Default Beating the Pair Square side bet.

Is it possible to beat the Pair Square side bet with a regular counting strategy?

http://wizardofodds.com/blackjack/ap...tml#pairsquare

(any pair pays 10:1, suited pair pays 15:1)

from other sources it looks like the house edge is around 6-10%

I was wondering if at a particularly high count (or low count) would this bet become advantageous? Or would the count at which this side-bet become worthwhile be unobtainable.... The reason I ask is because at several high counts i have received pairs of 10s Faces or As, but don't know if this can be exploited. My feelings are that such a huge edge is not going to be overcome with a straight count... but what do i know!

thoughts/inklinks? thanks!
