I don't use a players card at the local casino (50 minutes away) because I dont want them keeping track of my play. I have very good luck playing BJ. I feel I'm pretty good. Not long ago I bought in for $65 and cashed out 2k. That was prob my biggest cash out. I should have walked away with more, but...live and learn. I walk out with $300 up 80% of the time just playing an hour and half 2 hours. I don't understand why people use a players card. To get a free room? That's only $150. I need to learn more about how much to progress my bets. I'm all over the board. I'll play a $50 hand then a $150 hand if I'm feeling it. I'd love to play with someone who I can learn from. I know when to hit and not hit, but I've found playing by the book doesn't always work. Obviously. Im more of a feel Player. I may sound like an idiot from what I said, but it's the truth.
