Today I was reading that book "Play Blackjack Like the Pros" by Kevin Blackwood. I find it quite interesting :) On page 80 I noticed vertical and horizontal spread betting known as card eating. I find it quite useful. So when your count is high you bet verticaly (raising your bet) and when your...

Ok I get that. http://wizardofodds.com/gambling/tenbet.html But this simulation was tested only at roulette and craps. Your loss is definetly the same as if you'd flat bet. But the thing is there you cant make decisions like in blackjack. In blackjack you can dobule your 11 agains 6 and...

I was just thinking for fun today about The D'Alembert System. Actually I understand all the principles of progression systems but this system just keeps bothering me. I highly believe systems dont work, but I just need an explanation for this one. Example: Assuming minimal bet is 5 and your...

Sonny thank you very much for all replies on both threads. Were really helpful :)

I explained this in card counting thread and came to conclusion to use card counting strategy for BJ games with 4 or more decks. But since there are no 2 deck games to be found I will always use a card counting strategy.

Memorizsing is useful for 1 or 2 deck games but I heard they are very, very rare. So I will just discard this idea and hit casino tomorrow with one of card count strategies. At the moment Im thinking of using Hi-Opt II since it has very high PE. One last question. Where do I find how side counts...

Anyone knows where could I find 1 or double-dec blackjack in london? I think I will soon ready for 2 decks. But as far as I heard there are no more 1 or 2 deck games. Only 4 or more.

Ok I understand principles of counting strategies now. But for example if you have hard 19 and dealer has an ace. Would you take insurance or not? I presume you have to know played cards (logically). Example: There are 10xtwo, 11xthree, 7xfour, 9xfive, 9xsix, 5xseven, 6xeight, 9xnine, 10xace...

No I wont use any counting systems. I will have to figure out how to know when to hit/stand/double/split while playing on my own. (probably using probability calculations).

Hello, Today I peeked at different card countiing strategies and I want to know how they effect your play. From what Ive understood Betting Correlation systems use advantage of your chances so when you have for example 1% chance you bet more and there comes your profit. The thing I dont...

I can remember 3 decks so far but my recalling speed is a little slow so I will work on that. I assume I will able to recall much faster after a week or three, gotta work on that. Then I will try to learn calculations and implement them in game. I know it will take me at least a month to get...

Thank you thats what I was looking for, BS variations. I use no system however, I can remember any card with pegging memory technique or whatever is called in english. For example I asociate ace with red (I dont know exact word) can of cocacola, 2 aces small plastic cocacola, 3 with big...
