Thank you Freightman! I was going to ask it from Bigplayer referring back to his initial reply in the beginning of the thread.

The casino where i play at mostly i spread to two hands on high counts (2x50-minimum of 5€) on an 8 Deckers and even though i have to sit out many shoes the heat can be smelled every now and then...But i couldn't care less..they cannot see into my brain..

Go play ping pong everyday for a few weeks. The skills you develop there are the exact same ones required to keep two moving numbers accurately in your head: Your score and your opponent's. The numbers fly around much faster in your head at the card table, but the concept is exactly the same.
I play cards professionally and use a complex count where both counts can get somewhat large(-ish) in number at times - i.e. the snapshot of a less frequent / outlier running count could be -42, +36, whatever. I think using two numbers is the best method. If you use letters for the side count then there is extra effort required to transpose that count back to its numerical value, and you already have enough to think about, like true count calculation(s), scaling bets / betting adjustments, index plays, being cognizant of what's going on around you and how you are being perceived by others, etc.
Ping Pong.
Grama' ... You are only partially correct. Those counts (K.O. and T.K.O.)
only perform well when you are utilizing an aggressive bet spread
and have the bankroll to keep your Risk of Ruin to a reasonable level.
I have many students whose games I have improved mightily by rescuing
them from counts that ultimately lead to meager earnings and BACKOFFS.
In America the casinos seem to be a bit more paranoid when it comes to playing winning blackjack or when facing a winning card counter...I just don't understand why some PRO'S suggest 'burn and run' strategy? Some of yous are so aggressive with their bet spreads i suppose.
