Following is the Spanish 21 basic strategy when the dealer hits a soft 17.
This strategy is based on a combinatorial analysis and is verified by an
infinite deck model in Excel. In some hands the strategy is different than
the one by Lenny Frome which appears in Armada Strategies for Spanish
21 by Frank Scoblete and Secrects of the New Casino Games by
Martin Jensen. Unfortunatly Lenny has passed away and I can not challenge
him on his strategy. However I stand firmly behind my strategy and believe
all others to be in error.
