MathProf: Know Your Customers :)
According to the "Top 25" stats, Hollywood is the second most prolific poster on this page. He has 145 posts, which is twice that of the third place poster.
In his previous posts, he indicated that he plays KO. He also indicated that he plays in AC, so maybe my 1.5 decks was not a realistic assumption.
I will try to link one of his former posts.
I think you should try to know your customers a little better : )

Yes, you have a good memory. I only play KO.

Hi Norm:
The Pen was at 75%. 6 deck shoe game in AC. At the 2 unit bet I was at -4 4 unit bet was at 0 and 8 unit bet was at +4. DOA/DAS/Split 3 X.
I hope this helps
Thanks,
Hollywood

Norm Wattenberger: Ahh, having all the info helps:)
As I said in my first post "As MP says, an unbalanced count is not accurate throughout the shoe. But, how often do we get deep enough to matter? Since the ramp in the KO book is a might conservative anyhow; your bet likely was fine. Just didn't work." Indeed, your bet was correct given your ramp. In fact, it could have been higher. The 2 unit bet was a bit risky at -4. Your 4 unit bet at 0 could have been higher.

This is as I suspected. You bet 8 units at the pivot, and it makes no difference what the depth is for the pivot bet. It's right everywhere.
