    Cvcx ?

    Have been counting cards approx. 1 yr, trying to build my bankroll, just had 4 losing sessions in a row - so I don't want to invest in CVCX currently. I think my bet spread might be incorrect. wondering if anyone would check if my spread is ok, or let me know what it should be? I play six deck, my bet spread is 1 to 5 units, I use KO . Rules are: DAS allowed, Dealer hits soft 17, No Surrender. Thanks, very much appreciated.

    For six deck you need more than a 1 to 5 spread. Think something like a 1 to 10 spread.

    Yeah, MWP. Why?

    It's not how I would choose to spend my time, but he can spread 10-50 and make $35/hr.

    Bullshit, more like $6 an hour on a six deck game.

    You might disagree with my sim parameters, or that he has the skills to pull it off, but I can work the sim to $35/hr.

    Back counting doesn't require a spread and you don't need to spread much to get the benefits of spreading. The more negative EV counts you play, the larger your spread needs to be.

    Try to find time to play during off-hours for less possible crowding. If you must play at full tables and you are waiting for a new shoe, sometimes don't start playing the new shoe and jump in after a few hands depending on the count. Hopefully, you piss off some of the ploppies and they change tables as you are disrupting the flow of the cards.

    Just like Three said:
