    Again... if you go all in bec the acct is +20, is there any GUARANTEE that you (instead of any of the other players at your table or the dealer) will catch BJ or 20? If the answer is no, then quit counting and wasting your time.

    It's obviously no but that doesn't mean anything. I won't go into argument cuz it's not the purpose of this thread.

    The number one main topic on this forum has everything to do with card counting, and you come along and tell a new member to quit counting, what is that all about? What is the reason for your participation then?

    You are backing the wrong guy here. What the hell is wrong with hard work? Get your priorities in order.

    I back whoever is right, and in this case, BHM is 100% right. Go ahead and waste your time doing your "hard work" without a guarantee of anything and let me know what that gets you. The OP obviously lost his ass counting so you see how well he made out.

    The OP plays online BJ...most of us here would never even consider playing online.

    Not backing him. He is him.

    Same guy, same M.O. I'm sure you guys can figure out who BJO was.
