You can call me whatever you like, it really dont matter to I. Im also known as G-Money.:laugh: I have alot of fun with it, and my friends like it as well.sagefr0g said:

Daydreaming while your Counting......hey I like that.....sagefr0g said:
.........................scratch head............................ ................................OH YA!......... Anyway back to the card counting thing, it really does take an Incredible amount of concentration. Its only natural to become a little disoriented from time to time. Its always a good Idea to put your practice skill into parts or cateragory's. Find the area, if any, thats giving you the most trouble and hone in, on it. Just play your game, and dont worry about winning or losing because thats irrelevant. Play according to the count, and treat as a Business, because that's exactly ehat it is, in and over time you'll do just fine. Theres been times, when practicing, Ive lost 50 to 60 hrs straight, and without bating an eye, won everything back, and then some, in about 20hrs.
right blackjackavenger took me to school on that one. i tryed it out and yeah breaks can make the differance.jack said:
lol i doubt that's gonna work with my wife. she knows after 30 years how full of crap i am. she'll wake up when she's good and ready.jack said:
yeah i know that stuff intellectually. what ever it is maybe some kind of primordial thing i guess kicks in and my mind wants to wander. makes my counting sort of stultified i guess is the word for it. but yeah practicing the skill part in categories sounds good. like keeping the RC so as if to make it like reading or typing so as if it's a mindless sort of automatic thing and not a drudgerous sort of chore. never have been able to attain that level of skill.jack said:Now Where was I........................................

yeah i saw that radio waves thing. pretty neat stuff. hope it works. sounds like they are on to something. much as i smoke i hope they hurry up with it.jack said:
sounds good but i got two problems with that.jack said:I tell ya what. Lets start a Marathon BJ session and see how long it takes each one of us, to attain 5,000$. Using only 10-100(1-10) spread.
The Game
2Decks,face-up,H17,Da2,DAS,Splitx4,RSA,5/8pen,No cover play,You and Ghost player vs Dealer(2plyr)BR,5,000$
I will be completely Honest with my results, as Im sure you will as well
If your up for this, I will set the Time Increments. For example, 2hrs a day.
(since I practice Super-fast, we should determine how many hands per hour we actually play)
Are you up for this?
Do you have a couple decks of cards and some felt to play on?
It sounds as if, your a little Intimidated by double deck? Dont be! If you can keep a fuzzy count with Multiple deck, then DD wont be a problem.sagefr0g said:sounds good but i got two problems with that.
i only know how to play 6deck s17das,nrsa,lsr 65%pen five players to where i can spread to two hands. gotta be a nickle table.
lol i'm a specialist in crappy games.
1:10 spread is ok.
five grand bank would be fine. ok for the five grand goal.
the other thing is i'd wanna use cvbj instead of real cards.
other wise fougetaboutit i'd be a lost puppy. :cat:
two hundred hands a day is fine. my cvbj logs testify to my veracity.
would love to be able to play double deck. if there was low table min's and decent penetration games in my area. there are not. so for me at present they are an impractical exercise.jack said:
Unfortunately I dont have cvbj. But I believe, the Randomness of the cards are the same. Unless you were planning on Attaching your results, I dont see a problem here. Even then my word is a good as gold.sagefr0g said:would love to be able to play double deck. if there was low table min's and decent penetration games in my area. there are not. so for me at present they are an impractical exercise.
so on the questions:
1. i 'd prefer not trying the DD. gotta hold out for six deck.
2. ok i could live with the $10 unit and min
3. hi/lo is my system (true calculated per 1 deck resolution)
4. i could go with the s17,NDAS (yuck)
5. that would be beyond my scope
i've conceded to some of your stipulations. can you go with the six deckers?
other-wise i fear the battle of the titans may never happen. the match of the century.
do you have cvbj?
Kasi you want in?
would it be ok to say re-splitting aces not allowed and make the max spreadjack said:Unfortunately I dont have cvbj. But I believe, the Randomness of the cards are the same. Unless you were planning on Attaching your results, I dont see a problem here. Even then my word is a good as gold.
Since I dont have cvbj to keep track of the # of hands played, we will keep the # of players, shoes played, & pen the same.
So here's what I go so far:
1. 6 Decks!
2. 75% Pen, okay
3. NDAS,S17,RSA,Nsr,
4. 3plyrs(Yourself Included)
5. (5 or 10 shoes per day) you pick.
6.Play-all(?)
7. 300 shoes Total.(30 or 60 days)
8. 5,000$ BR
9. 10$ Min Table.
10. Max Spread: 1-20 Sound Okay.
If theres anything you would like to add or subtract, please do so. Then will get started
Sure, no problem. I usually use bigger spreads, the longer it takes The Ball to roll in to my court, but the 1-10'ssagefr0g said:
(.56 HA) Ill probably just use a 10,50,50x50 bet spread then. If the 5,000$ was for real money, I'd probably go full Kelly: with RA play's:laugh: Thrown in with a little Wongin:whip: Yes. I'll set up a ScoreBoard or Something(Got it already figured out) we'll post our results, per every 30 shoes. I'll post first, to Showcase my Noble Sportmanship.sagefr0g said:
Right! It's pretty much the only way I practice. Bring your A-Game and give it the best you got. Lets call it a Challenge if you wish. Hell it might even be a little exciting. However, I see the object of the exercise, more like a Incentive to practice and comparing eachothers results with a friend:eyepatch:sagefrog said:
looks like we are on the same page. you wanna re-summarize it all? still need to know if it's gonna be no re-split aces. then we should be good to go.jack said:Sure, no problem. I usually use bigger spreads, the longer it takes The Ball to roll in to my court, but the 1-10's

Can I just play the crappiest game I can find on the internet that's re-shuffled after every hand, record the number of hands I play, and just use my Fuzzy Betting? :grin:jack said:
Thanks Avenger. I tried looking for this game, but couldnt find it. Sounds very Interesting. Can you put in, a url?blackjack avenger said:

Correct! Its best to set a limit, as we have done. I personally know how tough multiple-decks are, especially in a play-all enviroment. Its a challenge just to break even. Im actually shooting for a grand(3$pershoe) but without sims, im not exactly sure what my expected ev should be.sagefr0g said:
