But if you know what odds are, your odds are better if you play as close to the book as possible. Just because you can continue to list scenarios where it worked out doesnt mean that youre right. Theres (obviously, since odds) more scenarios where it fucks you up. It also affects later hands since youre taking those cards away. Its ok to make some playful hits now and then, but theres some things you just dont do. Hitting 12+ (assuming no ace) against 5/6 is stupid. Thats a fact. I agree. The premise of my topic was other players playing incorrectly affecting my outcome, which I don't believe it does. I meant it doesnt affect your outcome in that specific scenario. What if someone with 15 hit, got a 10, and then that dealer flips his 6 to 16 and gets a 5. Wow, game over. Hitting in completely wrong times takes cards away from the deck that a) could help you later on and b) affect that very hand. Yeah, that can happen also. Every players move affects the outcome of the game. But I don't believe bad players affect the outcome negatively for me in the long term (which is what I said in my OP) And yes, the cards taken away could help me specifically, or they couldn't.
