To understand mankind, we must first understand the word. We can break the word down into two sub-words, 'mank' and 'ind'.What these two words mean is a mystery, just like mankind itself.

I've actually always placed in a tourney i've played in, i just don't usually have the money to play, poor college student and all :|. If you think it's luck how do you think the same guys make it to the final table every year at the world series?

that's a rediculous amount of kids for only a 6 dollar buy in... you guys should have increased the buyin to like 10 or 15 then winner takes home lik 1000

^thats why you just play blackjack... probability of winning is greater than 65% most of the time. bet small amounts and stay consistant, you will come out on top all the time

^ no you wont.

read any book about blackjack.
the odds of winning are not greater, you just have more control over the outcome.

apparently when dealers are showing bust cards they only bust about 23% of the time they are supposed to.

thats not very good, or "consistent" at all.

You just have to count cards to win at blackjack. Whenever a low card goes on the table 1-7 You add a +1 count, whenever a jack or better comes on the table you have a -1 count. 8-9 are +0. Now you divide this count by the amount of decks that are left to deal to arrive at a "true" count. If this Count is +2 or greater increase your bet, if it's -2 or greater wait out a couple of hands or play the min bet.

Poker is pretty much a game of luck unless you are betting large amounts of money.

If it's a game of luck how did i get to the places i did? Twice? Luck is involved don't get me wrong. But, i gaurentee no matter the amount of money on the line, if you think poker is luck, i could take all of yours.

not true my man... here is the probability on black jack... you WIN more than you lose by useing this strategy card.

you dont even need to know how to play blackjack... just follow this card and i guarantee you will win. see the key is to bet $1-$5 on each hand and stay consistant.

if you bet $5 the first hand bet $5 for all hands. the probability will tell you your going to win more than loose.

here is the card...
