Very interesting point and I agree with you. The mechanics of the game are only the beginning. That said, I think there is still an element of the game that runs itself and one either wins or loses as a result. For example, take T,T v. 4 with a TC+1. So I stand, and the dealer turns over a 7 and then draws a 10 herself. No big deal, right? Well, when I lose 7 out 10 such hands when the odds are 66% in my favor, it starts to wear me down. Then there are the 21s that end up a push. Then there was the dealer who dealt himself 7 BJs in a row. Then...
I'd like to think that in those situations there is some missing element in my game, some technique I am lacking that would change the outcome. For the life of me I don't know what that is - other than increasing my emotional ability to deal with sustained losses. And for that, school is in session for me.
