A unique play in all of blackjack

Interesting problem. A6A would be an exceptional multicard S18 situation where hitting is still the better play. On the other hand if you get A7vA and somehow, you know that the burn card is A,2 or 3, standing would be the better

Interesting. You are referring to 3 separate situations VS. 1. In any of those situations, you still need to know the count. Further, where in the deck are you - what is the specific density of those cards in their specific situations. With a known ace burn card for example, you could adjust your insurance threshold given other factors. I would think that excluding high probability dealer blackjack, beyond strike point, that hitting would be the way to go. You would insure in that case. You should know the density of other card groupings as a whole before making that decision.

They’re similarities in decision making criteria comparable to 16 v dealer 10 in positive counts where the 6 is one of your cards.
