    jimmtech: Ace advantage

    Is there a chart that lists the specific advantage at various true counts when you KNOW your next card will be an ace? I am trying to determine the optimum unit to bet (play all, 1-12 spread). Obviously spreading to 2 hands max bet at TC+4 would be great, but what about lower or minus counts?

    The specific knowledge of the next hard far outweighs the general knowledge of the composition of the remainder of the deck. You should place a maximum bet in almost every case (and why spread to two hands?).

    lelo: about 50% EV

    it it is 52 or 54% depends of the rule details, but is it important?
    advice: do not spread, just bet on the hand that gets the A the table maximum. play basic strategy if table max is low, avoid soft double if max is high in comparison to your bankroll.
