Bummer how long you guys think I got/ anything else I can do to prevent this or at least postpone it for a long time?

I'm planning on putting in an hour or 110 hands a week in 3 different casinos (whichever comes first). Spreading 1-16 using Hi-Low with illustrious 18. Probably going to use players cards in all of them because I've received a lot of heat in the past when I refused to get one. I'm pretty much...

Wow only 13.5% now we're talking. I'm going to cut off playing as soon as I reach 7K. I think that's a good number for me, doesn't give me too much risk (well way to much by your guys standards but anyways) and if I get the 7K I'll be 100% debt free and ready to truly hit the casinos! Hopefully...

Beleive me I know there's so much to learn about the card counting world and I love to learn about it. I'm still very young and I've read Blackjack Attack and a few other Blackjack books, done countless hours of practice, training, research, simulations, calculations etc... I know all of this...

Haha well tell me if these results mean anything. Using the ROR calculator from qfit.com it says I have a 72.13% chance to succeed in doubling my 10K. This is based on my units being $37.5 (half $25 unit play and half $50 play). I calculated my win per 100 hands to be 2.11 units, std. dev. per...

Ya my ROR would be pretty high but honeslty at this point I just want to play. I've been patient for years and finally I have something to work it's just so hard to hold off even longer. Anyways if my ROR is like 40% which is crazy high that means I have a 40% chance to lose it all before I...

I might be able to get another 10K in a year or so if I'm lucky. Pretty much though I'll need like 30-40K for this type of play? This is just a major bummer because I know I have the skills to do it if only I had the $$$$$$$ -Skidep

Lol okay see this is exactly why I felt it necessary to get the opinion of real pros! So yes what I meant was .4% to .5% house edge and true count of 0... my bad. And the reason for only playing 2 hours a week is because I figured my bankroll would actually last me a year but I guess that's a...

Hey guys I've been around blackjack and counting for about two years now and am finally going to be able to test out my skills in the casino. I would have done it years ago but I've never had the money. Although right now I don't have a lot to work with I think it's enough to get started and...
