Can qfit/CV tell me the importances of each index?

[black221]

I own the qfit suite of software and I want a sorted list of every index play, sorted by how valuable each is. I want this mostly because I can't memorize all of them, but want to prioritize my thinking and have a good sense of what I'm gaining.

I understand the I18 and the revised I18, but the importance of an index play is a somewhat deterministic thing and I want to start going beyond just 18 and know what I'm gaining.

This seems completely deterministic from a simulation based upon the bet at the time (high value index plays are more important), splits/doubles (more money in play), the amount the index play changes the outcome, and how frequently the deviation happens.

Any thoughts?

Most are obviously unimportant from an index generation results. But, ordering indices by value requires an enormous amount of work. That speaks to the importance of the I18 study. To accurately determine under a set of specs the real order, requires that you test each one with billions of hands. And, that isn't even totally accurate as indices affect one-another. I once came up with an idea on how to do this automatically. But, the effort was well beyond the possible gain.

It isn't remotely possible to answer such a question without specifying all the particulars for the game, rules, and spread you will be using the indices for. In any event, you have the Catch 22, and they are ranked. If there were many more that were valuable, I would have identified and used them. So, be content with those that are already catalogued and don't worry about the others.

By the way, splits (other than tens) are rarely worth much at all because of the low frequency with which they occur.
