But yeah in Blackjack a variation could be successful but yes you would need a bankroll and of course the odds of a disastrous night losing 15 in a row hang over your head. That method has almost guaranteed small results for a few nights but you have to put a money bag on the other side of the odds teeter-totter every night.
Yeah, the dealer dude who told me about it swears by that method. I guess he goes three times a week, and typically says he plays until he wins $500.00 and goes home. However, he said he has also lost all $500.00 as well.

However, he said over 3 years he has tracked everything in a book at home. Winning, losing, how he played and so forth (which had given me the idea). He said that method has served him best over the past year to year and a half.

But you can take it for what it's worth. It was an interesting discussion all the same, and lead me to read up on the different techniques and tactics. I tried some of them a couple of them, and simply did not care for it.
