Is there anything on the Internet where I can find out what the EV's are for basic strategy decisions?

For example, the EV's for either hitting, standing, or doubling down on a hard 11 versus a dealer's six. I want one for every possible scenario based on certain rules.

What I am trying to show my students (I tutor people on how to be smart, casual gamblers) is the importance of analyzing win-win and lose-lose situations. My students usually do not have strong math knowledge, but I have a way of taking complicated (not by our standards) math knowledge and relating it to the average Joe.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg

Read through the blackjack books at your library.

This might be good for people to see. It's hard telling braindead people why you should always split 8's against any dealer upcard. Hard for them to picture why 2 separate hands with an 8 is better than a hard 16 rofl.
