    No. See Griffin, p. 20, bottom. No doubling 6,2 vs. 5 is .130630. Doubling yields .130583.

    > How much do you lose by standing?
    The difference between the two expectations, multiplied by your bet size, multiplied by the frequency of the play, which is once every 1,100 hands or so. See BJA, p. 128, for the multi-deck versions.
