It seems to be the hot new thing this year.
Is there any breakdown as to the percentages of the Original Bet W/L/T versus the Total Bet W/L/T (Includes Free Bets)?

Some people need to reimagine their thinking.

The free bet does seem to be big right now. Like a matchplay it is only worth just under 50% of face value. I think even the 'average joe' has now realized this about matchplay coupons, but probably hasn't caught on that a $500 free bet is only worth just under $250.
Wouldn't the w/l/t breakdown be the same as playing with your own money? About 43% win, 48% loss, 9% tie, if you are playing proper strategy, depending on exact rules?

Gee, even I understood that. Great simple explanation, races.

Ok, my bad. I think we are talking about different things. Apparently the reference in this thread was to a new game??? My reference was to free wager promotions that many casino's are mailing out.

Normally I agree, but there are changes to basic strategy, like Hit 12 v. 4 and Hit 13 v. 2, and Soft Doubling (not entitled to Free-Bet) is different from basic. Thats why the ?

When I posted my response, I had yet to see basic strategy for the game and only made a guess. After looking at it I can see your point. Also not only do you hit those hands, you don't double on some soft hands giving you a better opportunity to get closer to 21. I would still like to see final numbers.
