Another Sim

I appreciate anyone willing to run a couple of simulations for me:
1-8 spread, or higher. I'm not sure what my spread would be, I play mostly 6-deck shoe games.

Game 1: 5 or $10 min

2 deck, 70% pen, h17, double after splitting, re-splitting of aces, only
double on 8 or higher (no soft doubling if total doesn't equal 8 or higher).

Game 2: Same Min

2-deck, 60% pen, S17, dsa, rsa, Double 10 or higher.

Bankroll $10000.

Thanks for your assistance.

Let me know if you need anymore information.

Question about House Rules

psychology1976,

For Game 1 you wrote:

2 deck, 70% pen, h17, double after splitting, re-splitting of aces, only double on 8 or higher (no soft doubling if total doesn't equal 8 or higher).​

If you double A-7 vs. 5, and draw a 3, does that count as 21, or just 11? Some casinos insist that when you double a soft hand, the ace MUST count as 1, as pointed out by Carlson in his Blackjack for Blood.

This would have a small effect on the results.

Furthermore, are you looking for the optimum bet schedule for an 8:1 spread, or simply the optimum spread overall?

where?

Never had that happen at any place I have played. Where'd you see it?

On the other hand, I could tell you about splitting 10's to 6 (yes six) hands in Vegas last week. :) Never seen that before either...
