    In between bj?

    In-between corrections First it is with 6 decks, house cuts out 2 decks. Second any spread larger than 3 card spread = 1:1 payout not 2:1

    Match the dealer based Hi/Lo True Counts

    BJCount, Something does not make sense to me in what you posted. Especially when the TC's are very negative the win rate should be large as the TC approaches some very large negative number. I am thinking of writing a sim today to figure this out. Here is what I have for the logic part...

    single deck 7,7 vs 10 "The only time you'd stand is if you couldn't surrender -- which is never. " Assume you did not know for sure you could surrender in all casinos in the world so you tell the play to stand. No?
