craps >>>>>>>>>>>baccar at>>>blackjack


except baccarat is kind of boring...craps is definately the most fun and has the 2nd best EV.

Ah...blackjack's the only table game I know how to play (knowing how to play means having a +ev edge or having the lowest -ev disadvantage). And I really think I could pull off one of the simple counting systmes like KO or Hi/Lo but only if there were 3 or fewer players at the table....more than that + the dealer going as fast as he/she does and I get lost after 3-5 hands. Maybe if I practiced it....but that'd be stupid since I already have such an edge at certain poker games and I would rarely travel to AC to play blackjack.....plus their deck penetration is always gonna be an issue and I would likely need to learn a more complicated counting system to be able to really count on it to make some money.

The problem is they catch on real quick when you start changing your bet sizes. That's why it's done with teams.

Yea...yea I know. I wonder if you just randomized your bet a little bit. Like I mean just changing it up by a little bit even when nothing's really changed + drinking something you brought and acting drunk. Prolly take a while to catch on if they ever did.


I've pretty much resigned to just playing every very once and a while with girlfriend just for fun though and maybe occasionally playing singe deck (again mostly for fun) where I think it's much easier to do this. [The floor guy though was watching me quite a bit when I was playing single deck....He let me play the match play when I wanted to though when the dealer asked if I could.]
