50% loss

[sandy12]

i have experienced more than 50 percent loss in my bankroll. i have been changing my spread everytime my ror goes above 1 percent.
keeping ROR less than 1 % i still experienced it. i am right now at 12k started with 30k. anybody who have been through this situation please give me some tips or advice. i can confidentally say my game is good enough, i get tested out once a month and test myself on blackjack verite also.

Something is wrong. Results seem almost impossible given 1% ROR and constant resizing. What are the exact details of the game you're playing, hours, and original spread?

i did not mention the situation exactly before i had 30k to start with in real i had a small lossing streak, 30k was a lot of money for me so i decided to buy blackjack verite and play with a bankroll of 30k.
this loss is in the software not in real casino but if it can happen in software what are the odds it wont happen in real.
In software i literally make zero errors as play stops if i make any error and i correct it then proceed, so there should be profit.
i have played 13551 rounds.
h17,6 decks with .5 deck pen, dd any first two cards, soft hand dd, no RSA, no surrender, 3 to 2 bj,
spread rn at 12k is tc 1 or below = 5
2: 2*10
3: 2*20
4: 2*30
5: 2*50
6: 2*75
7: 2*100

i am not sure but norm might know about this.

you might had some settings wrong or u are playing biased games.
if playing positive biased game is set to max. i think it keeps ur count super high mostly plus 8 or more at the end. and ur cut card is at half deck so u might be playing with more low cards even at really high tc, high cards are kept behind the cut card to give you really positive shoe. this is what i observed when i used to practice, try removing bias or making it litlle less.

Are you spreading one hand of 1 unit to 2 hands of 20 units? Or playing 2 hands of 1 unit at lower counts? If so, 1-10 isn't enough of a spread to get a strong advantage on most games, even with good pen like that.


It's not impossible you're just unlucky, but you're probably making mistakes. When you say you get tested, who is testing you, and what is the test? Most people who are leaking money quickly are making basic strategy mistakes.
