The card counting system used in this program is based off of the Easy Red 7 Count by Arnold Snyder. The basic premise is that when there are more high cards (T,J,Q,K,A) in the shoe than there are low cards (2,3,4,5,6 and red 7), then your advantage over the casino is greater than their advantage over you.

The Red 7 count may also be used for the Seven Unbalanced count. Applying the generalized playing strategy change formulas to insurance and using the insurance indices shown above, we can see that in the 2-deck game, starting our running count at -4, with the Red 7 count we would take insurance at any plus count. In this video, we explain exactly what the Red 7 card counting system in blackjack is and how you can and should use it. By the end of this video, you'll be. A complete blood count (CBC) is a test that counts the cells that make up your blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Your doctor may order a CBC as part of a routine checkup or to. A high red blood cell count means the number of red blood cells in your bloodstream is higher than normal. Normal red blood cell counts are: For men, 4.7 to 6.1 million red blood cells per microliter of blood; For women, 4.2 to 5.4 million red blood cells per microliter of blood; For children, 4.0 to 5.5 million red blood cells per microliter of blood.

Red-7 is almost equivalent to hi-lo count + counting all the sevens as (1/2) each.
rc.u = unbalanced running count = 23456+ (7p/2) - TAp
tc.b = balanced true count
n = number of decks
dp = decks played
dr = decks remaining
rc.u(tc.b) = unbalanced running count corresponding to a balance true count of tc.b
rc.hl = hi=lo running count = 23456p - TAp
rc.u = hi-lo + (7p)/2
if hi-lo has a true count of 't' then rc.hl = t*dr and
rc.u = rc.hl + ExpVal(7p)/2 = t*dr + 2*dp = (t+2-2)*dr + 2*dp = (t-2)*dr + 2*n

Number of Decks = 6

Red-7 Running Counts Corresponding to Various
True Counts for an Eight Deck Game

Estimation of true count with the Red 7
in an Eight Deck Game:

1. Estimate decks remaining
2. Compare Red 7 running count with 16, 16 + dr, or 16 + 2*dr for true counts of 2, 3, or 4
3. Use calculated true count with High-Low strategy indices.*

(*Ed. Note: Membrino is suggesting here that you may use this true count method not only to estimate your advantage, but also to alter your strategy with all Hi-Lo strategy indices. This is not the way I have developed the Red 7 in the new Blackbelt, but if you used a Starting Count of 0, then you could use this true count methology with any standard set of Hi-Lo count-per-deck indices. --Arnold Snyder)

Sensitivity of True Count to Errors
in Estimating Decks Remaining:

1. The closer to the pivot point, the less sensitive the true count is to errors in estimating the decks remaining.
2. At the pivot point, the true count is independent of the decks remaining
3. Pivot Point of the Red 7: True Count = 2
4. Pivot Point of Hi-Lo: True Count = 0
5. At True Counts ≥ 2:
   (a) Red 7 is closer to its pivot point (tc=2) than the Hi-Lo is to its pivot point (tc=0)
   (b) Red 7 is less sensitive to errors in estimating decks remaining when calculating true count.
   (c) Red 7 gives more accurate true counts than Hi-Lo.
