Hi Folks

As the title stated, I want to ask if anyone here has used Blackjack 6-7-8 Basic Strategy Cards developed from Hal Marcus. The strategy cards were discussed in the December 2003 issue of BJ insider news letter: http://www.bjinsider.com/MemberLogin.php3; titled: Counter Basic Strategy & Double deck games. I am not sure if they are included in the latest from Casino Verite. The strategy cards were used in the 3rd edition of Vancura and Fuchs Knock-out blackjack as their new rad strategy. It is something in between rookie and preferred with a few modified basic strategy entry changes. Also, since BJinsider don't sell the cards anymore, I am having trouble finding them. Thank you in advance.

@DSchles I managed to find a republication of the article here: https://www.lasvegasadvisor.com/gambling-with-an-edge/new-basic-strategy-for-counters/?srsltid=AfmBOoprk-S8UqGsqLFasfjnMtf39zGY3sFRkkqVMB3S7U5i27W7T5U4. The basic strategy modifications was discussed in the latest of Vancura and Fuchs' book. I was able to find images of Marcus' three basic strategy cards for 4-8 decks, 2 decks and 1 deck for dealer hitting soft 17. Vacura and Fuchs stated that it is a camouflage strategy. i am not at home right now. I will attached the three basic strategy screenshots to this replied post after I get home. I thought people on here might know something about this Counter Basic Strategy and can comment on its effectiveness etc.
