Hi this is my first post so here goes.
When playing with Six decks and only 5 are actually dealt, is it possible to adjust your pivot point to take into account the 56-60 cards that will never be dealt out while keeping the advantage?
Example - When playing Casino Verite 6 decks and setting the simulator to 99.9% penetration, I am able to reach my pivot point on multiple occasions. When I adjust it to what I would be playing in the real world, I notice that I can barely reach the pivot and when so, the cards don't go much deeper into a true count advantage.
I play KO with a running count and I set my IRC to O. My pivot would be + 24 which would mean that I have the same number of high cards vs low cards and I would start placing my max bet. In between my pivot, I have ramp bets at + 9 + 12 + 15 + 21 depending on how many decks have been played. The problem that i have now is that I only see my count go up to + 15 or so before the shoe ends. I have not been playing long and it could be do to the fact that it's how the cards come out, but I noticed a big difference in that I am not even able to get my ramp bets in never my my max bet. It appears that I could be missing out on opportunity if I am not able to adjust the pivot to reflect the remaining cards that will never be played.
I'm sure there is some sort of math function that I am not thinking about, but I guess why take into consideration cards that are never going to be played??
Well thank you for any insight that you may have while I continue my journey.
