But, from your paper, this is (not?) the way this is done. I would assume the multinomial coefficient of the given split rank values to determine the overall Expectation of splitting 22 v 6 for SP2. Assume we draw an Ace after splitting to 3 deuces, we have a MC of 4. We then take this MC and times it by the overall weighted expectation for each optimal action (similar to our SP1 example.) However; drawing a third deuce is not guaranteed and so this method is wrong, correct? As per your paper, what I just described is incorrect and there involves some level of detail that I am missing.
