1.How often occur a hi count in a 6d game?
2.How many hi counts may lose a player in a row?
3.What is the probability to have 4 5`s in a row (getting 20 on a hand)?
4.May I have some simple responses,thank you?
Using Uston APC with separate count of Aces in a 2 Decks, S17,DAS, DOA, 68%-75% pen.
Negative counts: 44.669%
Zero : 15.755%
Positive counts: 39.581%

To that, add: ALL PROGRESSION SYSTEMS ARE A SCAM, and "money management" systems are useless, supersititous voodoo.
Puiu probably meant to say:
"Scam progression systems are wrong BECAUSE they focus exclusively on money management, because money management does not change the house edge."
Otherwise, everything he said was right on the money.
I asked how many hi counts in a row you can lose .I was`n`t asking how many hands in a row you can lose in a hi count,but how many hi counts (each hi count is during about 6-7 hands and occurs once at about 3 shoes)you can lose in a row
Obviously anything is "possible". You could lose a million hands in a row where the TC is +30, it is just VERY unlikely that you would do so. I think the point is that a high TC does not change your win/loss/push %'s much but rather you make money by getting more BJ's, etc.
Are you looking for personal experiences (rather than general possibilities), or are you looking for the probability of a certain outcome occurring given a specified TC?
Cougar think about it the dealer has a 16 and the true count is +6 do you think the dealer really should take a card if it wasn't a rule. Do you think this will cause him to bust more? If I have a 9 under the same conditions do you think the high count will cause me to get a blackjack..maybe getting a ten will give me a 19.Maybe a 19 will get me more wins without a blackjack.
OK, maybe I am just a bit confused. I was responding to George I's post by stating the obvious that you "can" lose an infinite number of high hands / counts in a row, it's just not all that likely. It seemed like George I was implying that the advantage in a high TC comes from winning more hands. I pointed out that you don't have to win more hands to have an advantage.
From your respose to my post, it sounds like you may be pointing out a couple of specific situations where a players ability to freely decide how to play a hand gives him an advantage in a high TC situation. I did not mean to imply that the increased frequency of BJ's was the only reason for a players advantage, although it is a major reason. I did not list all of the reasons for the players advantage with a high count because they have already been covered ad naseum on these pages. If I really thought that the players advantage in a high count only came from BJ's, then I wouldn't have bothered learning all of those pesky indexes.
I may be wrong, but I calculated the answer to the probability of getting four fives in a row for a single deck game at 270,725 to 1.
Telescopic
Actually, 270724 to 1. Or 1 in 270725.
Realistically, you'd probably never see it if you were playing correctly, since you'd double down on a pair of 5s most of the time. ;)
I was just curios if a hi count is occuring in a shoe and I`m losing that row of hands with the edge on my side(with the optimal bet),then next shoe I got a new hi count and I want to adapt my bet correlating with the probability of losing (consecutive) the new row of hands with the edge on my side.
I named a hi count the row of hands with positive count.And when I say a lost hi count I mean the results was`n`t as I was expected or worse.
Anyway, thanks for the 5`s question.
George I.
