If you've forgotten, here is the historical true story of that Italian hero, Galileo Galilei. In the 17th century when he declared his astronomical findings
that the sun, not the earth, is at the centre of the galaxy, church leaders scoffed at his claims. As a warning to others, the pope had four scientists seized, branded their chests with hot irons, before they were publicly executed.
This is the same fate that awaits you, unless you quickly get your thinking processes into line with the accepted ideas of the day, here. In case you need it spelled out, Mr Fred, the only way to be a long-term winner at the game of blackjack is to become a very rare beast indeed: an extraordinarily-good card counter and expert bet and bankroll manager. You got that? Good... Now let's hear no more of that namby-pamby bullshit you have been waffling on about some progression system. Why even John Ferguson has told you. (Sorry, I mean Stanford Wong)
You get full marks for courage and persistence Fred. By the way, I was only kidding there. Matter of fact, I am with you 100%. I believe what you say is possible. I also say this game can definitely be beaten by ways other than card counting, progressions or trackings. I'm with you, Galileo... :cat:
Since you wrote that, we know a little more about you and your computer background, Fred. You can only get away with talking progression system, here on voodoo. Even on Wong's FMB, it says: "Progressions do not give you an edge." But is he the be-all and end-all of blackjack knowledge?fredperson said:
