Thread: Relatively new counter here -- Few questions about systems/indexes/tables !

    Awesome ! I've been practicing my Zen count. I got it from being off by 3 every time in like 90 seconds to being spot on 9/10 times in about 30-35 seconds, in the last day and a half. So I'm very excited about that


    Something that I've always struggled with is counting my draw cards into the RC, while also counting my hand. Any suggestions on this? One idea is to keep the count in my head, then think about addin up my hand when cards are given to me. After I draw (hit) all the cards I want, I count the draw'd cards and add/subtract to the RC? Another idea would be...say I have like 9 going against a dealer 7, that I hit until my draw cards add up to 8 (or more), if that makes sense ?

    I have a question about the index plays chart. They're read as: "Stand if I have 13, dealer has 3, and the index is -3 or higher (so -3, -2, -1, 0, 1...etc would all be stands. -4, -5, -6, -7 would all be hits.) ? Is that correct for all of the charts? (Except for the ones with the **, which mean "do this if index # is lower than this".)


    Then I'll go ahead and start learning the index plays, like the ones that are closer to 0. I'll learn the ones that are more spread out (like doing something when the count is at +18 or -18 or whatever), later.


    Is this all correct ?

    Some of the Index plays are more important (more valuable) than others.

    You need to do some homework.
