again, gloves, you hit it right on the nose. I need to take my own advice (i.e., don't deviate from YOUR advice), ha.

Thanks Glovesetc. Thanks, Glovesetc., for all the great picks this season- I don't know how you do it but your record speaks for itself. I bet exactly what you recommend and I've been thrilled with the results (I got on the train at about week 7). Even your advice not to bet is great advice...

You found this info in a cookie? Could you explain this further?

Thanks Thanks to all for the tips. The flight list to wendover is especially great (nod to avs21); I had never even heard of wendover.

I recently moved to Helena, MT and it looks like I'll have to fly somewhere if I want to play BJ. Flight prices are about the same no matter where I go in the West (Vegas, Reno, Denver, etc.). I figure I'll buy in for about $2K and play green. Question: Assuming a reasonable weekend...

Beta Test I think this game looks awesome. It's not really blackjack but I like introducing the competitive angle to card counting. Id love to give it a try, and I signed up for the 'online beta tester'. Is there anything else I can do? thanks, Cheif ([email protected])

That's on the spread (Colts -4, Packers -6)? Thanks for all the picks, Chief

Moneyline Each team will have their own moneyline. Usually the favorite's moneyline will be negative (e.g. -150, meaning $100 bet will net you about $67) and the underdog's line will be positive. Great picks again, Moo; I took your suggestion on GB and Detroit. Thanks and keep 'em...

Plug for ChefJJ I just wanted to give ChefJJ some props on his blog. From beginner to advanced it was really interesting and informative and very well written. Check it out: http://hothandcraps.blogspot.com Thanks ChefJJ -chief

My question is how everyone thinks about the more elaborate sports bets (parlay, if bet, reverse, round robin) - Are they good? when? I'm comfortable with the mechanics of each bet; I was hoping you all have an opinion as to if and when they are good bets. thanks in advance, the Chief

A friend of mine is insisting that splitting 10's against the dealer's 6 is a 50/50 decision. I remembered that that wasn't the BS, but i couldn't explain why. Could someone spell out the logic of the BS in this situation? (Also, why not to split 9's vs. 7, if possible. thanks)

Bots I was hoping to use proxies to hunt each casino several times. Anyone have any experience with this or any idea of the security they use to prevent this?

BJ bots? I'm about to start the bonus hunt; it's good to hear that it's working for others! Does anyone know of any bots that have been created to auto-play these sites? I saw one post refering to a built-in feature at one of the casinos, but this doesn't seem like it would be a difficult...

While I completely agree that betting systems do not improve your EV, I cant understand why no one can bear to admit that they do not hurt your EV either. Blackjack hands are completely independant of each other just as the hands are completely independant of the bet. EV is calculated with...
