Just wondering if anyone knows of a website on how to pronounce the exceptions for counters. For example 一回 is いっかい and not いちかい. Unfortunately many of the sites I have found only offer exceptions for like the 20 most common counters, so it doesn't really help a whole lot.

1.1.5.6. Compound pronunciations
・ If a kanji that ends on つ or ち is followed by a kanji beginning with a か-column, さ-column, た-column or ぱ-column syllable in the same word, typically the つ or ち is replaced with a (small)っ to effect a double consonant.
・ If a kanji that ends on く is followed by a kanji beginning with a か-column syllable in the same word, typically く is replaced with a っ to effect a double consonant.
