Short Blackjack test:
(I know the answer, This is just a test).

The un played cards are saturated with high cards 2/3rds of a way through a six deck shoe. For you counters that is a a very favorable situation. The "True Count" is a +5.

Just one small problem: You have to take a leak so bad that you may bust a bladder. Might only be enough time to make it to the bathroom if that.

What do you do?

Answer in my next post....

1. I know ...
You bring the duck across the river first, then go back, take the grain, take the duck back, then take the fox over then take the duck back.

2. Well, you sure as hell do not piss yourself.
Guess you'll have to skip the cards for a few minutes.

5. This answer comes from a REAL blackjack pro
Not me...

You tell the dealer you have to go to the bathroom immediately and put out a maximum bet. Instruct her to double ALL eights through eleven against dealer's 4 to 6 up card. Stay on all stiff hands. Otherwise hit until receiving a pat hand or a stiff.

Leave any winnings in front of your seat until and upon your returning.



I usually time my bathroom adventures until after the deck goes south.

Think ahead.
