In the 9th inning of a 10 hour Sunday evening session (5pm - 3am), I hit a hard 17 against a 10 with a TC -3 and got a perfect 21, beating the dealer. I had also been using alcohol as cover (3 beers over 10 hours) - and find talking, "making a scene" on big hands comes natural to me, But I'm acting all while focusing on the count like a Zen monk LOL.
I have a real problem feeling comfortable back counting or wonging out - Does sitting out multiple hands attract real heat? Is this easier with crowded tables or empty tables? It seems with COVID there's a long backline waiting to sit so counting doesn't matter because you can't snag a seat. It seems on busy nights its best to play through.
Also, my bankroll is about 1k-2.5k at most and play 25min 0.56% edge so I'm afraid my risk is too high to not wong.
I had some real luck with free bet BJ despite the 1% house edge. Since it's 2 deck, it's countable and has huge split/double potential which can be aggressive for a small bankroll. But the no mid-shoe entry and the push 22 is tough, but it makes me think it's like i'm not even playing the hand, but wouldn't that be a advantage since positive counts only come 20% of the time? Even though it would of been a win... Not sure
