r3vbr, thanks for the suggestion, but I am trying to stop playing BJ completely, I don't want to learn how to beat it. I would love it if I could get to the point where I never played another pit game for the rest of me life, thats the goal.

I don't really like the ups and downs of gambling. But when playing winning poker I'm willing to suffer through them knowing that in the long run I'm trending up. So, it's bad enough having to suffer that emotional whipsaw but to pay the damn Casino for the privalege of doing it is just nuts. That's essentially what I'm doing if I play House Games.
If I'm betting $50/hand, -1% edge, 200 hands an hour at blackjack I'm losing at a rate of $100/hr. That's what I'm paying the Casino for the privalege of feeling lousy a good part of the time after I'm done. Playing 50-100 live holdem I fight tooth and nail to maybe achieve a $100/hr win rate. And here I am at the blackjack table just pissing away that earn?
Playing a hand of -EV Blackjack, or making a bet on any House Game, makes about as much sense as raising under the gun with 7,2 offsuit. I wouldn't do one. Why should I do the other.
