Everything gamble does is +EV (including super fun 21 single deck BJ)...the only thing -EV is the endless hitting on of cocktail waitresses and other food service industry employees alike [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I can vouch for this after only two excursions with Gamble at a poker table.

Super Fun 21 Single Deck Black Jack was def -EV for me on Saturday...the straight single deck was where it was at..

...Hitting on waitresses etc for me this is like practice swings in the on deck circle...you not really taking a full swing at it kinda warming up....getting ready for the actual at bat...

...So generally I will say some of the craziest things I can think of just to illicit some type of reaction because I guarantee theyve heard pretty much everything else

..I would also like to thank the man who actually asked if he should wait to come in while I was in the midst of a monsterous run and went to the table next door...I always ask before I sit when someones one on one and seems to be doing well and Im grateful he did also..

Don't tell me, let me guess. You also frantically shout "SAME DIE! SAME DIE" when one goes off the craps table. You bitch at BJ players in front of you who hit when they shoulda stood and bust with a ten because they took the card that woulda busted the dealer. You play your lucky numbers at roulette, keno, and/or state lotteries. You start playing any hold-em hand with a 4 in it when a pair of 4's is on the board twice within a 10-hand span. When picking odd man out by flipping coins, if all the coins land tails up you proclaim "Oh man, that's a goocher" and get hyper about the doom about to befall you. Oh... and cherry Pez is your favorite food.

Am I close? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

..I hate craps...

..I bitch at BJ players who are my friends who hit 5s 1st 3s because there count said to and busts the table...but never against someone I dont know....I just wont play til they bust....

..I will play any 2 cards at any point in time but not because theres a run of 4s (but 4 is my lucky number

...Ive never used the word "goocher"

...but I am a standard superstitous degenerate gambler who has learned to curb some of my mental issues....

some mid decks will allow mid deck entry...most do not...

spread limits?? if you mean alter your bet then yes...and you can play multiple hands but it usual twice the table limit on each...ex $15 min 2 $30 bets...

ewe!!! you paid for a meal in a casino? That's negative ev. Why not get it comped?

Another MAJOR negative ev play is short pay single deck blackjack on the strip. Single deck blackjack on the strip only pays 6:5 on blackjack. That sucks and is not worthwhile. You're better off playing double deck or a shoe game that pays the correct 3:2 on a blackjack. Not to mention that Wynn has surrender on their shoe game.

Think about this. On average your dealt a blackjack every 21 hands. Let's say it's a fast game and your getting 100 hands per hour. That's approximately 5 blackjacks in an hour. Let's say your flat betting 5 dollars a hand. With the full pay blackjack game (3:2 on blackjack) you get $7.50 everytime you get a blackjack. So, in one hour you get 5 blackjacks which gives you 5x7.50=$37.50. Now in the short pay blackjack game (blackjack pays 6:5) you get 6 dollars for every five dollar blackjack. So we have 5X6.00= $30.00.

So as you can see you get ripped off $7.50 per hour for every five dollars your betting. If you're flat betting ten dollars your losing $15.00 per hour.

Just say NO to short pay blackjack (where blackjack pays 6 to 5) and play the full pay blackjack game (blackjack pays 3:2)!

Thank you.

JB
