hi

i would like to know what the RTP for the main game of the Angry Birds BTD slot is, if possible?

the reason i want to know is that the side-game has a player edge, see below:

------
game summary:

side-game type: 'Double Up' Feature (upto 5 'double ups')

what you bet on: 'you are betting that you will hit a HIGHER card than the original card received' (this is similar to hi-low side-bets, except without the low option)

game outcome(s):
you lose, if the next card is lower than the original card
you win, if the next card is higher than the original card
you push, if the original card is the same as the next card chosen/drawn

card values: 2 (lowest) to Ace (highest normal card) and Joker (absolute highest card/ trumps every other card)

decks: single standard deck with 1 joker (53 cards)

reason why side-game has a player edge: 'because, you have the option of playing or NOT playing the side-game AFTER YOU HAVE SEEN THE ORIGINAL CARD in the said side-game', see examples below:

example 1: your original card is a 2 (you can't lose), if this occurs then you SHOULD CONTINUE PLAYING the side bet, as it has a player edge

example 2: your original card is a 10, if this occurs then you you should STOP PLAYING the side bet, and go back to the main game, as it has a negative player edge
------
'Weighted average' player edge: 25.40% (or higher), see proof below

proof:

original card EV's (figures are all stated as %'s and are correct to 2 decimal places)

2: 94.23
3: 78.85
4: 63.46
5: 48.08
6: 32.69
7: 17.31
8: 1.92
9 to Joker are all negative values, so did not bother writing them in

percentage of hands that are positive EV: about 52.83%

average expected value of hands that will be played: 48.07...%

'percentage of hands with positive EV' X 'average expected value of those hands': about 25.40%***

*** this edge figure is only correct for the first round of betting, but the real average player edge would be higher than this, because of the chances of going from 1 through to 5 rounds of betting, therefore the 'weighted average' player edge: is 25.40% (or more)
-------
Strategy: for round 1 to 5, (if deck is 're-shuffled'^^^ after every round) below:

always play an original card 2 to 8

decline to play an original card 9 through Joker

^^^if the game is NOT re-shuffled then use the above strategy for round 1 only, (not sure what the strategies would be for rounds 2 or higher, but i have a spreadsheet that can tell me this on a 'case by case' basis)

lastly could someone tell me if they found this game anywhere else, thanks
