Either the wizard's math is wrong, or I'm making a mistake somewhere in calculating this:
Basic strategy for a game with the 6 card charlie rule in effect.
Here is the wizard's strategy:

So lets look at an example
He says to hit a five card 17 v 2, but there are no numbers to explain his calculations
S17 8 deck, The EV of STANDING on, for example, 17 (2,3,4,5,3) v 2 is -0.151863

Now if we calculate the EV of hitting this hand (any no bust is an auto win) we get:
11(outs)÷46(cards remaining)= 0.239
subtract 0.761= -0.522
How is going for the 6 card charlie better than standing in this example?
Im finding that almost all the examples of hitting 17 are wrong, and hitting 16 v 2-6 is always wrong
What am i missing? I'm hoping im miscalculating this somehow, but dont think that i am...
