If you count 2-7 as +1 and Tens as -1 with ace being side counted for betting purposes; that count in RC mode will rival the Halves in the 1D game. If you look at the stats of this count, BC is 0.974 (note this count defaults to KO's BC), PE of 0.625 and IC of 0.891. In 1D, play variation is just important as bet variation. Also, the greater your non-flat bet, the more valuable the insurance bet.

In TC mode for betting and playing, this Level 1 count will beat the Halves in 1D and 2D, even though the halves is a level 3 count. Per Brett Harris Unbalance TC theorem, the IRC is -8 per deck is you want to use TC mode.
