Hi Grassyknoll63,* (like the inference)
--- Regarding side counts: I actually use an Ace side count for insurance, the top play of the I-18, and for a few other select plays. The Ace side count is sometimes dissed when people talk about Hi-Lo because it is already an Ace reckoned method, but I find adding an ASC useful and quite easy. (OK, it's only easy after a lot of practice). Mr. Wong in his book Professional Blackjack, 1981 edition says:*
"Keeping a count of aces in addition to your primary count (either the High-Low or Halves) will allow you to make better insurance decisions and better strategy decisions. A side count of aces, accurately used, will add-about 0.1 bets per hour to your expected-win rate."
Stanford Wong created entire tables of play indices for every different play incorporating the ASC, but later deleted these as being too complex for the average player in future editions of his book. But I still successfully use the ASC for a select few and especially insurance.
---Regarding your bet spread, it looks very reasonable to me. You can perfect it mathematically by simply buying the CVCX product from Norm which can gain you access to the CVCX-online too. It's simple to use and quickly gives you optimal bet spread ramps for any casino condition.*
Cheers,
Ole
