It takes a certain kind of person. You need to be almost completely emotionless.

Contrary to popular belief if you have a bankroll and some discipline, counting singledeck blackjack and using proper unit sizing is probably one of the easiest ways of making money known to man. As long as you dont get too greedy and are happy with just winning a few hundred per session and you can walk away, boom. Singledeck blackjack is like a license to steal.
Things needed:
Discipline
Bankroll
Singledeck Table
Proper understanding of strategy, card counting and unit sizing
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DO YOU EVER DEVIATE FROM YOUR PLAN AND TRY TO "WIN MORE" THAN YOU SET OUT TO DO.
For example if you go to the table with 5k your goal should be to win 250$. Etc.
Soon as you win 250 you walk. Go do something else. The casino is not going anywhere. Go spend your 250$ on a new pair of shoes and a pair of sunglasses. BUT GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE. The Gambling Gods are very unforgiving of greedy people and second guessing.
Sorry about the caps but I can't stress those keys enough.
And yes, Vegas is the place to be if you want to do this for a living.

People are mad because with this thread title they opened it expecting a potentially awesome thread.
Instead, they got some weird guy who strangely knows what a troll is, but not a level, and who seems to know very little about being a pro blackjack player and instead offers bizarre BR management advice and gets mad when an actual pro chimes in. By "pro" did you mean stay in a hotel for a few weeks while you donked off a few G's? Why don't you tell us how much you are up lifetime.
