alright from a rookie blackjack dealer perpective, there are times when players use 2betting spot and win huge amount 500% of their starting money and there times when players bet 2 betting spot and loose and loose and cash in..

but what i've notice, players who do win by betting on two betting spot come in the early hours of the casino (6:30am) and play solo w/ me. so im guessing these players know what they're doing.

what i believe in, it's just luck, I a dealer of a BC gambling corp uses continues suffling machine, think it's just a turn of your luck, w/ a basic strategy of course. :D

soo me getting off work now had a hot streak, i told my players i was pulling 21 out of my ass lolz.. pulled 21 3x then pulled blackjacks lolz

Would playing 2 (or more) hands in high counts be beneficial because it decreases the variance and allows a greater bet spread or would these advantages be offset by the fact that you will have less rounds of hands at the higher count than if you were only playing one hand.

This is an example of what i mean... at true count of 9, playing 1 hand of 100 vs two hands of 70, so putting $140 in action vs $100 but while playing two hands i will only get half as many hands as playing with one.

You might get to play more hands if you play 2 hands you are not the only person who uses cards to play the dealer uses cards and other players use cards if you are playing with others putting out a 2 hands is way to get more hands. Plus the fact that the casino makes you go double the minimum for 2 hands and 5 times the minimum for three hands is a good excuse to put more money on the table when the count is high. Ploppies play 2 hands all the time. When I want to bet big I feel more comfortable putting 2 hands of $50 in a round rather than 1 hand of a $100. What if I have to split the hand 4 times if I have a $100 bet out there it can get expensive but if it is a $50 bet I feel comfortable spliting it 4 times and even doubling after a split! It would be very rare to have to hands that you have to split 4 times plus even if you did now you would have 8 different hands on the table that could split up your results more than if you had 4 hands. However all those hands will be tied to the dealers hand so if the dealer pulls 21 you are out of luck but if the dealer busts it is time to high five your neighbor and get excited!
