Dana: it doesn't matter how many hands you play before you walk away. As long as you're playing blackjack in a casino and are not counting cards, the house has an edge.

[@strictlysport3624]

Unless it's a weak dealer exposing their hole cards it's much much better than counting. Player would have an edge of about 10%

[@TheFrenchPug]

​@@strictlysport3624I've never seen a dealer weak enough to show their hole card. All the Vegas tables use the mirror for the hole card. But yes, you are correct. You have to at least play the Basic Strategy to have any chance unless you just get very lucky.

[@UnderTheMillkyWay]

I like Dana on several levels. He couldn't be bought during Covid, he allows the people making him money to say what they want no matter who it's about and thus far he can't be bought. Not selling out and allowing those that work for him to speak their minds is what truly makes him a great man. I wish I could say the same out our government which is far more important but I can't. It's people like him and Rogan that help this country even if you don't always agree with them that's fine but at least you still have a voice and they respect your decisions and rights. I remember a time when this was common day and I miss those times. I feel sorry for the children and teenagers growing up in today's world that have always had the internet and have no idea what privacy is and that's hard to explain that to them when they've never had it to miss.

[@blueelephant4971]

I've seen one of Dana's strategies-he will bring his celebrity friends with him and bet when the count is good. Then when the count is bad he will sit out and let them finish out the shoe. These guys like the Nelk Boys or Adin Ross have no clue that Dana is doing this to them. The casino must see what he's doing but they seem to tolerate it since Dana will repay them by comping UFC VIP packages to their high rollers or bringing in high rollers to spend a bunch in the casino.

[@misspetit]

No Dana doesn't count. He just has unlimited money and can play until he wins it all back. That's his strategy

[@posiahjond996]

Yeah don’t give him credit for counting, if you watched the same video you should know he’s a basic losing gambler that flaunts his momentary wins.

[@BrianKim65]

I've watched about 2 hours of Dana's playing and he doesn't play basic strategy. He plays with guts which is dangerous. The only thing that saves him is his unlimited marker he has. He keeps digging until he gets on a good run and comes out ahead. I will bet you that he doesn't show any of his losing sessions. He hates losing, so he's always chasing.

[@user-vb8yf8be3l]

I counted cards from 1962 to 1966 I went to Harrahs at lake tahoe. At that time they were playing single deck.. If I was being interviewed I would say the same thing as Dana... Beating blackjack is very hard to do.. At the time people were working for 2 dollars an hour. We would take about 10 000 and later 30 000. But the only way to win and there is no sure thing is to very your bets.. The Casinos will kick you out if you do this... What I mean is bet say one chip on a fresh shufful and if 4-5- and 6 count cards come out on the first say go arounds then increase your bet Also just play like there are 2 decks no matter how many. So there would be 72 little cards aces are little and 32 10 count cards divide 32 into 72 and it would be 2.2 and this number lowers to 2 or less you would incrrease your bets This may only happen once out of 3 or 5 schuffles.. If you ever saw 18 face cards and 26 little cards you would bet 10 chips and then pray you get a twenty

Anyone who really knows gambling is laughing. Take his example and go the other way.

There needs to be a class action lawsuit against the casinos. They welcome you to come on in & lose your money but if you're winning they want to ban you. How is that fair?

[@CrazyLarry23]

Because they're a business, there to make money. If you owned the casino, and someone was consistently beating you, why would you want their action?

[@vgardner1688]

@Olly Gardner Well yeah duh. I know why they wouldn't want my business but it should be illegal to give people the hopes that they can win but if you do you'll usually get banned. That would be like selling lottery tickets but then you ban a guy that keeps winning. If it's legit there should be no reason to ban anyone. So if I lose every single hand that's perfectly fine but if I win every single hand that's bad? So if a basketball team wins 4 straight championships should they be banned from playing in their 5th season? Like these greedy casinos don't make enough. smh.

Does he count cards?

[@TheFrenchPug]

He's probably a good player who is able to bet wildly without fear of losing. Fear is the biggest killer in 21. As long as you know the basic strategy and can minimize other players' stupid playing mistakes, you can win (as I'm sure you may know). I once saw a guy clean out 3 trays of chips at Buffalo Bill's, at the State Line in Vegas, while me and my buddy were counting cards at the same table. This dude was betting minimum $100 chips. We were winning but just small potatoes with minimum $20 bets. This guy would double down on his hands with 12 or higher several 16's, and win every time! And, with the dealer showing 10s!!! On one hand, he won $2k and started with only $100 bet! We could not figure out what his strategy was but he definitely had one. He sat at 3rd base, and he played mostly correct to the basic strategy. But when he dropped a $500 bet down, BOOM! He almost always won but not by gettjng 20s or Blackjacks. He's mostly managed to win. And after a while he was getting very upset at our astonishment to what he was doing by drawing attention to him. The pit boss rotated through 5 dealers and multiple packs of new cards. The dealers also had to get new trays of chips 3 times in less than a couple hours. To this day, we could never figure out what the hell kind of strategy he was using. But to us, it was like seeing a UFO with the Aliens up close and in our faces 👽. I was 27 at the time. I'm 57 now and it still pumps me up sharing that story. Hope it came across ok. If not, sorry for the long post.

