    In one of the more popular surveillance data bases about 30% were due to play at DD. 6 Deck was most prevalent. 93% were men, 7% women.

    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!

    Your first post was a set-up to show us how truly humble you are. Such humility....admirably unique.

    Then you should have qualified your comments - or you have stated that you expect your responders to be mind readers. These post were before i mentioned rv .

    maybe i can refresh your memory.. You quoted Ain’t going to be much fun, be very stressful, unhealthy. Hotel costs, car rental, flights, motels, factor those in and you would have to play higher stakes. It’s not much fun when you fly to, say San Francisco or Phioadelphia, take a rental car, drive an hour and then get backed off within the first 10 minutes.

    Don’t think you considered travel expense in your ROR Calc. It is an effect.Ain’t going to be much fun, be very stressful, unhealthy. Hotel costs, car rental, flights, motels, factor those in and you would have to play higher stakes. It’s not much fun when you fly to, say San Francisco or Phioadelphia, take a rental car, drive an hour and then get backed off within the first 10 minutes.

    And since i will be traveling th US and seeing things we always wanted to see in my RV i dont think i should count the expenses for food and fuel 7 miles a gallon since me and wife were going to do this before i became an AP. What do you think . Should i count expenses i dont think so because it is a dual purpose trip and my Bankroll is for blackjack only.l

    Zee, I can see you never been to the U.P. Here you can find casinos on the shores of Lake Superior. Water so fresh you can swallow it if you get some in your mouth while swimming. Gateway to National Parks and Forests.

    Bobbd, point that RV of yours across the Big Mac and drive across the U.P. If you have 4 million, piss on your expenses and enjoy your self.

    I did drive thru the UP once, got nervous a couple of times cause roads were slick in late May. Drove on to Seattle. On the way to the UP, spent a couple of memorable days on Mckinaw Island, rode a bike with daughter in back and spouse on her bike all around the Island on a memorable sunny couple of days.

    Yes, you can but the travel required today is immense if you're going to play at serious stakes. But you can make a good living for a few years until you burn the whole country down. If you live in a place like Las Vegas it's still good for either camping out at very low stakes play (Like 1x25 up to 2x180) which will get you about $100/hr in EV or very high stakes in a more hit & run style depending on the exact game and betting strategy but what games will look like after everything reopens is an open question. I still believe the best approach is to play 21 part-time. Keep your square job and go on a BJ trip a few times a month and play the local places around you in-between. Full time play is a beast and best done when you develop a lot of skills so that you can play 21, machines, comp hustle, make an occasional sports bet, do drawings, etc. a whole bunch of complimentary skills that will give you a bigger edge at less overall flux.
