just diged out from my 390 hours neg variance and going up for some refill in my br.
i hope this helps
CEO'S1, above quoted sentence can have different meanings depending on the reader. The quote gives the implication that the player is learning the game "including index play" from a play all perspective which in my mind makes the game so much harder. Why learn so many negative number index plays if you are a smart player as you should be taking a break from play? No need to learn most of them if you play a shoe game and Wong out. One and two deck games is a different story.

Gee, thanks
I see your point. While I haven't been playing as long as you, I've been playing a long time. I use somewhere between 100 and 150 indices now. Why?
Why not?
As time transpired, I just learned more of them. A play would come along where I didn't know the index. When I got home, I'd look it up and then I'd know it for next time. Granted, in the overall scheme of things, it doesn't add a lot of EV, but it makes the game more interesting when you split your 9s against a 7 or A, for example.
Both of you guys bring up good points. My style of play more closely follows yours. You KNOW them for next time. I recall the first time I doubled 7v6, the first time I refused to split aces, the first time I hit 12v4 and then hit 12v4 twice. Index play is there for a reason.
CEO1, I think is playing the old 80-20 rule of business - simply stated as 80% of sales comes from 20% of product. That 20% of index play has the best and most easily accessible space in his brain. Other nuances to improve his game, such as the regaled FBM ASC, occupy the less accessed portion of his brain.
Further, the 3 of us have trained ourselves to handle multitudes of distractions with ease, not allowing bodacious ta ta’s, nice backsides etc. to interfere with instantaneous decisive and correct decision making, limited only by the various nuances we have all trained ourselves for.
CEO also said something about analyzing the advice of others - essentially from their perspective. This is actually quite interesting. I could carry on for some time, however, Don is impatiently awaiting analytical updates to the FBM ASC.
On an unrelated matter, does anyone have any experience with their stockbrokers office making a big fuckup. I’ve just discovered a misapplication of funds which will probably cost me about 11k with the tax man - Will the tax dept. allow a revised entry allowing the original clearly stated intent to go forward (requiring backdating). If not, will the brokerage people come to the party.
“I’ve just discovered a misapplication of funds which will probably cost me about 11k with the tax man”
To clarify misapplication - they did nothing illegal, simply screwed up by putting a deposit into 1 account versus another (both mine). The original intent was clearly stated by email.
Don - take a look at this video. I think you'll get a kick out of it:
