Migrations I am camping out at (Dead link: http://blackjackedge.proboards.com/index.cgi) for the time being. One refugee camp is much like another? To understand my frame of mind with all this going on, picture "Apocalypse Now" in the scene where mortars are blowing up, explosions are lighting...

I could just puke right now... Ugh... I guess I am taking this pretty hard. I need to read through and find out specifically what Ken's gameplan is. Is this a matter of "Poof! It's gone!" one day soon? Is blackjackinfo fading into the dust to be lost in the sands of time or some crazy sh*t...

Remarkable encounter I witnessed a remarkable demonstration in sequencing technique in another "unique meeting of the minds" in which we ponder, analyze and examine advanced techniques. We flip a few cards around here and there. We discuss various publications. On this particular occasion I...

Flash read this thread! Flash, read through this thread! There is something interesting that came up during our little workshop thing the other day brought up in there!

Often asked question This question of what a sufficient bankroll consists of has been thrown out there time after time. Whether a bankroll can be replenished or not is obviously a factor on where to keep your ROR but I see these posts about people splitting hairs on what they can slide by with...

Afterthought Two things come to mind with regard to "ratholing" chips. One is that if you are a successful player it becomes impossible to rathole enough chips to show a loss in the overall. Another is something that you would pick up from reading what I wrote about the pit supervisor pinning...

Golden nuggets of literary accomplishment That's all well and good, CP... Now if I could just manage to win a few hands of blackjack!

I was hanging out in Atlantic City, playing some blackjack and hanging out. It was not going well, so I pulled back from the blackjack tables and meandered over to the slot machine area to sit and relax and order a drink from the waitress. I am not much for actually PLAYING the slot machines...

Opposite sides of the fence This is nothing I can explain in 30 words or less and would really need to sit down with you in person with my 100 or so pages of graphs and charts, some decks of cards, a clipboard, a scientific calculator and a WHOLE lot of time. Guess what... that's not going...

Do not despair! Even if the blackjack is horrible at Planet Hollywood, there is at least some seriously hot-looking poon strutting about the place... if that's any consolation. Maybe take the Flash's advice and seek a better game of blackjack is all...

Simpsons already did it Gordon count, DHME and Tarzan count... all the same bag of beans! All are devised on the same 4 base groupings with the same mathematical principles correlating to one another. It's the most effective counting method known in my opinion. I started working on it...

Think like a casino You guys are thinking of it as players rather than as a casino. The players put up their end of it in cold, hard cash. The casino on the other hand puts up their end in chips! So... here I am putting up my pieces of clay with a theoretical value up against your cash and I...

Look out Vegas here he comes! I hope you have a safe, fun and great trip. It's been a good while since I have been out west and I might work a trip in out that way myself someday hopefully sooner than later. I would want to verify if the rumor is true that "the black hole of Calcutta" that...

The best way to beat singledeck 6:5 I have worked on this and studied this for many years to devise the best way to beat singledeck blackjack. Disguise is important here because there is serious heat involved but it's quite simple really. Upon sitting at the table say to the dealer, "Look...

Left field This thread has really gone off into left field! Holy SH*T can anyone stay focused on a given subject around here or is ADD rampant on BJINFO? You can get robbed just as easily at a PA casino as you can with a NJ casino as you can in Vegas as you can in St. Louis, etc. You stand...
