    Question Which spreadsheet or software should I use for online live BJ???

    Hi guys! I just registered to this forum yesterday, so let me introduce myself and what I'm currently doing at the moment.
    I'm new to this BJ card counting thing but I've been reading some BJ counting stuff online and been testing the Hi-lo strategy counting system in online live BJ (with 50~60% penetration) for few months now. I've had 54 sessions in totally of 111 hours of playing time and winning around $13K~ in profit with 76% session win rate and $117~ hourly rate. My betting size are usually between $10 ~ $50 per box and I often play with 2-3 boxes at the same table or even multi-table (2 tables maximum). I usually observe 2-3 tables at a time and wait till the shoe become +2 or +3 before I sit down and start betting and then I sit out or leave the table once the count drop below +2. There are more than 10+ BJ tables I can choose from on that site so I can always find new tables. I know it's not a big enough simple to prove much but at least I would consider a good start especially for a newbie like me . But I'm sure there are still many things for me still to learn and improve in this game, that's why I'm here and now I have some questions below.

    1) Is it beatable with (50~60% penetration, 8 decks, no DAS, dealer stand on S17, no surrender, BJ pays 3/2, insurance pays 2/1) in a looong run in a standard online live BJ game with the strategy I mentioned above? I mean by using Hi-lo counting strategy and only bet when the shoe is +2 or above.

    2) I've heard x100 times the maximum bet size would be the ideal bankroll management I need for BJ. So currently my max bet is $50 so that would be $5K bankroll. But what if I play 3 boxes in the same table betting $50 in each box? Would that be the same or similar variance? or do I need $15K bankroll for that?

    3) How good/often do online casinos catch AP in BJ? Anyone had any bad experience like getting warned or account suspended/banned? or even not been able to withdraw winnings?

    4) Since I'm using the Hi-Low counting strategy, that means I'll need to adjust some of the play/action combined with the basic strategy chart. For example how much 'plus+ count' do I start splitting 10s vs 3,4,5,6 or how much plus+ count do I start to take insurance? When do I start/stop hitting on soft 18 vs which dealer cards? or when do I start/stop splitting 8s or do I ever double on 8 vs dealer bust card when the count are very high? etc etc...

    I want to find a software where I can type in the Hi-low or exact count and cards I'm holding vs dealer card and be able to calculate which action would be the best or more profitable in the long run. But so far I haven't been able to find the right spreadsheet/software to do so.... There is a spreadsheet/software called "Blackjack Sidekick" but their website are down already so I can't download it as that would be the kind of thing I'm looking for. Here is the video of Blackjack Sidekick https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGmXJBQIzmI

    It would be appreciated if I can get some answers and advice from the pros in this forum. Thanks for reading!
