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.
This has...
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)
How much of a difference does .99 BC vs .96 BC make? And lets say the .99 BC count is a bit more complex than the .96 BC, and by a bit I mean side counting 2 cards instead of 1.
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 &...
Norm, when I ran a simulation I got this message.
Run-time error '401':
Can't show non-modal form when modal form is displayed
After I press OK, the program shuts off and I have to reopen...
I added a note to a particular configuration prior to running a simulation. Now, every time I run a simulation that note appears, which no longer applies to my other simulations. Rather than...
Hmm so I could easily out pace the harder count. Ugh the perfectionist in me always tries to optimize things but simplicity is crucial with respect to time. I could probably do the easier count all...
Here I disagree. What you're saying depends on the counting system you use. In Hi-Lo or Halves, an ASC will effectively improve PE and not BC, as you rightly say, but with CAC2 this is not the case,...
BC/BE by itself means nothing. It must go hand in hand with PE. What I mean by this is that you can have a system with a BC of 0.99 that turns out to be inferior, in terms of SCORE, to another with,...
I don't really know the answer to those questions
but I would speculate that these inter division rivalries are more intense and the dog is more motivated to upset the fave
also, as I indicated...
Think of it this way
1. You will earn about 10-15% more with same time effort
2. You will earn about the same amount with 10-15% less time effort
Your comment is ambiguous. Are you referring to...
81 games is a really small sample but still interesting. Sports betting is fluid though. An edge today might not exist tomorrow if books potentially adjust.
One also wonders why the division...
Viable. But it's tricky and there's an art to it.
6-8 deck shoe will be +1 or great about 25-30% of hands.
Obviously it is mathematically preferable to play $0 on negative hands instead of min...
yesterday in the early a.m. the Rockies were +265 and the Dodgers iirc were something like -360
the Rockies won the game 4-1
that's the most extreme fave getting beat that I've seen since I've...

I read on a couple of different sites that MLB underdogs could be a very good bet when playing their same division rivals under certain conditions
but the conditions were restrictive - and...
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,...
