HIGH-LOW
This method of counting assigns a point value to
each card. Basically, the strategy is to bet more
when the “HIGH-LOW” point total is higher.
When the “HIGH-LOW” total is low, bet less.
Helpful Hints:
1. Always Split on pairs of Aces or 8’s.
2. Always Double down on 11.
3. Always Stand on Ace + 8 and Ace + 9 combi-
nations.
4. Always Hit on hand totals of 9 or less.
5. Bet 50 when the “HIGH-LOW” total is +5 or
higher.
6. If the dealer shows an Ace, place an
Insurance bet when the “HIGH-LOW” total is
+2 or higher.
7. Always Stand on hard totals of 17 or more.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
This game is powered by two (2) AAA (LR03)
