    Hitting 12 vs. 5 or 6 is generally held to be -1 or -2 depending on the count utilized.

    I have been 86'd and trespassed numerous times.

    Nowadays, cumulative win is their primary guideline.

    moses,

    Cumulative win means CUMULATIVE.

    You are referencing a single session win.

    Hitting 15 or 16 vs. any dealer stiff is a RARE play.

    It takes a VERY negative count in order to do so.

    You have a minimum wager out so your e.v will

    not be much improved whichever course you choose.

    A book said not to win over 30 units; but it's hard or perhaps even inadvisable to leave a heavily positive deck. The same book's author writes about sitting out the positive deck: after all the driving and parking and all of the losing sessions, to walk away from a great count aches.

    This must be a typo. Even for single session

    No he attacks SD games exclusively. A 3:1 spread is pretty aggressive in the better games . Sessions must be short but I still think his win cut off is too conservative. He must assess heat for himself and act accordingly.
