Winnie: Deck estimation and tc calculation are important as well. Counting is easy, can you sit first base and make good playing decisions without feeling pressure?

You're going to do just fine with that kind of speed.
I'd say most are in the 20 +/- 2s range. Counting really is the easy part. Give me 10 minutes practice and I believe I could do almost every count in <25 seconds.

I read these forums, I have a decent understanding of almost everything I see. I am still a new guy though. There is so much I don't know about that is likely never to be discussed on open forum. I think of the forums as high school. I'm going to have to work hard and spend resources to get through college, and once I've proven myself I might be able to make it in graduate school.
