I have read Don Schlesinger's work on the Illustrious 18. I am a newcomer to the card counting world and while I understand the plays and the theory behind deviations from BS, I do not understand what deviation to make. For example, for a multi-deck game BS (from the charts that I have found and please correct me if I am wrong on this) says to surrender with a 16 v 10, but the Illustrious 18 is telling me to do something different, but what?
Maybe I am a complete moron, but I do not understand what strategy deviations to make for each play as Don does not outline them in his text. I guess what I am looking for is for someone to list the strategy deviations as well as to outline what the deviation is (i.e. if you would normally hit, the strategy deviation using the Illustrious 18 would be to X).
Remember, I am an newcomer and I am not looking to be criticized on my lack of knowledge so if anyone is sincerely willing to help please respond.