I used to go to Las Vegas and turn $300 into $3000 playing blackjack every other week. Learned how to count and I memorized all of the betting charts from the book Beat the Dealer. Back then you had a lot of $2 and $3 minimum bet tables. That is what you needed for my kind of bankroll. The $5 Mins I could not win at for some reason. Now, if you can find a $10 minimum table you're in Heaven! But you need a much larger bankroll to win.

[@bentrujillo6406]

I constantly win 5 to six grand on 100-500 dollars all the time. I am willing to put a side bet I win more than Dana playing my way heads up against the casino. So now if you win 500 bucks on your 500 hundred you only won 5-10 hands more than the dealer I win 80 to 85 percent of my hands you lose to hands in a row you go to 3 hands till you lose mix it up go from 1 hand to 2. Back to one if your playing heads up you have to win 90 percent of your hands to make money back and fourth in the long run your gonna lose money. Dont get greedy that favors the house. If you win three hands in a row and you get a double down hand don’t double your gonna lose that’s how the house makes back it’s money. Just like if you win a double down and you have another double down don’t do it the house wants you to go 50% win instead of 75-100% win. So if you look at the first double down and you have bad cards you have to double down again. It’s like splitting aces most the time it’s a wash a 21 with a shit card on the other one why not keep them together and make 1 solid hand you went from a 50% winner to 100 percent.

[@TheFrenchPug]

Very, very interesting strategy! I will have to try it next time. So, are you still card counting or just using basic strategy rules on hitting and what not? I've never heard of this philosophy.

[@RedCandles_]

He is either just gloating about the wins he has taken and doesn’t want to discuss the losses or he is counting. You can’t go south in blackjack. The variance will always catch up to you if you keep playing bc you have a negative edge even if you play perfect basic strategy. If his strategy is just walking away when he’s up, he will lose over time if he keeps playing. After a certain number of hands, there will be a slice of his bankroll that will never come back to him through variance. That’s how a house edge works.

[@metsrus]

the difference between Dana and most other players is just the bankroll. His bankroll is large enough to withstand the losses and turn the momentum around, as opposed to an average Joe who has a limited bankroll and once they used all that up, that's the end of their run . Also from the way he talks, it seems he understands when to walk away.

every degen gambler i know has the same foolproof way to "win" at the casino. it's this: remember the wins, forget the loses. they're all "lifetime, up" at the casino. how do casinos stay open, when they're losing so much money everyday to gamblers? it's a paradox

[@maximum702]

I have never seen Dana in any of the casino's. He probably got sick of everyone asking him where they could find all his rules for his sport. Just in case someone wanted to try it or even know what's going on.

[@TheThe-ce2rk]

In better words, he is there for business lol

Went into Cherokee Harrah's today with 300 left out with 475 extra and the dealer asked me why are you leaving b**** I just doubled my money f*** are you talking about😅😅😅😅

I went in to a new casino started with there free 5 bucks on the slots turned 5 into 300 then took the 300 to the card table and left with 3k all in all I was there about 6-7 hours my girl was with me spent 700 and lost 700 all on slots.

[@TheFrenchPug]

Man, that's what you call a great day!

[@davidgray2845]

Exactly right. Doing exactly what White said, I win 75% of the time. I was on a 1st date once and said to the girl. Wanna see how to never pay for lunch or gas ever again? We went in with $300 and walked out with $600. Total time in casino MAYBE 15 minutes. I said, I do this every week. Shoulda saw the look on her face 😂

[@Paul-vf2wl]

Dana wins 75% of the time but his 25% losses are 10 times higher than his wins

[@slowery43]

no you don't win 75% of the time you are absolutely 100% lying.

5 hands, and win two of those 5 hands and be uP AND YOU LEAVE.

[@nunyabusiness389]

Wish he would have said how much he needs to lose to walk away?

[@TheFrenchPug]

$500k probably.

[@2011blueman]

He is actually pretty bad at blackjack. The reason he isn't wanted at some casinos is because he is willing to play so high that he can affect their quarterly numbers if he wins. The bigger properties like MGM and Caesars should welcome him.

