Tunica is basically unplayable, IMO. 50 pen on almost all of those DD games, and it's difficult to get any kind of money down without standing out.Originally Posted by phantom
I find that most casual players are afraid of single deck. Early mornings till about noon you can have the table to yourself sometimes. One casino took out their single deck because few would play it. They also don't like more frequent shuffling. $10 minimum that never goes up on weekends and I see people going from $10 to 4 or 5 green chips often.
these types of comments always gets me scratching my head. I have always used an ace neutral count so the playing count can be quite negative while you have an advantage. I never knew anything else so to me this is the simple approach. I guess it is all a mater of perspective. One way you play negative playing counts strong the other way you play them but don't realize it when you have an advantage which an ace reckoned count is fine at pointing out. You also may have a disadvantage in a positive playing count but the ace reckoned count sees it as a negative playing count.
I keep getting people trying to sell me on the latest innovations so I will buy or subscribe to their stuff. I always say I have no desire to be trained to need something I never needed and typically decline. I got by my while life without it so why would I need it. It is like the kids that spend a half hour looking for the remote but it never occurs to them to walk up to the tuner and change the channel manually. Some don't even know how to do it. I remember as a kid a friend came over and looked out the window ay my 80 year old neighbor pushing a hand plow. I had seen him do it every year come planting time my whole life. My young friend said isn't that what horses are for. I doubt most adults in the prime today could do what that old man did every year. If they could I doubt they would.
Anyway your perception of what is easy or hard depends on what you make your norm. No matter how bad kids have it they are happy because that is all they know. Only later when their horizons are broadened do they find out how others may have had a different norm. Ho your experience began will shape your perceptions and abilities later. Not many consider that when starting out. If you are not terribly driven you should learn the easy approach but some are obsessive and can master something difficult if they put their mind to it quicker than the undriven person can learn something easy. All through my education I was skipping things others found hard to be taught because I had taught myself or it just came naturally. I am sure most people need the step by step trying up from the bottom but I think the few that are gifted with abilities to multitask would find it easy to start with something more difficult and for them what would seem easy down the road is what many would think to be hard. We all see the world as a reflexion of ourselves so it is hard for me to see it as most others do. Despite knowing to the contrary it is natural to think others could easily do the same if they wanted to bad enough.
Sorry for the late night rambling. Hopefully it makes sense to you.
