Hi Ken, I’ve been practicing for te Microgame Classic BJ where there’s no peek. So BS says no doubling 11 on dealers 10 or ace, cause there’s a too high chance for BJ. It’s not a big problem, cause I stick to the BS. But maybe in a later version, if it’s not too much trouble, you can include an option for peek or no peek? Cheers from Holland.
Single deck, S17, DAS, 15 vs 10. According to your B.S. generator I should hit, but this tells me I should surrender. What it the correct play? Does the discrepancy have to do with hand composition? (I had king-5)
The correct strategy is hit. I checked the source for the trainer, and it does appear this is a bug.
In 2 or more decks S17 LS, you should surrender 15vT. In 1 deck S17 LS, you should hit.
The trainer is inaccurate, only in the one deck version.
Thanks for pointing this out. I’ll make sure it is corrected in the new software.
As the GameMaster writes, in the 6D S17 game, you should stand with A7vA at TC +1 or higher.
(Note that in H17 games, you should ALWAYS hit, no matter what the count.)
You ask what is the logic behind the index of +1 in S17 games?
Well, fewer small cards make standing better in two different ways. Fewer sixes mean less chance that the dealer has a six in the hole to give you an immediate win. And fewer 2s and 3s mean less chance of improving your A7 hand by hitting.
But generally, don’t worry too much about the “why” of index numbers or basic strategy. It just is what it is.
Thanks to this question, I also just discovered that my Advanced Strategy cards are missing this index! The next printing will correct that.
Ahh, that makes sense. I was thinking there would be no harm in a hitting if the odds were high that you would receive a 10. However, I suppose is there is still a good chance of receiving a 7, 8, or 9, which would put you in a bad situation with a positive count. Thanks!
Yes, basic strategy is the best way to play your hands, whether shuffled by hand or by machine, including continuous shuffle machines.
As for card counting, continuous shuffle machines eliminate the ability to count cards, but regular shuffle machines do not.
Was in Vegas May 20-23. Bally’s has 3-2, 8 deck shoe, DH soft 17 & surrender. Started at $10 and progressively increased to $25 before I left. No grandfathering of bets though.
WOW! Vegas is absolute shit now! And I keep dreaming about going there and trying out their blackjack tables. I currently reside in Hong Kong so I go to Macau to play and they have some, what I feel, pretty awesome rules namely: 50% surrender (unless dealer shows ace), black jack even pay (if you choose 1 to 1 surrender), Push on dealer and player blackjack, BJ pay out is 3-2, doubling after splitting is allowed, can double on any hand (some casinos only allows you to double at 11). And no tipping (house rules); if you tip, it goes directly to the casino.
I also went to Singapore Universal Studios and they have a casino there. They play Pontoon which is pretty awesome as well. All rules are the same except no “50% surrender of hands” but they have a nice perk of any 21 or black jack is an auto-win. So, for example, if dealer is showing an “A” and you have 10 and 2 and draw a 9 to reach a total of “21”, then you collect right away. How awesome is that!?
Anyway, I’ve only started playing recently. Good luck guys!
Glücklicherweise kommt diese Art von abfallendem True Count in 6-Deck-Spielen nicht oft vor, so dass es nicht so oft vorkommt. (Zum Beispiel müsste der Running Count in der Mitte eines Schuhs mit noch 3 Decks in einer Hand um 18 Punkte fallen). Weniger extreme Einbrüche kommen natürlich immer wieder vor. Ich neige ohnehin dazu, meinen Einsatz zu verringern, unabhängig davon, ob ich die letzte Runde gewonnen habe. Wenn Sie sich gezwungen fühlen, einen größeren Einsatz aus Gründen der Deckung auszulassen, würde ich versuchen, dies nur gelegentlich zu tun und die Einsätze zu variieren.
Um auf meine ursprüngliche Frage zurückzukommen: Wie oft halten Sie sich an Ihren Wettplan? Wenn der Count 6 ist und ich 120 £ setze, ich gewinne und der Count jetzt 0 ist, ist es dann besser, den Tisch zu verlassen, als 10 £ zu setzen?
Great! Thank you for your reply. I’ve been doing my homework and I’m excited to invest at the table as per the brilliant guidelines laid out in the lessons on here. I live in England and the casinos that I’ve been to seem to allow you to watch from the sidelines and join in at anytime.
Yes. Backcounting a table and dropping in when the count is good can be a very effective approach. It’s also known as “Wonging”, named for Stanford Wong.
Although many casinos now restrict mid-shoe entry to prevent this and similar strategies, it’s quite common still. For low bankrolls especially, this is a great way to play against the shoe games.

Schicken Sie mir die Zählkarten
Wie lautet die Verifizierung für "Dealer must hit soft 17"? Ich würde diese Tabelle gerne sehen, wenn möglich. Danke
Ich habe die H17-Indizes derzeit nirgendwo auf der Website veröffentlicht. Sie können sie auf meiner Erweiterte Strategiekarten wenn Sie wollen.

Here’s the accurate strategy chart you mentioned…

Can somebody please explain the logic behind staying on A,7 vs A with a TC of 1 or greater? Thanks

I plan on going to the Missouri casinos for blackjack. Are they beatable in the long run?

Danke Ken, ich habe den Rat wohl falsch verstanden.
Dann suche ich mir besser eine Stelle mit einem Mindestbetrag von 5 £ oder spare weitere 3 000 £!
