    Biggest Single Bet Jump

    I try to limit my single bet jumps X2. However, in my red-chip days, dealer flashed my ace and I jumped from 1 (in a so-so count) to 8. Yep, I caught a ten. Kept playing as if nothing happened.

    What's the largest single bet jump you've ever made? Did you keep on playing?

    That is way too cautious if you are counting.

    Are there any studies/sims that indicate how often a TC jumps from TC 0 (when you have a minimum bet) to TC 4-5 (where you can get your max)?

    Seems like a softball to let people boast.

    Some people are not counting and some people have big bankroll for the game , others many are doing something else . Don't just make assumptions.

    For bet jumps I am conscious of what I have shown them and what they would expect a counter to do. Sometimes I want to trigger a revue because what I have shown them is not what they think a counter would do, but more like the exact opposite. That is when I make a big bet jump. I know my biggest was over 50:1. A counter catcher was dispatched and a revue ordered. The counter catcher said I was an idiot, and results of the revue took away the small amount of heat I was getting.
