    According to no one in the universe but you. The Hi-Lo insurance index for six decks is 3.0, and it isn't debatable.

    Don
    I have carefully thought about the insurance index again. For this particular hand situation of 16vsA, there are three possible card combinations: (10, 6)vsA, (7,9)vsA, and (8,8)vsA. The insurance indices for these situations are +3.3, +2.8, and +2.8 respectively. However, there are more (10,6)vsA combinations than the other two. Taking all together, we get the insurance index for this particular situation: 3.3*(8/11)+2.8*(3/11)=+3.2.
    I hope this is correct.
