Magoo55, None of the things you mentioned will have any effect on
your chances to win. Here is a list of items that you should not consider
at all:
Number of players
Where you sit(position)
Good or bad players
The 3rd base player
The dealer
Number of players that leave
or enter.
The card that just came out
before you hit or stand.
You have just enough time before Feb. to find out that you may not
know Basic Strategy quite as well as you thought. Work on that.
When to leave the table....difficult to say in your case, but for what it's
worth: If you have several rounds, one after the other, where a large
number of A's and faces/10's have come out, you are more than likely
at an increased disadvantage and you should walk.
There are several things that can help your game that are more or less
extentions/improvements to Basic/strategy. If you go to this site:
casinocitytimes.com, read and study the articles by Renzey and Krigman
you will have the bulk of these enhancements. I think thats about all
you will be able to handle in the short term.

Order a drink every time the waitress comes by. BS will reduce the house advantage to about 0.5%. So if you're betting $5 a hand, 50 hands an hour, thats only $1.25/ hour. If you get two drinks an hour (tip $1 every other time) you'll come out ahead! Four drinks an hour and you'll do twice as well.
Good luck!
p.s. Make sure you know BS PERFECTLY. -
always sit at a table where the people and dealer are having fun...
Quitting when your ahead, at any point makes you feel better than the alternative... -
Thats funny Mr Ed, never thought of it like that but in AC where i play if you dont tip then you get an angry woman hovering over you for about 1 minute. So I usually throw in a couple chips to get her off my shoulder, so i figure that into my money management as well lol.
