The insurance count could be considered a specialty count since you are solely keeping track of 10's. But another example of a specialty count would count the queen of hearts separately since it's worth more than any of the other 10's.

Right, like Jacobson's recommendation for shoe games of
A-9: +1
10 - K: -2
Qh: -6

He says max at TC +10 but I wanted a bit more info that that. I'm just curious if anyone has sims with variance, ROR and BR requirements, etc on a solely LL count system excluding playing the bj hand.

That sounds pretty good. Honestly I haven't played around with sims, but with the side bet, when you start to get an advantage, it'll probably rise quickly. So for optimal bets, at the strike point it may be optimal to bet a little bit less than $25, but since they usually have a $25 LL max, after the strike point you should probably be betting the max of $25. If others have variance and EV numbers, I can get the RoR and BR requirements.
