Would this bet spread be profitable in a 6 to 5 single deck game?

6 to 5 single deck game with 3 other players betting 1 spot each.
sitting at 3rd base occupying 2 spots bet $5 the first hand if the count goes plus the 2nd hand bet 2 spots of $100 each. the dealer then shuffles after the 2nd round. Would this bet spread be profitable? I know it will be obvious but I don't care if I get kicked out of this lousy casino.

No

The only way you could get into profitable territory would be if you waited for a +5 count before you made your large bet. The profit would be razor thin, and I suspect the variation would be high. Why play this game at all? Surely, this casino must offer some other regular blackjack game? Any blackjack game with normal rules would offer a better opportunity, with the possible exception of a CSM game.

profitability

Bootlegger's response is spot on! Heed his advice.
Find yourself a decent shoe game and grind out a unit or two an hour.
Be realistic. Keep a low profile. getting 86's or worse can plague you at other properties !Seek the twin pillars of BJ: playing longevity and low R O R. All else is chimerical.
