I have been using Hi Lo and playing mainly in 6 to 8 deck tables. I play the lower minimum bet tables ($5 and $10) because I am new to this and trying to keep it simple. But it seems like I only rarely get a high enough positive count to warrant changing my bet because of the count. So I have been using a betting system where basically I increase my bet by one unit after a win, and then go back to the minimum bet after a loss.

Does anyone have any suggestions for what might be a better system? Or any comments on the system I am using? When I asked about a betting system here before I got a few responses about how betting systems are no good. Does this mean I should strictly adhere to the counting method I am using and only raise and lower my bet according the the true count?
