Interesting idea but wouldn’t that mean
1.4 for not splitting = $140 profit per round (2 x .70) (which i agree)
6.72 for splitting = $672 profit per round (but the max profit to be won is only $400 and thats if you won 100% of the time) ?
It’s not an idea, it’s a fact that any mathmetician will confirm
Before i go on
How about a nice round of applause for my opponents, in particular, michael and nolan who battled gallantly to the bitter end
It’s the roi(return on investment) that is 6.72 compared to 1.4
as opposed to playing one hand where the roi is 0.56 compared to 0.7
it’s the only formula that can be applied to this situation
If you want any more answers, dig up Einstein, leave me alone i’m tired, i’m seriously done with this thread
To answer your question quickly, you have to factor in that you have 4 favoured hands up against one significantly weaker hand
Whereas splitting one hand gives you 2 favoured hands vs 1 weaker hand, and since the standing 20 hand is such a big favourite, it’s not enough to make your split profitable, but it’s those 4 favoured hands vs the one weaker hand that make the split on 2 hands much more profitable in the long run.
