Unusual plays


77 v. 10 is a stand in this game, not a hit. This is true of all single deck games.

You can enhance your return on this game still further by adopting the “composition dependent” basic strategy alterations - see the S17 composition-dependent exceptions page for details. It would be almost impossible to memorise all the exceptions, so my advice would be to learn the changes for two and three card totals, which amount to 16 changes and which are fairly easy to learn.
