Acronyms

[Clint]

I realize this issue has been addressed before. Instead of people generously offering a list of acronyms - like folks often do when this question is asked - I was hoping to find a comprehensive list of acronyms. Does anyone know where I can find one. (Comprehensive vocabulary lists are easy to find) Maybe a good list of acronyms are in a hard back book that I haven't found (??) As a budding AP, I'm at a point where I can connect my RC and EV with an RNG as long as the TC plus the RC minus 99.316 of the GYYC correlates with the RPC and UBZ when it's brought to the UBZ power times 01.897 added to either 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6D (depending, of course on the casino and the state where I am playing) times the NGRS minus the YTRG and SWRED. Ya know what I mean?

(Sorry, that was a bad joke. Baaaad, baaad, baaaad. But sometimes when I read the forum posts, I feel like that - unless I google each acronym. It's like I'm reading "Latin."

For starters....

1D, 2D, 4D, 6D, 8D = 1 deck (single deck), 2 deck (double deck), 4 deck....etc. 8 deck shoes
S17 = dealer stands on soft 17
h17 = dealer hits soft 17
UBZ = some count, i'm not really sure
RPC = same thing, idk some other count
EV = expected value
rc = running count
tc = true count
das = double after split permitted
nodas / ndas = no double after split permitted
rsa = resplit aces permitted
nrsa / noRSA = resplit aces not permitted
RNG = random number generator (also used as the random number that has been generated, erroneously)
AP = advantage player
SD = standard deviation (how far you are away from expectation)
n0 = number of rounds where EV = 1 SD

Here are a few more:

HE - House Edge
HU - Heads up

These two drove me crazy at first. I figured them out eventually on my own.

Michael Dalton got his site back up. He is a member here. Blackjack Review network. Here is link to his acronym/abbreviation page in his Blackjack Encyclopedia. (But as to this site, remember that not ALL posters use the same abbreviations....so sometimes you just have to ask them what they mean.)

I'm pretty new to BJ, but on CBJN, some of the acronyms detailing the game are SC and NM
Can someone tell me what those are?

[ZenMaster_Flash]

SC = Cut Card Used

NM = No Mid Shoe Entry

Look at the last pages in C B J N for the legend.

[Ryemo]

There's a "key to the rules" in the last few pages of CBJN that explains all that.

I think SC means a shuffle card is used in a 1 or 2 deck game and NM stands for "no mid-shoe entry."

[ZenMaster_Flash]

DD = Double Deck

It Does NOT mean "double down"

[Ryemo]

Oops... Flash must have beat me to the answer a few seconds prior, considering post #8 and #9 are almost identical, lol.

Ahh, thank you guys. I thought "nms" was no mid shoe entry and couldnt figure out what "nm" was. I never looked past the list of places I play to make it to the bottom of the newsletter.
