    Wonging out at -1 TC

    Have a question on wonging out at tc -1. Let's say the rc is -1 after 1 deck played in a 6 deck game. Tc will be -1 too, because we floor the tc. Will you guys Wong out immediately or will Wong out when rc is -5 after 1 deck played in a 6 deck game?

    IMO, wonging out at TC -1 after 1 deck of a 6 deck game is too soon, unless you're counting an adjacent table and it's positive and you can join it immediately. See BJA3 for info on optimal departure point. I'll leave it to Don to post the page numbers

    P. 360, for one. And, it actually says to leave.

    P. 362 still says to leave, even with a delay.

    Leave with an RC of -1 after just one deck? How often do we have another shoe nearby about to start so we could hop over. Leave is absurd in a real casino, just play it or take a phone break where you stand by your spot and text or call someone. See what the round at RC-1 will do.

    I have never left at TC-1 before 2+ decks are played and usually drop to one hand of minimum bet even at TC-2 and wait a round.

    Well, I guess that settles that!

    Some people play in casinos that have more than two tables.

    I just returned from a typical trip. Unless I want to play with the hordes at low level, slow side bets etc. Etc, I play higher limit tables. Four of the venues, high limit min was 25 with exactly 1 table open, and played 90% plus heads up. One of the venues was min 50, with exactly 1 table open.

    I’ve said many times that my style is essentially play all. Don’t really have whole lot of choice. Accordingly, I learned hordes of negative indexes.

    Mind you, I left 1 venue, because my 3rd straight dealer, anD especially the last, we’re painfully slow.

    In my neck the the woods, you gotta make that one look like an accudent - oops, I thought I was hitting 16. I can’t Sound stupid, cause they know I’m not.

    Recall doing that snagging a 4, commenting - Gee, I’m so embarrassed. Recall another occasion, while talking to a games manager, he exclaimed - you just hit your 12 v 5 - clearly I saw something else, i said. The possibilities are endless.
