Strategy search engine pays off!

I've been stuck with having to play those damn 6-8 deck games for so long the basic strategy for those is burned permanently into the back of my skull. Having had the opportunity to play a 2 deck game, I am glad I checked out the differences in basic strategy. There are only a few changes, and since they involved doubling or splitting I didn't think they would come into play much...wrong!

THREE times I had 9 vs. a 2 and instead of hitting I doubled, won 2 of the 3 times (I would have stayed on all 3 if I had just hit). And I gotta admit I was surprised to see I should split 7's vs. an 8, and one time got to do that, I won one and lost one, but would have lost if I hit.

I'm not a big BJ bettor at all, but hey, even betting only $15 a hand I made an extra 30 buccos. Bottom line, thanks for making those charts so easy to plug in to the conditions of the game you are playing!
