At my casino they recently opened a 15 min double deck game... for years its been 200 min
anyway i took advantage of this and sat down at the table. While waiting for the deck to be shuffled i immediately noticed every single player (5) following every card turning their heads as it went and one even was counting while moving his lips!
Their strategy's were all different...
player 1 a 19 year old kid (my age) With friends all crowded behind him drinking a club soda with lime dressed in dress pants and a vest (friends in street clothes) had his counting backwards! he must have just watched 21 when the count was low he would raise his bet and when it went tc 2 would bet the min! lol he was pretty mad for the 15 min he lasted blowing through 400 bucks screaming and whispering to his friends... i don't get whats wrong i didn't loose it...:laugh: oh and his spread as follows
tc
-5- 40
-4 35
-3 30
-2 25
-1 20
0 20
1 20
2+ 15:yikes::laugh:
player 2
actually had his counting down was about 55 he had some heat and would bet the max (100) at tc+2 in neg he would bet (50) he would hit his 6 againt 6 in front of the pit boss say he wanted to gamble and pull his 5 a little to often but he was still terrible
the others were pathetic
they constantly lost count and would consult with their friends as to what it was... they all had different answers every time. they had no specific bet spread one was a spread of 1:max the rest 1:2.5:laugh:
needless to say the table cleared very quickly the dealer pit boss and i had a good laugh together
anyway my trip ended in being up $600 in 5 hours it was a fun one for sure
oh and to top it off i bought 100 with two 50s and they gave me fourty claiming it was 2 20s it took them 20 min to check cameras in the meantime i was already up 200 and was comped a room
