You should be able to find $10 or even $5 games if you find out the limit rotations of area casinos. A $10 game would make your spread almost 1 to 20 for the same max bet, almost 1 to 40 for a five dollar game.I am not sure what you could get away with.
PLEASE Tthree! Must you? Lets save the stronger count debate for other situations. If someone is contemplating making a leap to full-time play, there are much more important issues to discuss. Like whether they are prepared financially as well as mentally and BJ knowledge-wise to do so. Trimming lifestyles is good advice though.
