    Some dealers want to know which side is faster !!
    It is not easy for them to meet a fast player...not once in a year?

    300 hands / 1 hour = 300 hands / 60 minutes = 5 hands per minute = 1 hand every 12 seconds (as Flash indicated)

    ...Math isn't your strong suit, eh?

    Here is what Flash said :

    "LOL 300 / 60 = 12"

    300 / 60 is not 12.

    300 / 60 is 5.

    5 rounds per minute is correct.

    There are 60 minutes in an hour.

    Therefore ... 300 hands an hour means FIVE hands a minute.

    Simply Not Possible. I double-checked with two bona-fide experts

    who readily agreed with me that 300 is simply bizarre hyperbole.

    Two additional factors help contribute to the 300 round / hr figure. No hole card (OBO) and 5/6 penetration. Why you think I would make something like this up, I have no idea. I do not lie nor do I exaggerate. I deal in facts. I've played shoes in less than 5 minutes, timed down. Just because you are incapable of doing something doesn't mean that thing cannot be done.

    no hole card speeds up the game because they don't have to check for blackjack. That takes a while and happens more than 33% of the time (5:8).

    Yeah, sure ! (sarcasm) Like you had a partner count down hours worth of

    play with some of your chimerical supersonic dealers to rate their speed.

    no, i just looked at my phone before the shoe began and checked it again after during the shuffle. i don't need a team of assistants to clock a shoe bud.

    This shouldn't hold any significance. So long as you are operating on a low RoR, you shouldn't end up in the "poor house" at all. Just bring more money to the tables and you should be fine. I would kill if I could consistently be matched up with a dealer who could deal me 300/hands per hour. The variance doesn't bother me at all. I frankly get tired of playing this game sometimes, but it's good money. If I could achieve the end result 3x faster, I'm all for it!

    Well, maybe your watched stopped or you had one too many Stella Artois;
    OR in your universe time moves at YOUR pace and you can defend yourself
    against all skeptical BJ iconoclasts, by demeaning your elders and betters.

    I will gladly wager $1,000 to $10,000 on this,
    as long as the money is held in escrow or by:
    Moses, Tarzan, Tthree, Frank Galvin, FireWalker, etc.

    I bet that there would be a long line of players
    wanting to take a piece of MY action.

    With this line of thinking, Norm, Don S. , Tilton, and a long list of other talented authors and contributors should have just given their books and software away?

    Be careful with your assumptions of value.
    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!
