Would this be less than or greater than +0.01%? Or are these late surrender indices already calculated into the +0.24% figure given for ES10?
Beyond ES10, being able to surrender vs. 9 is worth virtually nothing (0.001%) to the basic strategist, and surrender vs. 8 is worth zero. But, as mentioned above, being able to surrender vs. 8 or 9 for the card counter who spreads decently is a very different story. The value of those plays obviously depends on number of decks, penetration, and especially spread. For example, in a 4.5/6, S17, LS 1-12 game, using those surrenders would increase SCORE by about 2.5%.
