Redhook: Re: Side counting question...
Thanks for the response Don!
What if I were to count each 7 as +0.5 and each 9 as -0.5 instead? I am guessing that this would be a "watered-down" Halves count, since only the tag values for the 2 and the 5 would now differ from Halves. Do you have any idea what type of improvement this count would have over Hi-Lo? Also, since Hi-Lo has a better insurance correlation than Halves (per table D18 of BJA3), would I want to just disregard the side count info for insurance decisions (assuming this new hybrid count also has a worse IC than Hi-Lo)?
