"Switch Blackjack"

[rufus]

Actually, I think it works out to a total list of just about 10,000 situations, and that's before working out heuristics. Assuming an average of around 2 characters per descision, that's 20,000 characters - roughly 6 pages of text. Or about 60 times the size of the standard stratetgy guide.

There are 10 dealer up cards, 44 non-identical pairs of cards, and 23 secondary ones for a total of 10,120 combinations.

After some reflection, it seems like there are a lot of 'universal switch' situations, so a strategy can probably be completely described with on the order of 3 thousand combinations to consider - I'm starting to think it could be fit on an 8.5x11 sheet.
