Hiopt2/ASC definitely wins the best count when it is computer perfect. Not everyone is up to quarterdeck estimation accuracy. So, depending upon the individual, it doesn't necessarily win casino play. Modifications to Hiopt2/ASC to a balanced ace side count can take care of the deck estimation accuracy issue. Other casino play issues may also need to be addressed. Again, depending on the individual. What is the best counting system is completely dependent on the individual. Some may need to develop stronger skills when they change counts in order to get the gain they are hoping to get.

Moses replies: Sigh! T3, this just isn't correct. You and your buddy Flash have pounded this drum enough. For one thing, it simple isn't a practical approach to a shoe game. But then what is? KJ probably has it figured out as good as anyone. However, if you want to challenge your mind, hopefully not to the extent that it puts you in the "nut" factory, the Wong Halves with Perfect insurance is the solution according to sims. Tarzan seemed to have a solution. However, his extensive strategy was only "slightly" better than Hi OPT II/ASC. which is slightly worse than Wong Halves before Perfect Insurance is even considered.
As for pitch? Hi Opt II is a PE count. You're going to need deep pen, low tolerance, and high bet frequency in order for this count to have value in today's game. One simply cannot fly in from out of town and start pushing their weight around. Maybe Flash did it in the 80's. But unless you own a time machine? Faget abat et!
