    Stick with one hand. I can't see you emotionally and mentally being able to successfully play two hands at this game yet. You have a hard enough time putting your normal max out there. Increasing your average minimum bet will hurt your game more. If you get to where you can put your max bets out there and play them correctly, then starting off the top with two would be OK. Your score is already compromised by your max bet playing and betting decisions, it doesn't need to be decreased further. The added variance would not be good on your psyche either.

    in the particular small city casino, few folks play the one DD game and max bet exceeding $200 draws huge Pit attention. The same rule also happens in Tunica.

    I am am thinking that if I play 2 x $50 as long as the count stays positive TC+1 or neutral, drop to one hand of $25 at negative count, play 2 x $100 at TC +2, 2 x $150 at TC3 and higher, I should come out ahead.
