What about the Brh Systems Book ?? I can sell you my Brh Systems Book for $30 via paypal, it has my three systems, The beginner count is Brh-0, the power count is brh-I for shoe games, outperforming anything else at level 2.5 (ie 5=+3), and there is Brh-2, the best true counted unbalanced...

SCORE is a DERIVED measure.... LC, There is a short answer and a rather long answer. The short answer is for any advantage player, at a given time, will be betting with a given spread, say $B_min to $B_max, with intermediate amounts for counts in between. There are also the given rules...

Perhaps to go back to the old quantum mechanics days, the rounds watched can be called 'virtual' hands as opposed to the 'real' hands :joker:

Interpretation of NO... Guys, I have to say, it has been 13 years since the idea of minimizing N0 came to me, and it took perhaps 18 months to really sort out what was going on. Mathematically (and computationly) it had to be defined as including rounds for which the bet is zero. But just...

One Down Under Wonder to Another.... Lets face it, conditions here are crap. Once you eliminate the Dealer wins all strategies in Adelaide and Canberra - only play OBBO rules (original bets only) you are pretty much left to dredge Crown or Star City although last time I was as Jupiters and...

True counting adds a lot to UBZ11.. In response to Brock Windsor: I know the 'Zen' family of counts works best for single or double deck, but I decided to see the effect of true counting UBZ11 in 6d compared to running, or true counted Zen and here are the results: S17, DOA, 80%pen, no RSA...

Actually I tell a small lie... There is another count developed by 'Kim Lee' - otherwise known as Steve H. It was to the Zen/UBZ11 family what Brh-I was to RPC. As I remember it, he changed the '5' to +3 in Zen to give another level '2.5' count with a net unbalance per deck of +4. I believe...

Ace, When I was developing the Brh-I, since I had already worked out that any count can be true counted, balanced or unbalanced, I tried all these combinations. First using a simulator I had wrote myself, and then using SBA by Karel Janecek. The reason I used SBA, was that if anyone else...

What exactly are you trying to do? Ace, Dropping the 9 from the SS fixes the insurance problem, but buggers up the BC. The '2' shouldn't be counted as +2, it simply isn't worth that much in the standard Griffin EOR's. Cheers, Brett.

Reko? What the heck is Reko? Tag numbers please... Brett.

To Callipigian, When I said there is no difference between unbalanced and balanced count, I was referring to the case when both types of count are true counted. If someone tried to use Hi-Lo in running count mode, they will always know when the deck is positive or negative, but this only...

The true count is a measure of density of high cards relative to low cards. That means that at any point in the shoe, the true count is like a temperature, a high true count means hot, a low true count means cold. If a deck has 'gone cold', then the remaining cards have an excess of low...

But against Red-7? Its been ages since I did any really close comparision, that would not surprise me. I guess I have a soft spot for Red-7. Brett.

K-O is OK (ha ha), but the high pivot has always troubled me. This means that it is really inaccurate in running count mode for important playing decisions such as 16-T, 12-4, D8-6 etc.. the only biggie it is ok for is insurance. For a real beginner's count I would vote Red-7 every time...

Unbalanced are equivalent to balanced. Hi People, It's been a while, after I worked all this stuff out I went onto other things (quantum gravity anyone ;-). Firstly let me clear up one thing: There is NO difference between balanced and unbalanced counts !!! That sounds weird, but...
