Pretty sure you answered my question tho. So if I don't know the count I should always play BS. If I know the count, then I'm better off statistically playing the deviations
Okay then look at it from the other side. If you're counting cards theoretically you're supposed to play basic strategy at a true 0 correct?
So do you double an 11 on an A at +0 or do you hit? ...
Howdy folks. I had a question. I've been looking into deviations and it seems to me that either the deviations have to be wrong or the BS has to be wrong or I'm misunderstanding what it's saying. For...
Thanks. Final question: can I bypass making the per-count table if I'm running a sim that keeps track of gain for every round - and simply calculate Sigma((gain for round)^2)/(number of rounds in the...
You have the line-by-line SDs for every true count for every conceivable number of decks and rules in the Chapter 10 charts. Just square the SD to get the variance.

Hello everyone!
I'm part of an online casino comparison site, and I'm looking for players passionate about blackjack (and any other casino games) to create content for our page. We're aiming to...
It all depends on the casinos you have access to. That game you described, although it's horrible, with a bit of backcounting, a two-hand game, and the LL bet as a bonus, is playable.
Acceptable...
So it seems that if I bet 2x$200, I would first have to get the variance for 1x$200 and then add .5 to it? Unfortunately though the player may not actually bet 1x$200 in their spread. How would you...
Imagine what you just did? CaraCULO? Like vaffanculo?! Bad. Worse than sayin Don Caca’ (as Italians abbreviate names affectionately… Cacarulo becomes Caca’). Dont wanna see Caraculo again in public...
Hi Cacarulo,
Big thanks for sharing your analysis, very interesting! I didn't know about those two indices (EM & RA), but i'll do my research on that. It shows the importance of considering...
Unfortunately, the calculations don't change whether we call the bet a "main bet" or a "side bet." If you're looking for an advantage, you won't find it in this game.
Hi Don, thanks for replying. I previously responded, still confused, but I've re-read page 20 and think I am catching on. I would like to run an example by you and see if my sim would be correctly...
