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 41$
is cvcx screwing with me? is it possibile that the 5s in the decks are replaced with jacks even if I'm not told and I bought the program (as it happens in other trials made by the same company)?

but cvcx says that with those parameters (without wonging in) I'm basically playing an even game (0.076% advantage)

I got different numbers than you. Doing play all with a 1-2 spread, you will go broke. With a 1-10 spread you will have a .538% edge over the house. You won't make $41/hr either unless you are betting at an insane ROR. On a $10 table you should make about $7.54/hr. Maybe you incorrectly entered your parameters?

I highly doubt that the 5s have been replaced with jacks. What benefit would this be for the vendor to screw you?

$7.54 seems awfully low for a $10000 br. I don't have any Idea how to figure it out myself but Kevin Blackwood says in his book to multiply your top bet by 25-30% to get your average winnings per 100 hands. This would be$25-$30 per 100hands/hour. Is he talking about single deck?
