What % impact does the following rule have on basic strategy when playing against a 6 deck game:
Dealer MUST draw on soft 17 (not optional - even if the dealer is already winning all bets, he must still draw on his soft 17).
Many thanks
As long as there are games with S17 I wouldn't play a game where the dealer has got to hit soft 17.

I'm sorry, but I would rather play H17 with good penetration that S17 with bad pen. Examples: NYNY and Palms.
Well, I assumed that conditions were identical and the only difference was H17 or S17. But if the pen is better and if that pen can get you more edge then obviously I will choose to play that game if the three parameters/numbers are within my standards. The three MOST important parameters/numbers are: DI, StDev/hour, and the EV.
With the DI being the king number and a major factor in determining in what game I'm getting myself involved

Of course, DI = EV/SD. And when comparing games DI^2 is more convenient.
