I played what I thought was an interesting hand while practicing on Verite with complete Zen count using half deck estimation. Suddenly I had an early running count of -9 and looked down at 12v dealer 5. She had only dealt half a deck. I barely use any negative indices, but 12v5 (-2) and 12v6...

What I meant to ask but forgot or kinda worded terribly- is it ok to just make up my own bet ramp like this? I mean, I don't know what the hell I am doing when it comes to this- I just created the amounts because they felt right. Is this costing me? Is it imperative to generate optimal bets with...

This observation by Don Schlesinger in chapter 9 of BJ Attack made my eyeballs bugout and I gulped hard at the prospect of grinding for the next year unrewarded, after what i know will be a herculean effort. It came on the very next page from the charts that had riled me initially, scores so...

Greetings. I have been practicing a lot and deem myself worthy to hit the felt again using balanced Zen count. I concerned about my betting ramp. What is the procedure for determining the optimal ramp for my game? I have not run any sim before and only only purchased the counting software so...

3 sessions dood? Cmon seriously? What do you possibly think is "going on there"? LOL Where are these $25 six deckers you speak of? I dont see them. High limit room is 50$ mins no? While Im in this thread I have to ask- Are one of you the little man I have dubbed the "little mole man?"...

would you elaborate on "careful" and maybe even discuss a minimum spread for 6 decks vs 8 decks? I am and will be increasingly interested in the tolerance these casinos will have for my action when it increases. Also there tolerance for me camping there playing red to green for as much as 25...

Of course he wasnt winning. This horrible human exists as a ploppy- i feel for your pain as this specimen seems very ill indeed and not even tolerable for a brief period. Thank you for taking the time to write about the moron. It brings me piece of mind to realize there is the possiblility that...

use the betting ramp for one deck dealt till you get to 2. Better yet if it is One deck dealt RC 9 Two deck RC 13 use 11 at 1.5 or some close estimate.2deck is RC 12 i believe? I play mostly 8 deck

Huh? I play BJ almost every frickin day and lose over a thousand in a session all the time. Even as my graph inches upward I get slaughtered all the time. But you, somehow miraculously, on your stinky boats, with 4 decks cut off , BARELY lose at all, EVER, while relieving them of large amounts...

No. I don't think you would make money. 90 bucks or 2X60 is as high as you should dare go assuming you want to keep that cash -or possibly lose most of it and give up in disgust. You dont have enough money to start those $15 shoes from the start. I am in the same situation- after the...

Bad wording on my part. They still cover the shoe but no longer do the cards dissapear into the tables butt crack. They are piled up in a discard rack nice n proper.

Parx always has left a bad taste in my mouth when I leave. Granted this may be because my roll is only 15k and even a young spry chicken like myself can grow weary of backcounting the 25 min 6 deckers. What really pisses me off is the covered discard tray. Well my friends, this is no more!! Now-...

i wanna be on the ignore list with KJ and the Gorilla so here goes... Look noob. You are an embarrasment. Let me see if I get this straight. Your going to attack a $25 min table with 10 grand? 10 grand is peanuts. nothing at all. Get it? I re-split 6,6,6 yesterday and doubled two of them. My...

dont upset her Keep in mind, she won't like it if you wait till your not behind her to wong in.

Those numbers seem a bit scary... to be fair you are spreading 1-16 so 8 is hardly your 'max bet.' Regardless you are getting trounced. Are you steaming at all? I do this sometimes. I will aggressively INCREASE my BET SPREAD when I near a sessions inevitable demise OR when I have dug a hole. Now...
