    WOV is especially proud of the blackjack survey, which features the rules and limits for every casino in Vegas that offers the game.

    The list is about 5 years old. But still serves as a guide to the new playet in Vegas or the old ones who are lost.

    Colin suggests 100x table min.to lug around in cash.

    So $10k is needed to compete at the $100 min. tables.

    KJ mentions casinos are sensitive to pink chip bets.

    Im wondering if it wouldnt make more dollars and sense to play $50 min at 1 to 10 more than the $25 min. at 1 to 12 with an occational $450 exit bet.

    For shoe games, 100 x table min is awfully inadequate. $10K is better suited for $25 min table in my opinion. Also, the lower the table limit, the deeper the penetration normally. Everything being equal, lower table limit is often the sounder choice.

    I was talking cash on hand so a person doesnt run out of money in a positive shoe.

    According to the survey, the higher limit the better the rules.

    So $40k cash on hand for $100min games? That shrinks the list for me a good bit.

    I'd just bet more on pro sports.

    True, higher the limit, better the rule. But it is also true, the lower the limit, the better the penetration.

    If your "exit bet" is only $450, I think even a $10 or $15 table can accommodate that.

    Playing one-on-one in shoe games, a good shoe can last a very long time. Your max bet per round/hand is a better guide for the needed bankroll. .

    Im having trouble wrapping my mind around the exit bet. It seems one is taking an unnecessary risk.

    A backoff for me was like the "soup Nazi" on Seinfeld.
    It wasnt like "bye bye everyone, I gotta go." See ya later.

    My game is designed to compete within Casino Tolerance. Push slightly over lnmits for large bets and well below frequency standards. This way, if Im backoff, it's like screw it. I didnt want to play by your limited allowance anyway.

    KJ writes: The only person I broke this rule with was Moses. Moses claiming to play professional blackjack in Reno. The math works. At low limits. I happen to know as you probably do as well and many others that a player can not play any kind of decent limits in Reno on a regular basis, let alone years and years as Moses claims. Happens to be a very similar situation that I moved away from in Atlantic City. Just too small of a rotation and a "regular" or frequent player couldn't get decent money down.

    So while Moses Math worked, I didn't say anything for a long time even though I knew the rest of his claims were BS. Eventually when he started attacking me I did call out that his claims were BS even though the math worked. I sort of wish I hadn't because his math did work and it isn't my job to be the exaggeration police.....but ya know...sometimes things get personal.

    Tater says: I guess if Im a blackjack pro, then Im also a sports betting pro, real estate pro, stock picking pro etc etc.

    AP? Most definately. Why play without an advantage? Low limits? Good luck finding a green chip table to play. Let alone red chip.

    KJ has alot to say. But refuses to put his money where his mouth is. If he were stupid enough to ever bet or challenge me? That would be my ultimate advantage play.

    Playing within Casino Tolerance is vital. In order to that? You are going to have to buy CV Data. And do some homework.

    The game is merely an extension of practice.

    My home purchase in 2011 turned out to be the best investment in my life. It's probably the one Im most proud of because it was at time of being under extreme duress.

    The worst miss? I didnt buy another one down the street.

    Point is, blackjack is also about recognizing advantage plays. If you can do that? Pull the trigger and stay within casino tolerance? You will be fine.

    Make a living as KJ claims? Dyin aint much of a living.
