Almost everything I read on here revolves around simultations and mathmateics. While they are certainly the core of successful play and a must have understanding every player needs, they often ingore the human factor.
We make mistakes. We sometimes hold back our bet increases in fear. We sometimes raise our bets more than is justified from frustration at long sessions with few opportunities. We either lose count or make mistakes in the count.
That said - save the find a different game comments. I've been playing for years with a very positive return. My return on playing has been consistenly higher than most simulations show. My style of play is rather unique, and is tailored to my own strengths and shortcomings as a player. I'm asking if others integrate personal factors into their style of play.
Two examples of personal factors in my play are the type of game (i.e., double deck) and trip bankroll. I play double deck because I often lose count and have fewer hands to ride out before the shuffle. I keep my trip bankroll to a minimum whichs makes me play harder (leave the table when the count is negative). With a larger trip bankroll I find myself more willing to ride out more slightly negative counts.
Does anyone else use similar strategies? I'm interested in hearing from anyone who employs any non-numeric/personal strategies.
Okay - next time I'll post this under Vodoo Betting Strategies!:grin:
