Also that George C is siding with his preference for Rounded Indices for All Number of Decks being a completely viable option. I would like to use Norm's CVIndex index-numbers instead of George's found in his book for one. What is the IRC that Norm proposes in his CVIndex program again? please? I forget.
    One big problem I have with CVCX when I compare a double-deck game between Unbalanced Zen 2 vs. Arnold Snyder's Red 7 count for the game 50% pen H17, DOA, Spl up to 4 hands, No surrender, I see Unbalanced Zen performing worse in so many ways. Why would CVCX portray this? Thank you for all of your input ahead of time. Greatly appreciated. I am not interest in discussing the benefits of True Counting vs. Unbalanced Counting systems please but only this question to be answered. I am not interested in true-counted level 2 or 3 systems nor multi-level systems, nor am I interested in side counting. I just want this simple question answered please and thank you. These days I prefer/enjoy Hole Carding more.

    Is there anyway you can share this ebook with me? I can't find any material on this count anywhere. I would love to try it out and know more about it

    Can you count shoe games as well by employing HI OPT II.?
    Is it tougher? Does it require more practice to use ACE side count on shoes? Are you able to chit-chat, watch TV, talk rubbish to the dealer simultaneously (whilst maintaining the count easily)?

    Both the Unbalanced Zen and Balanced Zen is equally as good. As I was told by players who uses the balanced zen count.

    Utter falsehood. Not even a defensible position to debate.

    Above ASSUMES that one is not looking for a recreational count

    Like everything else, it depends on your objectives. For some people UBZ is better -- for some Zen is better. I tire of those that claim any system is the best for everyone according to their personal objectives..
