This reminds me that I've played a couple more count systems. Namely the Bish's Red7, Renzey's Kiss and Ed Thorp's original Ten count. I like what Renzey did with his Kiss count. Blast from the past. I just learned the Red7 with six variations from basic. I did this because my top bet came out at a HiLo TC of +2. Now the Red7 identifies this by running count with a high degree of accuracy. One bright day Don S. and I were at the same 2D table at the Sands LV. Back then it was great rules and about 13 cards c/o. Don's top bet at the time was 2 x $600 and mine was half of that. The count went well past the Red7's pivot and I was dealt a hard 15 vs. a dealer up-card of 9. I really had no idea if I should hit or stand so I looked over to Don. His reply, "Not even close", so there are limitations to the Red7. Thx alexost for our comment.

After switching to Red 7 (from using balanced strategies in the past) and bet ramping as per CVCX sims and Fred Renzey's similar KISS 3 bet ramp I can see from practice my variance is increasing.
Before it seems I was increasing my bet later than I could have and waiting for probably 3.5 to 5 percent edges for my top bet. And my edge before must have been much less than it could have been.
