Taboo (Warning: Explicit!)

First, the count you use depends on what you are looking at doing long term. Are you looking at mostly shoe games, shoe and "pitch" (1 & 2 Decks), or simply "pitch"?

I'd like to be as versatile as possible and to be able to take full advantage of higher EV games, I live in the mid-west and there appears to be a handful of DD games in my area (According to the DB in CasinoVerite - Though I don't know how accurate/up to date that is) Though being versatile in this context may be to learn multiple counts for different games?

I'll take your advice learn a L1 and once I'm confident that I have a winning game and am comfortable executing it in a casino setting, then look to add more tools to my toolbelt.

Third, I would recommend you take heed that everyone has a personal favourite count.

I will definitely note this. When attempting to find more information on Hi-Opt II a lot of the reading involved people at each others throats at a level that possibly could be described as tribalism. Lol.

Just out of curiosity why is Hi Opt II's indexies in RC instead of a TC? (If I'm not mistaken?) Also, when keeping side counts such as ASC how do I apply that information in my betting? Not that I need this information today as I will be starting at a L1 I'm just curious.

Another thing to consider.....are you ever going to join a team? Most teams use HiLo. If your using a different counting system, you wont be able to pass or receive the count.

I'll probably need to develop the skills to be put on a roster before I consider joining one. Though, this is true if one is to learn a language it's probably best to learn the one most spoken first.
