Page 316, MACK Card Counting Strategy for Caribbean Stud Poker.
I have a hard time understanding this strategy table, for example, 3 matches of upcard Q , [A] = 1, [K] = 2, and dealer upcard is Q, what is the strategy ?
1) When [A] + [K] = 3 vs dealer's upcard Q, the proposed strategy is Raise ALL
2) When [A] + [K] < 4 vs dealer's upcard Q, the proposed strategy is Raise when stronger than AKQXX
So which one is correct ?

I don't believe I've ever seen a discussion of anything from this book on a public forum.

But his hole carding strategy card for Ultimate Texas Hold’em poker has been discussed here. Again, a picture is worth 1000 words. If you could post an image, I’m pretty sure people here will figure things out.

I'm not sure where that comes from. I've never seen the contents of that book discussed.

I am not posting the image of strategy table for copyright reasons. I am just hoping someone who has the book can explain to me how to read this table correctly.

If gambler has AK and one match with the dealer's card, then Raise is always the optimal solution.
For example:
AKQ83 vs Q ___ Raise -0.91 Fold -1.0
AKJ83 vs Q ____Raise -1.17 Fold -1.0
AK863 vs 3 ____Raise -0.93 Fold -1.0
AK542 vs 2 ____Raise -0.97 Fold -1.0
For example:
AKQ83 vs Q ___ Raise -0.91 Fold -1.0
AKJ83 vs Q ____Raise -1.17 Fold -1.0
AK863 vs 3 ____Raise -0.93 Fold -1.0
AK542 vs 2 ____Raise -0.97 Fold -1.0
