I suppose “not letting someone get your goat” is an art.
Your theories are most welcome, as is your reasoning, but why all the insults?
This is not a “duke it out” fight, or an ego trip, it is a (very interesting) discussion of theories surrounding proper Blackjack play.
Perhaps you can concentrate on the BJ and ignore the personalities, if they “get your goat”? This is not a thread about personalities, it’s about BJ. It’s not about you, or others, it’s about BJ. You tend to lose sight of that for some reason.
So, put on your “poker face” and talk about BJ instead of other people, and you will be doing just fine.
