Abstract: Abstract The analysis in Chap. 7 of Optimal Basic Strategy considered only the round immediately following a shuffle, so that the first card drawn had value j with likelihood d 0(j). But for subsequent rounds, deeper into the pack, the distribution of the remaining cards varies and so do the likelihoods d(j).
