Blackjack Strategy 

Are you willing to split it?

In the basic strategy of Blackjack, split is recommended.

But some players stand on the pair as hand 16, not split it.

Since Dealer's 2 is slightly dangerous, I understand why they avoid splitting it.
Are there any differences of the results of the two choices?

I conducted a Blackjack experiment to calculate the winning percentages for both.

In this video, there are 20 scenes from all.
The playback time is about 15 min.

Results of the experiment

The following two graphs show the results based on the 100 data.

Isn't it the result as we expected?

This result is not bad.

It also means the result of standing on 16 vs D's 2.

The results except for a tie

 are as follows:

Winning Percentages

Split 45%    Stay 44%    

The chips fluctuation

Split -19 chips    Stay -12 chips

(Bet amount: 1 chip every time) 

To sum up, it's difficult to say clearly which choice is better to win.
After all, all we have to do may be to guess the next card number.

One more graph.

The 3-unit win means, for example, one is a double down hand and the other is a normal hand.
Splitting 8s and taking a card of 2 or 3, we will be able to double down, following the BS.

Mentioning more about the graph above, the player succeeded in 3-unit winning 11 out of 23 times actually.
In addition, he won fourfold 2 out of 11 times.
But no fourfold defeats luckily.

From this result, I don't recommend we split 8s against D's 2.

That's all.

Good luck for your 8's splitting.
Wish for 4-unit winning.
Bye.
