OK. Kudos to parker for figuring out why Zen was coming up short. I did a quick check, dropping the LS option, and it makes _all_ the difference. Now Hi-Lo keeps min bet at 5, while zen goes to 10 and almost doubles hilo win per hour as a result of the lower ROR producing a bigger min bet.

It's also good to know that I was not doing anything wrong here. I simply picked a DD game I play reasonably frequently, both close by and in Vegas.

Now, until the next bit of fun, back to some counting drills here.
