Not really. A bet at +1 can have an advantage that is slim when flooring or truncating because +1 incorporate all counts from 0.1 and 1.0, so when playing your +2 counts, the advantage is more than...
can i use cvdata to sim sidebets that is not blacljack based.? i want to know the frequency of a bet becoming positive so i can choose optimal departure for shoes that offer less value.
See p. 212, #8. It pays to read the introductory material. :peaceful:
There are Optimal and Practical columns. The Practical are, well, practical bet sizes that deviate slightly from the...
If I've already been asked not to play somewhere that scans ID for every single patron on entry, would it be helpful at all to change appearance to try looking drastically different?
CVData does randomize periodically like a casino table getting new cards. Don't remember how often. If you have multi-threading on, it is basically playing at multiple tables with different shoes and...
@Norm, one idea I have in mind is whether the initial state of the shoe has an impact on the EV where you are more or less "stuck" in a bad state because of the non-randomness of the shuffle and you...
Generally not. The one pass R&R I have as a sample is basically non-existent these days. Every several years someone tells me they have seen it. Of course there are many levels of randomness included...
Define House edge. If .5 advantage at +1 is $50 then house edge at 2 with double the advantage should be $100 and +3 which is 50% greater advantage over +2 should be $150 - so Kelly suggests
MJ,
The bet spread just gives the min and max bets, whether in units or dollars. In units, generally the higher number comes first (a 6:1 spread), while in dollars generally the lower value comes...
For the chapter 10 tables, how is the number of units in the Kelly bank column calculated? Why is it in some instances, if you multiply the number of units by the unit size, the value exceeds $10k?
