    RoR on Two Hands

    Hi, So some background before the question. I've got a 3000 dollar bankroll at the moment and am unable to play a 5 dollar minimum table because, with the absence of surrender and H17 ridden casinos around me, I would be left with upwards of 40% RoR. At a 3 dollar table with the still crappy...

    So, in a perfect world with no heat, I could spread to 4 x 15 at my max bet and have substantially less risk? I could have sworn I read that to have the same EV you have to have more over two hands than you have on one.

    Two things ... First thing is here. I know I am asking the question so I shouldn't be giving criticisms but I just wanted to point this out. Also, I don't know and cannot explain how but I do know that playing 3 x 20 instead of 1 x 60 has a much lower EV. By the same token, playing 2 x 30 also...

    Ramp

    Sorry to reopen this but I actually just downloaded the software and thought it might be worth mentioning this. I remember seeing on a different thread that an active member said that a max bet should be out on the table by TC +4. This is quite contrary to what you said. Anywho, when I plugged...

    Ramp

    Hey all, back again with another question :) I'm 17 and understandably have a small bankroll (about 1200 and I'm not playing for real until it's about 2500). That being said, my unit is $5 and my spread is 1-12. My current betting ramp is +1=10, +2=25, +3=40, +4=55, +5 and above=60. I feel bad...

    Rounding Counts

    Hey guys, So I've recently started playing with CV and I love it! However, I've always played on the safe side with counts, meaning that if I've discerned the TC as being 1.5 or 1.75, I would play as if the count was not yet 2 and was still 1. I noticed that CV rounds it up, so mathematically...

    How do you guys do it...

    How long have you been counting? As you guessed, it comes naturally after a certain time. I've been counting for maybe 2 months now, and keeping the count is almost as second nature as breathing. Just practice, practice, practice!

    "Perfect Blackjack"?

    I've been studying counting for probably a month and some odd days now and I've just now begin to look at Risk of Ruin with certain bankrolls/betting/etc. In the majority of posts, it mentions that the percentages only apply if the player plays "Perfect Blackjack". What constitutes perfect...

    I18

    Quickie, Are I18 indices applicable to wide ranges of rules/circumstances? E.G. H17, S17, 6 decks v 8 decks, etc. simply put, should I ALWAYS be using them?
