-1 or lower | -1.00% or more | 0% |
0 | -0.50% | 0% |
1 | 0% | 0% |
2 | 0.5%x76% | .38% |
3 | 1.0%x76% | .76% |
4 | 1.5%x76% | 1.14% |

By using this table, you can determine the optimal bet for any bankroll; just multiply the figure in the last column by the amount of the bankroll. Thus, for a bankroll of $3000, the optimal bet for a true count of 2 is .0038 X $3000 = $11.40.
With a $3000 bankroll, a betting schedule could look like this:
True Count | Player's Bet | Optimum Bet |
0 or lower | $5 | $0 |
1 | $5 | $0 |
2 | $10 | $11.40 |
3 | $20 | $22.80 |
4 | $40 | $34.20 |
5 | $50 | $45.60 |
6 | $60 | $57.00 |
