all the information you need about KO is in the book "KO Blackjack" it costs under $13 and is a worthwhile investment if you are serious about cardcounting with it. go buy it, read it, then report back here for further details.

You can also find these answers in the "Free Counting Resources On Web" link at the top of this forum. It will give you a good introduction to card counting.

okay, im prolly nto gonna buy that book..........and ive already read it, except how to count for key count..........................and for hi-low system i read it but i dont understand.......so i was lookin for help on that.........like i understand how to get the true count.....but do i forget about the running count, and start a new running count from the true count i calculated?

No, keep the same running count until the shuffle. Just calculate the true count when you need to make a betting or playing decision.

I thought there is no true count conversion with KO, isnt that why it is so easy?

You are correct...it is an unbalanced count.
