Default Lucky Ladies roundup

OK, the question often comes up- "How do I play Lucky Ladies?"

Here are the strike points and their typical yields for a bunch of different counts and situations. Both the LL9 and LL10 paytables.

9 meaning it pays 9 to 1 on a suited 20?

I have always waited until a KO +8 for this bet, since KO is inflated a bit above its pivot point +4. I have never seen an analysis based on pen before. Generally where I've seen it, the pen is 1.5 or greater. I am surprised at the difference between LL9 and LL10.

Come on, I can't do them all! I picked a bunch of commonly-used counts, plus a few that are especially good for Lucky Ladies. Guessing that you would treat AO2 like you would treat Zen.

Great chart, AM!
lacking ONE thing - the value attributed to Qh for side count. zg

Yes, but with inverse +EV attributed to Ace-lean. zg

Default Thanks for the chart

Is it possible for you to post the Effect of Qh?
What count is required ignoring the Qh-Qh 200:1 and higher payout for double deck? (atleast for hi-lo)

The effect of the ace vs. 9 bias you can see in the difference between High-Low and Revere Plus-Minus. It's hardly anything, and it doesn't affect the strike point. The ace and 9 are still negative cards relative to the LL bet.

Counting the Qh is easy and relevant in the DD game, where if either Qh comes out you tweak your strike point higher, but I don't think it buys you much in the shoe game. I'll have to investigate that.

What exactly is the LL10 table?

I've seen LL9 as 4-9-19-125-1000, is that correct?
