Blackjack probabilities
 
Could anyone tell me where I could find a table which lists the probability of beating the dealer given any starting hand vs any dealer upcard? No splitting, doubling or anything, just the basic probability of beating the dealer's total assuming you play correct basic strategy and the dealer plays to the normal rules for hitting/standing.

Any help much appreciated.

Re: Blackjack probabilities
 
Stanford Wong's Professional Blackjack has EV'S for all starting cards for all actions for 1 deck and for 6 decks This is not win probability, but win probability can be calculated from it.

Note: If you don't double or split when appropriate, you are not playing correct basic stratgy and are giving up quite a bit of EV.

Also, there are two common variations of the dealer's "normal rules" for hitting and standing. Dealer hits all hands > 16 and stands on all hands >= 17 (commonly abreviated as S17) , and dealer hits all hands < 16 and all soft 17's and stands on all hard 17's and all hands > 17 (H17). The S17 version has a lower house advantage.
