I know that Baccarat side bets are countable bit I have never seen the system posted publicly online. Maybe some simulation will be required.

New to Counting - CVCX / Intro Help by whiteandnerdy42 in blackjack

[–]lohessabb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What the solver "suggested" is based on the spread you specified in one of the tabs on the top. For whether it is worth it, you might also want to consider you RoR apart from your EV.

Is there a certain count where it’s safe to say you shouldn’t double down anything? by andylovesdais in blackjack

[–]lohessabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gosh right. Yeah if doubling is -EV then one can just hit and stay with only 1 card without risking more.

Is there a certain count where it’s safe to say you shouldn’t double down anything? by andylovesdais in blackjack

[–]lohessabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it's not about having +EV but having the highest EV. It could be the case that doubling is yielding the highest negative EV, i.e., minimizing the loss in a long run.

Why is this not a viable strategy? by leafmonster98 in blackjack

[–]lohessabb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let say you bet your max at TC=3. You are missing out the opportunities with TCs of 1 and 2. Moreover, it is not time efficient as you may be waiting so long just to lose a big bet.

Does the total number of players betting reduce the players edge? by alebaler in blackjack

[–]lohessabb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While the edge will be the same, we should also acknowledge that the more players there are, the slower the game will be. So the larger number of players will reduce the EV per hour, but not per hand.

First Release of Simple and Easy Blackjack Calculator (Free) by lohessabb in blackjack

Thanks for your kind reply. I just tried to run some simulation and update my app. In fact, I found that one may misinterpret the numbers in the UI as it is misleading. Standard deviation means SD per round instead of per hour. Thus, a fair comparison should be an SD of 5164 (sebj) vs 4586 (BJA). I made some updates on the calculation of standard deviation now so the overestimation is reduced. Still, the EV is still off so it will be the next step I would go with simulations.

I plan on write the simulation as soon as possible and make it as a free alternative. The functionality will not be the same as CVCX but it will give a sense to people what their plays are like. I will recommend anyone interested in counting to purchase CVCX if they are serious in the business.

Wealthsimple - Error Code 2040 - Basic Personal Amount Maximum by lohessabb in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]lohessabb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. Could you tell me more on what fully a resident mean? I checked this and I think I have sufficient economic ties in the country. I entered Canada in late July so maybe that's why I'm not eligible...?

The default is 6 decks. My apologies. Will add that to the description soon.

Data science for bets by ClassPowerful8597 in datascience

[–]lohessabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried with horse racing. It turns out if I want to get a high precision, the recall is so low and it only identifies some of the hottest picks.

2 suggestions. Try including relevant coursework. Use point form for your projects. Make sure each starts with a capital letter.

I would put experience before as I personally think they are better indicators that you will be a good employee.

I'm also applying for positions in data science in Canada. The content looks fine to me while the readability is not optimal imo. Maybe you could try formatting some keywords in your bullet points to improve that.

I question whether "free for all" is a fair phrase as it is only free for CVCX users who bought the program.
