Come play me then. im talking about pitch. i dont know a damn thing about shoes...and I dont care. I will give you the same game as El Cortez without the "clumping." Im willing to put my money where my mouth is. Are you? HiLo, straight up. 50% pen. 1 to 8 spread. knock yourself out.
We both knpw I could drop you like a bad bkfst from the dollar menu at McD. you start messing with these casinos. What do u think they could do?
Common sense. If you don't get pen. You can't win.
That shit doesn't work either. Maybe in the 80s for someone too lazy to actually track the cards.
Good luck wonging in and out of a pitch games nowadays. Yes, please loan me $3,000 so I can go to a camp and shake Tommy Hyland hand. Maybe I will get better cards. I don't give a fuck about what someone did in the past. I only care about what I'm doing today.
I couldn't give two shits about what anyone does or thinks. But if you think the casino is going to offer a pitch game where any swinging dick that ever read a blackjack book can waltz in with HiLO and shove it up their asses for $100K a year? You're crazier than Flash. What I do, isn't really complex for anyone with a half of brain. But it IS the difference between winning and losing as well as playing today and tomorrow.
Tarzan, Smarzan. Last I heard he still giving the 6 the same credit as a 9. Reducing the lowest column to zero is different that knowing exactly what is played vs what still remains. I guess it's suppose to be a better way of guessing. So he claims to be able to just sort of wing and count the 23s,45s,67,89s, separately over 6 decks? C'mon man. I can do it over one. But what's the point? The information from that isn't of much use. Now, go 2-4s, 5-7s, 89s and you have something of value that will allow sound decision making.
Thank you. I will with or without your permission. It will be my own. Not some shit I read out of a book.
Not only will I say this. But I will be the house against your HiLor's in El Cortez pitch games straight up, 50% pen, 1 to 8 spread double deck. In other words, I'm willing to pit my years of experience and extensive research against your forum rhetoric.
STOP arguing like a woman.

What the fuck is the matter with you Moses? I have no idea what this is all about. I guess some kind of challenge. Like I am supposed to put hi lo against whatever count you play in some kind of contest? What the fuck? I don't care what you play. I hope you have success. Matters not to me.
All I am saying is stop saying hi-lo doesn't work. That is just factually wrong proven by thousands of players and teams of players over 50+ years.
Not that it matters, because I have no intention of meeting you for any kind of challenge or contest. I play to make money. I make a living at this. I don't care about your goofy need for a pissing contest. Like I said, not that it matters, but where did you ever come up with this bullshit that I play 50% penetration? El Cortez double deck penetration runs anywhere from 60% to as high as 75%. On occasion I have played 80%. The minimum penetration I will play on any double deck game is about 62-63% if I have a heads up game. With 1-2 other players the minimum I play is 67%.
Moses, stop with these challenges bullshit. I am well aware of your challenges and threats and shit. On another forum you threatened to come to Las Vegas and shoot me. You called Norm Wattenberger at his home multiple times threatening him. I have no love loss for Norm, but you are deranged.
This is the last time I am going to tell you, if you want to have civilized discussions as you have for some of your time here, I am willing to engage. If you travel down your usual path of threats bullshit, we are done. I will simply block you and treat you like the others trolls you are beginning to act like. Your choice.
And I'm saying it doesn't work in today's pitch games. I'm willing to be the house because this is about the 10th thread you've started to complain about cheating. Yet, refuse to do anything to improve your game. So you're going to fuck up my game in order to force the casinos to play fair? Maybe, maybe if you get 75% pen. But that doesn't come without a pit boss on your ass.
I make money by spotting value trends. I see being the house against you with HiLo in double deck as an excellent value.
Stop being so dramatic, drama queen. I never threatened to shoot anyone in my life. All I'd have to do is blow on you and you'd run like a little girl.
I called Norm three times within about a 15 minute period after 5 years of dealing with Flash's bullshit, threats, and non sense. Norm claims he doesn't know, never met, or ever heard of Flash or T3. Yet Flash says they were ass hole buddies. I find that just a little hard to believe considering those two dominate that forum with over 20K posts insisting on their rules their way. "This forum is our town." Flashes said. So I called the Mayor. Anyway, it's clear Norm is a pussy because he'd just hang up. So that was that. Flash got my email through Norm's forum and was sharing it with others without my permission. nuf said?
Maybe. But I'm not the one writing stuff on a forum I can't, won't or don't have the balls to back up.
I don't give a fuck what you do. You clearly argue like a woman. IF you continue to write these threads that continue to weaken my game and rules, then yes, I will be responding. Protecting my game is simply part of my job. A very important one.
Nightshifter made a claim that seems suspicious to me...
"rather odd why they use an ASM on single and 2 deck games when the dealer can actually shuffle faster"
In my experience with ASMs, there are 2 packs of cards used in the game...the pack that's on the table, and a second pack of cards in the ASM, already shuffled.
After the last hand of the pack is finished, the dealer puts the current pack into the shuffler, and takes out the shuffled pack that was already in the ASM.
How can a dealer shuffle faster than cards that are already shuffled?
Or maybe I'm mistaken about the 2 packs of cards?
Hi-lo can absolutely beat a pitch game. Is it the best option for them? No. But to say it won't beat them is absurd.

"More importantly, mickey thought 8-4 was two games over .500. Argued about it. C'mon, man. Nothing can top that for math expertise. If GWAE ever has you on again, you can be sure I'll be calling in with that gem.'Nuff said." REDIETZ
Interesting coach belly. I interpreted Nightshifters comments differently than you did. Here's the quote again: "rather odd why they use an ASM on single and 2 deck games when the dealer can actually shuffle faster..." His actual quote ended in three 3 dots. I am not sure what that is about. I always thought that mean there is more to it, or a partial thought/statement. But I am not going to guess Nightshifters meaning. There is no doubt his writing style is difficult.
So anyway back to the quote. I interpreted that he was saying he found it odd that they used the ASM on single and doubled deck games that the dealer could shuffle faster. Not faster than the machine, but rather faster than the 6/8 deck game shuffle. The 6/8 deck hand shuffle takes about 3 minutes. That is 3 minutes of down time for the casino. The double deck game hand shuffle takes 30 seconds.
THAT is supposed to be the REAL benefit of ASM for casinos, less down time. And because they machine cost money on an ongoing basis (must be leased), many casino only use them on the shoe games where they can save the most time. Other casinos use them on all games.
So I interpreted he found that odd and I kind of read into it that he was sort of hinting there may be another less savory reason why they are willing to pay the cost just to save the 30 seconds.
Just my interpretation, which I am sure you will dismiss. I really have no idea. Like I said, this guy is sort of hard to read and get a read on.

For what it is worth mickeycrimm, I requested by PM that Dan ban Blackhole from this thread, as per Dan's guidelines. Dan read my PM several hours ago, and has taken no action. It appears Dan Druff is embracing the trolling that is destroying this site, more than ever.
I disagree that he is ruining this thread.
Block him if you can't handle him, or ignore him if you can't block him.
I happen to agree with much of what blackhole posts, but I'm not going to PM Dan to that effect as if this is some kind of court proceeding.
Grow a pair...that's 2...between the 2 of you you should be able to manage that.
