I've only gotten better at keeping the count as I've gone along and yet lose every time I raise my bets. We're not talking some bad luck here, it's been endless for weeks. I'm baffled. I did better when I knew nothing about the game. It has to be something I'm doing but I don't see it. I'm doing it right as far as everything I've learned after nearly a year. What am I missing?
What are you doing wrong?
First off, you might want to tell us more about you game...
What System are you using?
How many decks are in play?
What are the rules?
What are the conditions like(penetration and players) Hand Per Hour?
What is your bet spread and betting strategy like?
How many hours have you been experiencing bad luck/variance?
Are you sitting out neg. counts?
How many deviations?
Deck estimation?
As you can see there are many variables that can affect the results of your game, so you kinda have to be more specific when you ask the question "what am i doing wrong?"
They say its better to just play "basic strategy" than it is to count and make mistakes...
Note however; that even IF you are doing everything right and playing a perfect game bad variance "can and will" dominate your results for hours and hours on end-even possibly for weeks...Even with perfect computer play a run of bad luck can last up to as much a 10,000 hands...
Even today, i still have a hard time understanding how massive and long the swings are in this game..
