Are my esteemed colleagues missing your point?
dx2,
I think what you're asking is this:
If we have a 6D shoe, and after the first deck is played we've seen 20 X's, 3 9's, 2 8's, 4 7's, 5 6's, 8 5's, 2 4's, 1 3's, 5 2's, and 2 Aces, what would NOW be the correct Basic Strategy to play? In other words, what's the correct B.S. for a (now) 5D shoe containing 76 X's, 21 9's, 22 8's, 20 7's, 19 6's, 16 5's, 22 4's, 23 3's, 19 2's, and 22 Aces, and what is the new EV? Then, if on the next round we see 3 X's and an Ace (we get BJ vs. the dealer's 20), what's the NEW correct B.S. for a 256-card pack containing 73 X's, 21 9's, 22 8's, 20 7's, 19 6's, 16 5's, 22 4's, 23 3's, 19 2's, and 21 Aces, and what is the new EV?
Is that what you're trying to find?
If so, the answer can indeed be calculated. This is the "perfect play" problem, and is in fact how BJ computers (now illegal to use in casinos) played the game. Clearly, software has been written that will perform these calculations. I seem to recall SOMEONE posting a link to a program that would do these calculations for any specified subset of cards, but I cannot find the post at the moment. Perhaps someone else recalls the post.
Hope this helps!
