    Blackjack rules are simple, but some table game rules are so complicated that most dealers are not clear. I played a lot of heads-up Hold’Em, but the bad beat rules are not clear to me at all. One time there was a five-card straight on board in five community cards, but I also made a six-card straight with an extra lower card. I insisted the dealer pay me the bad beat, but the dealer insisted not pay because she believed it was a draw.

    If I've answered him correctly, and I have, then my answer was NOT to buy any hands that are correct to surrender. That's because those hands lose MORE than 75% of the time, otherwise, they wouldn't be surrenders in the first place. So, "you barely will make any profit" is an incorrect statement to make; the correct statement is, "You won't make any profit at all."

    Counting tens only sounds way more difficult than Hi Lo. Sounds similar to Thorpe’s early system which was klunky and nobody has used for 50 years. I think either you didn’t put much effort into actually practicing Hi Lo or you just aren’t suitable to card counting. My guess is it is the former.

    I have 3 days playing basic strategy, flat bets, as discussed, I have an advantage of 2 percent, my results so far are 3 sections of 4 hours of play, I am 170 units lost.


    Any recommendation?

    If you haven’t seen aces awhile, spread to two hands and double up on each hand. I am sure you will win.

    For each 3 hour session, I always keep $4000 in my pocket. So I am ready to lose that much in 3 hours.

    I understand, $ 4,000 in cash, but how much was your bet.

    Hello, the promotion has ended, black jack pays 2 to 1, but they have placed a new promotion with 20 percent cashback.
    I want to know if there is any advantage to be gained just by playing basic strategy?

    If you can state this 20% cash back terms in more detail, I will come up with a strategy to beat this game. Do you mean 20% cash back on your total blackjack loss?

    It is correct, in the initial purchase you get 10 percent and if you lose the money they give you another 10 percent.
