I will also permit risk-seeking investors to "take a side"
In effect, betting on either moses or ZenMaster_Flash
Minimum deposits ... $500.
It takes an implausibly long time to play 10,000 hands.
I suggest your surrendering 95% your assets to me [via certified check] to save time.
However, I imagine that you want to have a little fun and a few brewskis.
Location: Fort Lauderdale / Hollywood Florida
Date: to be determined.
I suggest that one very full day of play heads-up will equate to each of us playing for 5 hrs.
So … near 1,000 hands of YOUR game and 1,000 hands of MINE (6 decks, S17, LS RSA, SP4)
How can you object to being video-taped ? A safeguard for dispute resolution. Ditto: escrow.
I will agree to your offer of $50,000.
A couple of points.
I Think that proposed length if contest is to small a sample size, and that contest has to be over a relatively large sample size. The proposed wager is of sufficient size to allow for larger sample size.
Anything over a single deck detracts from Moses's declared area if expertise. Proposed rules would destroy Moses' probability of victory, as his game is essentially tailored to inferior rules with limited flexibility. Proposed rules would heavily favour Flash with his knowledge if indices pertaining to those rules. A happy medium of rules, including double deck, acceptable to both players would even out the odds.
I'm sure I have other thoughts - may respond further later.
I wouldn't mind getting into the contest. In addition to systems, another factor would be judgement. I can see it now. Two competing teams, divided however you want. Potential participants would be Moses, Flash, T3, Freightman, Tarzan and Zee.
Agreed upon rules with limits on spread and other things to be determined. Doesn't really matter who wins - salient point is a contest, viewed by vetted participants.
Participants could take notes, and after the contest, ask relavent questions of the various participants as to why they did, what they did, at a particular hand or point in time.
Don could referee the grammatics of declared expletives Enunciated by the various participants.
I really think there would be a lot of merit to this, though clearly very difficult to set up.

What about nuanced things like a dealer and prep to determine no gambling device has been altered to favour one over the other?
It would be an honour to deal to two of blackjack's top pro's in a battle to the death match.
I should say, (to avoid any issues of conflict of interest) that one of the challenge parties has been a friendly force in helping me in my blackjack world and has mentored me. If that is an issue for anyone, then what can we do to avoid it? Or, will BOTH the challenge parties involved deal in rotations? Who will "Floor", or police all activities of the event?
Also, what vetting, if any, will be taken to assuage any concerns of casino spies from finding a room full of AP's?
