      I feel like he split the 20 just to teach about the split, which is the only excusable reason to do that. If the casino only gives 1 card after the split it's definitely never worth it. Also, you should hit 12 against dealer 2 (12) little bonus rule for anyone reading the 4th reply to a youtube comment.
