If Im Wonging What Should My Max Bet Be??

[sagefr0g]

hey guys, i live in canada and virtually all the games here are identical....
8 decks, DAS, resplit to 4 hands, S17, no surrender, 70-75% pen.

can this game be reasonably profitable?
i plan to wong out @ -1 and in at +3, using the hi/low

the game can be beat but it won't be easy. i'd wong out at tc = 0 sometimes after two or three decks (depending on the penetration) as well as going out at tc = -1 . you might consider wonging in sooner sometimes +1 but definately at +2.

best regards,

okay, so using your strategy, what kind of advantage am i looking at? 1%? and btw the game has ins. too. and another quick question... how much advantage do i gain by using the illustrious 18 indicies, as opposed to just playing BS

you can do your own comparative study if you like....
you might get 1% depending on various factors. check the link below:
