What if I'm practicing with thousands of hands on the trainer? Wouldn't that show a resemblance to playing thousands of hands for real? I'm just trying to understand what you mean by short run

Is the strategy trainer on this site a good way to get a picture of what to expect at a table? If I count the exact same way and play perfect BS like I do on the trainer can I expect similiar results in a casino? I have been recordering myself playing it (hands, amount won/lost, win...

Considering Hi-Lo, we know that the running count has a different meaning depending on the decks left because it has to be converted to a true count. A running count of 10 for 5 decks left (true count +2) doesn't have the same impact as a running count of 10 for 2 decks left (true count +5)...
