Basic Strategy for some Simplified Blackjack Variants
<|reference_start|>Basic Strategy for some Simplified Blackjack Variants: In this paper, we calculate a basic strategy for several variations of a simplified version of Blackjack. In short, for these variants the player has only the two options of hit or stand, and they may only make either decision once. Other minor variations including rule modifications, changes in number of decks, alternate payout structures, and different given information about dealer's hand are also considered. An interesting theoretical result regarding the asymptotic behavior of the basic strategy and overall expectation as the number of decks increase is also proved.<|reference_end|>
