    Need Help w/ Investors

    Hi, I'm new to the forum. I'm a former BJ dealer and active player, yet live in TX where the nearest casino is an hour and the spreads are horrible.

    I tested my system this Summer in 22 hour turnaround trip to Vegas. I won $200+ in 12 straight casinos with a $1000 BR.

    I'm going to Vegas in September and October for 3 days each and need investors to have a BR. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions?

    Thank you,

    Mr. BJ75

    1. Are you counting cards?
    2. Do you have a business plan?
    3. How do you know your skills are where they need to be?
    4. Do you understand how gambling winnings are taxed?

    1. No, I'm not counting.

    2. Yes, I have a business plan.

    3. I've been ironing out the wrinkles in my strategy for about 22 years and now certain I'm disciple and ready to blow it out.

    4. Yes, I understand the taxation.

    I'm a former BJ dealer. I'm currently a GM in sales and a licenses financial advisor with a Series 7, Series 63 and Group 1.

    Enough said. What do you do to gain an advantage or are you simply organizing your wins and losses for your long term loss to create a reasonable chance at coming out ahead in the short term using bet variations?

    I use a betting strategy and take full advantage of the limits in Vegas. I use a 12-16 hand bust plan. Goal is only 3.5-9% to move tables or casinos. Main reason for that is to stay discipline and keep focused.

    This is a little cryptic but I think I know what you are doing.

    I am not simply doubling my bet every time I lose. I put my strategy to test this Summer, and I won in 12 straight casinos. Although I believe in counting, you will find few counters that had 12 straight winning sessions of 10-40% each time within 12 hours.

    It happens but not that often. The wins are probably much larger on average. Counting, most of the time, is a long grind of with big swings in both directions. You win twice as often as you lose but that depends on how you manage your sessions. When you hit those stretches without the losing sessions the profits add up to substantial amounts quickly. Right KJ. If only that would happen more often.

    As an experienced player, can you help me find investors for my upcoming trips in September and October? I'm looking for a BR of $5500 per trip and willing to sell in blocks. Thanks for your your advice and help.

    I agree with Howmany. You're not even playing with an advantage over the house. You got lucky using a betting system--the smartest thing to do is never play again (I guess technically it is smarter to gamble with other people's money if they let you).

    Do you have access to any other funds that you could use? Do you intend on taking a partial stake or are you looking for investors to back you completely?

    Also, how long would it take you to save up your own BR? I only ask because it could take a while to find an investor and by the time you do, you might have been able to save plenty? $5500 is not that much.

    Most investors prefer you to play with a edge, not based on past performance of a system.
    You don't score, until you SCORE!
