Hi,

I am new to play Spanish 21. I am trying to simulate the strategy listed on Katarina Walker's book "The Pro's Guide to Spanish 21 and Australian Pontoon" in CVData. I have 2 problems:

  • Page 14 shows a "Forfeit Strategy". This "Forfeit Strategy" is contradicting the chart above. For example, in "Forfeit Strategy", player 12-16 V.S. dealer 8, 9, X, A is always "F", which means "Forfeit". However, in the table above player 12-16 V.S. dealer 8, 9, X, A is all "H", which means "H". Which strategy has priority?
  • This particular Casino that I am playing at does not allow late surrender: I can surrender at first 2 cards, and I can get half of my money back after doubling. I don't understand how the table should be adjusted in this scenario.


Is there anyway to get a hold of Katarina so I can ask her some questions? I am assuming her strategy must have been simulated before. Could anyone please give me some help?

Any input is appreciated.

Regards,
Rui
