I don't know how to calculate the optimal amount. My first post was to mention that I thought I had read something somewhere on this very topic. I'm nowhere near being an expert in these matters, just a curious bystander. The actual experts, such as Don may be able give more detail. For what...

It occurs to me that references to RoR may not be that helpful. Perhaps a better way to think about it is this - With a fixed bankroll, there is a sweet spot, the Kelly Criterion, for your bet sizing; but most generally bet less than this to reduce RoR. If instead you bet more, not only do you...

But my point was it doesn't have to all be so ad hoc. There is, I think, a formula for RoR (or something broadly analogous to RoR) that factors in the amount of disposable income you are prepared to add to your bankroll each month. You expect your bankroll to grow at a rate that reflects both...

I vaguely recall reading a formal treatment of this kind of idea - I.e. how to account for a 'replenishable bankroll' in your RoR calculations. Could it have been in your book, Don? The basic idea being that ruin never truly comes if your bankroll is topped up once a month, so you can to some...

It's been quite a while since I've done anything with it, and I see from GitHub that Eric seems to be adding new features once again, but it sounds like it may not be what you are looking for. If you are a C++ programmer, you may be able to use elements of it as a starting point for your own...

I remember encountering this issue a while ago. I found that it was only the installation program itself that required the specific (old) .net version. I was able to grab and run the actual exe of the app (though this meant the help files were not found). This was under win 10, but I assume 11...

And I've received an email notification for the reply I received.:)

Just posted a message without getting a server error. Has a fix been applied?

Thanks. If any kind of reset is required to get the emails working again, please make sure they don't revert to including the text of the PM in the emails, which I think may be the default. It's something you changed for us previously -...

You can see in your account preferences whether or not you have it enabled (as I do). For what it's worth, it looks to me like the server error message indicates that the browser is timing out a response from the server and thus assuming that the action failed, whereas in fact it is either just...

Are you also not receiving email notifications of new messages? I'm not, and I wonder if the two issues may have a common source.

For what it's worth, I've revisited my CA code and generated the following BS table for the 6D, full early surrender case - (The player edge comes to +0.579743857%:)) S17 ENHC DOA DAS SPA1 SPL3 ES Hard | Dealer's up card hand | 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10...

When attempting to post or take other actions connected with 'conversations', we are getting "Server Error. Please try again later." Please don't, as there will likely be no error and we are all producing duplicate posts when we retry. You should be able to verify that your action has...

I've PM'd you. Got an error msg, but am going to assume the PM has reached you!:)

Hey Gronbog; belated congrats on your book with Don. Another weirdness with the PMs is that I didn't get email notifications. It was a pure fluke that I happened to decide to take a look at the forum for the first time in ages and thus saw them (and this thread). Would the 'New Member' status...
