seats. For each count, the total bet in units, number of side bets won, advantage, and Win Rate in dollars are provided.

Percentages Tables

Ø  True Count Percentages – Here we see some percentages arranged by true count.

·         The first three columns show win, loss, and tie percentages grouped by true count at the start of the hand.

·         The next two columns provide the numbers throwing out the ties. Here we can see that we do not win more hands than we lose until a ridiculously high count.

·         We also see the percentage of splits, doubles, insurance bets, and Blackjack by count. Splits and doubles are highly dependent on indexes used. The percentage of hands that are Blackjacks substantially increases with the count.

·         The total amount bet, and average total and initial bets are also provided. The average bet should increase at higher TC’s when using an effective system.

Ø  Running Count Percentages – Here we see the same data as in the above table, but by running count.

Ø  True Count Distributions – This table differs in that the percentages are vertical. That is, the first column provides the distribution of hands by true count. For balanced counts, we see that the largest percentage of hands occurs at a count of zero, and that barely any hands occur at very high and low counts.  

·         Data is provided for total hands, Blackjacks, splits, doubles, and insurance. So, for insurance we see no hands at low counts. Remember that the count at the point at which you take insurance is not the same as the count at the start of the round.

·         Percentages are provided by percent of hands and percent of amount bet.
