    If you know the next card (only one card) is a ten-valued one.

    Would you split tens if the dealer upcard is 4, 5, 6 or 7?

    What dealer upcards would you not split against? 9, 10, A for sure. How about the rest?

    When TC is two or three points higher than threshold. The bigger difference above the threshold, the higher player's advantage is. When TC is just about the index threshold, it is about 50/50.

    I split TT vs 5 or 6 only. Even then it's when the play is triggered by the count and to convey a steaming posture.
