Action timeline

Model's stated reason

Basic strategy for 7,7 against a dealer ten is to stand, since splitting into two hands that each start on 7 against a ten is worse than keeping 14. Hitting is also worse than standing here, and the dealer has already peeked and has no blackjack.

Model's stated reason

Hard 11 against a dealer 10 is a close call in a 6-deck game where the dealer stands on soft 17. Basic strategy says to double, but hitting is the more conservative play. I'm choosing hit to stay in line with the chosen plan, though double has slightly higher expected value.

Model's stated reason

Hard 19 against a dealer 10 is a clear stand, since hitting risks busting with most cards and the dealer has no peeked blackjack.

Model's stated reason

Soft 18 against a dealer 4 is a standard double in basic strategy, and doubling is legal on any first two cards. Dealer stands on all 17s, but the 4 is still a weak upcard, so doubling has the best expected value.

Model's stated reason

Hard 13 against a dealer 10 is a basic strategy hit, since standing loses more often than hitting in the long run. Doubling is not favorable here.

Model's stated reason

Hard 17 against a dealer 2 is a standard stand, since hitting risks busting and doubling has negative expected value.

Model's stated reason

Hard 13 against a dealer 9 is basic strategy to hit, since standing loses more often than hitting and doubling isn't favorable.

Model's stated reason

Hard 19 against a dealer 9 is a clear stand; hitting risks busting with little chance of improving.

Model's stated reason

Soft 17 against a dealer ten is a hit in basic strategy, since standing on 17 loses more often than hitting and doubling is not favorable against a ten. Chat is off, so the table message is empty.

Model's stated reason

Soft 18 against a dealer 10 is a hit in basic strategy, since standing on 18 loses more often than the soft hand risks by drawing, and a hit can't bust a soft hand.

Model's stated reason

Hard 18 (6+A+A+10) against a dealer Queen: standing is correct, since hitting risks busting and 18 beats a dealer who ends on 17 or busts. Chat is off, so the message is empty.

Model's stated reason

Hard 12 against a dealer 7 is a basic strategy hit. Standing on 12 vs 7 is worse, and doubling is not recommended.

Model's stated reason

Hard 16 against a dealer 7 is a hit by basic strategy, since the dealer likely has 17 and standing loses more often than hitting.

Model's stated reason

Hard 20 (J+2+4+4) against a dealer 7 is a strong hand; hitting would almost certainly bust or worsen it, so standing is correct.

Model's stated reason

Hard 19 against a dealer 9 is a clear stand; hitting risks busting and doubling has negative expected value.

Model's stated reason

Hard 13 against a dealer 9 is a basic strategy hit; standing is only correct against dealer 2-6, and doubling is not favorable with 13.

Model's stated reason

Hard 6 against a dealer 7 is best played by hitting, since doubling on 6 is not favorable by basic strategy and standing is too weak.

Model's stated reason

Hard 15 against a dealer 7 is a hit under basic strategy, since the dealer is likely to make a hand of 17 or better and standing loses more often than hitting.

Model's stated reason

Hard 8 against a dealer 10 is a basic strategy hit; doubling is not favorable against a ten, and standing on 8 is too weak.

Model's stated reason

Hard 13 against a dealer 10 is a losing stand, and basic strategy says to hit. The dealer has already peeked for blackjack, so hitting is the better play.

Model's stated reason

Hard 20 against a dealer 10 is a strong hand, so standing is clearly correct; hitting would almost certainly bust or worsen the hand.

Model's stated reason

Hard 10 against a dealer 6 is a strong doubling spot under basic strategy, since the dealer is likely to bust and a ten-value card gives me 20.

Model's stated reason

Hard 10 against a dealer 7 is a standard double, since the chance of landing a strong total is high and the dealer is likely to finish with a made hand.

Model's stated reason

Hard 20 against a dealer ten is a strong hand; standing is correct, and splitting tens is worse in expectation.

Model's stated reason

Hard 7 against a dealer 5 is too weak to double under basic strategy, since doubling on hard 7 is not recommended, so hitting is the standard play.

Model's stated reason

Hard 17 against a dealer 5 is a clear stand, since the dealer is likely to bust and hitting risks busting with a strong total.

Model's stated reason

Hard 15 against a dealer 4 is a standard stand, since the dealer busts often with a weak upcard and hitting risks busting the player.

Model's stated reason

Basic strategy for 3,3 against a dealer 8 is to hit, since splitting 3s only applies against dealer 4-7 (with DAS, 2-7). Against an 8, hitting is better than splitting.

Model's stated reason

Hard 16 against a dealer 8 is a hit under basic strategy: the dealer's chance of making 17 or better is high enough that standing is worse than taking a card.

Model's stated reason

Hard 17 (3+3+K+A) against a dealer 8 should stand; hitting risks busting with little chance to improve enough to beat the dealer.
