M: Don: EV's

[M]

BJRM shows that the EV increases roughly by 0.5% with every point in the Hi-Lo and RPC counts, for example. However, only by 0.25% with the Zen and UBZII counts. what is the reason for this and would the Zen have 0.5% increases if it where true counted by half decks instead of full decks?
i think it must mean something that at +4 one count has a 2% advantage and the other only 1%.

thanks again for your help.

Advantage by TC is affected by the strategy level and TC divisor. Yes, Zen would increase by 0.5% if counted by half-deck. It really has little meaning as far as the effectiveness of a strategy. You just bet at different levels. The only problem is if the advantage increase per TC is too high. 1% per TC makes it more difficult to select an optimal betting ramp as described on the software page.
