* What can I expect to be my biggest loss?
* What can I expect to win/lose over the year?
=={{header|Go}}==
As the dealer plays automatically, the first thing I did was to write a function which calculates the probabilities of the dealer ending up with various scores according to the Rules. I then checked the resulting table against a similar one on an 'active' online gambling site (which I'd better not link to here) and the results agreed to 6 decimal places.
The task asks us to calculate precise probabilities for all possible continuations after the player stands, hits, doubles or splits but this is impossible if the player 'hits' or 'splits' as we don't know what decisions (s)he will make subsequently. To be reasonably realistic, I decided to anticipate some further strategy tables I've computed for rounds after the initial deal and to assume that further decisions (to hit or stand) will be made in accordance with these tables.
The criterion I've used for doubling down is that this gives a better expected gain (positive or negative) than the other alternatives, taking into account the doubled stake.
Using these assumptions, I've been able to reproduce the 'hard' strategy table exactly and my 'soft' strategy table only differs in one case (A7/A) where I have 'stand' rather than 'hit' though the underlying figures are quite close.
The trickiest part of this task is dealing with the splitting of pairs (I've assumed re-splitting is not allowed though the Rules aren't explicit on this). The criterion used again is that this gives a better expected gain than the alternatives, taking into account the doubled stake.
I decided, given the other uncertainties, to make the simplifying assumption that, after calculating the expected gain for the first split hand as if the second one isn't completed, the expected gain for the second hand will then be exactly the same. This, of course, is not quite right since both hands need to be completed and the probabilities for the second hand will depend on what cards have been drawn for the first hand and the dealer's probabilities will depend on what cards have been drawn for both hands, a very complicated calculation.
However, the 'true' figures are unlikely to be much different from the figures I've actually used which is borne out by my 'pairs' strategy table only differing from the original in 4 cases out of 100 (33/3, 55/A, 77/T and 88/T). Of these, 2 cases have nothing to do with splitting, 1 case (55/A) is extremely marginal and the other 3 are quite close too.
Finally, I've done 10 years of simulations as the basic statistics can vary quite a bit from year to year. However, it will be seen that % loss varies over a narrower range - between about 0.3 and 1.8% for this particular run - which seems reasonable given the casino's edge even after basic strategy is utilized.
