Question Just to be sure.

For K-O it says take insurance at a RC of +3. I probably sound stupid but if I have a blackjack and dealer's upcard is an Ace, do I take even money if count is +3 or higher? I'm pretty sure I would, but I want to be 100% sure. Thanks guys.

Yes, it's the same thing.

Very close! Because the even money on a BJ is a sure thing, certainty equivalent math calls for you to take it at an ever-so-slightly lower point than you would take insurance. But it doesn't really make a difference.
