Subject : Question for Arnold Snyder- Playing Multiple Hands posted by MJ1 on Nov-15-2006 08:30pm |
Mr Snyder, Somebody posted a question similar to this one a while back but you never commented on it. I revised the conditions of the game and am hoping you could share your opinion on this matter. Which of the following options is the best for a 6D game, typical rules (DAS, DA2, RS3, 75%Pen) with 3 other players at the table? All options below assume optimal betting with a fixed kelly-factor and multiple hand wagers that are adjusted for covariance. a) To play one hand all the time... Increasing and decreasing the bets with the count.... b) To play two hands at a time every time.... Increasing and decreasing the bets with the count... c) To play one hand and if the count goes up play two hands and increase the bets, of course having the same bet on both. d) To play two hands and if the count goes up play only one hand and increase the bets... Now option a) clearly cannot be the best because conventional wisdom says to play two hands in positive counts when other players are at the table. The problem with Option b) is that the counter would be playing two hands in negative counts and therefore losing twice as much in negative and neutral counts. On a positive note, at least he will play an extra hand in positive counts....which can really boost SC0RE! Between option c) and option d), I am inclined to go with option d) because it has to do with the card eating effect. By playing two hands in neg and neutral counts, you burn through the neg and neutral counts faster and get to play more rounds in positive counts. Well Mr Snyder, what do YOU think? Thanks, MJ |
