UAPC Soft D vs. Wong Soft D

[Dopple]

I opened up my old Professional BJ by Wong just for fun last night and noticed they dont suggest doubling A2-A5 vs. 3 at any count.

Now according to my trusty UAPC indices we find this favorable at 4, 4, 6 and 6 from top to bottom.

Is this just another one of those inexplainable discrepancies we find in this endeavor?

Someone must be right and someone wong here, no?

I am by no means anti-Wong but just wonder about this difference. This is a pretty major difference and it will occur fairly often at least at TC 4.

Farily Often is Fairly Rare

My updated Pro BJ has these indices in the back. I also think the older one does in the back?

They are not worth much. No soft double is in the catch 22 fab 4 and TC 4 does not happen that much also. Learn them if you want, not worth much.

Griffin, Wong, Snyder and Schlesinger I don't think mention them in importance.

Thanks for the feedback I was just curious, I would not want to be without them I know that but you might have more experience than I.

Did you really have to break out the whip?

They are not worth much. No soft double is in the catch 22.

A/8 vs. a 5 or 6 are in the catch 22, and should be doubled at +1 TC or higher.
The big difference with soft doubles comes when you get beyond A/5 -- to A/6 and above. That's when your chance to make a completed hand with one hit reverses from 38% -- to 62%.

They were the additional ones. Thanks for the correction

Herein lies another dilema for the meticulous mindset. How can the UAPC for the 5 and 6 Mr. Renzey sites be at +3. I could understand double as my tags are 1223221-1-3 perhaps just rounding errors like a tolerance buildup?

I jump on the A8 v 5 or 6, one of my favorites. Makes me feel cool but;; when HI-LO is one-third the index value of UAPC could you shave off .3 or .5 from the UAPC index and find it to be the correct move in most cases. I dont count to the tenth but I know when I have a solid TC3 or it is a little shakey.
