I've been reading on scavenger plays in the Grosjean paper and on the forums. Come up with these different scenarios.
-Going partners on doubles for a full bet or the remainder of a double for less
-Going partners with a player on a +EV Pair hand they weren't going to split
-Selling Defensive splits- Pairs that are correct to split but have negative expectation. This wasn't covered in Grosjean Paper so I'm not sure if I overlooked something here.
Based on BS EV tables though I came up with following list of splits that would be +EV to sell one of the hands on:
- 22 and 33 vs 2,3
- 33 vs 7
- 66 vs 2,3,4
- 77 vs 2,3,7
- 88 vs 8,9,X,A
- 99 vs 9
-Buying other players insurance or other sidebet in high enough counts(Would never do it for heat reasons)
-Buying other players hands for half their bet when they would've otherwise surrendered. Only for times they surrender suboptimally
-Selling my -EV hand for full price to allow a civilian to play it his/her way
Wondering if anyone has any advice, or recommended books/articles/threads, about how phrase the deals to avoid confusion where the civilian thinks that I'm entitled to less that the full amount of the scavenge play?
