Well i took my first direct blow last night in a casino. I've been playing now for about 2 yrs and have a small BR 2G's i've built up and have done well since i started more or less (beginners luck?) Anyway i've always just backcounted and done okay (Im not trying to make the mortgage payment, just extra cash and fun) Well last night while playing in Grand Vic Casino in Indiana near Cincy, i cound't get any cards to land my way! I was playing 6d h17 das rsa surr %70 pen, they had another game the only difference was s17 but no mid shoe entry. So i jump in my first hand with a rc of 13 and tc of 3 expecting some high cards and i lost my 1st 4 hands, then i played another shoe couple of games later with a tc of 2 and dealer gets a bj or i get a 15 or 16? It went like that all night! The high cards came to some of the other players, but i never landed any:( Serously i won about %10 of my hands and i was only playing when i had an advantage? My questions are 1. i know this happens but is it really common and can i expect it to happen often?2. I've noticed the cards come out but sometimes not to me, should i play more hands if space is open, hoping to land the high cards, rather than stack my one bet high? Any help will be appreciated, thanks.......ps that casino doesnt have good enough games for a reccomendation if you ask me, even if i had been profitable. sorry for the spelling in a hurry
