;) I'm stickin with the "Dumb-Ass" guy theory

Lot of the posters in here think there might be a reason for some of his play. If I were a betting man, I would bet he was just a dumb-ass, with a little money, trying to impress someone. (more dollars than cents)

I have been to Argosy, that is the one I mentioned with the bad rules. I have not been to the others. Horseshoe is about 1/2 west of there.

Hi New-B I am not trying to be a smart-ass or anything, but if having 4 shots of vodka every 30 minutes doesn't affect your counting, you may not be a really good counter. Most people don't think a few drinks affect their driving either. But, back to point, none of the casinos in Indiana have...

I noticed that too, I think some people look way too deep for some kind of a quotion, or mathmatic formula to make something easy look complex. The dealer is either going to bust or not, that's why counters count, and understand the best times to do certain things. It doesn't matter if you have...

Just follow the basic strategy charts. What makes the difference what the odds are of the dealer busting? it's all calculated in basic strat. If you stand on a 16, you're not betting that's enough to beat the dealer, you're betting the dealer will bust. Your odds of winning by standing on a 16...

Snorky I understand what you mean. I have coached basketball for over thirty years. A few yrs back I wasn't enjoying it anymore. The "ends" suddenly stopped justifying "means" Although I was making a very good living at it, it just wasn't fun anymore. For 3 yrs I vested my time in something...

IcyM I like third and first base just because I can see all the cards easier. (the middle is kind of like watching a tennis match) Since most players that think they need a certain seat are ploppies, the P.B's won't think anything about it if you move. (mainly because it doesn't have anything...

Vegas has lots of different little rules to better their edge. Mainly, only play 3-2 B.J. (not 6-5 ) and look for good penetration. some won't allow re-splitting aces, restrictions on doubling, no D.D. after splitting in some places. You should practice on line untill you memorize the basic...

Counting DOES give you an advantage, untill you can master that, you will always lose in the long run. That's why they it A.P. (advantaged players)

If you have played one game of B.J. then you have played enough to "win/lose" money as you say. If you don't count, and more importantly, understand the math and logic of counting, you will always lose money. If you go to vegas as you say you want, you will only lose more money until you become...

If the count is right, I split, trying to get as much money on the table as possible vs. a 5 or 6

If you don't "count" the other players cards on the table, then you're not counting cards. Same with the CSM's. Just like the veiwers above wrote, You're not counting cards, you're using a betting system, (that will always bite you in the ass sooner or later.) don't you think that if a system...
