Index Interaction CVData

I've found this all fascinating. The advice given is also tremendously helpful. You never know when you will do something that brings up a question you would have never thought of otherwise. I am always excited when there is a new aspect of the game for me to understand.

I guess that there are different indexes depending on the rules, for example 16 v 10 may have a different index in the case you play ES10 or not, am I right?

e.g 16 v 10 may have a different index in the case you play ES10 or not ..."

OF COURSE, different rules e.g. H17 vs. S17, 8 decks vs 2 decks, DAS vs. NDAS, etc. alter indices

You mentioned 16 vs. 10 in an ES10 game. It would take a rather negative count to refrain from surrendering.

You would have a decision hierarchy. You decide on ES10 and for cases were you don't surrender you have the index. Now rules can affect your sim that generated the index. Obviously with a T up for the dealer the H17 and S17 index would be the same. On the other hand a 6 or A up you can expect some differences between S17 and H17. DAS/nDAS should only affect splitting indices. The number of decks used can affect indices. Anyway the H/S index shouldn't change with ES10. You will just surrender a lot of 2 card hands that you never get to contemplate the H/S index since ES is the first thing to consider in the decision tree. If you get to the 16vT H/S decision in the decision tree, ES10 doesn't change the index.
