Crowded DD

[Dopple]

I would think just off the top of my head and my feel for the game after 30 years at it that even a crowded DD game would be better than most 6D except maybe heads up. You seem to be getting advantage situations every other deck and that is about every 10 minutes.

Do not know the numbers but

I would think just off the top of my head and my feel for the game after 30 years at it that even a crowded DD game would be better than most 6D except maybe heads up. You seem to be getting advantage situations every other deck and that is about every 10 minutes.

I would tend to look at all the options out there and perhaps in one casino play the crowded DD game but in another play the shoe game.
With 60% pen in a casino with 7 spots on a DD game, a crowded table might only yield 3 hands and 4 at most. If the count does not rise till the second hand you will be possibly struck only playing one hand with an edge. If you do not understand the cut-card effect on a game, the dealer shuffling away a TC+5 on a poor pen DD game, will certainly help you understand it.
At the same time, the same casino might offer decent pen on a 6d game and sometimes the count rises early and then you can easily have a half dozen or more handswhere you can bet with an edge, especially when your table is nearly empty.

Evaluate every situation.

I remember in AC about 12 years ago they would always shuffle up on a high count when you bet anything more than your min bet.

Dopple,

12 yrs ago I was spending an enormous amount of time in A.C. betting high limit rooms.

I was half-shoed up and down the boardwalk, I was never preferentially shuffled up on.

I have bad cover.
