dealers 2 or 3, players 2 or 3
I always take a hit on my 12 against the dealers 2. What are the correct plays on 2's and 3's, against the dealers 2's and 3's. Thanks

If you are playing bs you should hit. When playing KO for example and the count is at or above the pivot, you should stand. I would guess there is a similar point using Hi/Lo and other counting systems when you would stand.
Basic strategy calls for you to hit your 12 against dealers 2 or 3.
If you're counting, the following indices apply for multiple deck,
using Hi Lo Count.
12 vs 2 +3
12 vs 3 +2
13 vs 2 -1
13 vs 3 -2
A complete set of the I 18 indices can be found at the link below.
Other useful indices in addition to the I 18 are:
8 vs 6 +2
A8 vs 6 +1
A8 vs 5 +1
8 vs 5 +4
An outcome treats all tens as the same. I think it's correct, but,
if someone else has this info I'd appreciate the correction.
