Nice engine. It’s good to see the deviations from standard basic strategy chart that are on the Google because those charts (Google) created for 2 decks and no surrender option. I prefer the options not to split 88 against TT and AA, and not to split AA against AA but hit Aces.
Lo que todos ustedes se están perdiendo es que si el mal juego causó que en esa mano específica si usted siguiera las cartas en las manos posteriores, cualquier mano que usted gana en usted tiene que decir que ganó a causa de lo que Johnny hizo. No puedes tener las dos cosas, el mal juego te ayuda a perder y el buen juego te ayuda a ganar, y eso no es verdad. El mal juego puede hacer que pierdas esa mano, pero en la siguiente mano que ganes tienes que decir que fue el resultado del mal juego. Así que adivina lo que iguala. El mal juego duele porque si en esa mano específica tienes una gran apuesta y el mal juego te hizo perder, pero en la siguiente mano que ganas tienes una apuesta más pequeña, eso importa. El tamaño de tu apuesta en realidad dicta cómo te afecta la mala jugada.
Wow. First of all, this article addressed the losing nature of reverse progression as related to BlackJack (almost). It was simplified to large degree. However, the author is corrects in two major points. First being that in and of itself, Martingale will fail at BlackJack over the long run. Second is that a vast majority of players will not make the optimum decisions each and every time to increase their odds given ANY particular strategy. If someone does not understand the math, have the discipline and bankroll to try any system to it’s strictest mathematical constraints, and have a willingness to lose, he has no business experimenting. Most people searching this sot of thing (As the author suggests) are looking for a simple, quick way to beat the house. And thy will fail.
Most striking among the replies are the liberal doses of perceptual bias. ANYONE who makes a claim based on observed results is suspect. The human mind is not capable of correctly interpreting complex statistics from it’s observations. This is a fact. Make no mistake, your 9 or 38 or 21342345 trips to the blackjack table to try a system, and your recollection of results is skewed. Humans remember the extreme examples better than the more average examples. This has been proven time and time again. It is why math, specifically linear progression, is necessary to bear out the validity of any given system. One then has to have a mature and reasonable viewpoint to assess any practical application.
As far as playing any BJ game with reduced odds, or where you cannot see the shuffle, don’t. 6/5 is for tourists who don’t know better or care if they lose. Casinos who cannot or will not show a shuffle simply deserve to lose your business. This is a moral, not a mathematical response. As far as a mathematical response, it is ridiculous. There is no possible stack of a deck that can ensure victory over an unknown number of players. The deck could be juiced, meaning that the ratio of small cards to 10’s and/or aces is illegally modified. But any casino trying this is risking their license. You might see that in the Caribbean or some such place, but not in Vegas.
Hello Ken, first of all I would like to thank you for such a wonderful course, my game has come on leaps and bounds since reading it, I have been putting in about 4 hours training in per day for the last month and I have made all the flash cards for strategy deviations and have been learning them at a steady pace, it has occurred to me however that some of the flash cards may not be applicable for the set of rules I play here in the U.K.
They are:
6 Deck
S17
European hole card rules
Doble después de dividir permitido
Double any two cards
Unlimited splitting
No surrender option

Always follow basic strategy first when i give you a balance count for the ko count. 2-7 is a +1 and 10-k
Make the Ace neg-2
The cards are not balanced 6 cards versus 5. But the point value to both positive and neg cards as two groups are balanced.
Aces are -2 . But the aces are also more valuable of a card. That normally pays 2-1 for blackjack. So
As the 5 cards high 10,j,q,k,a represents 100% divide 100% by the six points . 4 points represent “66.6% . 10,j,q,k”
The aces 2 points represent
” 33.3% “A’s”
Never over risk your bank roll
On the little extra advantage. Cause
Remember. If multi-aces come through at the beginning. You will plunge fast into the negative count.
And takes more to get back to the positive. Why need to exacute basic strategy and follow like the bible. Deviation play can be a bit trickier than compared to hi-low. Count. Good luck….
Sorry you feel that way. I believe I provided the correct answer. Perhaps your annoyance would be more directed towards the casinos like MGM that offer the garbage games.
Yes! I know dealer and confirms shufflers stack deck against card counters, but I have ran into the problems you have mentioned. Once they realize what you are doing you will lose.
I have played live online blackjack and after 4 days I kept losing, so to confirm my theory I joined with another name and same thing after 4 days I kept losing.

The link on https://www.blackjackinfo.com/blackjack-school/lesson-19-advanced-single-deck-blackjack-part-2/ says this is NDAS.
This blog was… how do you say it? Relevant!! Finally I’ve found something which helped me.
Thanks a lot!

Exϲellent post. I’m goіng throuցh many of these issues as well..
Why oh Why would you boys and girls play online Blackjack, do you need to punish yourself?
What type of device are you browsing on? What resolution are you using?
Using a toshiba laptop with 1366×768 resolution. Also have it zoomed to 140% to help me see the action.
I figured it out. These are called floaters and can be removed by adblock plus. Thanks anyway

The goal in Blackjack is to beat the Dealer, not to get as close to 21 as you can.
sure pal
No, porque el blackjack y la reina roja tienen un valor de 10 y suman sólo 20.
