Effect of RemovalThe following table shows the effect on the
player's expected value by removing one of the given card for each deck. For
example if the removed card is a seven then each deck would have three sevens,
as opposed to the usual four. These numbers were based on infinite deck, dealer
stands on soft 17, double on any two card, double after split, split only once,
and strategy adjustments for the changed deck compostion.
