If you started the RC at -24 and 12 net excess small cards were dealt then KO calls for -12.
TC = -12/4 = -3. For Hi-Lo it would be +12/4 = +3 in this particular example.
If the RC is -8 it means that 16 net excess small cards were dealt. That would be -8/4 = -2
In average a TC of 0 for TKO means a TC of +4 for Hi-Lo.

You can work this out for homework
