In your example, you claim you can do ace prediction in one sixth of your hands, and not predict in five sixths of your hands. 1/6 of 51 percent advantage is 8.5 percent advantage (I prefer computing in percent in order to reduce zero digits). 5/6 of -0.5 percent is approx. -0.4 percent. In summary, this is 8.1 percent overall advantage.
