Did I do it wrong?

[Freightman]

I am hoping to develop a strategy for when to split and when to stand with an 8,8 hand against a 10.

Wow. You do not need software for this one. You play hi lo. Buy Wongs Professional Blackjack. Everything you need to know on this one, and much more, is in this book.

Hi lo stand hit double split split after double tables start around page 252. Early late surrender tables are around page 92 (not in all printings).

Oh, I'm at the coffee shop - some things are simply ingrained.
