I am attempting to find the optimal play and betting strategy for a specific side bet that forces me to follow some unusual rules for counters. Putting these into CVData to have it help me crunch the numbers has proven difficult, and I hope it's not impossible. My first obstacle is to create a side bet (in this instance, whether or not you push with the dealer) that I will only participate in if the count is <-4 or >4. I cannot seem to find a way to do this, as to program just participating in the side bet if the count is 4 or more requires me to use 5 Side Bet tabs, and to merge them. I cannot seem to merge tabs into separate groups to assign separate parameters for when to bet with them if more than one side bet parameter needs multiple tabs to be programmed.
My second obstacle comes with being able to implement a bet spread. Due to the strange nature of the focus of my play, I need to test spreading my bet out from 0 to both negative and positive counts, ramping up to max bet at both -5 and +5. However, whenever I attempt to have more than 9 rows in the bet spread, I get an error that states "Run-time error '9': Subscript out of range", and the program crashes. I can't really think of a way to get around this.
The closest thing to a work around I can think of is to have two separate hands that are playing two separate strategies, one that plays if the count is negative, and one that plays if the count is 0 or more, then finding the average of the two's performance. The data from this would be at best absolutely unreliable dogshit, so I would prefer not to.
I would appreciate assistance in my ridiculous endeavor if anyone has the knowledge to help.
