I use Fred's KISS III count and love it.

In fact, I'm leaving for Vegas in 26 hours and 34 minutes. Can't wait to KISS the casino's ass.

Wait, that didn't come out right.

:laugh:

Red-7 "all indices"

Red-7 with all indices, started out with hi-lo lite.
Nottooshabby, I also use Red-7 and would like to use indices. Have you found/developed some beyond the half dozen that Snyder talks about in Blackbelt (e.g. a full I18 and the 4 surrender indicies)?

I didn't even know there was a NAME for my count until recently when I demonstrated it for Flash. All this time I thought I was original with my ultimate counting system that I have used for years, which has proven incredibly effective.

It's technically known as the "DHM System" and the ultilization of this counting method, combined with "the amazingly illustriously luminous 50 or so" that go with it are what I swear by. This counting system has given me astounding results. Maybe someday I will explain it or talk about it at length. I raised Flash's eyebrow's a bit when I talked about it and did a little counting demonstration, etc. The let down came when told my amazing system is not unknown and is commonly known as the "DHM System" and not the "(myname) System". I have worked with this meticulously for years to come up with percentages on the various index plays and it has really paid off.

So your the guy we heard about with the missing 1/2d of cards & the 6-2-4-1 countdown on 2d. DHM expert was one type of Gordan Count.

Cherry7Up,

Pages 62 and 64 of "Blackbelt" has a short blurb on The Advanced Red Seven Count, in addition to a few paragraphs on deciphering the strategy charts. Page 63 has the tables. For all shoe games, there are 17 indices, but they should only be used in the second half of the shoe; the primary half-dozen strategy changes should be utilized in the first half of the shoe. Commit these 17 indices to memory; believe me you'll be glad you did.

Eighteen indices for DD are also listed on page 63, which also apply to SD. These can be applied at any point in the pitch game. An additional fifteen indices exist for SD, for a total of 33 . . . I know it sounds like a lot but believe me if you play a lot of SD it really does become second nature. Good luck!

It would be interesting to know what counting strategies most people actually use. I'll be the first to start. I use KO
I use UBZ2 for single deck games and KISS 3 for multi deck games. Works well especially if keeping a side count of aces for the SD game.

ko but looking at others

Using now: KO

Considering: OS-UBZ2 or Uston SS
*this is off topic, but for those of u who have ready the thread about open sourced UBZ; would the same process be possible with SS?

Researching and possibly considering: DHM and BRH-1

Hi-lo

I played hi-lo my first three years, then played Revere Point Count for 18 months and now am back to Hi-lo. I guess I am one of the few people that "downgraded counts". Hi-lo good enough for me. Simple, so frees my mind to observe other things happening around me and strong enough to make money on the 6-8 deck games that I play most.
