if there is a chance to win or lose on every hand...should u just bet big and get out of there???? and no im not mentioning messing up the cards for everybody else...im assuming that someone is behind you ready to sit when you get up...

what i mean is ....if you have $300 dollars and your at a $20 table...the first 5 hands your generally gonna win 2 of them at least....so should u bet big and leave or stay and play it out...?? and im also assuming that you have the money to lose

the concept is your gonna end up losing your money over the course of 2 hours or 10 mins....and since blackjack is so up and down...i would like to know your thoughts...thanks...

We are talking about 1-5% advantages here, which is why you see a lot of ups and downs in the short term.

If you are playing a game where the casino has the advantage, the only way to win is to bet big and get out. Over time, the casino will slowly be the victor.

However, if you are counting cards such that you have the advantage, it is the exact opposite -- the worst thing you can do is bet big on one or two hands -- that doesn't take advantage of your edge. The best thing you can do is to play millions of hands where the advantage will show.
