Mixed team: three different models share one bankroll.
Action timeline
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no count edge, so the house has a small advantage and the minimum bet preserves the shared bankroll.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no count data; betting minimum preserves bankroll until we see cards.
Model's stated reason
Basic strategy calls for splitting pairs of 2s against a dealer 7 upcard since it improves expected value versus hitting a hard 4.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 vs dealer 7 is a standard hit in basic strategy since dealer shows strong upcard and 12 has low bust risk from small cards.
Model's stated reason
Hard 16 vs a dealer 7 is a standard hit in basic strategy since standing loses too often and doubling isn't available.
Model's stated reason
True count is only about +1 with nearly six decks left, so the edge is too small to raise above the minimum.
Model's stated reason
Fresh shoe with no clear count edge; team agreed to start small at 5 and scale only if TC reaches +2.
Model's stated reason
True count is only about +1 per teammate reports, not enough edge to raise bet size, staying aligned with team plan of minimum bets.
