New to the site but not the game! Any tips would be great thanks!

:grin: I am new to the site but not to the game! Dont know much, just what i learned from my pops! I got bs covered and am a good +/- count player! I can count one deck in 29 seconds, which is one second worse than thorpes best! So i got a sharp mind.:rolleyes:
:cool:Just lookin for tips to add to my plus minus count and plus minus basic strategy! Pops is old school and i live in Sardis, which is like in the middle of nowhere so I just know bs and a +/- count. I have not been one for reading books on the subject. I just learned what my pops said about certain Authors. However he is old and there is probably newer better books out now; although dont tell him that! So suggestions from senior members and executive members only please!:(
:cool2:My altered betting strategy for the count is never double with any negative count and only double my bet at a count of plus four and increase one unit everytime the count increase's after that and never bet more than 6 units! I go with a $5,000 br when i go playing fifty dollar minimums!:whip:
:confused:I have been told by many people that a two deck game is optimal for a bs player! And that is what i have had the most luck on! I have only had 7 lossing sessions out of 274, based on how many times I went into a casino rather than trips! I set a limit like pops says to, of $2,500 per trip. However I do not win it at one casino all the time, although I have, because the heat is unbelieveable when i do!:flame:
:( So any tips from senior or executive members would be appreciated! Thanks!:)

Ya think! This one has 267 winning session out of 274. At least he has lost a few. :laugh:
Not to mention the braggart style of writing, the +/- references, the lack of capitalization in places, the spelling of and reference to "thorpe", and the double deck game, among others. I'm sure it's just coincidence though. :rolleyes:

Out of fairness, I'll ban all but one of this guy's handles. It's up to him how long the remaining one lasts.

Come on. No one is taking this seriously. This is a hardened, jaded bunch.

My tip is...take up poker while you are young.

At the rate the games are going to sh*t, you will need to hc, next card, sequence, track and scavenge to make a buck before you know it. Forget counting.
