Instead of using the level 2 Monkey Count can you do sims for Spanish 21 S17 using Kat's original HL for all playing strategy variations and use HL + 5mAc for betting and see what happens. Using HL and 5mAc, all counts are level one and no new indices need to be learned since you are using Kat's HL indices for all playing strategy decisions. Only betting is changed using (HL + 5mAc) for betting instead of HL. Everything else is the same as Kat's original system.
If you want to be precise and adjust the betting ramps then for each HL true count player's basic strategy advantage increases by 0.5% but for each (HL + 5mAc) true count player's basic strategy advantage increases by 0.4%. (HL + 5mAc) has a greater SD than HL so for a given true count, (HL + 5mAc) will reach that true count more often than HL will and thus more betting opportunities are revealed using (HL + 5mAc) for betting.
There are two types of betting errors using the less efficient HL as opposed to more efficient (HL + 5mAc) and they are (1) betting when you should not be betting and (2) not betting when you should be betting. (HL + 5mAc) fixes both of these HL betting errors.
