On the few occasions when I insure a hand, only to have to later surrender it, eyebrows are raised. I'm thinking it might be prudent to only chose 1 or the other. Thus, as a rule of thumb, I don't insure hands 12-14, and take my chances since I figure the lost ev for hitting them is minimized. (I never surrender 17, since I've never seen anyone else do it.) I'm a CVData newbie, and can't yet sim this, and thus allow for for varying counts to determine whether to only insure or surrender. Besides, it might overload my mental resources
Am I too paranoid about both insuring and then surrendering the same hand and thus sacrificing significant EV?
