    CVBJ composite BS split table contradicts Modern Blackjack p. 57?

    I have configured CVBJ to allow Double after Split under Global Options, so I expected that the recommended action for 6,6 against a dealer's 2 would be to split, as shown in the Composite Basic Strategy table at https://www.qfit.com/Book/ModernBlackjackPage57.htm . However, in Flashcard Drills, CVBJ is saying that splitting here is an error, and that I should instead hit.

    Under Global Options > Strategies, I have "Composite Basic Strategy" selected. Under Flashcards, I have selected Default Hands and have selected all situations. If I click "Split" on this hand, CVBJ says:

    You have made an error. Click on View Strategy Tables to view the table. [...]

    Actions
    Your Action: Split
    Suggested Action: Hit

    Hand
    Dealer has: 2
    Player has: Hard 12 (Pair of 6s)

    What am I misunderstanding and/or doing wrong?

    In the game, go to File-Backup, create a backup file and email it to [email protected]

    qfit support was helpful. It turns out that CV works well with the complete basic strategy, and that's what I should be using (rather than the composite basic strategy).
