    With casinos closed, can we take our risk management skills to trading options during this volatility?

    Blockfi. You actually get 9% on the first 40k, then 8% after that. I'll DM you a referral link (if anyone else wants it, just dm me) And on the DITM calls to scale out of a position. Does the above idea I outlined make sense?

    With casinos closed, can we take our risk management skills to trading options during this volatility?

    okay so I did this, so the prices will be slightly lower than they are currently: Sell 1 BTC for $61.6k Buy 2.2 BTC worth of 12/31 35k calls for $61.6k ___ My average price was 63k when I sold BTC for 61.6k. I felt like the biggest risk here would be a short term price correction, so I...

    So selling otm puts has absolutely killed it for me since this post started. I proceed with caution and small limits because I was just learning. I'd now like to ask you Don about a strategy to get leverage long (without risk??) -------- Market sell 1 BTC @ 60k Buy 12/31 ITM calls with .94...

    Panama Blackjack Conditions (where can I avoid CSM's?)

    Will be planning a trip to Panama soon. Last time I played there, they had amazing rules. ES and Double on 3 cards. The big problem was that most places used CSM's. I can think of one really good shop that had 2 shoe games. Are there more good games here, anyone have a recent trip /...

    My bankroll now supports Black Chips... Any tips on making the switch from Green (and not getting backed off)?

    My calculation for spreading to two hands is 2/3 of what the normal max bet would be. So 500 (2/3) = 333.33. So spreading 50 - 2x 300 seems better. Am I missing something? I mainly play DD as you're right, SD 3:2 is hard to find. I do have 1 game that I've been playing (with no heat) when...

    My bankroll now supports Black Chips... Any tips on making the switch from Green (and not getting backed off)?

    I've been keeping half my Bankroll in Bitcoin over the past 3 years. Needless to say, I've made more from Bitcoin appreciation than from playing blackjack in my lifetime. I can now justify a max bet of $500. Where as before, my max bet was $300. I mainly play DD and SD and am curious how to...

    Change in Playing conditions Pre-Covid v Post Covid?

    Is CBJN for December 2020 accurate? I'm looking for better playing conditions in Vegas this month. Or if you have info on good penetration for 6d games (or DD games with 25min) I'd love if you'd DM me.

    Using bitcoin while traveling seems like a good solution. Anyone doing it already?

    Even if you pay taxes on every transaction... who cares? You pay taxes when you realize a capital gain on stocks as well. Accept stocks aren't liquid 24/7 and it's difficult to trade stocks for cash in a peer to peer transaction. If you were to sell at a capital loss, that'll offset your...

    Using bitcoin while traveling seems like a good solution. Anyone doing it already?

    So I put over half my bankroll into bitcoin in March... I haven't had to trade any BTC back for USD, but, I did find someone willing to make that trade. If you're disciplined and smart enough to play blackjack with an advantage... you might want to take a second look at this technology...

    I'm not here to sell you on it... In fact. You probably shouldn't get into it. The other questions can be googled or YouTubed.

    Using bitcoin while traveling seems like a good solution. Anyone doing it already?

    My believe is that Bitcoin is revolutionary technology and a better money than we have Now. It's a polarizing topic so people either love it or hate it. My advice would be to ONLY go with Bitcoin (BTC) all the other cryptos are extremely risky. I once had 70 different cryptocurrencies and...

    Wow. A lot to take in there. (especially when the advice is not what I "wanted" to hear) Thanks Don. I'll take that advice pivot my focus away from trading. Do you currently follow the macro environment? Based on what you've seen, do you have any sort of guess as to how bad this recession...
