I am trying to reach the correct house edge of 0.42% to determine if I am simulating the playing strategy correctly or not. I am also simulating with counting.
I agree with you that redoubling 12...
You are not going to get a decent edge without counting. And with counting, I personally wouldn't bother with all the strange plays. The more cards in the hand, the less often the hand will occur....
The house edge should be 0.42% with H17 Redouble. I am able to sim the game at about 0.46% but I don't have any composition-dependent strategies and I cannot redouble hard 12 vs. 7/8.
That multi-strategy is yielding a much worse house edge at about 0.7%. I looked into some of the strategies attached to it and they are incorrect.
One example is that the two-card strategy has a...
I am playing bj on replenishable bankroll.
Replenishable bankroll= 20,000
I have invested 7000$ so far ( not including bj profit).
I am investing almost every biweekly.
Lets say now i have made...
Yes, I get the point. I just wanted to make clear, that I would intuitivly call that situation more like "defensive not double down" :D. Now I know what you mean and I´m fine with calling it...
In the "defensive" double down situation, the BB doesn't decide to "hit," but chooses not to follow the FB's double down. I wish he could "hit,"
but in this case, the FB only gets one card. In the...
Yes, it generally makes sense to just use indices. However, yo should have gained more EV than that. There is a built-in SP21 multi-strategy in the Shackleford folder.
Thank you, Gronbog!
Thank you for your explanation, Cacarulo. It makes totally sense, to analyze these situations.
I just wouldn´t have used the terminology "defensive double down". For me I...
Thanks for the info. I tried this and am only getting about a 0.03% decrease in house edge using this complex multi-strategy. If this is the actual case and I didn't screw anything up, it seems...
figured you'd get a kick outta this, drunk
week #1 NFL presented 6 matchups of 2023 playoff teams vs 2023 non-playoff teams:
Steelers vs Falcons
Bills vs Cards

Dolphins vs...
Correct.
Correct, but that doesn't mean a BB has to form a team. They can focus on finding good players to decide which ones to bet behind.
Sincerely,
Cac
In theory, and especially with low TCs, we can encounter negative EVs. Let's take the play A2 vs 5 as an example. Basic strategy says to always double down,
but at TCs lower than zero (Hi-Lo...
First, Lucky Lucky to catch up. The gaming math guy is Elliot Jacobsen or (son). Google him
Second to clarify - selectively beatable which means you practice a wonging type strategy or a variable...
Thanks Don, I suppose you mean "The Hi-Lo Card Counting System: A Complete Guide to Index Play", right? I don´t have that book yet, maybe I consider to buy it.
For my purposes I did a sim in CVCX...
