I never play 6-5 BJ, but it was a busy saturday, no openings except an empty table at a single deck. It was called BJ Frenzy. BJ pays 6-5 BUT, DD at ANY time (4 card 11 ex.) DD after split, split 4 times, split aces once, and no even money. I gave it a try and won $200 1 on 1 in 1 hour, $10...

Yah it's all based on the dealer, I've seen some burn half the deck and I'll leave. But there's some where I can get 80% pen especially when u tip them.

I live in Reno and I usually go to GSR or Silver Legacy for DD. Silver Legacy made almost every table but one 6-5. Western Village does have the best single deck play, but tables are always full of kids bc of $2min bet and they're not open 24/7. Almost all big casinos will have $5min during the...

Yes nonstop, minus some bathroom breaks. And my loss limit would be $1000, but I couldn't win a hand to save my life. Losing my winning from all that work PLUS the other $1000 was just frustrating. USUALLY, I leave when I'm up about $300, because that always seem to be where I end up at. But...

I was playing at a $5 min table with 1-10 spread for about 4 hours. Bought in 300, and was up $400. It was getting late, but i tried winning a little more. I stayed for another hour, but lost all my winnings, my 300, AND another $1,000! I was playing too long to buy in more, and I was overall...

I've been playing DD recently and keep a side count of Aces. When there are a lot of Aces left (6 aces with 1 deck remaining for example) and the TC is -1 or higher I'll play 2 spots at minimum to try to catch the aces. If the TC raises with high count of Aces I'll stick with 2 hands and raise...

I play often at a casino and known as 'VIP'. I befriended most of the dealers and pit bosses. I don't sit there quietly with a water bottle staring at the cards all the time. I talk about sports (betting) life and so on. I've never been backed off.

I believe they can, but so far I haven't been. There was a time I even attempted to for fun haha at a small local casino. Min. bet $3 and my max bet was $50, SD, DDA2, 3-2 BJ, but did not get backed off. I recently played at the Nugget, heard the pitboss on the phone and say we have a card...

I'd recommend Reno, NV (where I live :) ) over Vegas. You can find $20+ rooms throughout the week, cheap tables and not being crowded (except Friday Saturday nights). Transportation wise, Uber, about 10-15 dollar rides. Buffets are as cheap as $8...

I was playing yesterday DD with a bunch of old people. They just love side bets and will always stand on S17's (horrible play). I don't like to believe their play affects me or the outcome, but I feel when the TC +2 and these players are hitting their hard 13's against the dealers 6 I get...

This week I was playing a DD with pretty good DP, about 85-90% My max bet is usually $75, at a nickel table by myself. The TC was at plus 7, it was getting good but i lost a hand at $75 then the TC was about plus 10. So i doubled my bet at 150 won, and again for the last hand while the count...
