Hey everyone, I've got another "NBJ Rookie" question for you. At what point do start playing at the "CSM" tables? Do you play these as a last resort? I know the manual says it "Loves CSM Tables" it talked about a "controlled level of clumping", but it didn't elaborate any further. The reason I'm asking this is because in my local casino the majority of the tables are "CSM"$15 minimum, after that you have 8 deck $15 minimum regular shuffle tables that only pay 6/5 on a Blackjack, a couple of 8 deck regular shuffle $25 minimum(these tables are always packed,and when they are not, they are text book tables to avoid). The high limit area always has spaces available but at this point in my "Rookie Career" I don't have a large enough bankroll to play in the "High Rent District". Possibly in a few months once I gain more experience and confidence in my "NBJ" abilities I might try it, but not yet. What do you guys suggest I do as a starting point?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Ellis, Thanks for your help. I believe I'm going to learn quite a lot from you guys. Then I can finally have the confidence to win at blackjack!!

Hey Everyone, I'm new to this forum. I just purchased the Zero Prox. and the NBJ materials last week. For the last couple of years I've been a " perfect BS player", and yes I've lost perfectly about 90% of the time! I've never learned to count cards yet,but that is where my confusion is. The zero prox. manual states while practicing counting down a deck the count should end at zero every time if you are doing it properly. My question is as follows: Would the count still be at zero if all the aces in the deck followed all high cards, or if they all followed low cards? Wouldn't that make the count different? Please advise, thanks for your patience. Remember I'm just a "rookie"!
