What's the player's EV in this game?

[Joe Schmoe]

2 decks, H17, NDAS, No surrender. Dealt 50% or 1 deck down into the shoe.
Player bets 1 unit when the running count is +1 or less.
Player bets 4 units when the running count is +2 or greater.
Player plays BS for 2 decks with no deviation based on the count.
Using Hi-Lo for counting.

I'm not going to run this one, sorry. Maybe someone else will.

I hope there is something else that makes this worthwhile, but as purely a game you will be counting -- forget it.

Another possible answer

This might be an online casino game, and you want to program a bot to play against it for a year straight.

Been done.

I refer you to the green chip archives at bj21.com

I did a ROUGH sim on it just for kicks.

EV = .0757%

I doubt a more accurate sim would change the result much.
