Here is the best game near me. 6d, Lucky Ladies, Surrender, H17.. okay pen. I found its playable with a big spread and wonging out at -1. I don't think I can wong here with it being a small casino with max bet $200. Everytime I do more than once or twice the pit swarms and even had someone make a counting reference once.. not sure if it was a joke but still...
My question is: What size bankroll would make regular 3 day wonging trips to Vegas worth it?
I always played off a decent B roll but never played a lot of time and pretty much always considered my trip roll as spent even before I played so the winning was a bonus. I have made profit over the past years counting very part time but not alot. I would like to put some regular time in. I get a lot of travel rewards through my AMEX but without using them a trip in the AM on day one returning the PM on day three would run me about $350 for everything..
Are the wong chances worth the trip VS. playing at the casino within driving distance?? I can wong count two tables at once and would be going Friday-Sunday for maximum camo. I understand the risks which is why I am contemplating my best route and if it is even worth going for with the amount of BR I would have to set aside and risk losing to make it pay. I am self employed and business runs as usual when gone for a short trip so no loss from work time. I know how to figure ROR and EV just don't know enough about the software to figure wonging into it. I know I would be playing less hands at a lower risk but not how to figure the added value of that vs. playing more hands per hour more risk??
Also, Is it even worth getting a players card and trying to set up comps when planning on mainly wonging?? Would setting up a "home base" casino be worth it when only making it out 6 days total per month. I would focus only on aggresive wonging on a few of those so I could only play at "home base" three days a month. With a BROLL of 10k? 20K? would it be worth it or does it not start paying until you bump it up to 50k+??
Sorry the thread is so long thanks for looking and thanks in advance for any responses.
