Hey everyone,
I am planning to play blackjack this week or weekend.
For basic strategy, I haven't memorized it, but plan to print out sheets of basic strategy sheets (one for hit on 17, one for stand on 17) from the wizard of odds. I have been practicing using those sheets for a week or so.
So, I was planning on using a modified ace/5 counting system that I read on wizard of odds. However, the betting system requires a big bankroll i.m.o. 'Usually the maximum will be 8, 16, or 32 times the minimum bet, or any power of 2, but you can use whatever bet spread you wish' (wizard of odds). If minimum bet is $10, I would potentially spend a lot.
What I was planning on doing was not betting until the count was +2, and increase by 5 each time the count goes up. Would that modification work? Also, if I sat at a table and barely played, would that be bad?
Please give me your feedback.

If you’re betting $1 a hand for 60 hands per hour, your average expected loss is about $4 an hour, larger than the average loss on blackjack for a basic strategy player betting $10 a hand, and a third of the average blackjack loss for an average player despite the disparity in wagers.
