So you are saying if you draw a 4 for a total of 14, then you will hit again? You will hit a 12 vs 6, a 13 vs 6, and a 14 vs 6?! Wow, I assumed you would stand on a 12 or more vs 6 like every expert on the planet (in general circumstances). This is extremely common BJ knowledge. If you are hitting on 14 vs 6 rather than stopping at 12, then the expected return drops even more!
So what strategy do you use? Hit on hard 16 or less, regardless of dealer upcard?
Aha
Gotcha now
I would stand, but that has nothing to do with the odds, you can’t just throw in if’s and assumptions into your calculations, imagine everything in life was like that.
You can’t factor in human behavioural patterns into mathematical formulas, what are you going to do, add my dna to the probabilities chart.
Now howard, thats not very nice, you know i don’t like you, so i wouldn’t want to hear you say that to my face.
