Subject : card eating posted by ArnoldSnyder on Nov-20-2006 12:23pm |
| This is an area where many players have a misunderstanding. Optimally, playing two (or even three) hands in positive counts and one (or even none) in negative counts would provide the highest percentage and dollar return. Card eating is a valid strategy only if you use a monster betting spread. For instance, at a table with $25 minimums and $2500 maximums, if you could eat cards at the minimum and spread up to the max on your high counts, the card eating would cost little and it would speed up the game, which would work in your favor. Many players, however, cannot get away with such a big spread (or they don't have the bankroll to use such a spread). To make card eating a valid approach, the cards would have to be eaten by a confederate (like a wife or girlfriend) who can play multiple hands at the minimum with little suspicion. If you're using a more typical 1-8 or 1-12 spread, then card eating is probably going to take too big of a chunk out of your win rate to be an optimal strategy to employ by yourself. |
