BJ is a marathon game. I once spent 24 straight hours in a casino and 75% of my time, was on a BJ table.
When you play, do you watch what others at your table do? (like take hits when you wouldn't)
Did you ever get hot, and when the dealer gets changed, get up and go to another table?
Did you flat bet?
Did you bet erratically?
If you can win at least 1 outta every 4 hands, and play 100 hands bettin' $10.00, you go +$250.00. Odds are, you would make more than that chasing, if you, and everyone else at the table, knows how to play!

LOL I was joking. kinda.
I spent 60% of my time at the tables and the other watching march madness. truth be told sportsbetting put me in the hole and i broke even in BJ.
I flat bet always. 25 bucks everytime. I figured I was there to enjoy the company of my best friends whom we dont get to see each other but once a year so while they are jumping from 10 dollar tables to 25, we try to sit together at a table so really I am always covered for minimum bet in any case. It was more important to me that I play with them sitting and drinking and having a good time together rather than being at a "hot" table and around strangers. They know how to play also so if we are all at the same table I dont have to worry about a player messing up the table. but often we are all scattered due to crowds, space or some of us interested more in the bball games. I know the goal should be to win and make money but really I am fine with company of buddies and drinking but its not out of the question to also win at the same time right?
but case in point, I do watch what others do, i see a dumbass and I "try" (i say try because i dont always do it) to get up and leave or hope he leaves. I stick to basic strategy and I firmly believe tho this doesnt make you rich it doesnt put you in the poor house either.
Ive seen almost everything imaginable, i've hit 10 in a row, I've lost 8 in a row, so nothing surprises me.
but I am always open to hear new advice or new strategies
having fun with your friends and winning at the same time would be perfect, but for now I'll take just having fun with your friends.
