| beachboy Member since: Nov 4, 2011 Threads: 4 Posts: 13 | I need help. I don't have the ability to calculate the impact on Margin for the following variation. If even money is paid when the Bank wins with a natural 9, what decrease in house edge is there? I have looked at the variations shown on the Baccarat pages within Wizard of Odds, I have found a table that shows the Probability of 2 card totals: a nine has 0.094903, does this cover both Player & Bank? thanks beachboy |
