The E.O.R. of the 7 is approximately ZERO.
The E.O.R. of the 9 is of some importance.
I count 9's as half the value of a Face Card.
Oddly and counter-intuitively, in Span21,
the 8 has a STRONGER E.O.R. than the 9!
Counting the 8's will rendera count weak
for playing decisions, so we do not use it.
These side-counts are beyond superfluous
because the 7's and 8's are of some minor
importance to the playing of STIFF hands,
where the adjustments that I make are
keyed to the potential bonuses that are
intrinsically important to winning at Spanish21.
Of considerable importance is the extreme E.O.R.
of ACES in an S17 game, a la Eastern U.S.A. / Canada.
