USFMD,

I've been doing pretty well. Without getting into specifics, I've padded my bankroll pretty nicely. I play at betUS and Sportsbook when I play online. Mostly betUs because they offer the surrender option and sportsbook doesn't. I had very little experience with blackjack before reading ALL of the info on this site regarding blackjack. It has been so helpful and really lowered the advantage that the house has for me. Just my opinion though. One thing I've noticed about the online casinos is that I seem to have maybe 4,5,6 or even more really good days of blackjack in a row and then one completely miserable day that could whipe out a few of the winning days. I've lost 200 in 5 minutes playing with just 20 a hand. Sometimes it just does not go well. So if you can grind it out on the rough days you are in great shape. stay level headed and do not stray from the strategy.

As for the video blackjack at the casino, we have the same at my local casino. I've also done well there. It is easy for people to label the video blackjack as "fixed" because they never shuffle, but I think they are pretty legit. Our casino offers games as low as $5, I usually play $10 there since $5 a hand doesn't work with my strategy. If you can only play $25/ hand I wouldn't start with any less than 400. bol.
