Default Re: Blackjack Strategy

Uh, how bout the simple actaully practical explanation? Eventually you WILL have a losing streak which , based on your system, would call for you to bet more than the max bet allowed in the game. When this happens, you will be unable to recoup your losses - which will in fact be more than your total wins prior.

If you had unlimited money and the casino was willing to accept bet of any size, your system would in fact work. Neither of those two factors are true.


While your odds of losign 10 bets ina row are small (~0.1%), if you play long enough, it is guaranteed to happen. If you started at $1, you would need to bet $1024 on the next wager - well above the table limits.
