    What if the count never improves?

    I've played 6d KO at the red chip level when the crowd starts to thin out with only three other people at the table and simply stopped betting when the count tanked, then jumped back in when the count went back up without ever leaving my seat. At that level I really think all it takes is a "I'm...

    Basic Strategy surrounded by not BS

    There's a pretty good discussion of this fallacy on page 117 of KO blackjack for anyone who has the book and is wondering about it.

    Gulf Coast casinos

    I'll probably be playing monthly. My weekly spot is Philadelphia, because it's so close.

    Gulf Coast casinos

    I would I play in Philadelphia almost weekly, but I want to check out Biloxi, Gulfport and the New Orleans area. My schedule for being able to make it down there will be highly variable.

    Memory Technique for Basic Strategy

    It all depends on how your brain best memorizes or organizes information. I have a job where I have to be able to absorb and recall large amounts of information very quickly and accurately. As such, I have spent time (and my job actually provides some training on this) determining how I best...

    KO Full and the Illustrious 18

    I was unable to find any reference to splitting 10s in the book. If you could point me to the correct page, I would appreciate it. The deviation at the IRC is suggested for 12 v 4,5,6 and 13 v 2,3 in the KO preferred version. I was using the "Full" matrix on page 164. Should I just use the...

    KO Full and the Illustrious 18

    I started learning all the 6D KO Full indices. I noticed that the book doesn't provide numbers for all of the Illustrious 18 deviations. I decided to make my own numbers for the missing deviations. Please double check me. 10,10 v 5 = +10 10,10 v 6 = +4 12 v 5 = -19 12 v 6 = -13...

    Online casino with .11% advantage!!!

    Does anyone know if they offer comp points? I looked at the website and couldn't find any information on this. At other online casinos I have played, I have had about a 1000-1 ratio on comp points. I played $4880 at a casino today, and they credited me with 4.88 comp points which were good...

    doubling bet concept

    Someone has probably already posted this elsewhere, but it's worth another read. http://wizardofodds.com/gambling/bettingsystems.html Homer, the system you are proposing is called the Martingale system. Read what this guy has to say about the Martingale before you go to the casino. Good...

    Exit Strategy

    I was using a very similar strategy today, but I didn't have very good results. I was playing a 6 deck game for a while using KO Preferred, spreading 1:10, and sitting out at the exit points suggested in the book (22, 17, 12). I was surprised that I didn't even get a second look as I just sat...

    Even Money???

    Just cleaning up some rounding errors Using your scenario of 100 hands at $100 each, I believe one would be correct in expecting the following returns without taking insurance and without counting. Please correct any errors. 1D [1-(15/49)]150*100 = $10,408.16 or 104.08 units 2D...
