    For your sake, I hope you are playing double deck, not six deck or eight deck.

    And then, rules and cut are also a factors.

    I started in fall of 2017. Had a nice little start, then the losing started in April of 2018. Its been over 100 hours now and well over a year. I thought maybe the losing had subsided with 3 decent outings out of the last 4. Then I got my ass kicked at Mountaineer this past weekend. While walking out of the casino, for the first time I really started to question whether this works. Isn't the definition of insanity doing something over and over again, and expecting different results? Every session seems to be the same; I'm doing OK until the count gets positive. The "better" the TC, the worse the results. Then I get pissed. Rather than try to get back the lost money, I leave at that point. I'm going to take a break for a while because my attitude toward counting cards is negative right now.

    X2...even for dd, that spread is 'silly'...if you are playing a shoe game, drop your unit to table min (10-15) as stated and try spreading 10x your ramp...no joke...and lmk how you fare

    Dude, your sims are jacked. You need to understand all those settings. First of many: your game is really 5/6 S17?

    I posted a picture of what I was basing my shoe game as. I am not sure I know what you mean by 10x my ramp. Could you explain? thank you!

    Thank you, I am going to. I was too trusting of these and I agree, there is no way they are correct.

    so you are spreading 1-5 on a 6d shoe...fyi, you are wasting your time...don't let these many 'imposter pros' fool you...drop to table min and spread 10x (thats's ten times your ramp at each + count)...check back

    No, I can't...but trust me that 90+% of part-timers on this site have never been backed off...99.99% have never been trespassed...sans those that, admittedly,
    'camp out' at stores...

    ...spread, baby, spread...only way to win
