Because there’s a built-in house edge to the game! This isn’t blindingly obvious to you? Wow. The point of playing proper strategy isn’t to guarantee that you win, it’s to give you the *best shot* at winning. How can you possibly not understand this? If you risk a dollar on a coin flip and win only $0.95 on a correct call of heads and only $0.90 on a correct call of tails, the correct strategy is to pick heads every time, but you will still lose in the long run. That doesn’t mean the strategy is flawed, it means that in this game the odds are against you.

No, that is NOT AT ALL what we are saying. We are saying that the EXPECTED VALUE of standing on 20 is higher than the EV from splitting. We’re are absolutely NOT talking about the probability of winning.

What are you smoking? The number of times 10,10 vs. 6 appears is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is that when you DO have 10,0 vs. 6, what is the proper play? The proper play is stand. There is Zero question about this.

By the way, you are NOT smarter than the Wizard of Odds. Nobody doubts that he is the undisputed expert at gambling math (except, apparently, you, which certainly makes you the minority).

The fact that you even brings this up only reveals how poorly you understand the situation. They casino has no fear of supplying you with the proper strategy card (or allowing you the proper play) because THE OVERALL ODDS ARE AGAINST YOU NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO.

I agree wholeheartedly! By all means, let’s play this out. I’ll be the bank and deal you 1000 hands where we start out with 10,10 vs. 6, and you can split to your heart’s content. Then we’ll switch and you’ll bank 1000 hands at the same exact stakes, only this time I’ll stand.

Are you ready to put your money where your mouth is? I doubt it.

Watch the diggs clown

I said i’m done with this, go back to your losing probability calculators and leave it alone

This was only intented to offer some alternatives to my buddy Stupid and his dilemma, it was not intented to bring out blackjack go off central situated here at CAP

I won’t even comment about how clueless some of you guys are, and Nolan who just makes up his own set of house rules as he goes along, like that not being able to double down on a 10, wtf
