Miscellaneous Blackjack Card Counting Statistics

  • Session Data - On the Complex screen, you will see the setup parameters for Blackjack Sessions. Data is collected and displayed on the Session Data screen. For each seat, the Parameters are displayed. A Session ends when the target is reached, the max number of rounds is played or the bankroll is depleted. Displayed are the number of sessions, the percent with winnings, losses and tied, the percentage of times the target was hit and the Risk of Ruin.
  • Streaks - Hands in a Row - This table shows the selected player's various winning and losing streaks. If a tied hand (push) occurs, the current winning or losing streak is not terminated. Also, as a streak is in progress, the hands that it passes through are not incremented. For example, if a player wins three hands in a row and then loses the fourth hand, only the hand number three win streak counter will be incremented. The hand one and hand two counters will not be incremented. The Ratio columns provide the odds of each streak length. For example, when displaying ratios, a 9 in the first row means that 1 of every nine hands is a one-win streak. The percentage columns convert this to the percentage of hands played. Time Spent indicates the portion of time spent in each streak length. At Least means, the time spent in each streak length and any greater streak lengths.
  • Streaks - Hours in a Row - This is the same as above, but in Hours. That is, a winning streak of five hours means that you have won anything in each of five consecutive hours.
  • Streaks - Units per Hour - This table shows the number of times that you have experienced a winning or losing streak of a number of units per hour. That is, a 4,000 in the 0 row would indicate that 4,000 times you neither won nor lost any money in an hour of play. The cumulative stats indicate the percentage of time that you have made at least the corresponding number of units per hour.
  • Streaks - Bankroll Excursions - This table shows the maximum negative excursions your bankroll reaches during the sim. The bankroll deltas reflect how far your bankroll dips from your previous units high win. The bottom of the table tracks each player's sim highs. That is, the highest bankroll at any point in the sim, lowest bankroll, highest win rate in an hour and lose rate in an hour. The Maximum Negative Swing is the greatest drop from a high point to a low point that is never again reached. The Current Negative Swing is the number of units that you ended below your peak.
  • Streaks - Total Streaks/Bonuses - Here, Bonuses and streaks are summarized. The counts for a bonus are only shown if the appropriate bonus feature is turned on. The longest streaks are also provided.

Cumulative Blackjack Statistics Tables

There are also six tables of cumulative statistics data. These tables contain data by True Count, Running Count and Hand Depth. However, unlike the previous tables where each row contains data only for one TC, RC or Depth; in these tables, each row includes the data from the prior next row.
