Non so perché il GameMaster non abbia indicato esplicitamente "o superiore" in quegli indici.
Sì, 88vT stanno a +8 o più, e 99v7 si dividono a +6 o più.
Hi Ken, I wen to Casino a few time with won and lost, get almost even now. For the novice like me with $1000 in pocket, do you have some suggestion when should I leaving the table? should I set a wining and losing limit? or just one shoe or two or more?
when do you decide your are going to leaving the table?
I always have a tough time answering that question, because experienced players approach the game so differently. I always play games where I have a positive expected value, so the longer I play the more I make. But I also don’t want to wear out my welcome, so I tend to keep my sessions short, at around an hour before moving on. Winning or losing don’t factor into my decision much at all, except when the size of a win or loss starts to look unusual.
For casual players, wins and losses often do have a big impact on how long you play, and that is not necessarily a bad thing. It can feel devastating to have a nice win early in a session and yet give it all back and end up a big loser. If you aren’t pretty experienced at the game and can take those kinds of results in stride with just a shrug of the shoulders, you will likely benefit from having a win limit. Likewise, a loss limit can prevent a terrible crushing loss. If you are counting and playing a positive game, any kind of limit that makes you leave early will cost you playing time, and therefore some profit potential. But it is likely worth it for most player’s mental game.
Capisco che sia meglio andarsene quando il conteggio va a rotoli. Tuttavia, cosa succede se si gioca in locali più piccoli con solo uno o due tavoli aperti? Non è consigliabile sedersi durante i punti più bassi di una scarpa puntando il minimo e aspettando che si riscaldi? Sono nuovo, ma ossessionato. Non riesco a rinunciare al blackjack, quindi imparare a contare è l'unica opzione per me, ma la maggior parte dei giochi nella zona non ha abbastanza azione e spesso ho poca scelta se non quella di affrontare i punti bassi.
Saltare i peggiori conteggi negativi in una partita di scarpe aumenta davvero i tuoi risultati, quindi vale la pena cercare di farlo.
Se giochi a sei mazzi e non puoi fare il table-hop, almeno cronometra le tue pause quando il conteggio diventa davvero terribile.
Se invece puoi giocare a 2 mazzi, puoi permetterti di assistere a tutto.
I calculated my local casino edge based on the infor you give.
our rule is 6 decks, double on any first two cards, double after splitting, resplit all pairs, except Aces, insurance is available,dealer stands on H-17.
so my calculation is: -.54% -0.2%(H17)+0.7(ES)+0.14(DAS)=0.1% is this right? if it is right, does it mean player have 0.1% edge over casino?
thanks for all you have replied on other topic.
You are very unlikely to have a local game that offers EARLY surrender. It is probably LATE surrender.
Check your understanding here: La resa al blackjack spiegata
Dealer only has one card on table, player can surrender before the first third card deal out of the shoe.player can surrender on dealer’s ten but not A. so what is the advantage for player for this rule. if ES is +0.7%, what is the advantage for this kind of surrender?
How come when you split Aces and then get another Ace the program will not let you split beyond two hands that is a flaw that needs to be corrected asap. Thanks!
Yes, there is a problem with split Aces in the current version. A completely new trainer is in development and coming along nicely. I’m hoping to launch before the end of the year.

Hmm, I haven’t thought about this particular question before, and I am not certain how much reduction of bankroll risk would result from playing only in positive counts. But, off the top of my head, I suspect it doesn’t help all that much. Because most of the variance in counting already comes in positive counts (because you are betting quite a bit more in plus counts), eliminating the minimum bet hands in negative counts isn’t going to make much difference. Sorry!
Per 8,8Vs10, si sta a 8 e oltre o è specificamente solo a 8?
Inoltre, per 9,9Vs7, si divide a 6 e oltre o è specificamente solo a 6?
Non so perché il GameMaster non abbia indicato esplicitamente "o superiore" in quegli indici.
Sì, 88vT stanno a +8 o più, e 99v7 si dividono a +6 o più.

Ciao Ken,
I calculated my local casino edge based on the infor you give.
our rule is 6 decks, double on any first two cards, double after splitting, resplit all pairs, except Aces, insurance is available,dealer stands on H-17.
so my calculation is: -.54% -0.2%(H17)+0.7(ES)+0.14(DAS)=0.1% is this right? if it is right, does it mean player have 0.1% edge over casino?
thanks for all you have replied on other topic.

Early surrender against the dealer ten is worth around 0.24%, instead of the 0.70% value of full early surrender.
Thank you very much Ken, love your website.
Is blackjack dying, it’s hard to find a good game, h17, Csm and now way too many 6:5 games are casinos going to make blackjack a dinasor ?
I actually addressed exactly this in a recent blog post:
The State of Blackjack: Opportunity Amidst the Apocalypse?
How come when you split Aces and then get another Ace the program will not let you split beyond two hands that is a flaw that needs to be corrected asap. Thanks!

Any chance you have a variations chart for 6 deck but the dealer must hit soft 17?
The only place I have the H17 indexes at the moment is on the Carte strategiche avanzate.
