Krantz,

I like you but lol @ upping the max bet to $20k w/ $80k in your pocket!

[/ QUOTE ]

well he knew they wouldn't go to 80k obviously, he picked an amount he thought they would get

also 4bet downswings never happen in blackjack

i change our flags to venetian 5k chips and we roll over to a 10k max bet table. we try to ask them to raise the max to 20k but they won't do it because i don't have established playing history there. it's an old fashioned game of chicken.

[/ QUOTE ]

Huh? I don't get this. So some unknown whale can't just walk in and have them raise the limit? Why wouldn't they do this?

[/ QUOTE ]

yes, please explain that stupidity

[/ QUOTE ]

Fear of card counters. Hence they don't raise it for unknowns.

[/ QUOTE ]
Sad, but likely true. The pit isn't smart enough to realize if you flat bet table max, it's near impossible to gain an edge in any BJ game with more than 1 deck, even for the best BJ player in the world.

BRAG: I R up 22k on BJ for the year.
BRAG: I used to be able to hang with krantz on the poker tables.
BEAT: No longer. The kid growned up, son. Gratz on baller status.

Now, if you REALLY wanna do blackjack, hit me up next time I am in LV. I am ITCHING to spread 1-20 in a double deck game up to 10k and get away with it!

I like lapoker's idea.

Is Krantz young? I don't know, but if he is.

Sit down at the biggest table you can find in the pit (probably $200 min? @ a nicer hotel?) and start betting the table min after getting carded. Once you get drunk and hit a downswing pull a wad of 80k or a bunch of flags and yell that, "Now it's time to gamble for real" and watch everyone around you gasp.
