Hello everyone!

I have just discovered card counting and blackjack-winningpotential like all other newbies I guess :eek:
I became very fascinated by it and started reading all about the bj rules, card-counting theories, interviews with the pros etc.
Its truly very intressting and I started to train on counting drills and playing basic strategy. I got the program "casino verite" which I find great, and train every day.

I know most of the people who try this don't evolve or don't suceed in any way in card-counting, but I dare to say that I have an above-averge mind, especially my memory is slitghly gifted. At least I want to give it a serious try :rolleyes:

So now me and a good friend of mine train every day, and are looking forward to try this as soon as we are ready. We are going to simulate a casino-scenario and also try to play with loud music in the background.

My questions for you, is there something you recommend for us to do? Like drills, or something we have done wrong? Also, what really is the correct betting strategy? I have found this one only:

TC= 2 or 3 = 2* base amount
4 or 5 = 3* base amount
6 or 7 = 4 *base amount
etc...

I live in sweden, in a small town for US standards (around 300 000 people) but we have a few spots to play. But they are not serious and I highly doubt they will spot card counters.

I would be sooo grateful for any tips or suggetions, thank you!!;)

There are lots of drills in Casino Verite that are very helpful. There are also some drills in the Free Counting Resources thread at the top of this page. You can find lots of links to practice drills and counting articles there.

That spread is too slow and won’t earn much money. You should hit your maximum bet around +4 or +5. There are some articles about bet spreads in the link above and you can search this forum for more examples of how people bet.
