Hey y’all! I was wondering whether basic strategy or the respective deviations are a better option than surrender.
Below are the cases I was curious about (these deviations are from BJA charts, which means they are oversimplified, partially incorrect, and involve taking risks by exchanging every bit of +EV play):
H17:

  • 17: Stand/Surrender against A
  • 16: Surrender/Hit/Stand[3+] against A
  • 15: Hit/Surrender[-1+]/Stand[5+] against A

S17:

  • 16: Hit/Surrender against A
  • 15: Hit/Surrender[2+] against A

Both H17 and S17:

  • 16: Hit/Surrender[4+] against 8
  • 16: Surrender/Hit/Stand[-1-]/Stand[4+] against 9
  • 16: Surrender/Hit/Stand[4+] against 10
  • 15: Hit/Surrender[2+] against 9
  • 15: Surrender/Hit/Stand[0-]/Stand[4+]

Any ideas and insights are greatly appreciated!"
