    bj techiques

    wong out in other words,he's asking: is there a way to burn cards in a negative count to get to a positive count by playing two hands. I wouldn't think so because you double your negative ev playing 2 hands in a neg count. Best thing is to wong out till next shuffle if the count gets too bad...

    MGM Mandalay Bay merger

    MGM Mandalay Bay merger. This can't be good for cc'ers and competition on the strip. Will all the properties involved have basically all the same games, rules, penetration, 6-5, csm, etc.? Any thoughts, opinions, propaganda or just plain old BS on what this merger will do to bj on the strip?

    It Pays to DISCOVER......

    What is a discovery card? yes it's a credit card. get the first one in your real name, then get the second in a fake name. I don't have discover, but get pre-approved apps. My favorite name is Adolph Oliver Busch.

    Also need help for the 8-8 split vs 10 plz

    It doesn't matter what you have. play a few hundred thousand hands on your puter and you'll see. practice, practice, practice. learn all the indexes & try different spreads. I like to practice with the same table minimums and conditions(penetration)as what I play. I even tried 50% penetration...

    Very interesting web video

    web video no one pointed out 800 cameras and 2 people watching them, that's a lot of channels. Always when I see pictures of the surveillance room,I always look first to see how many people are actually watching the monitors. the second lady didn't look like a phd in abnormal psychology to me...

    Ever gotten a 'tell' from a dealer?

    oh yeah most obvious ones in the red chip tables when the dealer sees almost no one win money. Dealer will say you sure you want a hit after you scratch yourcards and he has gotten a peak at the top card. does that make sense? The sequence: player indicates hit. dealer peaks dealer asks "you...

    Green Action !

    yep!!! Buy in at a $10 min table and dealer's looks surprised when you ask for some green with red, then calls checks play on green chips, but nothing when $40 in red out there. weird. tempted to stack up $100 in red to see if dealer calls that. hehe.

    TOKES

    Re: "True artist" - are you joking?! no penetration, no patronage from me. don't you get tired of showing 100 ploppies in a row how to tuck their cards under the bet? How much do the $5 flat bettors really tip? What if you're dealing black and a whale who isn't tipping complains to the host...

    tokes

    a toke every shuffle would really cut into your ev. whatever advantage you get counting, you're giving away. I only toke occasionally as it gives me the munchies.
