Side Count KO

NO! Since I do not know KO, I know nothing about related side-counts.

For SD, and maybe DD, may I suggest AO-II...see "BJ for Blood" by Bryce Carlson for specific suggestions as regarding Ace-side counts.

In SD only, I often also keep an "8-side-count", for Insurance purposes.

For a lesson on Futility, I suggest "LV BJ Diary" by Stuart Perry. IMHO, made things way too complicated via 1/4-decking multi-deck shoes, and side-counting to boot! Certainly, he won a few $, got laid once, and got barred/backed-off multiple times. Despite his skills, I suspect he created a monster in which his "Concentration" gave him up!

On the other hand, he got laid one more time than I usually do on my LV trips!

But I am CHEAP!

Re: Thanx Phantom

I do have BJ for Blood and will consider AOII in the future. I've only been at this a few months and not quite ready for level 2 yet.
Recently, I have been studying Bryce's +6 and -6 BS charts as well as the advanced indices. For now, I'm trying to modify my ko system using them, which braught me to the ace side count. I've heard of people using the ace side count for inurance /w KO but I didn't know if it could be used for playing purposes since it's not an ace neutral count. Thanx again

Re: Side Count KO *LINK*

I have created an ace side count system using the K-O point count values, and it is comparable in strength to the best multi-level ace side count systems. See the link below for a comparison with Hi-Opt I and Omega II.
