    Don't know I've added much that you may not already know, but in today's environment, you have to look to more unconventional areas to earn significantly higher returns with your non-blackjack portfolio, separate from simple bank accounts or risky non-insured investments.

    Except the question was specific to what to do with the portions of your blackjack bankroll not currently in play, hence my emphasis on bonds. Yes, I have a portion which s in a riskier end of the bond market, but I understand the risks and rewards so use it to mitigate the other risks of low yield investments. Right now, inflation risk is not a big deal but the portfolio isn't meant to be period specific, it is meant to be relatively stable and liquid as a backup for the cash needed to sustain the periodic bj draw downs.

    I have other portfolios for non-blackjack related monies, which are more equity and real estate oriented.
