NEW Card Counting System! (CAC2 + CAC2 Enhanced)

[Freightman]

Just to clarify

I don't understand your comment. CAC2 is not an unbalanced system.

I was making reference to those playing unbalanced system, previously mentioning Cac2 as balanced

Great work Cac! I am wondering how it compares to Norm's FELT in terms of ease of use and performance?

Performance wise, it appears to outperform. Ease of use, I'm not so sure (just yet). Maybe I'm just super used to FELT, but the cancelling seems more natural for FELT for me.

As an aside, I think I underestimated the SCORE gains I was seeing in games that I play in my earlier posts. This does seem to be a pretty significant improvement.

Thank you! FELT is a simplified version of RPC. In fact, I believe it has the same tags.

Sincerely,
Cac

I understand and what you're saying is true only in the case of unbalanced systems that do not convert to True Count (TC). TKO would not be the case.

FELT-F beats RPC. But, I would expect CAC2 to beat FELT-F.

Cacarulo,

In Australia, the dealer does not take a Hole Card and No Hole Card rules (OBO, BB+1, OBBO) are used to compensate the player who splits a pair and the dealer turns over a natural. As a result, modified Basic Strategies are used and slightly different indices for the top 18 deviations. Also, we do not have surrender in this country. I assume that using your system with these sometimes unique rule sets may require changes so we can play a more accurate game.

Will you please advise if you have done this work and if I purchased your system via Norm then the changes would be included. You can PM me if you wish.

Hi davethebuilder,

Unfortunately, it's impossible to cover all the variants that exist in today's world. I also believe that there is no book that covers ALL the Australian variations.
That's why, to play BJ seriously, it's essential to have suitable software, both for practice and for analyzing specific conditions.
In principle, if the variant you're facing is OBO, that would already be covered, as well as 8 decks, which is typical in Australia. I also cover ENHC.
You can find the indices and simulations for 8 decks in the add-in that comes with the booklet. By the way, the add-in works with CVData/CVCX.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
Cac

Dear All,

I am excited to share with you the birth of a revolutionary new card counting system. After growing tired of the same
old systems, I have dedicated years of research to developing a simple, yet powerful system that surpasses all known
ace-reckoned and balanced systems in terms of SCORE. In collaboration with Zenfighter, we have created a new approach
for calculating Playing Efficiency (PE) and Betting Efficiency (BE), as the existing methods were based on single deck and
less relevant plays in today’s blackjack landscape. Our focus has always been on shoes, as they are the most common
scenario in modern blackjack games.

During my research, I stumbled upon new tags with PE values that exceeded those of existing systems. I continued to push
further, conducting hundreds of simulations to compare the SCOREs of each system, ultimately discovering a groundbreaking
level-2 system that outperforms almost all commonly used systems, not only in 6D but also in 2D games. I have given the name
CAC2 to this system, and it exhibits superior performance compared to other systems such as Zen, Halves, UAPC, RPC, EBJ2, RAPC,
various level-3 and level-4 systems, and of course, all level-1 systems.

To provide a ranking based on the most common game conditions (6D, S17, DOA, DAS, SPA1, SPL3, NS, 4.5/6), I used the
top 22 indices (R22) that generate the highest SCORE for a counting system. These R22 indices are a modified version of the
well-known Catch-22 (C22) indices discussed in Don Schlesinger's book, Blackjack Attack, third edition. The only change I made
in the R22 is replacing 10vT with TTv4, which results in a better SCORE for most card counting systems.

I am thrilled to present CAC2 as a significant advancement based on much more accurate EORs than those used in the past,
which has allowed me to discover more relevant tags for modern play. Naturally, before offering the system for sale, it underwent
independent verification by renowned blackjack experts, including Norman Wattenberger. The table below was verified by him,
and the results are as follows:

Attachment 4983

Kindly note that the tags employed in the CAC2 system are not publicly accessible. This system is exclusively sold through
Norm's website, which offers comprehensive statistics, comparisons, indices, betting ramps, and other relevant information.
If you are interested in upgrading your current counting system to a more robust one, feel free to contact Norm for pricing details.
In addition, if you acquire CAC2 and already utilize Casino Vérité (CV), Norm may provide you with a special download that includes
all the necessary indices to complement CV. For those who opt to explore this novel counting system,
I assure you that you will not be dissatisfied.

I genuinely hope that you relish this new experience.

Enjoy!

Nice work. Norm and you should feel great. Could be a great thing for new players to use. I would use it for count games but I’m not learning different index’s all over again and count tags. But for people who only do count games and go from level 1 counts to level 2 it’s a great thing.

[Norm]

Thanks, but this is Cacarulo's work.

Thank you for the compliments! Not only for those players who want to go from level 1 to level 2, but also for those who simply want a change.
There are also those who move from level 2 to level 2 and those who want less mental fatigue (level 3 and level 4).
Norm has a lot to do with this endeavor, if it weren't for him, this system would probably have remained in the shadows.
Thank you Norm!

Sincerely,
Cac

Look it’s a great thing. I’m just a player who uses the math guys hard work. I envy the math guys. I understand the math but I don’t have the qualifications to create new card counting systems.

You guys did a great thing.

Hi Cacarulo:

what would be the % increase in EV in your system in a common 6 deck shoe game compared to Hi/LO_________?

maybe you already revealed that in your chart with the headings 1-12 and 1-16 - but I don't quite get it

thanks

You see the SCOREs for each system, for each spread. You form a fraction and read the percentage increases!

23.76/21.19 = 1.12. Increase is 12%.
27.84/25.04 = 1.11. Increase is 11%.
