You guys are just so off with your math, but it’s really not my problem
The fact is just about every player in the world uses the strategy chart, yet the majority still manage to lose, i wonder why
It doesn’t matter what the game is, poker, sports betting, blackjack, if i am a 64% favourite to win and getting odds of even money on my bet, there is nobody or stat in the world that can prove it is a bad play to get as much money as i can into that situation
Like i said, you guys are only proving that standing on 20 is more likely to win than drawing on a 10, that’s not open to debate, everyone knows that
What all your calculators and wizards failed to take into account is how many times you will actually have a pair of 10’s up against a dealers 6, thats the most important factor you completely overlooked, this is what’s going to offset all those other hands where you are only a 40% favourite to win
If you look at it this way
In any situation where i am the favourite to win and put as much money into the pot as i can, will i come out on top in the long run, of course i will, and by betting more will i win more, yes thats true too, so then how can it possibly be a bad play, well it’s not a bad play, yet even with that convincing logic you all disagree and seem set in concrete with your ways, and never doubt these mathematical findings which our fully endorsed by the casinos, the very place whose money you are trying to take.
I ask myself…
Why would the casino help me to take their money by providing me with the correct play to make in each situation, it’s like my teacher giving me the answers to the test while i’m taking it, seems odd
Why would the casino not allow me to double down after splitting my 10’s, if the percentages favoured the house then they would surely allow me to do this, wouldn’t they
The bottom line is this
If you play perfect strategy and bet the same amount every hand, you will lose, you might get lucky a few times but in the long run you will lose, it’s called the house advantage
That’s why you need to attack and get as much money into the pot whenever the odds are in favour of you winning, and that goes for every hand that favours you, not just the above example
It’s true that in the above example you should win 85% of the time
But
You lost $200
If you played it my way you would have very likely won $800
That is unproveable since we don’t know what cards would have come up, but you have to ask yourself is your play 4 times better than my play, meaning will you win 4 times more often, or even 2 times, of course not
I realize it’s hard for people to change their ways once set, but if something is broken then fix it
I’m done with this anyway, my way is better i already know, nothing anyone here or anywhere on the net can say to convince me otherwise, the ultimate proof is in the bankroll, you all can do what you want but i am done with this, there is nothing more to say, you are trying to disprove a system that has been successful for me for over 10 years without even testing it out first, now i wish i’d never mentioned it since i really don’t want you to know about it, but i have faith you will all remain cemented in your ways, so i don’t feel so bad.
take care
