haha im sorry if that title confused you but I really cant think of a decent title.
I hope this is in the right section, it should be?
Let me explain.
Ok basically,
My Father used to be a dealer for many years in London and from his experience he noticed a few things and developed his own simple yet effective strategy.
He noticed how "runs" would happen. Runs where the dealer wiped the table out 4 - 5+ times in a row, and others where the players won 4 - 5+ times in a row.
So his strategy was, play minimum bet, or just wait till the right time if its not busy, and then when the dealer busted increase your bet.
So £1 minimum, when dealer busted say £20 on next hand then go back to £1. Or just wait for a bust and play then.
It was based on the "runs" idea. I know it may sound a bit funny, and that when the dealer busts it indicates a bad "run".
He used to play this method with a group of friends for the last 20 odds years and its done them all well.
Now, this is where you guys come in. I was wondering if maybe theres more to it than meats the eye.
Perhaps it could be some sort of indicator? For example 70% of dealer busts is when the count is +1 for example?...........An indicator to say the player has an advantage. Obviously it wouldn't be EVERY time but possible more times than not.
I was wondering if this could be something that could be simulated or if anyone could have any idea about any maths involved if any?
Please dont knock it as hes been using it for the last so many years and its worked good for him and the friends he played with, im just wondering if there could be something behind it mathematically?
I hope ive explained it well and what im looking for,
Thanks guys
Regards
