Default Re: BlackJack

True. But of all the games you can gamble on, Blackjack with basic strategy has the lowest house edge.

If you find a slow dealer and a full table (low hands per hour), and bet a little more when the pit boss is looking and a little less when he is not, and occasionally sit out a hand during the shoe because it doesn't feel right, and always leave the table to find the waitress to get a drink (but never when the dealer is shuffling, just when he is dealing) and maybe take a long bathroom break or two, etc. (the comp clock keeps running, they don't clock you in and out constantly). And give the dealer a tip when the pit boss comes over to check the table, and take your time figuring out what to do on a hand ...

You often can get more back in comps than you have risked and lost playing.
