    Of course the SCORE is poor.

    You are looking at a purely

    "recreational count."

    Are you forcing the bets or something else? In particular, are you using Rational Bets? This severely hurts HiLo Lite because of the way it does TC calculation. Here is the correct chart:

    Sim from first message.

    Norm's sim, maybe.

    Only difference is "Rationnal bets" vs "Minimum chip size"
    BTW, I will never play second.
    Even if SCORE is dramatically poor in first, ramp is better. So I think SCORE is irrelevant with CVCX and divisor by half deck in TC

    Divisor by half-deck in a level I count is a bad idea. That's why the SCORE sucks with rational betting. Ages ago I talked about the compressed true-count when dividing by half-decks in a level I count. The table shows this dramatically. 9.4% of hands a TC +1. 2% of hands at TC +2. Then a TC of +3 every few hours and a TC of +4 next week.

    In HiLo Lite, you divise by half-deck but you don't use directly this TC.
    As you calculate edge, you subtly reintroduce classical TC.

    But I think CVVX has no edge based betting strategy !?

    There is a betting by half-count option. Haven't used it in many years. But, it's easier just to divide by full decks.
