Default Re: Is counting worth it

What cardcounter0 said. I'd only add, that if your top bet is below $100, play optimally. With your expectation, you really can't afford much cover or camo...but like cc says, keep your sessions short.

Also be careful of tipping too much. If you're a red chip player, you could easily tip away your advantage.

I've been doing it for nearly 2 years and have spread $5-50, $10-80 at double deck, and $10-50 at single deck pretty much with no cover, and never had a problem. But maybe that means I've been evaluated as playing a horrible game!

I understand you're still underage and have a couple of years to go, but if you are reasonably intelligent, its only going to take you months, not years to learn a count system.
