Hello, I'm running some tests to calculate house edges with various rule variations.
I just built my own simulation test program and I'm getting results that seem odd.
Example test:
I'm running 100,000 shoes of 6 decks with 75% penetration. This usually comes out to just under 4.5 million hands played.
Splitting up to 4 hands. Double after split allowed. Late surrender allowed. Dealer Stays on S17. Can double on any 2 cards. Draws 1 card only after splitting aces. Blackjack pays 3:2.
I flat bet $5 each hand and after running this sim about 10 times I'm getting approximately 0.675% house edge.
This seems a little high from a lot of the reading I've been doing.
The player is following the guidelines I found in this link:

using the Dealer stands on soft 17 chart.
Any suggestions on why this might be coming out high? Also, almost every website or book I've looked at shows different house edge percents and a lot show different basic strategy charts.
Thanks.
