My question is, how would this effect your ROR and hourly? Sounds like a job for Dog Hand.
Befire Dog hand gets to it - NOT WISE. Why would you want to do it anyways? And, if the count has gone down, The only possible justification is that you KNOW you're going into a rich clump The first bet looks odd to the pit - you lose that one, and then the second one, it looks like you're chasing - after that, your whole sim is screwed.
A far better approach - consider bucket betting. The idea here is that you ramp real fast initially and you have a high bet and a low bet within each of the subsequent true count buckets - you probe up and down within the buckets depending on win loss for the prior bet - increasing your bet into the next true bucket if counts goes up down if you lose. In other words you have bets that intersect with other buckets. Now, if you do have specific slug knowledge, you can increase your bet into a declining count. That's the beauty of a strong bankroll coupled with opposition type betting. Aveags about 4-6 units per hour.
Now, les say you normally play a $25 min table with strong bankroll, and the find yourself at a $10 table - the possibilities for creativity are endless
There's more, but your idea sounds dumb since your EV is already tied into your ramp.
