Over/Under 13 profitable?

Wiz,
This game can be very profitable, but you wouldn't use the hi/lo to beat it. It offers such oppertunity that Arnold Snyder actually developed a counting system just to beat it. You can find a full analysis here :

Hope this helps mate.

what effect would it have on the expected advantage if you were only able to bet half of your blackjack bet in the over under. If i bet 10 in the normal BJ I can only bet 5 in the side bet.
I once invented an unbalanced count to take advantage of the Over 13 bet. Later I was pleased to find my work confirmed when I found out I had reinvented the Sys. 1: count described in this article:

I have to say that in my personal, short-term use of it, it's like watching paint dry. Even with excellent penetration, the opportunities to bet the Over 13 were very few. This could easily have been due to bad luck on my part, however.

Yes, but where I play, for example, the max bet allowed on it is $25, so it's not like you can get rich off it.
Yeah Mystic Lake, but the amount of money you bet on the over/under side game can not be higher than the regular blackjack bet
I believe the max bet is on o/u is half of your BJ bet, and as canceler said $25 max. Not really worth it.

I think if you flat bet $50 and bet $25 when the count dictates its still very profitable
Hi
Did someone try this Arnold Snyder's over/under balanced system in practice http://www.blackjackforumonline.com/content/Over_Under_Card_Counting_System.htm
The article was written 20 years ago. Are these numbers correct ?? So using this system i should put big bet on "over" when TC is +3 and bet on "under" when TC is -6 ??
ps. Did some1 try to put big bet when TC is -6 ?? lol little risky i think
I was earlier using Hi Lo method and bet over at TC +4 or higher. I was playing bad i think because Arnold Snyder says that u should bet on Over at +5 if You use Hi Lo.

Use the system exclusively created for this bet, as the advantage is higher than just counting. Play basic strategy. The advantage comes from when you win the under bet at - counts, that hedges your main bet.

No way! That will result in many -EV $50 bets.
