I joined BJ21 and Blackjack the forum as paid member and it's been totally worth it. The archives, the discussions, the Law Vegas casino reports... Everything. Many posters only participate in the paid forums. They helped me through losing streaks where I thought I would quit and helped me figure out what I was doing wrong.LC Larry said:If you're paying anything to discuss card counting, you're getting ripped off.
Nah that’s bullshit. Even though BJ21 is kinda dead these days, I think that was one of best forums to talk blackjack on a few years ago, hands down. BJ21 was and is still a paid site. There’s good discussions on BJA too.LC Larry said:If you're paying anything to discuss card counting, you're getting ripped off.
I figure a blackjack forum is a lot like a newspaper. How many newspapers do you need to get the news. At some point the law of diminishing returns sets in. If you join BJA I would not renew my BJ21 membership as that is also quite expensive. Norm's paid site is not very expensive, and I think Norm's site at present is the best and is mostly free.ZeeBabar said:I joined BJ21 and Blackjack the forum as paid member and it's been totally worth it.

Yup, asked and decided not to join then. Since then, BJ21 has gone down and there are many here that are also on Norms site. I get emails from BJA and maybe they have an active group. You also get the casino conditions report.Midwest Player said:I figure a blackjack forum is a lot like a newspaper. How many newspapers do you need to get the news.

By the way, didn't you ask this same question a couple months ago?
I promise I won't join.ZeeBabar said:If I joined, I am sure you will get there. It's what stalkers do.

I don't disagree that the several of these sites are valuable for the archives, including this one which has extensive archives and is still free.ZeeBabar said:I joined BJ21 and Blackjack the forum as paid member and it's been totally worth it.

If you seriously look at my "repeated" questions, some of those threads ended up quite long. While some tended to use the thread to get their hostilities out, many others answered, some repeated their answer. Unlike you and many others sitting like vultures for years at these forums, there are newbies and new to the forum who read the answers and are generally not aware of questions and threads of 1-4 years ago.KewlJ said:I don't disagree that the several of these sites are valuable for the archives, including this one which has extensive archives and is still free.
I am just wondering if so many posters of these paid forums have helped you through losing streaks and helped you figure out everything you were doing wrong....Why do you continue to burden us all with the same questions, repeated over and over, on an almost weekly basis?![]()
In my opinion, you're half right. There are several posters there who come across as "experts" in their dogmatism, but they are far from it.bjo32 said:It appears like BJtheforum is the most activity and has the most knowledgeable bj players.

Also in my opinion, the most knowledgeable posters are on BJ21. Because BJ AP is a "mature" science, many long-time and knowledgeable players have very little left to say. You'd do yourself a great service by reviewing the archives of Posts of the Month there. That's where you will find many gems of great info.
We've been agreeing with each other too much latelyRyemo said:
You shouldn’t be afraid to ask questions. I asked a ton of questions when I first started. But Zee has been on the boards for years and he’s been asking the SAME EXACT questions every single year. And he’ll ask those same questions over and over across different boards.bjo32 said:Btw, I've found ZeeBara posts very good, as well as entertaining, especially all the responses. He asks a lot of questions I've thought about asking but too scared to ask. I'm still learning too but feel like I've come a long way in the last year, with the help of all the experts on these bj sites. It's a great community!
But my repeated question leads to some good answers that benefit newbies and others who may or may not have been on the forums for years like you have been. I ask again to see if there are any new answers and I got it. I am trying to decide where to put my money and the last time I asked this question, BJ21 was quite active. NOw, I wonder if that money is better served on another forum.Ryemo said:You shouldn’t be afraid to ask questions. I asked a ton of questions when I first started.
