    Gramazeka,

    That is an old review by a person who is 'persona non grata'

    He accurately points out that the best part of his book has to do

    with his "dynamic betting." I have been using said technique with

    my mini-team play for many years, though it had never before

    appeared in print. Those wishing to discuss this in detail should

    feel free to contact me by posting a 'throw-away] g_mail address

    assuming they do not already have a regular email address for me.

    Hi Lo + 7 (+0.5) and 9 (-0.5) = EBJ 2. Indeces are the same

    Good system. I also use this system.

    I think that you are referencing The Mentor Count, which uses the ZEN
    tags for counting but uses two-deck division for computing the True Count.
    It appears in The book by Renzey -- "Blackjack BlueBook II"

    Not. This is EBJ 2.

    Gram, do you have a link to the e-book or any other info about the system? If so, could you link me to it? I think its a really good system for 6 and 8 deckers as well ! The 2-card combos make the cancellations almost effortless to count, freeing your mind to feel relaxed and even focus on other things..It also does very well with your positive index plays, making it an ideal count to wong out with....

    for pitch games, this is not a count that I'd employ due to the low P.E.

    I agree, that it would be a dreadful count to use for pitch games(unless modified)..But believe it or not, its pretty simple to use for multiple deck games and seems to be spot on with certain index plays in positive counts..Where probably talking peanuts here compared to the other ace-reckoned level two's, but again its the cancellation factor that makes the EBJ2 attractive and enticing to play...Maybe we can see how it sims up to the others in the near future...

    Generally, I use the Base 10 count system although there was a time I when I used hexadecimal to keep my checkbook so my wife couldn't determine how much money I had left.

    However, I think your question had to do with card counting and for that my weapon of preference is HiLo with an appropriate set of indexes, for reasons that are broader than the technical analysis. Please don't let this thread slip into another "mine is better than yours". If you are doing plumbing , use plumbers tools, if you are doing heart surgery, then use surgical tools.
    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!

    I used Hi-Lo for four years, and have now used Halves for the last seven. I found Halves to be an easy upgrade coming from Hi-Lo, since the index numbers are almost identical, and nine of the 13 ranks have the same tag in each.

    But I spend most of my AP time counting at Spanish 21 instead, in which I use a non-published counting version that includes a level-3 ace side count. Annoying, but the simulations show it is worth the effort.
