Hey, ive been reading these forums for a little while and well this is the only place i know that can give me a bit of information that i havnt been able to answer on my own:

Please give me examples of level 4&5 card counting methods...well even just their names would do.

"Level 4 & 5 strategies also exist. But this is overkill." <-- my inspiration, thanks for any replies.

I may be wrong so don't take my word for it if someone else has something to say, but I'd assume that a level 4 or 5 strategy would assign cards values of up to positive/negative 4 or 5 to differentiate your play & bets to maximize profits. The only drawback to these is that we're humans, and noone short of rainmain would be able to incorporate that into their play, and even he'd have a hell of a time doing it. I use a level two count, where 4s 5s & 6s are +2 and tens are -2 (other cards have values of +1 or -1 or 0) This is in my opinion the highest optimum count mere mortals can use.

Back in the '70's, Lawrence Revere sold his "Revere Advanced Point Count" for $200. It went; +2, +3, +3, +4, +3, +2, 0, -1, -3, -4. It had a BC of 100% and a PE of 52%. Later, it was found to perform only on a par with the finer level two systems. It's that law of diminishing returns.
