Counting Systems for Beginners

I've noticed the same in some of the counts and fluctuation and using bs also helps me! When the count gets bad I usualy sit out, go to the restroom if I have to. If I sit out I still mantain a count. What Also works for me is that I can make money with a little bank roll. I've been playing blackjack for about 5 years and just started using speed count! I've been in the hilton million,qualified and made it to the thrird table in the finals!! I won my second tournament for only 5000 dollars. I've played against some of the best! I have the software cvbj and been working with it and it's helped alot!!

Made these two trips just last week at a Indian casino. Ialso took a trip to vegas at the end of April and turned 10 dallors into 400, 60 into 600!!! I learned the system from Frank Scoblete's book Golden touch blackjack revolution! It didn't take too long to learn either!

I thought you said your FIRST visit was just last week - which would have been in May (at least where I am). How could you have taken a trip at the end of April and used this counting system too?? :confused:

Sorry

My First Try At The Speed Count Was 2 Weeks Before The End Of April At The Indian Casino. Then I Tried It In Vegas Then Went Back To The Indian Casino 3 Weeks Later. I Hope this makes sense Now? Sorry For The Confusion.

I have been considering KO Rookie, KISS I and Red 7. I am a pretty scatterbrained individual and sometimes have a hard time concentrating and dealing with numbers, so I am willing to sacrifice a little accuracy for ease of use.
Use the KISS-3 or Red7 or KO count with CA-BS (count-adjusted basic strategy). No indices necessary. zg

I would suggest not trying to count or gamble at all if you have a scattered mind, let a professional invest your money.. USB Pain Webber would be a good start.

looks like a shill to me, or whatever the correct word is for somebody who comes to a forum and pretends to be a regular person in order to get people to buy their products.. id say there is an 80% chance this guy is real, but the way he worded it it sounds like one of those get rich quick schemes.. how much did u say you made? "i started with only $50 and i made $10000 in only 1 week! it can work for you too!"

Here is a little tip about shilling: try not to advertise your product in your first few posts and try not to make it sound too good to be true, everyone will know you are a shill else.
ah! see! i know you were the first to call him a shill, but i swear to u, i typed it as soon as i read his post just and then i turned to the next page and bam, there you are saying the same thing

What counting system would you guys suggest for someone who is just starting to get into counting?

I have been considering KO Rookie, KISS I and Red 7. I am a pretty scatterbrained individual and sometimes have a hard time concentrating and dealing with numbers, so I am willing to sacrifice a little accuracy for ease of use.

I was looking into Speed Count and OPP, but have heard that they aren't really worth the trouble.

I have BJ Blue Book II and was looking over KISS Level I, but have a bit of a bias against the system for what will ultimately seem to be an entirely silly reason to everyone, and that is simply that I can't get over the name. "Keep It Simple, Stupid." Why? KO, Red 7, Zen. . . These all sound cool. But I would probably look to the ground when I said I practiced a system based off the acronym KISS.

Silly, I know. . . So you guys can avoid posts that say things like:

"That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard."
thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard! god your an idiot! what the eff man? how are you that stupid!! haha jk.. ya i have read lots of these types of posts and all i hear is "if you cant do hi-lo, go with ko", that seems to be the consensus.. hi-lo > ko > dont bother.. remember, the crappier the system, the more money you need (spread), so if you want to go super easy, you will need a larger bankroll.. at least thats what i have read elsewhere and on here.. but i have heard ko is the best out of all the easy systems
