Going back to Vegas in a month, need to brush up on my basic strategy so I won't be doubling down on 16 v. a dealer face up
I like the strategy, just so damn frustrating when streaks are far and few.
One thing: if someone at the table is playing the "wrong way", and you get a bad vibe, just get up. I was at NY NY and just stayed too long
(I mentioned this up there in a previous post)
I actually believe that it'll even out, a bad move by another player will be made up down the line, in sequence when a card you need will show up. But when that player keeps doing it and doing it, it becomes a mental thing and I do know its mostly stats, but mental = bad vibes, and you feel like the voodoo has washed over your table.
Better off just walking away and take a break. Come back fresh at another table.
What was so funny was one of my best friends (it was for his bachelor party the last time I was there) knows how to play according to basic strategy but I swear it seemed like he started to pick up the bad habits of the player who was doing bad things like staying on 16 v. dealer face, or hitting on 13 v. dealer 5 face. It was just ridiculously funny like he just picked up this bad habit from her and started mimicking her bad moves.
Can't wait to try it out again.
