Dealer hits soft 17.
Shuffle after every hand.
Double after split allowed.
Surrender not allowed.
Aces get one card each (no re-splitting).
All other pairs may be re-split to three hands maximum.
BS player, what are the player final totals percents for BJ, bust, 21, 20,19 . . . .5, 4 ?
Shuffle after every deal w/6 decks? Online? Simulation? Continuous shuffle machine?
Player final totals for BJ, bust,21,20,19....5,4 ? ...?
I don't understand a lot of the shorthand commonly used here, but I can often figure it out.
I failed here.

BJ | 4.75% |
Bust | ? |

Any value of 10 or less is 0%. You could double a 9 and get a 2. Soft hands are 12 and up. What side bet are you trying to beat this time?Quote: ssho88No counting, only use basic strategy

A player could have a very low total at the end of the hand when the dealer peeks for blackjack.
However, my question relates to splits. If the player splits and ends up with a bust and 13, for example, would the OP give each of those hands a weight of 0.5 toward the respective probabilities, or would each be given a weight of 1?
Yes, I stand corrected. Now, what's the side bet?Quote: ChesterDogA player could have a very low total at the end of the hand when the dealer peeks for blackjack.

Chester, I wouldn't answer this if I were you.
I agree with you, he shouldn't answer it ... but there's no harm asking.Quote: IbeatyouracesChester, I wouldn't answer this if I were you.
Ssho88 has a long history of big plays against side bets, along with just about everything else. He's one of the best here. His question makes me very curious.

Curious ? I am not as good as you think, but my team member is better than you think.
I am asking here just hoping to get a quick answer, my team programmer will eventually let me know the answer.
Egalite ?

I never thought about your team member before, now I'm not sure what to think, as any quantification leads to a contradiction.

A while back, of course. Not now.
What country are you in now?

Bust : 15.94%
21(non BJ) : 5.52%
20 : 15.62%
19 : 11.36%
