Say,
for instance, you are betting $25 a hand for four
hours (weekends, remember, higher table limits)
averaging 100 hands per hour. Couple that with
the three percent advantage the casino holds over
your run-of-the-mill play, and you can predict,
just as the casino does, your loss expectation
of $300 ($25 X 4 hrs. X 100 hands X .03 = $300).
I did say predict, Ben, but not guarantee, simply
because you won't automatically lose that exact
amount. But the more you play, the closer your
actual losses will get to your expected loss.
