Flameout in life and in Poker (VERY LONG)

[El Diablo]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have been using the "let it ride until you hit table max" blackjack system for the last couple of weeks and have made more money in the last two weeks at blackjack than I have in the last couple of years at poker. I think it is not 100% foolproof because of splits and double-downs, but it's pretty close. I think in the past I was busting out a lot in the middle of streaks when I would hit 13 and catch a ten. Now that I don't do that and let the dealer bust out instead, things have definitely been much, much, more successful. Any other tips you have to help optimize the system would be very much appreciated.

Please tell me that you're being sarcastic. I strongly suspect that with 12500 posts you are, but my lampoon-0-meter's battery might be low.

In Diablo's defense, at least the OP welcomed any and all snide remarks.

Maybe it's right to piss on a guy who's down to keep that kind of useless nonsense from cluttering the forum.

Then again, when an indiviual goes to such desperate and pathetic lengths to get some kind of therapuetic message out, I find it weak to slam him and don't understand the need to do so.

One look at the scope of the post is all you need to realize the shortcomings in the OP and the detrimental reasoning behind it. It's just too easy and feel there's nothing good at all about it. If it's foolish, why beat the guy when he's down? Not everyone is so perfect. Maybe I'm wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.
