To everyone:
Thanks!!! Since I've started reading this web-site, related links, and the book Blackbet in Blackjack, I believe my knowledge has gotten stronger. When I'm in the casino going to the sports book or whatever, I'll take a look at the tables and see what's going on, and it's nice, becuase when I look at the table I just feel that much more stronger than I did before when I was already better than just the average player.
This weekend after reading Blackbelt in Blackjack and reading this site, I was ready to play some. I had about 400 in my pocket and wanted to play a little; however, the tables were packed and I decided adjanst it. Latter that night I was tired and watching t.v., then my roommate says let's go to "******", and eventhough being tired I said what the heck. We agreed to meet up in an hour and a half. (My roommate loves video poker) It's much latter and I find a spot @ Super-fun 21. I remember "The Mayor" said it could be beaten. The first fifteen minunets nothing special just back and forth. I surrendered a couple of times with 15 and 16's versus 10's with a plus count and would have lost most surrenders.
Although I'm really tired and the dealers like why don't you get a drink or something you look tired. I'm battling it out and spreading 1-4. Eventually, a plus count I get 7-3 looking into a 8. I double, I get an A to make 21. I win. I'm now up forty after 45 minunets. Playing more and the counts nothing exciting. Now there's a couple more hands I surrender and small doubles that I win. Now it's a plus count again and here goes a $20 bet. I get a 6-5 looking into a ten. Double, I get a ten and I win!!! I'm up 80$ and I cash out. I tip 3$ plus I had a dollar for the deal on both the original and double down bet. I played for a little over an hour and made good money.
It would be great if it was like that all the time, and over time I shouldn't win that amount an hour, but after practicing, asking advice, and studying different stratigies, i.e. surrender I had a good session, made money and had fun. I was happy with my play and it especially made me feel good after reading Blacbelt in BJ when Snyder talks about how a martial artist exploits the weakness of his opponet, like when I had a 4 unit bet, plus count, and a double. The opponet was week and I attacked, thus concuring my opponet. Lets see what happens the next time out.
Take it Easy and happy counting
