all the time, [ my winnings > my losses ]ihate17 said:About a year ago I was sharing a DD table in a high roller room on the strip with a guy who was definately just the kind of player a casino loves to see betting $5,000 or more a hand.
He would split 2's and 3's vs dealer 10 and Ace. He would stay on 13 vs a dealer 7, hit 15 vs dealer 3 and double 5 vs a dealer 5 and must have won like 20 of 21 of these strange plays. I am sitting there getting away with a $100-$1000 spread on a closely watch DD game for a much longer period than I would play (besies the larger than usual spread) because as far as I knew, the whole casino world was concentrating on him. He was up over half a million in an hour plus, while I was up perhaps 1 max bet and though I was up, I was honestly wondering why I could not have the unconcious luck this guy had.
The doubles were driving me slightly nuts. Not that I had not been through this before, but just in comparing my so called timing to his. I would double 11 vs a 9 or 10 and the dealer would always have it in the hole. He would split 2's vs a 10 and land up with two stiffs but the dealer would turn a 6 and bust, every single time.
He leaves a big winner and I decide I do not want to play heads up and color up (truth is I was playing too long at this game and to play alone meant they would be now looking at my play if they had not earlier) Pit comes over and I remark that that guy was some great blackjack player. Pit tells me that the guy has probably dropped several million there in the past year or so.
So for a given period of time and betting enough money, any strategy or lack of strategy can and will win but over a period where variance levels off, this guy lost millions.

I never enter a casino with more than $2000 of my own money and I said my winnings is all the time more than lossesNDN21 said:How much have you lost using this system?
Every session can't be a winner and how much have you lost when that losing session finally hit?
Sounds to me like you won more at Roulette than BJ.
That's where you lost any credibility.Most of the time
I second this. Before I discovered card counting, I donked around at home with some stupid system of my own. Basically, go with guts, play all the spots on a table, and split/double vs. ANY dealer 2-6 on ANY hand that coun't bust.RJT said:Take the money and don't go back!
You've had a very luck run. If you keep playing using your system you will lose it all back and more!
Big wins inflate the ego, and it's easy to convince ourselves that because you've had a big win, you're a great player. This simply isn't true. Good luck can hit us all at one point or another.
