    Don - I'm looking at App. E in Wong's Prof BJ. 6D H17 dealer shows 5. Hit EV = .138 Double EV = .141
    Are his numbers wrong or does the 8D game vs. 6D game make the difference?

    My choice, T2 v 4, 6D S17, stand EV = -.211, hit EV = -.210

    21forme, with A-2 vs 5 in 8D S17 we are looking at 0.136331 vs 0.136360 for a difference of 0.000029 while your T-2 vs 4, 6D S17 shows -0.211115 vs -0.210364 for a bigger difference of 0.000751

    Shame on you! Where would you guess I got the answer from?

    Actually, this comes from an old contest we had on Don's Domain a long time ago. I'll try to do a few more.

    Splitting 8, 8 v T is actually the correct answer, according to my book (as yet unpublished).
