Are there counting systems out there for freebet blackjack, super fun 21, bj switch? If so, what is a typical player advantage? I didn't include spanish 21, since the edge in counting is like 0.06%. Links and books are appreciated, though I have a very extensive library with a big order on the way and would prefer articles online.

Actually, I think the most common non-BJ blackjack game to be counted is Spanish21. There is a book about counting it. Something like "card counting Australian Pontoon". Not sure if it's still on the shelves or not -- the author died a few years ago, I reckon.
Free bet BJ seems to be the most similar with normal regular blackjack. I don't know of any count systems for it. But would probably be the easiest to analyze.

The book is called " The Pro's guide to Spanish 21 and Australian Pontoon" by Katarina Walker. It is a well written text explaining why Spanish 21 is beatable and how to do it. It explains the Hi-Lo count and how to use It for this game and it is still available but I'm not sure where to get it in the US.

I've heard nothing but good things about this book. I really need to add it to my library.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.
