Welcome to reality (mildly sarcastic)!
I have to disagree regarding spreads. This is certainly not a “one size fits all” answer. Example: I’ve been playing a pretty good DD game over the last few trips, spreading 1x25 to 2x500. Mediocre rules, but good pen. Not only was spreading 1-40, but I was also spitting tens (and re-splitting if given the chance). My EV was north of $300/hr and probably closer to $400/hr with some of the dealers who were cutting really good (75% or better). This is only one example of many.
Now did I get backed off from that property? Yes. But ask me how many hours I got... 45 (cumulative). I easily generated over 15K in EV there and when you add in the machine stuff I did as well, I’m sure my EV was a little closer to 17K. Now it’s time to move on to the next joint.
For me, using 1-20 or 1-40 spread is my M.O. You’d be surprised how places allowed me to get 20, 30, 40+ hrs while utilizing these aggressive spreads. Eventually they will back you off and there’s no denying that. But I can assure you that almost no one is going to give a shit about a 1-15 spread in red chips. If your casino is sweating that action, then you need to find a new casino.
