I find very bad advice
Wizard deceptively suggests you split 8-8 vs a dealers 10 upcard, citing that this is your best chance of winning according to the odds…wrong, wrong, wrong…he is telling you to put twice as much money into a pot where you have a much less than 50% chance of winning, the casinos must love this guy, there is no way in hell this is a sound play, the percentages favour you losing both hands, the only correct play in this unfortunate situation is to hit, you will likely lose no matter what you do, but at least you’re not being a fool by losing twice your bet.
Now if you trust somebody who would advise you to put more money into a pot you will lose 3 out of 4 times then that’s entirely your choice.
A 16 against a 10 is terrible hand. Regardless of if you hit or stand, you are expetected to lose an average of ~55% of your bet. However, if you split you have 2 8s against a 10 and stand a smaller chance of a loss on each hand. Your average loss in each hand is 24% of the bet per that hand, making your total expected loss ~48% of your initial bet. So if you hit or stand you lose >50% of your initial bet on average, and if you split you lose <50% of your initial bet on average. Once again, your problem is not considering losses.
I consider Wizard of Odds to be the most authoritative expert on the Internet for BJ odds and strategy. It is silly for you to claim to know better when you seem to not be aware of basic blackjack rules and seem to have trouble following basic algebra.
