Hey!

Having trouble with the girlfriend so I started playing with numbers.

Am I correct in assuming that the betting spreads found in Chapter 10 (from BJA) where based on a gain-per-TC-point of .517%?

If so, can an optimal betting spread be generated for any count simply by dividing the bet by .517 and multiplying by the alternate count`s gain-per-TC-point (found by dividing the inner product by the sum of the squares of your respected count) to arrive at the optimal bet for that TC?

Good lord, I don`t believe I just posted that.

Hmm...let me try again. If I`m using the RPC, dividing by half decks, can I simply add .04% to all the optimal bet spreads from Chapter 10 and be happy?

Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers!

(p.s. Norm, if you`re out there, I have a standing bet with my imaginary friend. I say that with full indexes, Uston`s +/- count will edge out Hi-Lo over a wide range of games due to the increased gain from the better Pe. He says I`m crazy, I say he`s nuts...who`s right?)
