I'm making the switch from hi-lo to Omega 2. Is there a difference in the illustrious 18 using this?

The index numbers would vary between systems (especially with systems of a different level), but I believe the hands in question are the same.

Alright. I'm wondering because my friend is asking about when to take insurance. He feels hi-lo determines how many tens are left in a shoe while omega 2 does not.

Insurance Correlation (IC) for Omega-2 is 0.85.
On the other hand, why are you switching to Omega2? ???

I'm mentally capable of switching to a more complicated system without errors. I was considering Zen but I feel tracking the nines is important.

I did some searching and apparently the new index numbers are in Blackjack for Blood. Must find a PDF of that or something.

I don't think there's going to be much accessible info on Omega2. If you're playing pitch games and already know Zen, then side count 9's if they offer surrender, if not, then SC 7's. In the end, your system doesn't really matter, especially if you're playing shoe games. But going from one system to another similar system is not going to change a thing.

I was told in another thread that Resorts in AC has incredible blackjack rules. I'm going tomorrow to check it out. If it turns out to not be true I'm gonna just stick to poker lol.
If I can't find adjusted I18, I will stick to Hilo as well. As you guys said it doesn't matter that much and it's far more important to have the strategy changes down.

Incredible to what you may be used to but nowhere near what I would call incredible. The S17 games that I told you about are 8 deck with no surrender. I want to be sure you understand that. Good cards to you!

Well it's still a solid upgrade. The only times I ever went to Resorts were the rare times the Greyhound drops me off there. Lol
