    I think you are making this a lot harder on yourself than it is. The correct RED 7 play for a 4-4 vs a dealers 5 or 6 is ALWAYS a split, basic strategy play. There is NO deviation play for RED 7...

    How viable is backcounting in 2024? I was playing around with CVCX and saw that my risk of ruin plummeted even when backcounting to 1 and playing out the rest of the shoe no matter what. Is this...

    At Starbucks right now. I think the numbers with the asterisk are meant to be utilized in reverse of the normal meaning. Right or wrong, I think page 259 is in error, likely around page 253 (hi lo...

    Where DAS (double after split) is offered (on most if not all shoe games), double after split is proper on most 44 v 5;6 hands. Wong’s Professional Blackjack around pages 250 and 275 - hi lo and...

    concerning the 4-4 vs 5,6 split. i have seen very little info. about a deviation play regarding this hand. it would seem to be ill advised with any ten rich shoe (or dbl. deck for that matter)

    You should always use indices. GO with the indices calculated for the system you are using. If KO, they are in the book. Can't help you with any other systems.

    Since you start with a negative count, when should you begin using indices rather than basic strategy? I am thinking like the 9v2, 11vA,12v5&6, and the 13 and 14 hands. Thank you for the time &...

    Starting with dealer's upcard of 7 and going to T, these are the true counts (Hi-Lo) below which you don't double 11: -10, -8, -5, -5. In other words, except for doubling vs. ace (+1), you rarely...
