    Maybe. Depends on your spread. If you’re playing locally with tight spreads and that “harder” count is better able to identify both marginal weakness and strength, then you’ll do much better with...

    The most important PE improvement is perfect insurance (or close to it) but I am not sure how you can get to that from your main system since we don't know what information you use. As far as the...

    Oh for sure, though I’m not in the position to discuss it openly. It was passed down from a mentor, but the count itself can be improved, just not sure the extra effort is worth the trouble. Assuming...

    Feel free to expand. Just about every count/sidecount/sidecounts/3-4-5 columnar counts/ have been discussed here at some point.

    Hmm so I could easily out pace the harder count. Ugh the perfectionist in me always tries to optimize things but simplicity is crucial with respect to time. I could probably do the easier count all...

    Here I disagree. What you're saying depends on the counting system you use. In Hi-Lo or Halves, an ASC will effectively improve PE and not BC, as you rightly say, but with CAC2 this is not the case,...

    BC/BE by itself means nothing. It must go hand in hand with PE. What I mean by this is that you can have a system with a BC of 0.99 that turns out to be inferior, in terms of SCORE, to another with,...

    I don't really know the answer to those questions but I would speculate that these inter division rivalries are more intense and the dog is more motivated to upset the fave also, as I indicated...

    Think of it this way 1. You will earn about 10-15% more with same time effort 2. You will earn about the same amount with 10-15% less time effort Your comment is ambiguous. Are you referring to...

    How much of a difference does .99 BC vs .96 BC make? And lets say the .99 BC count is a bit more complex than the .96 BC, and by a bit I mean side counting 2 cards instead of 1.

    81 games is a really small sample but still interesting. Sports betting is fluid though. An edge today might not exist tomorrow if books potentially adjust. One also wonders why the division...

    Viable. But it's tricky and there's an art to it. 6-8 deck shoe will be +1 or great about 25-30% of hands. Obviously it is mathematically preferable to play $0 on negative hands instead of min...

    Nuances tab, Notes: near the top. That should stick to the configuration definition going forward. Notes in the Archives page is just for on sim.
