That's awesome. I don't count cards. Maybe I should. But no, seriously, I just want to stay away from the game altogether.

If I taught you how to count cards, would you play again? I don't think you should deprive yourself of your former outlet.

To turn a phrase from my man Wakko "going for overcalls in my overalls".

I think this hand is tasty.

Take him up on it. After having played hundreds of thousands of hands of each I can assure you cardcounting BJ is much easier than playing Hold 'em skillfully.

But the BJ variance can be absolutely from hell.

i'm glad you posted this because lots of posters here would autoraise that flop without thinking.

Never played the El Cortez...didn't like the "atmosphere" ...haha.
Most of my good results came in local/regional games where incredibly good games were offered at low limits and pit was almost totally clueless to what myself and associates were doing.

Alas, ownership wised up over time and the really juicy games are history, with a few exceptions.

"This is great. I'm glad jason_t is helping you."

This is debatable. Did you see his response in this thread? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah, jason_t isn't really good at poker.

He makes a living by getting poker players to give him money when they screw something up.

$5 everytime marroti makes a bad raise, $500 when Michael Davis plays blackjack, etc...

Sounds like a lucrative business.

I shall start one up too then. All you degenerate poker players with vices send me a PM. You can choose whatever screw up you want and everytime you make it - pay me. I am comfortable with anything really...just pay me.

Also, I will set up monitoring systems to watch you poker degenerates for I don't trust ya as far as I can throw ya. So prepare to surrender some privacy. PM me now while the deal is hot.
