<<I have 16 in my hands and the dealer has a 9. Technical analysis says that I should draw. I always draw as the book says. My wife always stays. She asks me why after all these years I keep on drawing and get busted. I should follow her style but the book says....>>

Take "always split Eights"

When you split you are doubling your bet on two poor bases. You are very likely to end up with both hands in the teens, with twice as much money on the line The house loves that one.
