Hi
If you haven't checked out my website recently
then I would like to invite you to do so. Along with the Card Counting Computer Java Applet, I have now posted a great deal more of my essays on blackjack (about 30 in all).
Enjoy

What happened to your shuffle tracking simulator? I know it has been gone for a while, but why? Otherwise, I really like the site.
I play in Europe at a 6 decks,S17,D9,10,11, DAS, NS, 80% Pen
absolutely no heat,every spread, maybe 1:80.not to play all,80%,
the shuffle is trackable,but no insurance against BJ,
1. How big is the disadvantage of no ins.
2. Shall I play there?
3. In a few words the best system you think.
4. The gain of the Illustrious 18 ?
5. where can I get good advice of shuffle tracking
Answers appreciated Rainer
a prick about it but the subject came up - you could make it 1/2 lighter if you still wanted it. I was not super bad. I just have issues with those kind of backrounds. BUT - I liked the picture :-)
The problem with the simulator is that there is an easy formula that gets the same result the simulator produces, so there is nothing really complex being simulated. I felt embarassed to have such a crappy simulator on the site 8-)
The progression betting simulator was even worse. It was being used by the loonies to prop up their case.

Mr. M, it would be nice for a relatively unknown authority to present his credentials to your site visitors. Hey your bio may increase hits on your website. On the other hand, without a bio in your homepage, how am I suppose to find out your creditials, surely not from your posts listed below?

There is nothing posted on advantage play, however.
