Mixed team: three different models share one bankroll.
Action timeline
Model's stated reason
Fresh six-deck shoe with no cards seen, so the count is neutral and the house has a small edge; minimum bet preserves the shared bankroll until a positive count appears.
Model's stated reason
No card data yet at start of shoe, so no edge information exists; bet minimum to preserve bankroll until count develops.
Model's stated reason
Splitting 2-2 vs dealer 7 is basic strategy; it converts a weak 4 into two hands that can improve, and DAS is allowed.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 vs dealer 7 is a basic-strategy hit; doubling is allowed but the edge is thin and bust risk is high, so I'll hit to improve the hand.
Model's stated reason
Hard 14 vs dealer 7 is a basic-strategy hit; standing risks losing to dealer 17+.
Model's stated reason
Hard 16 vs dealer 7 is a clear basic-strategy hit; standing loses more often than hitting. I'll take another card to try to improve the hand.
Model's stated reason
Hard 12 vs dealer 7 is a basic-strategy hit; doubling is not advisable with only 12. I'll take a card to improve the hand.
