Model's stated reason
Hard 8 vs dealer 4 is a basic-strategy hit; doubling is only correct for 9-11 here, and standing would leave a very weak total against a likely dealer make.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 against a dealer 4 is a stand per basic strategy; only 2 or 3 upcards warrant hitting, and the dealer's 4 gives high bust probability.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 against a dealer 10 is a losing total that stands only ~34% of the time; basic strategy calls for hitting since drawing improves expected value despite bust risk.
Model's stated reason
Hard 13 against a dealer 10 is a clear hit per basic strategy; standing loses to any dealer draw of 8+ while hitting risks only busting on 10-value cards.
Model's stated reason
Hard 19 against a dealer 10 is a strong standing hand; hitting risks busting for negligible gain.
Model's stated reason
Hard 18 is a made hand; standing against a dealer 9 is the correct basic strategy play, as hitting risks busting a likely-winning total.
Model's stated reason
Hard 19 is a strong made hand; standing against a dealer 5 is clearly optimal, as doubling risks a weak total and hitting can only hurt.
Model's stated reason
Soft 15 against a dealer ace is a clear hit per basic strategy; standing leaves almost no winning chance, and doubling is too risky against an ace.
Model's stated reason
Soft 18 against a dealer ace is a losing standing position; basic strategy for S17 says hit soft 18 vs A, since standing wins only ~11% while drawing improves expected value.
Model's stated reason
Hard 18 vs an ace is a standing hand in basic strategy; hitting risks busting a made hand with little gain.
Model's stated reason
Hard 15 against a dealer 5 is a standing situation in basic strategy; the dealer is likely to bust, and hitting risks busting with 16+ draw.
Model's stated reason
3,3 vs dealer 10: basic strategy is to hit (splitting 3s vs 10 is unfavorable).
Model's stated reason
Hard 15 vs dealer 10 is a losing standing position; basic strategy says hit.
Model's stated reason
Soft 13 vs dealer 10 is a clear hit; doubling is too weak here.
Model's stated reason
Soft 18 vs dealer 10 is a losing standing position; basic strategy says hit to try for 19-21, with the ace still able to save a bad draw.
Model's stated reason
Soft 19 vs dealer 10 is a stand per basic strategy; hitting only improves marginally and risks little gain.
Model's stated reason
Hard 14 against a dealer 10 is a losing standing position; basic strategy says hit, taking one card and standing on 18 or more.
Model's stated reason
Soft 13 vs dealer 10 is a clear hit; soft totals can't bust with one card and standing loses far more often.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 vs dealer 10 is a hit per basic strategy; standing loses more often.
Model's stated reason
Hard 19 is a strong hand; standing is clearly optimal against a dealer ten.
Model's stated reason
Hard 9 against a dealer 10 is a clear hit; doubling is only correct against dealer 3-6, and standing loses to the dealer's likely strong draw.
Model's stated reason
Hard 16 vs dealer 10 is a standard hit; standing loses more often than drawing.
Model's stated reason
Hard 19 is a strong made hand; standing wins against a dealer 10 unless the dealer draws to 20 or 21, and hitting risks near-certain bust.
Model's stated reason
Hard 8 vs dealer 2 is a hit per basic strategy; doubling is too weak against a 2.
Model's stated reason
Soft 19 vs dealer 2 is a clear stand per basic strategy; hitting risks turning a strong total into a bust with little gain.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 vs dealer 9 is a losing hand either way; basic strategy says hit since standing wins only ~29% while hitting improves expected value.
Model's stated reason
Hard 20 is a near-certain winner; hitting risks an almost certain bust with no upside.
Model's stated reason
Hard 19 against a dealer 9 is a strong standing hand; hitting risks busting for negligible gain.
Model's stated reason
Hard 20 versus a dealer King is a near-lock; standing maximizes expected value, while doubling or splitting tens would only risk a dominant hand.
Model's stated reason
12 against a dealer 10 is a stiff total; basic strategy says hit (splitting 6s is only correct against dealer 2-6).
Model's stated reason
Hard 14 vs dealer 6 is a basic-strategy stand: the dealer's 6 upcard busts frequently, so risking a bust on a hit is worse than letting the dealer play out.
Model's stated reason
Hard 5 vs dealer 7 is a clear basic-strategy hit; no bust risk and doubling a hard 5 vs 7 has negative equity.
Model's stated reason
Hard 11 against a dealer 7 is a strong hitting (or doubling) spot; since double is unavailable, hitting is correct and cannot bust with one card.
Model's stated reason
Hard 15 against a dealer 7 is a stand per basic strategy; the dealer's break risk with a 7 up outweighs the bust risk of hitting 15.
Model's stated reason
Hard 20 against a dealer 9 is a strong standing hand; hitting or doubling risks a near-certain win for negligible gain.
