I do not use a traditional ace side count. I use a betting side count where I balance the Aces against the 3s. I add this count into the play count. Basically, I am using Hi-opt 1 combined with RPC.
When there are a lot of 3s out compared to Aces, I have noticed that doubling an 11 tends to do poorly. My sample size is no bigger than intuition, but it does lead me to a question. Can this information, Aces v. 3s, be used for play count adjustment?
