    I was just messing around with the Efficiency Calculator.

    It seems that if you counted an Ace as 0 instead of -1 that the PE goes up by 09%. Though the IC goes up from 0.7601 to 0.8665 the BE goes up to .9662. What do you guys think about this? Would I have to keep a SC of Aces?

    What say you?

    Although I have developed the efficiency calculator, I will tell you to stop playing with it and just use Hi-Lo

    Your IC goes UP, not down.

    Of course you use a Side Count of Aces.

    PE goes up, IC goes up and BC goes down unless you side count aces then it either stays the same or goes up slightly.
