    European 6 decks game beatable with a 1-2 spread?

    CVCX says that a 6 decks, S17, DAS, DA9, ENHC, no surrender, 75% penetration game has a slighty positive EV with a 1-2 spread using High-Low with only the illustrious 18 indices without backcounting... does this seem correct? same rules, with a 10000$ bankroll and a 1-10 spread I should average...

    Strange results with CVindex (CVdata)

    Nevermind, I redid the simulation and it now says to double when tc >= 1, which seems right Should I use greater accuracy instead of standard or do you think the strange results were due to something else?

    Hi, I'm using CVdata 3.1 and trying to generate the index numbers... after setting up the Uston APC values of each card I ran some simulations and the program tells me to double down a 9 versus a dealer's 2 with any true count greater or equal to -1 Basic strategy tells me though to hit a...
