Aceside is not completely wrong. It has been more than two years since Don and I first started talking about the project and about two years since the work started.
I have been seeking an answer to this simple question for a long time: what is the relative importance of betting spread and deviation index play in blackjack card counting? I’ll read your book to find out.
Depends on the spread, number of indices, rules, penetration, strategy, decks. Not so simple. Although there is a brief discussion in Theory of Blackjack page 48.

You said two long lines but basically said nothing. Given a fixed bet spread, if we compare a 2-deck (1.5-deck penetration) game and an 8-deck (6-deck penetration) game, what are their relative importances, respectively?
If you think it meant nothing; read it again until you understand it.
Given a fixed bet spread, we can easily expect that deviation index play becomes less and less important with more and more deck numbers. But, how does the relative importance vary with the number of decks? Mathematically?

No, but I have an autographed copy of Wong's Prof BJ. He signed it for me at a GC Party.
Just going through my closet. I have an autographed copy of Arnold Snyder's fiction book, Risk of Ruin, about a professional gambler-biker-tattoo-artist who becomes obsessed with an underage stripper who believes she's God.

I thought you and Snyder didn't get along. He's very complimentary to you in his latest book, "Radical Blackjack."
