I know BS to a T w/ no problems at all

Its the stupid asses around me that splits stupid crap and doubles and plays like they should just send the casino a check and save a seat on an airline.

I usually do progression...

I wait until I'm 10 or 15 up then I progress a 5 chip after each hand and then start minimum after a loss.

That way I win and it continues to add up without using my bank roll.

If the stupid asses around you don't play BS the houses edge doesn't change for you as long as you are playing BS. What people always don't realize when they read about how BS will lower the houses edge to about .5% is that only YOU have to play BS it doesn't matter what everyone else does. All the times that someone stood on 16-10 and the dealer made 21 always sticks in your head. But the times someone stood on 16-10 and the dealer busts no one ever remembers.

If you are planning to play progressions you better take more than $1200 or you might find yourself broke after a day or so.
Progressions DON'T work.

Progressions DON'T work.

well they don't work for you because you dont "believe" they will. They work for a select few who "believe" they will. its all a state of mind!!!! positive thinking and all.

let the progressioners be:sad:

Out of curiousity,when did you last play at Tropicana? Several people i trust have told me good things about it in the last few months.Good rules,good pen,late surrender on $5 tables isn't too shabby.Have you been there recently?

Shad, I was there last week, I sat down and left after 2 shoes DD, 50-55% PEn. It was a $10 table and I did hit a plus 8 or 9 count I believe just before the cut card, I spreaded from $20 each spot to 125 and got the checks play yelled out and figured it just wasnt worth it and besides it was a crappy game. My little journal says I made $180.00 there in 10 minutes lol.

Nothing wrong with $180 up on 10 minutes

Thats sweet man.

You are a bit confused here. Try not to confuse progressions and The Sacred Flow. One is affected by your beliefs,progressions are not.The Goddess of Progressions is a fickle one. She will tease you,but in the end extract her dues.

The math says in the long run it won't work! Just trying to be honest with the guy.

What always gets me is when you make the most basic index play, stand on 16 vs 10 theres always 1 ploppy that starts up. But if you watch the game carefully he will be the one to stand on A7 vs 9,10 or A. So if my standing on 16 in a + count messes up the secred flow of cards, so does the ploppy's standing on A7.

Of course it does. Then appropriate steps need to be taken to restore it.
in the future,please capitalize The Sacred Flow.

I believe this is true correct way: The Sacred Flow™.

The proper steps of restoration are to stand on your own A7vsA at an index of +1 and you can bring The Sacred Flow™ back into alignment.
