Just calculate the TC and all your decisions are made for you ahead of time. Just execute when the time comes.
You can do all of that if you want to get backed off. Fact is that you need to sometimes over bet, sometimes underbet, sometimes stand and sometimes hit for cover purposes. You just need to do it only under certain situations for longevity purposes and accept a reduced but still positive EV. I often play rated and to get the comps, sometimes I might bet $100 at TC+2 and sometimes $75, I might often just stand on 10 vs 16 even at a negative -1 count or not hit a 12 against a 6 at TC-2. I might take even money at TC+1. Its all part of longevity tactics.
