Hello all. I have a question for you guys about the way a bankroll works. Any Pros out there? Let just say I'm doing a minimum $20 with a 1-10 bet spread so max at $200. At 50X you need 1K. At 100X you need 2K which would cut your risk of ruin in half. Lets say these are my bets: T2 or less -...

When do you deviate from Basic Strategy regarding a shoe's count? Or how can you determine when to hit or stand depending on the count ?

I'm learning the basic strategy by heart, but I still got a hard time understanding something. How come you want to hit on 18, soft total, against a 7 and 8, but having a 17+ in hard total, you would always stand against anything. I get how the chance of busting is way higher when having a...

I was wondering if anyone here feels there is a certain etiquette in the card counting world when you find yourself at a table with another card counter? 1. Does the first card counter to sit at the table sort of have claim to the table? Is the second card counter expected to immediately...

Hi guys, let me introduce myself, if anyone really cares. First let me say that of all the blackjack sites on the web, I find this one to have the best (knowledgeable and helpful) members of any. I know im not the most eloquent or humorous writer, so I appreciate it if you can hang in there. I...

I was asked by a friend a few weeks ago to take a look at his new book "The Color of Blackjack" (Archive copy). What started as a basic review turned into a lot more, because I felt I had to extensively test his system to see if his claims were accurate. Simming his system was moderately...

I am a blackjack card counter. I was a recovering hi-lo loser at 21 before I discovered my ten count 20 years ago. Yes, the same hi-lo count used by the suckers at MIT in the movie "21". The chumps at MIT went bankrupt according to the History Channel's "Breaking Vegas". My Ten Count(JSTATII) is...
