"Blackjack Scrooge"..."dosen't want to give away his money." I agree, but he's willing to aggressively pursue the game to the best of his knowledge to make the house "win" the money verses giving it away. I can see that you are a basically a beginner at the game via the comments throughout blog. For example, "Blackchips" =$100 (Correct) "Greenchips" = "worth about $25" Green chips are $25. "Player at right Base" Should read "Third base" Learning "Basic Strategy" ...a few hours. Trust me, learning perfect Basic Strategy will take at least a couple of months to be comfortable and confident at table. Please don't take this as a negative comment concerning your site, but you should consider letting me write a monthly article considering my experiences during the last 40 years playing the game. I began playing when Ed Thorpe wrote the book the changed blackjack in the early sixties.

Look like a loser - This is one of my favorites. This works not only for those who wish to get comps but also for card counters and other advantage players that do not want to get noticed by the pit boss. The only difference between advantage players and comp getters is that with advantage players you want to look like a loser even as you win so you don&#8217;t get noticed by the pit bosses while for comp getters you want to be noticed as a loser so that the pit bosses will report to the computer that you are losing more than you actually are, thus increasing your chances of getting comps. You can hide the fact that you are actually winning a lot by using some of the techniques I mentioned in my posts on Avoiding the Attention of Pit Bosses like pocketing your chips and avoiding being colored up by the dealer.
