    Whip: Complete newbie...

    I'd like to learn an effective system to start out with but not too easy. I was hearing the KO system is pretty good. Where can I find this info? Is it an e-book that I have to purchase or can this info be found for free?

    Actually, it is a real honest ink and paper type book that you can order from our online catalog for the princely sum of $17.95 plus shipping & handling.

    It is a good book, with much information about blackjack and casino play in general, in addition to all the information on the specific counting system.

    If this would represent a major cash outlay for you, then you probably should not even be thinking about playing blackjack in a casino.

    However, you can find out more about KO, and can learn the complete KO Rookie system at the website linked below, absolutely free of charge.

    The KO book and system are good, with one caveat: The basic strategy in the book is correct for multi-deck, i.e 4+ decks, WITHOUT double after split (DAS). Almost all multi-deck games allow DAS.

    The book gives a generic basic strategy trying to make the system as simple as possible. If you play S17 DAS 4+ deck games, use the appropriate basic strategy for splitting. Or, invest in software to calculate additional departure indices.

    NOTE: Multi-deck DAS Pair-Splitting Basic Strategy appears in Footnote 21 (Coincidence?) on page 30. Also, you should avoid multi-deck games w/o DAS--all Atlantic City and almost all Las Vegas multi-deck games have DAS--unless the game has some compensating rule or playing condition, e.g. good penetration.

    WOW!!! I had no idea the ko count was that powerful. According to the ko site, you can get a .6% advantage over the house in a six deck game with only a 1-8 betting spread. Suppose one could get away with a 1-20 spread(playing 2 hands of course),and walk from bad tables. The heck with other systems, KISS(Keep it simple stupid)with the KO count.
