I've always wondered this on A,7 versus 3-6. BS says to double down. But if it's not allowed it says to then stand instead?! If you double down you get a card and BS must be sure it it's going to be a good hand since it's telling you to DD. But if you can't DD it says to stand...taking away the possibility of getting a better hand by hitting.
So my question is, why don't we just hit if we can't DD? Seems like that would be the correct move for times when we can't DD on hands we are supposed to.
This fact used to really bother me and now it's bothering me again since I am encountering it more and more while I learn more indexes that say to do the DD and then stand if you can't.
Some insight please!
