Thanks for the input KJ and RS. The new "Dog shit cake" count is the highest SCORE for single deck straight up. No DAS. Double hard 10,11 only.
The simplest way to describe it is: Wong Halves with the 2 at 0 and the 7 at 1. This reduces the count of 1/2 tags from 4 to 2. Therefore, several insurance options can spin off the count.
1.) separate count for perfect insurance.
2.) move the Ace to the other side. A RC of 8 will always be 50% for the 10,9 tags vs the A, 3-7 tags.
3.) You could keep a separate side count for the 2,8s. A RC of 16 will always be 50% for the 10,9 tags vs A,2-8 tags.
There are 3 variations one could utilize and not give up much in SCORE. However, you're back to counting 4 1/2 points instead of two and insurance is more complex to calculate.
1.) give the 6 a 1.5 tag and drop 3 to .5.
2.) drop the 3 to .5 and up the 2 to .5. Moving the Ace is still an option on 1 and 2.
3.) up the 6 to 1.5 and the Ace to 1.5. Note: Perfect insurance is the most practical solution.
Whew! Got that settled. Now it's the 10 piece bucket at KFC for $19.95 Sunday special. Comes with a FREE - you guessed it, chocolate cake with white frosting. Life is gooood.
