Dewayne: wonging out question
Generally, when I wong out, it seems to look unnatural if I just won the hand. So usually I will keep playing until I lose a hand. Does losing that last hand every time cost me anything ? or is it just made up for in future shoes?

It costs a tiny bit, not worth talking about, and is great for cover. But, although this is simply an emotional response and not a mathematical one (which I've just given you), it sure does feel great to reel off five or six winning hands in a row, in a negative count, while waiting to finally lose one! :-)

Yeah, that happened to me the last time. I won 3 in a row when the count went to just under -1 tc. Then I lost the 4th hand but the count went back up to 0 tc, and I kept playing losing a doubled split and gave it all back plus some. That leads me to another harder question, was I correct in still playing ( because the count was no longer negative) or should I have stopped based on the prior negative count?

You always play based on the most current information you have. If, while playing for cover, the count reverts to playable, then you play on (and be thankful for your good fortune! :-))
