The Wong Halves system is a card counting method used in blackjack. It is considered to be a level 2 system, which means that it is more advanced than a level 1 system (such as the Hi-Lo system) but less advanced than a level 3 system.

The Wong Halves system involves assigning a value of 0.5 to certain cards (typically the 7s, 8s, and 9s) and keeping a running count of the cards as they are dealt. The player then uses this count to make decisions about when to hit, stand, or double down.

The Wong Halves system is considered to be less accurate than other level 2 systems, such as the Zen Count, but it is also less complex and easier to use.

This method of card counting is one that is quite solid and more often than not dependable at blackjack tables. It is also simple to master and manipulate its use according to the direction of the game

How were you able to know that much about casino games?
 
Players keep a running tally in their heads when each card is dealt when using the Wong Halves System. At the beginning of the shoe, they begin with a count of zero. The player adjusts the running count by adding or deducting the corresponding number of points as cards are dealt.
 
The Wong Halves System is based on the fact that high cards (10s, Jacks, Queens, and Kings) are more beneficial to the player than low cards (2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s). The system assigns a point value to each card, and players use this point value to determine whether the deck is rich in high cards
