Luck Exists only in Hindsight.

In Response To: Luck Exist? (Inquiry)

Tables are bad and stay bad...they are bad and get good, they are good and stay good, they are good and go bad...they are bad and get choppy and every other combination you can think of.

It is not your luck...the game of blackjack is one of grinding out a profit with a fairly thin edge versus the casino...games with thin edges tend to act very much like games with no edge until a very large number of hands have been played. (Tens of Thousands). In the short run your result is simply random flux...if it's up you say you had good luck, if it's down you say you had bad luck. Flux is inherent in the game of blackjack...don't take it personally...it's not tied to you...it's tied to the game of blackjack.
