    So that reduces the 0,41 house edge but not enough. Right? Is that because of the fewer DD opportunities?

    Right.

    Don't know. A sim would tell you if the frequency of DD's was decreased.

    That's what I call a clear answer. I certainly won't contest your math. Thanks Don!

    I just looked up this so-called Tarzan count, but it shows four columns (2-5, 6-8, 9, 10's) of counts with ASC. How can he handle such a complicated count? Tarzan must be a genius!

    Did I say something wrong here above? Why two unhelpful comments?

    Tarzan is certainly a brilliant mind with a deep understanding of the game but he described himself in a thread as a "trained dog".
    Proper training goes a long way in any field.

    Tarzan's humor is also very subtle. I had my laugh of the day a few minutes ago when I found out the latest news about Nicki Minaj. Until his post I had no clue who Nicki Minaj was as well as her cousin. What a way to draw attention from the White House!

    Nicki Manaj is just another typical American politician, not a blackjack player. What I want to discuss is more into the Tarzan count, but people here keep stepping on “unhelpful” without saying anything.

    There have been many Tarzan count threads in this forum. You can just Google it to find them.

    I just studied up about this online. It seems BJanalyst, seriousplayer and you have had intense discussion about this, but the real inventor and executor Tarzan has been silent on this. You are very knowledgeable!

    Apparently you just read the current Tarzan count thread on this forum. Actually there are more threads 10 or 20 years ago on blackjackinfo before this forum was born. Then Tarzan was more active on posting, like this one (see #19):

    Sometimes I like to revisit old threads on blackjackinfo. It is like visiting old friends. Most of them are no longer with us.
