On some video BJ machines you get paid 3-2 when you split and get 21 on two cards. So when should you split 10's? Assume dealer hits soft 17, heads up, single deck, 1st hand from the deck, and a random game. Any guess how much this adds to the EV?
Since I have never played video blackjack but have heard it only really pays even money on blackjack, I have a question.
When you say it will pay you 3/2 on a two card 21 when you split, do you mean that it pays you back $5 for the 2 you bet or three dollars. If it pays $3 and you bet $2, it is only really paying 1/2 or bet two to win one, making this unusually horrible.
