Poll: Blackjack AP Playing Time

[aslan]

This is an anonymous poll to see how much time Blackjackinfo.com members devote to advantage play at Blackjack.

I like the idea of a poll-less poll. Let people think about what it means to themselves instead voting and engaging in arguments over terms. Call it an existential poll. There's a reason I quoted Nietzsche and Kierkegaard in the first pages of MB.

edit: You ruined it by adding an actual poll.

Is this actual table time, or time spent scouting as well?

Good question. It is an AP activity, but for purposes of this poll it is not Advantage Play per se, accent on "play". I would exclude it even though it's part of the "job." If you think this is wrong, please reply back.

PS--I think the same goes for back counting, but it's a close call.

No. I think that is fine. Just wanted to clarify, so as to compare apples to apples.

Haven't you people learned anything today?
Don't ask for clarification.
Don't ask for definitions.

Why are you asking Aslan?

I am curious how much time you spend on playing vs posting.

I think in order to get a good reference for the poll, we should first decide what the definition of a professional player is first. ICNT care to help?

Play? Who has time to play with all the posting that needs to be done? :laugh:

Since I have been a member, I have posted many of my trip reports here. You can search for them under my username mainly in Blackjack-General, and possibly in Eastern US and Las Vegas. Have you posted any trip reports? I'd like to read them.

:joker::whip:Hey, this poll has nothing to do with defining professional play. I think you're in the wrong thread, SOH. :laugh: See the thread titled, Poll: Are you a professional blackjack player? You will find everything you ever wanted to know about what a professional is, and some things you didn't want to know. :laugh: Now get out of here! :whip::joker::cool2:

I do not travel.

It would be a challenge to find your trip reports in your long list of posts. I would not dare to try.

A trip includes a trip to your local casino.

Below are some of my trip reports. I used the Blackjackinfo.com search tool. It really isn't difficult. Go to advanced search and type in a key word like "trip," "report," or "outing," type aslan as username, and specify "find threads started by user," and voila.

Really, you should learn to use the board tools; they come in real handy and will often answer your questions without initiating a new thread that has already been discussed several times over.
