Hi Mike, Thanks for your responce. I find that the Pioneer offers the best rules. If you know better let me know. The first hundred is the toughest. Thereafter its their money. The only dandger is over-risking, never double up more than three times. What is hard is to be up three or four hundred and lose control because the the dealer suddendly beat you ten or fifteen times in a row. It happens and it happenes. Discipline and mental toughness and constant correct analysis. One last thing is not to play when tired or mentally depressed. Louie in Kingman |

Answer to jpk's question on doubling down on an 11 versus a dealers ace if the dealer has no blackjack. Yes, most of the time. One would double all of the time in this case if the dealer hits soft 17's. If the dealer does not hit soft 17's, then you double on an 11 versus an ace for 1 deck games, but not for 6 deck games. If this is confusing, simply double down on an 11 count always. It is either right or close to right for all normal cases. Do not however, double down on an 11 versus an ace in Spanish 21 games. |

Much in here about card counting. Card counting was better years ago before the casinos got wise. Now they discourage it by burning cards, multiple decks, not dealing to the deck end, and by watching players and prohibiting it. Worse, automatic continuous card shuffling machines which make counting useless are becoming common. Many of the California Casinos have exclusively continuous shuffling machines. On my last trip to Vegas, I saw maybe 50% of the tables with continuous shuffling machines. Clearly these new machines are on the rise, and card counting is even more discouraged. |

Louis, thats almost exactly what I do, @ The River Palms ususally, I'll risk 1 or 2 hundred in a day but play with their money most of the time, and they comp well, I never pay for rooms or meals there. |

System players; I play BJ on my computer 4 to 6 six hours every day. Every two weeks I go to Laughlin, Nevada where I play single deck-dealer hits soft seventeen-no surender- double on the first two cards only. I play $5 dollor table preferably heads up against the dealer. I play a very simple progressive system. Basically I grind against the house until I am fifty dollors ahead. Then at opportune times I use their money to gamble. A lot of patience is required and it is really more of a cat and mouse game. I don't risk more than a hundred per sesion and when my bankroll is 50 % depleted I risk the rest to bring me back to par. Practice, practice and more practice and wait for when the magic kicks in! Good Luck Louiy from Kingman, Az. |

winning at gaming is all about streaks and trends. you will have winning streaks/trends and losing streaks/trends within any given day. money management rules will assist in knowing when you should keep playing or quit, saving your bank roll for another day. this is my system and it works quite well. if anyone has a betting system...please share and i'll compare it to mine. |

I think london player hit the nail on head...money management will work. Card counting doesn't seem to make sense with the number of decks in the shoe. It wouldn't be fun playing bj by counting every card on the table with every deal. |

a question for those who are card counters.do anyone who count cards really make a living doing this because the casino's that i go to, it would be virtually impossible due to the amount of lunatics opening and closing boxes and people telling you how to play plus 6 deck shoes,what chance have you got.also i watched a programme a couple of years ago where a man from the uk with a photographic memory who could remember every card drawn from 10 decks of cards, he went to vegas with about $40,000 and in about 3 weeks he only won a couple of thousand dollars. i personally think that good money management works better than counting. |

If you have an eleven,and the dealer has a ten,the right play is to double down.why is it advised to hit the dealers ace and not double down if he doesnt have a blackjack |

For the first time in a long time, I actually won $$$ at Black Jack which was at the Showboat in Atlantic City. I think the trick is to get off the table when you start to lose more than 3 hands in a row. I used to love this game but I found a better one which pays me consistantly - CRAPS! Don't get me wrong, Black Jack is a fun game, but if you really want to tease your brain try rolling the bones. |

IAN;the rules in london are different to the american rules like the ones on this website.in london casinos you can't split 4's,5's,10's and you can only double on 9,10,11 that's why i say don't split a winning hand.if splitting 10's works for you then play that way but i always try to play perfect basic strategy. |

Just read your message "Midnight Gambler". Thanks for the statistics. So although both options will be favourable to me, I'm still better off sticking with two 10's. Thanks for the advice. |

London player: The reason I asked the question of splitting a pair of 10's is becaause instead of winning from one hand you will probably win from two. Should I just stick with the one hand of two 10's as opposed to probably winning twice from a spilt hand? |

the dealer's advantage is you have to play first. why not stand on all 12 through 16 and hope the dealer busts? |

I finally get a really good score on this game and the database is down! Haha guess I am now what ya call lucky; one time I was driving to my friends house to play poker and got a flat tire right outside their apartment. Well needless to say I left the car and played anyway.. I walked away with just enough money to buy some fix a flat, which didn't work! Believe in signs? |
