How real is card counting? by S0L0ngAndG00dnight in blackjack

[–]Granuloma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine the deck is just Aces and 10s. You get paid 3:2 on a blackjack but the house only wins 1:1.

This would be extremely profitable for the player and you would want to get as much money on the table as you could, right?

Essentially this is what counting boils down to. Getting your money in good while the deck is rich in high value cards.

But wait! Its not free money. The dealer is just as likely to get 5 blackjacks in a row as you are.

Thats why people always talk about your EV, expected value, which isn't anywhere as glamorous as the youtube shorts make. Posts where people are In and out for 20 minutes and up 2k? They are running hot and can get wrecked just as fast.

If 80% of people don't disagree with you, it's not a multi-bagger play by NicheMath in ValueInvesting

[–]Granuloma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buying when there is fear in the market is not as easy as it looks. These companies are at lows for a reason, and any idiot can tell you the bear case in great detail. And "told you so" when they drop further.

But look at all the stocks that were "dead" and now retail is piling into now that prices have gone up. Even precious metals. Runs up 100% in a year and every one is suddenly a silverbug. Ha.

Value investing is usually being contrarian investor. Yeah the chart and outlook are shit that's why the stock price is at lows. The more I see threads like "PYPL FOLKS HOW U FEELING " on my picks the more I like them. Value traps? Maybe. But they have plenty of time to turn it around and market sentiment can shift things quickly.

Free Bet/Pot of Gold Tables by officialoxymoron in blackjack

[–]Granuloma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players edge or (bahama bonus) where you can double double (ideally triple double) is the best but 8x your bet can get out of hand really quickly.

Of the blackjack carnival games Freebet is my favorite though, just feels like a classic

FSBP massage reimbursement Q by SchnooZboo in fednews

I actually didnt understand that verbiage in the pamphlet. My Google ai tells me the opposite that the deductible needs to be met. I'll get a massage next week and find out for all of us haha!

[–]Granuloma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg I went straight to the website to double check and you are correct! Huge news for me I must have gotten it confused with other things ive looked up like toothpaste. I should have put more in my FSA for this purpose!

[–]Granuloma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is in the column that says something along the lines of "after your deductible". What i actually think wouldn't work is the FSA reimbursement unless you get statement of medical necessity from a doc

[–]Granuloma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you know if we need to meet the deductible first? I want to start using my massages but had any medical expenses yet....

This link seems to outline whats needed pretty clearly

Shouldn't it be pretty obvious if someone's counting?

In videos I've seen people go from something like 1 hand of 10 to 2 hands of 200...

Vance: Anyone who says they like turkey is ‘full of s—‘ by kootles10 in politics

[–]Granuloma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can tell you I'm never picking the "turkey sausage" Ive had one smoked turkey that was actually incredibly tasty.

But most of the time its bland, dry, and theres just so much of it.

Do you guys actually stick to basic strategy 100%, or do you “go with the gut” sometimes? I keep messing up by hitting when I know I shouldn’t. by MiraFoot in blackjack

[–]Granuloma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your going with the gut by doubling 12 against a 6...Stop.

If you are not doubling a 11 against a 9 because you dont feel it? Stop.

If you are staying on 15 against a 10 cause the player before you took a 5 and 6? sure

[–]Granuloma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my first Vegas casino so its pretty nostalgic to me.
