The value of those plays obviously depends on number of decks, penetration, and especially spread. For example, in a 4.5/6, S17, LS 1-12 game, using those surrenders would increase SCORE by about 2.5%.

    Thanks Don!!!

    I AM spreading pretty hefty on the 3.5/6 S17 ENHC ES10 DOA DAS RSA 3SPL Game:

    Negative and Neutral Counts: 1x5

    +1: 2x50

    +2 and above: 2x100

    It would probably be worth my time to memorize these surrender plays which would probably add at least a $1 to my hourly EV!!!

    An interesting issue. I came to Croatia with [USD] dollars and the country uses [KN] Kunas but at the blackjack tables they use [EUR] euros. The casino gives me around 97% for conversion of USD to EUR but local currency shops give around 98% USD to KN while at the casino you can take the KN and exchange direct to EUR with no fee (7.5 kunas for 1 euro). So I am playing in euros but converting USD to KN to EUR if that makes any sense.
