To play or not to play

Hi Everyone, I was involved in BJ many years ago. I learned and practiced a counting system in Vegas in the early 80's and then shifted my interests to pool and poker until now.
I'm seriously considering getting back into BJ but now wondering if there are enough places where a good game can still be found to make it worth my time.
Also there are way more systems now, I'm kind of leaning toward Hi Opt 1 but any thoughts are really appreciated.

There are definitely still games out there. Whether the +EV is worth your time is another matter. Check out this thread if you want more info. It helped me decide.

Personally, I don't think I will ever go full time, but I still enjoy playing. It's nice to know I have an edge. Who knows, maybe if I find myself increasing my BR through a massive positive variance swing, I could increase my max bet to a level where it could be worth MY (full) time. It'd be a long shot however. Have a good one.

Hi-Opt I is not a recommended choice.

Where you reside is an important issue.

as is the size of your bankroll.
