This play is pure offense driven so the dealer going pat has no effect. I keep wanting to find hidden value here because the extra value of a completely unconventional play like this would be priceless. I'm trying to find a way to sim this play versus playing the conventional way. Even if the play is close to break even versus the normal strategy the gain from this looking so ugly to the EITS is very valuable.
The basic strategy edge for splitting 5,5 ONCE vs. dealer 6 in 6D, S17 is +13.6%. The BS edge for doubling the same hand is +59.9%, and there isn't a positive true count on the face of the earth that will ever make up that huge difference.
