Hi fellow AP's introductuion

[What me worry]

I didn't see a place for a formal introduction so I hope right here is ok. I have been counting cards using the red 7 count for about 7 years I have had my up's and down's like everyone else. I have experienced every emotion at the Bj table. I am no scholar at the game by any means but I feel I would score in the top 30 percent of other counters. I contemplated counting full-time 5 years ago but I met a wonderful woman and I didn't feel like that would be an ideal situation to start a new marriage in. We still made occasional casino trips in the last four years she plays slots and I would still attempt to count. We started a business together and my part of the business requires extensive travel and I am going to start counting again with a vengeance! I am also a life long learner, mouth shut, eyes and ears open kinda guy. I have the available time to practice and perfect my skill at this time. I have never counted in Nevada all my play is in the Midwest and Louisiana Indian casino's. Since I've been counting I have had only three monster runs at the table but several sessions in the thousand dollar range. I have only feared being confronted or kicked out of a casino twice and I simply left once the PB interrupted my concentration enough times. One time I had tipped the dealer enough she covered for me by telling the PB I was only doubling every other winning hand.
I joined this site for the camaraderie of other counters and to learn some new methods to this madness and maybe share some of my stories and experience as well.


thanks Jason1

welcome Jason , if you don't mind my asking what your spread is or was / about on average ? ..I understand it might have changed considerably in 7 years ...

I typically buy in for an amount slightly under 1k at the craps tables. I play a few rounds staring at my watch fake a phone call at the end of a roll and leave to go play BJ. I generally play 6d shoe games. I play table minimum and I try to hide my play with a martingale system only doubling every other win not the losses. Once the count goes to zero on a red 7 count I double my average minimum bet. If the count goes positive 3 I will triple. If I lose a hand on a positive count I will either repeat the same bet or double again depending on how much farther the count went up. In one instance early in my counting business I started with a five dollar minimum bet and was able to raise to a five hundred dollar hand and had to split Aces. My heart almost beat out of my chest. I ended up with an ace 8, and an ace 7 dealer had a six up card and busted. I was so excited I forgot the count, I finished the shoe with a 50 flat bet. I try not to look like a robot at the table.

Welcome aboard. Not quite sure on the martingale method tied to counting, though.

Didn't know that was such a pet peeve with you Nikky.........LOL

With his new name, maybe he can load a pic of Alfred E Neuman from Mad magazine?
