Hello Ken, On a recent trip to Laughlin, Nevada, playing blackjack at the Riverside Casino, I was in total shock at the table rules. You can Double down ONLY on a HARD TEN / ELEVEN OR HIGHER, CAN’T DOUBLE DOWN ON ANY SOFT HANDS AND NO DOUBLE DOWN AFTER A SPLIT. Blackjack did pay 3/2 and dealer hits soft 17. Can a person win under those rules? I quit playing there. Any other suggestions? I generally play at the Indian Casinos in Calif. where the rules are more favorable to the player. The biggest problem of all is…………… my lovely lady friend loves the Colorado River and wants to go back. Thanks so much for any suggestions, Larry D. P.S. Please don’t suggest a new girlfriend.
Those rules are definitely tough. Even if it is a 2-deck game, the starting house edge in that game is still 0.75%.
It’s been a long time since I played in Laughlin, but I would surprised if there aren’t better choices available. Look around at some of the other places and see what’s available.
Il curriculum vitae è estremamente realistico e comprende vari modi di mischiare le carte che imitano più fedelmente le mischie reali. Detto questo, se non si fa shuffle tracking, il metodo di shuffle non ha davvero importanza. I mescolamenti del casinò sono abbastanza simili a quelli casuali per il gioco normale e qualsiasi processo di mescolamento decente darà gli stessi risultati a lungo termine.
Con qualsiasi software, o anche con l'esperienza di un tavolo dal vivo al casinò, non date molta importanza ai risultati a breve termine. Ci vuole tempo per capire quali tipi di oscillazioni sono normali nel gioco. Se avete una grande sessione di vincite o una terribile sessione di sconfitte, questo non vi dice nulla su come vi comporterete nel prossimo viaggio. Bisogna avere un approccio al gioco a lungo termine.
Thanks zg.
The new site is built on WordPress with a custom theme based on Zurb Foundation.
I’ve seen some SEO benefit already, but since I changed almost everything at once, I can’t attribute it to anything in particular.
I’m sure it is part SSL, part mobile-friendliness, part page-load times, part message board cruft removal.
The important thing… Users are liking it. I see lower bounce rates, and more feedback.
It’s all good.
GameMaster, After practicing the HiLo system with your 24 Lesson Blackjack course, I switched over to the HiLo system from my speed count system. I went to atlantic city and played for two days and I am happy to say that I won each day. I am a $10 table player and I won about the same amount that I did using speed count system, Winning the money was great, but it meant more to me that I was able to use the HiLo system at the table with some success. I never thought I could learn HiLo system, but thanks to your lessons, it worked for me. However, I made many HiLo card counting mistakes, but I can definitely see the potential in using this system. I know I need more practice to master the HiLo system, but my main problem is mixing up the two systems. As I will continue to use HiLo system, I would appreciate your advice on how to overcome this problem.

I’ll reply since the GameMaster is still not available.
Mixing up two systems when switching is very common if you have a fair amount of table time with the old system. It doesn’t take too long for that to go away though. It’s just a matter of concentration and time. I’m glad to hear you were successful in your first Hi-Lo trip. Thanks for the report!
Ottenere un account gratuito su Quizlet.com è ottimo per fare esercitazioni. Potete creare le vostre schede flash e le eserciterete a rotta di collo. Il vantaggio è che potete accedere alle vostre schede da qualsiasi fonte Internet, anche da un iPhone. In questo modo, avrete la possibilità di eseguire migliaia di ripetizioni, a differenza del vecchio metodo. È davvero facile da configurare. Basta andare sul sito web, indicare il proprio indirizzo e-mail e impostare le carte nel modo desiderato. Una volta acquisita la strategia di base, è possibile creare set di carte che coprono anche la deviazione della strategia.
The Knowledge Base is a WordPress plugin I coded from scratch.
It reads the data from the original vBulletin forum database and injects it into WordPress for normal page handling.
While I was at it, I spent a lot of time to accomplish two more objectives…
I wrote code to merge the old CardCounter.com message board content into the vBulletin database.
And I wrote code to analyze all the outgoing links to see which ones were dead and which ones could successfully be redirected to archive.org.
It’s not perfect, but it’s a far sight better than the state of things beforehand.
I like the ease of use. It’d be nice, as a novice to the game, to understand why the strategy is what it is. It’ll tell me what I should have done, but not why. That makes it difficult to not make the same mistake in the future. (Also, this form says the email is optional. It’s not)
An explanation of why basic strategy recommends certain plays is on my list of future blog topics, and maybe the new trainer can offer a link to that when it is available.
As for the emails not being optional when leaving a comment, thanks for letting me know!
It’s fixed now, and comments no longer require an email address.
Went to vegas first time. Slots left me ho hum. Thought I might like blackjack as you actually have to use your brain. So im reading up on all the basic stratigy. Will memorize that and not deviate from the rules. In a nutshell , please advise me. Like which tables. Where to sit. importance of SP and Dh. Im okay with moderate minimums.

Salve, sono nuovo e sto imparando il blackjack su casino Verite 5.0. Quanto è realistico questo software rispetto al blackjack reale.

Kudos on the responsive design and the conversion of the old forums into the largest BJ knowledge-base on the planet.
What is the new CMS, WP?, Drupal??
Curious to know if so far you’ve noticed any SEO improvement by making the entire site SSL?
Thanks zg.

I would say load time and universal SSL would be the main factors.
How did you convert to knowledge base? gConverter? bbPress?

I wish at some point this site could include a strategy trainer for Spanish 21.
Thanks for the feedback. Once I get the new trainer going, I would at least consider looking at what’s involved for Spanish 21.
You combined BJINFO and CC.com into a single base … curious to know who the biggest contributors are 🙂

Drop me a line, Harold …

Hadn’t thought about it, but that sounds like a good idea.
