2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 X A
Blackjack: 0.41 0.48 0.65 0.83 0.45 0.25 -0.04 -0.22 -0.56 -0.58
Spanish 21: 0.31 0.40 0.59 0.73 0.41 0.08 -0.20 -0.13 -0.39 -0.99

Now Let me list my normalized EORs for an 8-deck Spanish 21 game with DAS, DOA, SPL3, SPLA3, Hit-Ace, LS, DDR, and Stand-17. Normalizing means that eight cards are removed for each card rank, equivalent to one card per deck is removed, rather than one card per 8-deck shoe is removed.

2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 T A
Spanish 21: 0.32 0.42 0.61 0.76 0.43 0.09 -0.19 -0.08 -0.31 -0.94

This means my results are correct. Somebody stepped on dislike on my previous post, and this makes me re-think these numbers. Based on this result, I would say a simple Ace-5 count would be good enough to beat this game of Spanish 21.

i had an inquiry a few days ago asking if I thought you were CIF. I said I didn’t think so. I further replied that I thought your appearing stupid was simply an act, and that as hard as this may be for others to believe, that you were smarter than you appeared.

I further pontificated that you had a Dipshit6582 style. Am I on track? I likely won’t believe anything you say.

Reminds me of Dipshit6582

Hi Freightman, Please edit out my post in your quote because I just wanted to stir things up a little to have fun.

Freightman - Not only is it hard to believe that aceside is as stupid as he presents himself, but it's unbelievable that anyone who is shown to be wrong in 95% of his posts, just keeps posting wrong shit like the Energizer bunny.

Norm, you responded once that being wrong isn't against the rules. I think you need an amendment to your rules to cover the endless nonsense that aceside posts. As I'm sure you read on WoV, Eliot made a complimentary comment about the signal to noise ratio on this forum. I guess he missed aceside's posts.

Why would I do that. I’m complementing you. Very Dipshitish in fact. Only a very intelligent person could continuously author so many dumb posts. It takes talent.

Ace 5 count beats Spanish 21 - it was also very funny.

For some reason, there is a time lag on this forum. I deleted my post before Freightman quoted it. Please let Norm delete it.

There is no time lag. I was already responding to it before you deleted it.

I think purposely posted drivel and misinformation "just to have some fun" at, possibly, some unsuspecting readers' expense, seems to me to be a punishable offense. We don't need these kind of posters here. Again, had this been Don's Domain, aceside would have been gone ages ago.

God forbid! You're complimenting him! I trust you know the difference.

Indeed I do. What I don’t know is if I typed it that way or the auto correct got to it.

The autocorrect usually doesn't correct a word that is correctly spelled.

Of course not, however, when you type as bad as me, who knows what might have appeared giving auto correct possibly a choice of words…..hmmm

My favourite auto correct - There are many, including you, who know what a lulav and etrog are. Typing that, for this forum, auto correct came up with lullabies and estrogen.

Consider it a (which is it) complement or compliment, that you noodged (not to be confused with nudged) me to spell check more often - drives me nuts.

Which reminds me - Where is Zee - his sanctioned vacation has got to be over.

Ah, you have auto-correct set to Sephardic. I always pronounced it esrog.

Along those lines, I know someone named Malamud. His auto-correct always changed his name to Malamute.

And I'm surprised your auto-correct didn't remove the extra "m" you have in hmmm.

And lastly, I was wondering about Zee, as well. Hmm...
