Does anybody know which Vegas casinos are using them?

Thanks for the advice, everyone!!!!!! Mr. Bill

The following link http://wizardofodds.com/blackjack/vegas.html gives me some of the info I'm looking for, but I was wondering if there was something somewhere that was a little more detailed (like showing which casinos don't allow mid-shoe entry, etc.). Thanks!!! Mr. Bill

Thanks CasualPlayer!!!! I appreciate the response!!! Mr. Bill

I've read some conflicting opinions on the matter and it SEEMS that the simpler Level 1 systems are not as effective. Or is it just that the rate of return is not that high? I'm an absolute beginner and I think I will start with KO and then maybe work my way up to Hi Opt II. Thanks...

Thanks for answering my questions, everyone!!! Mr. Bill

As I understand it, spotters sit at the table and play until the count goes high and then call in the BP. It seems to me (only playing on computer sims) that the count doesn't stay high for very long, maybe only a hand or two. Question, unless the BP is standing right there at the table, how...

Thanks everyone for taking the time to discuss this issue in such detail. I've definitely decided to give up any thoughts of using a progressive betting system. Now if I could only decide on a counting system! Thanks again!!! Mr. Bill

Thanks for the advice!!!

Are the authors putting out these books all just full of shit, or what? I don't know anybody that says progressive betting works except these authors. Has any non-counting system ever made money over the long-term? Do you think these books are being secretly put out by the casinos? You...

How does it compare to Hi Lo or KO? I am trying to learn one (and hopefully only one) card counting system and I need something that will be effective against single and double decks, but especially against shoes, as that seems to be where all the casinos are heading anyway. I've...

Thanks for all the advice, everyone!!!

Yeah, unless I get comped a room, I will definitely be dry camping. My RV has a shower and I plan to hit the buffets and restaurants, so it shouldn't be too bad. I definitely don't want to pay $30-$40 a day. No way! I guess what I'm looking for is just a nice big parking lot where nobody...

Sorry if this is off-topic, but I'm planning a blackjack-playing trip to Vegas in my RV and was wondering if anybody could recommend a casino (preferably on the strip) that would let me park in their parking lot even if I'm not a guest at the hotel. Probably be there a couple of weeks...

It is from his book "Most Powerful Blackjack Manual" Here is the Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0818406585/sr=1-1/qid=1155479311/ref=sr_1_1/104-0688744-5780735?ie=UTF8&s=books Basically, the betting sequence is $10, $10, $10, $15, $20, $30 and then you start over. You quit...
