the case of the exposed 10

someone didn't want to hit or something like that, anyway we know the next card is going to be a 10. I have 6, and the plopster to my left has 12 and 16. Dealer is showing a face. I wave and he signals for a hit. I explain to him the next card will be a 10 and he will bust, and that if the dealer has a small card he is sure to bust. I figure a 5/13 chance of winning is probably better than drawing on 16 since I'd gladly surrender the hand if it was an option, but what I left out of my explanation was that I was really hoping the dealer would stand pat and I could talk seat one into letting me slide table max < his bet under his bet. The pit boss is telling me to leave him alone but finally someone else at the table chimes in the idiot catches on and decides to wave too. Dealer did in fact have a small card underneath and we won, but I would've way preferred a 10% edge on a table max bet... next time!

14%... shame it didn't work out for you (well other than busting the dealer!) good luck on the next one!

The advantage to steer a ten to the dealer is 30% on every hand, less than the cost of busting some hands intentionally to get the 10 to the dealer

Next time someone should call out the universal code word for this phenomenon: Bo Derek

balderdash

and yet again

30% adv, how do u get it, can explain in mathematics?
if the dlr's hole card is always a 10, player play basic stgy all the times,
what is the adv?

I exposed a 10 once...and got arrested for indecent exposure.

It's quite simple, if you steer the ten to the dealer, the dealer automatically loses if their initial cards total 12-16. A soft 12-16 automatically becomes hard. This more than makes up for when the initial cards total 7-11.
