    Smooth bet question ramping

    I really want to focus on bet ramping this weekend. I want to open my spread up to 1 -10. I'm having a hard time developing a natural rhythm here. My goal is to get 3 units +2, 6 units +3, 10 units +4.
    I'm usually playing close to full tables so it's not unusual to get +4 mid shoe, play a round and be down to -2. In the past I would just drop down to 1 unit in this spot. With a wider spread now I'm thinking
    it's going to look very unnatural doing this. Would it make sense to ramp down slowly on these TC swings even though I'm betting more units in a bad situation? Say I win my max bet, count drops to -2, would it make sense to let max bet float here and adjust after next round? Playing like this would remove the choppy bet ramps, but do you think it would completely neutralize the +ev in the higher counts?

    Edit: I found this same question discussed may times here. I will spend more time searching before posting next time.
