Ray said:Alex, when you were at the 275 level in BJ(hole), would you have, at
some point above 275, taken a loss and return to 100? Just one of the
possibilities that I'm thinking about.

PJ said:Alex, I'm going there tomorrow. Are there any decent 2D games downtown? Looking for $10 min., S17, DAS, RSA, LSR, etc. If not, I'll stick with Mandalay Bay and Bellagio.
Nickels_n_Bullets said:Alex, a legit question.... about how many hands did you split and/or double... and is the # of hands shown including the splits and/or doubles?
Nickels_n_Bullets said:non-sequitur response... I was asking if you split and or doubled during your trip and about how many times did that happen. For all the runs I see posted there is NEVER a split or DD outcome.
Here are the BJ stats:
hours: 23
hands: 1840
profit: $1080
$/hour: $46.96
action: $36800
$_edge: 2.93%
unit: $5
avrg bet: $20
max bet: $55
max hole: -$275
max losing streak: 13
next bet: 20%

Nickels_n_Bullets said:"But how many times you split or double down is almost impossible to approximate. If I won money I suspect that I got about the normal rate of doubles and BJs per hour."
And how often is that using YOUR system? I must presume you have simulated it , and there is an answer based upon those sims. I know what text-book Basic Strategy indicates, but after reading some of the persuasive prose with your name on it, I can tell you don't play text-book Basic, and Basic Strategy expectations are NOT correct for your game.

I don't understand why you can't keep track of splits and doubles, you seem to be able to keep track of all the following:
hours played
hands played
action (total money bet)
Min. bet
Max. bet
Avg. bet
Max. Hole
Max losing streak
while the whole time figuring out what 20% of your bet is
This already seems like a pretty lengthy list to me! How in the world do you keep track of every hand played? Do you play so many hands then quit and go right it down somewhere and then sit down again? I usually just keep track of how many hours I played and then estimate about how many hands I might have played!
Also, it seems that you would have to play with a bunch of one dollar chips when betting with your method, this seems like it would bring alot of attention when you start your bet at $20, do you tell the dealer to give you a boatload of ones?
I don't think anyone on this board cares if you play your system, I think people like Grifter though are trying to protect the newbies from thinking your method is actually a good one. Good job Grif, keep em' honest for us!

Wow! .., I've got it :!:
That's fine Grifter, There is no point arguing with you.

Nickels_n_Bullets said:What are your plays for 6-6 vs. 2 or 3, and 9-9 vs. 2, I don't think those are played Basic either, since you don't double on A2 thru A5. I figure theres a time to surrender 8-8 vs. 10-value from your previous posts. I'll also guess that you don't split 4's against 5 or 6. If most or all of these are correctly presumed, there might be some creedence in what you're doing.
