Red 7 vs. KO

[Mackhack]

Hi all,

I read something about Red 7 Count and that it's suppose to be better than KO?

Does anyone has a comparison about it?

I don't have any numbers for you, but Red7 does perform slightly better than KO.

Interesting... May be I have to read more about it. But I think I will continue using KO!

Read about it in Blackbelt in Blackjack by Arnold Snyder.

In actual play R7, KO, and HiLo are equal, and KO is the easiest. zg

Unfortunately, most sims of Red7 count the 7 as .5 instead of Red Sevens as 1. That makes the sims inaccurate. Accurate sims (done by Cacarulo) give the edge to KO except for poor penetration games where R7 has a small edge.
