KO vs HiLo
I am still just getting my feet wet to AP BJ and trying to decide on a counting system. For me I would rather first learn a simple count perfectly than try to jump in with a complicated count. So I've been looking at HiLo, KO, and REKO. I saw somebody say in a thread that most users here use HiLo or Zen. I was wondering why KO isn't used more than HiLo? Now obviously the fact that KO is an effective strategy is a bit counter intuitive. But so are a few basic-strategy plays -- in the end I trust the math. According to this post on qfit (https://www.qfit.com/KO-HiLo-BlackjackComparison.htm) HiLo only out performs KO in terms of c-SCORE in certain edge cases that we don't really see in real games anymore. Does anybody dispute these findings? Is HiLo used more simply because its more well known? or does it have other practical advantages that don't easily present themselves in theory?
I apologize if this gets asked a lot. I tried the search feature but I think "KO" is too short of a term to show up in search results (in fact it is too short to tag in this post)
