How viable is backcounting in 2024?
I was playing around with CVCX and saw that my risk of ruin plummeted even when backcounting to 1 and playing out the rest of the shoe no matter what. Is this...
With Max Bet out get a push on Blackjack and really needed that win never mind the 3:2 payout.
Whatever can go wrong goes wrong or some saying similar is how I sum up this game.

concerning the 4-4 vs 5,6 split. i have seen very little info. about a deviation play regarding this hand. it would seem to be ill advised with any ten rich shoe (or dbl. deck for that matter)
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?
Since you start with a negative count, when should you begin using indices rather than basic strategy? I am thinking like the 9v2, 11vA,12v5&6, and the 13 and 14 hands. Thank you for the time &...
Hi guys,
I am from minnesota and I purchased the cvbj and cvcx software in hopes of building a perfect game that i can eventually bring to casinos. After doing some research in the area, it looks...
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.
If your smallest bet is, say, $25 and your largest bet, which you make at a true count of, say, +5 is $400, then you have a 1-16 bet SPREAD. But what bets do you make in between, at TCs of +1, +2,...
back counting is fine, just don't stand around there forever. watch a round or two and then sit down or bounce. while you sit down, you can fumble your money and let them deal another hand etc.
Backcounting is quite viable, but it’ll be location dependent.
At the properties I play at I can just wong in place. Lose a couple hands then complain about the shoe not being good and let...
Shit happens. I recall some years back a monster count shoe laying 2x350 getting 2 pat 20 hands dealer getting a multi card 21 - a couple of hands later losing 2 pat 20 hands again to a dealer multi...
I just got back from a trip where I experienced consistent, prolonged negative variance like nothing I've experienced in my short AP life. In most of my previous trips, there was some negative...
True story - I’m playing and this Asian (looks like a) kid puts 2 lammers to my right. Right away my spidey sense tingles. He goes to the baccarat table - with clean line of site to my table. Gets to...
I disagree. Your "act" needs to consist of making it appear that you're not backcounting. For example, talk on your phone or watch the TV in the pit while making a quick glance at the table when...
Not only viable, but one of the best ways to make money playing blackjack. Just stand behind the table, try to blend in, count the cards. Don't "put on an act", just stand there and count.
