    How about someone asking me the same questions over and over again also or making the same comments about me personally again and again. It works both ways, don't you see.

    I have asked for constructive criticism. Find errors in my work or legitimate questions.

    Instead i only seem to get destructive criticism and attacks on me personally and my character.

    Apparently many people on this site are disrespectful and have no manners.

    I have never been personally insulted before I posted on this website. I have been respected by everyone.

    The only insults I get if from the readers of this website.

    They cannot find anything wrong with my work so they resort to insulting me.

    And when I give an comprehensive rebuttal to a criticism I am charged with repeating myself.

    How about not repeating the same question to me over and over again as I mentioned at the beginning of this post.

    Stop asking me the same questions I answered many times before and I will stop giving the same answer I made many times before.

    Also I am still waiting for someone to come up with constructive criticism pointing out errors that I may have made.

    Again, since no one has been able to find errors in my analysis or statements it is much easier to attack me personally which is totally unacceptable of anyone with any civility.

    Seems to me you’ve recently done some serious chest thumping, and then fizzled. Not that I am in favour iof serious verbosity,
    to do as you’ve suggested would be a travesty.

    Using all caps, Norm should have written, TL; DR. It means, Too long; didn't read, which is the case for all of your posts.

    No idea what your point is.

    If he hasn’t broken the rules, why the need for action. There’s lots of rule breaking around here to which you’ve directed no action.

    He might be boring, but he’s exceedingly polite.

    bjanalyst, you are simply wrong about the gain in cover. Any gain is likely offset by lack of speed, fewer playing hours, and errors. Lucky Ladies is better attacked with counts specifically aimed at LL. The game is nowhere near as dependent on playing decisions as it was 30 years ago. And worst, your posts are boring beyond belief. Brevity is the sole of wit.

    Thanks for the explanation of "TI DR" Nice to now that no one is interested in anything new and have closed minds.

    The purpose of this forum I thought was to share ideas and for readers to help each other. Not to have closed minds.

    I would have been much happier if I never posted on this forum at all. I am tired of being insulted and personally attacked for no reason.

    So I am asking to stop the personal attacks o my character that are totally unacceptable.

    BLATANTLY AGAINST THE RULES. And I have been exceedingly patient with you dropping less than subtle hints.

    It’s an Impossible random mathematical occurrence on a board that espouses mathematics. Why don’t you out Prick A, let me deal with him, and if there is Prick B, or maybe mini Prick B. To allow him, or them to continue, suggests that I’m a fucking idiot. I think most people would agree that I’m not.

    Your Other option to stop this, is to ban me.

    Using chips I can keep both side counts, AA89mTc and 5m9c, with no problems at all. The shoe game is slow and plenty of time left over to update the side counts with extra time left over as well.

    Using chips there are no errors in my side counts. I can play all day long with zero errors and no mental fatigue whatsoever.

    And as far as cover goes, I can still play while my friend using the stand alone HL has been backed off from many casinos. What else is there to say? I have never been backed off.

    Finally Tc = HL + AA78mTc is close the to the side count Elliot Jacobson suggested for the LL bet. Jacobson suggested a balanced LL count with the Aces as zero, the 2's through 9s as plus one and the Tens as minus 2.

    But Elliot's count can be broken into its component parts of two side counts namely HL and A789mTc. Eliot's LL count is HL + A789mTc which has a Ten count efficiency of 98%.

    I have used Tc = HL + AA78mTc which also has a Ten count efficiency of 98%. Either may be used for LL bet.

    The only difference between HL + AA78mTc and Elliot's HL + A789mTc for LL bet is Elliot counts the 9's and plus one and the Aces as zero and I count the Aces as plus one and the 9's as zero. For a Ten count which is need for LL bet both are the same.

    If you don't like insults, don't insult others with having closed minds. Not agreeing with you is not synonymous with being closed-minded.

    This is not as easy as you think. The software is limited. And, I had no idea what your "hints" were about.
