Hey everyone,

I am at the Mandalay Bay in Vegas. Last night I was with my wife and played a little low limit blackjack. My brain wasn't up to counting I had a few drinks and just saw Mamma Mia. I thought what a perfect time to try some progression. I was going to do $10- $15-$20, and quit after 3 losses. well, it was win,lose,win,lose,lose,win. the whole time. I didn't lose three times in a row but I didn't win more than one time in a row. The only thing keeping me there were a couple guys that would do the stupidest things. It was so funny, the dealer and I would make fun of them but they kept doing it. One guy would always split 10's even against an ace, he would then draw to 15 and stand! another guy would constantly hit a 13,14 against a 5,6. I mean really. Dealer just got to the point where he would shake his head.

anyways Luckily I only lost $80 last night, but I don't know if I want to do it again, I am scared. I am going to play some Texas Hold'em today. Yee Haw.

Didn't I told you how to handle choppy games? - I even offered to meet with you guys in Vegas. ..., Hmm?

You should have made some serious money in that game. Most of the time Bj is choppy. If you play this type of game and if you want to play Walter's system than you've got to to drop the second bet and then increase if you want. Anyway, a choppy game is a gold mine!
