I didn't find the demo that useful because of the way it deals with 5's. The full version is brilliant. Especially if you're used to one style of play and...
yes i agree other forms of investment would be residual income. it could be that way with blackjack and counting if you invest in a team however. otherwise...
what is it? Nick, I am like you. I originally learned Hi-lo and then bought the book on KO and I really like it (though I may switch some day to red 7...
It's the software recommended in the back of Vancura and Fuch's book. I've downloaded the trial version, but it is just that, a trial version with most of the...
i'd like to put forth my understanding of the use of ROR and see if anyone thinks i'm on the right track about it or not. i was thinking about ROR. thinking...
... I used Blackjack 678 for a while. The practice program is okay but not as realistic as CV. I also had problems with the simulator. It would always crash...
I have been thinking for some time now about easily adding a true count concept to the KO counting method. What I have in mind is this. Lets say you are down...

I had to laugh when I read this, Nigel. It took me five years of full-time blackjack play from John O'Groats to Lands End to get comped so much as a sausage in...
If you're reading this Lynne I was wondering if you might tell us what you chose to do with your winnings. I hope we didn't put you off blackjack completely...

Some fellow stands on 14 with the dealer showing 10. Everybody at the table gets on his case. They say: "You have screwed up the whole table by not taking a...
Listen to your wife. There was this guy at the table with me, and he was playing all weird. And stupid me stayed at the table. When he left I only had 10...
According to the books it doesn't matter what they play. The ploppies at the table have no idea what the next card may be. While a counter at least has an...
