Unbalanced Zen II Card Counting System
The card counting system in blackjack, first proposed by expert and player George C in 1996 in his booklet The Unbalanced Zen 2 and gained immense popularity. Refers to unbalanced 2-level 1-parameter counting systems. Playing efficiency PE = 0.62. Betting efficiency BC = 0.97. Often shortened simply to UBZ2.
In general, about unbalanced systems
They are more accurately balanced in that the assessment of the advantage, as well as the size of the deck, (in contrast, "by eye" in balanced ones) in unbalanced ones, this makes an array of cards for you (much more accurately). In accordance with this, you have a more flexible betting strategy, and an assessment of the advantage (which is reflected in more competent bank management for the game). For example, according to Hi Lo, you do not change the bet at +1.5 (because you are not sure, for example, +1.5 now or +1.3).
If you play according to an unbalanced system, you feel much more confident in these assessments. Do you understand my point? For example, according to Hi Lo, your betting strategy will be 1,5,10,15,20, then playing on an unbalanced one you will get 1,5,7,10,12,15,17,20. This is due to a more accurate estimate of the edges of the real account, such as +1.5 +2.5 +3.5, etc. In this regard, the win rate will increase, and the dispersion will decrease. You can clearly see this in simulations. On good cuts, this is especially noticeable.
DeborahTheMarvellous I'm really impressed with WinSpirit's new VIP program! The tournaments sound exciting, and it's great to see a casino actually listening to what their players want. Can't wait to see what they have planned next.
Parkerroberts This is a perfect example of why self-exclusion programs exist. They’re there to help people stay away from gambling. Trying to bypass them not only defeats the purpose but can lead to serious trouble like this.
Donaldbetty It's concerning to see such young individuals involved in large-scale cyber attacks. This shows the importance of investing in cybersecurity education and preventive measures from a young age. Hopefully, the authorities can get to the bottom of this and prevent future incidents.
HarrisJennifer3 Whoa whoa!
JasonTheDynamic The graphics are top-notch.
DonaldTheXtraordinary Wow, Jonathan Tamayo's win is incredible! But I totally agree with the conclusion. Poker requires so much skill and dedication. I’ve seen too many friends lose big trying to chase these rare wins. Slots are definitely more my speed – simple and fun!
HelenTheLoyal Wow, what an incredible win for Monica Bouma! It's true that the odds of hitting such a jackpot are insanely low, but it’s stories like these that keep people coming back. Congrats to her, though I'll stick to my smaller bingo games for fun.
HelenTheAmbitious It's great to see that Ontario is cracking down on unregulated gaming sites, but lowering the RTP to 85% feels like a sneaky way to take more from players. Regulation should mean better protection, not just more ways for the house to win.
CrazyDaniel Well, what can I say, guys, here's your trust for you. Instead of 96%, now it's 94% RTP.
ParkerSusan7 It's really disappointing to see someone with Drake's influence promoting gambling like this. Young fans might follow his lead without realizing the risks involved.
BarbaraTheYouthful Just another fantasy for the poor... No one really wins like that.
WilliamTheTenacious These new slots of yours are just another way to squeeze the last penny out of players' pockets. So where is the innovation here? Just beautifully drawn pictures and promises of big wins.
SandraTheXtraordinary Excited to see Wazdan's games coming to Fitzdares, but the reduced RTP is a bit concerning. Hope the gameplay still stays fun and rewarding!
CharlesTheLuminous Excited to see ODDSworks expanding in Ontario! Their games are top-notch, but I hope the lower RTP doesn't make it too hard to win.
RuthTheXtraordinary I can't believe how generous Nolimit City is with this tournament! 500 free spins and an iPhone 15 Plus for the winner? Count me in!
