Hello,

I'm Jorge Santos and Product Manager in a company CIRSA Casinos in Colombia, we have 19 tables Casinos with small sizes with a 216 total table games.

Thinking of new ideas for Black Jack what we came up.

We distributed the game normally and once the player sees his first two cards and the dealer's letter decided to ask if you want a new game, or two new cards, for it must bet the same amount as the original bet.

The problem is that not know calculate the mathematical advantage of the game.

Greetings and thanks.

Preguntas:

a) Is the player allowed to choose:
i) a new game (2 new cards vs. 1 new dealer card)
ii) just a new hand (2 new cards vs. the old dealer card)
and for this must pay 1 bet?

b) If they win the new hand, do they win 1 or 2 units?

This is how I imagine the game:

Player places initial wager.
Player gets dealt two cards and the dealer one up card (and one down card?).
The player can place a new wager, equal to the initial wager, in order to receive two new cards. The player's initial cards are placed in the discard tray.
The dealer checks for blackjack or offers insurance (if available).
The player plays out the new hand and is paid based on a 2 unit wager.

Please let me know if this is correct.

Also, if the player receives a blackjack on the second set of cards, is it paid as a blackjack, or is it treated like a multi card 21?
How much does a blackjack pay?
How many decks?
Have you changed any rules to compensate for the potential advantage?
I heart Crystal Math.

i)yes, two new cards, the dealer gets the initial card

Hi CrystalMatch,

The game is exactly as you imagine. Black Jack with the first card is paid 3-2 with the second card is paid 1-1. is played with 6 decks
I have not changed rules to offset the advantage so I want to know how is the mathematical advantage.