Dana is light years from being a profitable BJ player lol

Casinos operate negative expectation games and will win over the long run. For his level of play and frequency, casinos would be fighting (no pun intended) to get him at their tables Unless you are cheating they want you playing

I can tell you from living in a casino that you'll definitely get banned playing like that no matter the stakes. Casinos don't fret on you winning in so much as the hit and run mentality that Dana does.

I cracked vegas for over 150gs in blackjack from a 500 dollar bankroll, dumped it into the stock market, atarted a tech company and an amazon store. Vegas wants me back bad but vegas is trash city. Macau baby boy

[@bentrujillo6406]

That’s not that much money that’s only 8 hands at 5,000 a hand. I won 6 grand in ten minutes a few months ago on a 125 dollar bet. 50 dollars on my hand 75 on the win 5 in a row which payed 35 to1 and I hit it twice 2,625 each time. 10 hands no loses if I was betting 2,500 a hand and had 2,500 on the progressive I would have won 200,000 in ten minutes. It would have been like five minutes.

[@TheFrenchPug]

You sound like you have some serious cash to play with.

[@rcarlisi63]

counting cards.......

[@eliasturk]

nope

[@jessewright8556]

Have alot of money is the strategy lol not like its talent based

[@jessewright8556]

His strategy only works if you never go back to the casino after you win. Because its proven math if you keep going bak youbwill eventually lose what you won. Whichbhe conveniently never talks about how much he has lost playing. Counting cards is the only proven way to havelong term success at bj

[@harolddodds5849]

Here's my semi professional take. Just left BlackHawk Colorado in a Indian reservation casino in Arizona now and heading to Vegas today. I likely log more hours than Dana. He made a comment in this video not hitting your 16 against a showing 10. Recently on this subject a guy said to me, obviously someone I'm watching hit his 15 amd 16 steady and busting out constantly and was losing. He says we'll it's 1 of every 3 hands he has a 10 showing that he has a 10 below. And I said what about the other 2 of 3 times it isn't. Silence. That's just it, how many times are you dealt a 10 on the first card and as you eagerly await and hope a second 10 and a nearly made hand , how many times does it not arrive a second 10. Often. Much more often than a made 10/10 hand. That is exactly the mythical book and way the casino wants you to play and way many many sheep play. If you're playing the way the casino wants you to play you're losing! #1 rule for me in blackjack don't do the houses job and bust yourself out. Before the casino has ever turned over their hand and or made a winning hand you've already eliminated yourself and busted yourself out. The house did their job because you did it for them by busting yourself out. Can you win with a 23 hitting that 16. No but I sure can win with my 14 or 15 and watch the dealer bust out. Second rule don't invest more in a bad hand. What's a bad hand AA against a 10 3/3 another bad hand...just play it out instead chasing a split hope and prayer. Watch the cards if you're playing last seat and the 2 players before you just pulled a 10 and then another there is a better percentage in your favor that the next card is not a third consecutive face card so I'd feel a likely more good about hitting a 14 or 15. Lastly if you are hitting a 16 what is your landing runway. A 2 improves your hand very little. A 3 marginly better to 19. So really your true runway to land that hit on 16 is a 5, 4 , 3 and not very valuable 2.....your landing zone to bust is much greater 6, 7, 8 ,9 and all those 10s. That is frankly elementary logic from a gambler and those that think hit 16 is frankly just a sucker playing to the house.

[@janispayne5570]

Condescending attitude and name calling is not polite or attractive.

[@jasonhammond4712]

Awesome Dana

[@Bossebjj]

Ask him about his losses

[@xiaofeizhou4222]

His strategy is simple and effective. Not replicable unless you are stacked. He’s probably a billionaire, sure he may lose 2, 5 even 15 hands. But even at 100k a hand he can outlast the casino until he is up a few hundred k.

[@xiaofeizhou4222]

Mathematically the probability of losing 10 hands in a row is 0.1%, that’s a million dollars lost. 1/1000th of his net worth. I’m sure he employs some sort of bankroll management strategy, but even with the basic martingale, he can break out of any losing streak 99.9% of the time with 1/10 of his net worth.

[@misspetit]

Yes you are right.

[@ddinh9584]

that casino must be very stupid to kick him out

Playing to win is why gamblers always win big but even though they may lose big .. Players who play with an amount delegated as a cost or have the notion “im willing to lose 1k” wont hit those numbers.

Why won't they? I used to do that, and I would win more often than not. You have to have a maximum bankroll.

[@Savagemister]

Does he Martingale? Because he doesn't count. He knows perfect basic strategy though.

[@Paul-ew5st]

That's basically it. No casinos are barring him they just don't offer him credit. He plays like meathead increasing his bet until he's up.
