I know I saw a discussion about the house edge on this game somewhere but I've been unable to find it again.

Your first two cards and dealer up card make your 3-card hand.

Winning 3-Card Hands: Payoff is 9-to-1.
Flush
Straight
Three of a Kind
Straight Flush
Note 3-2-Ace sequence wins

Blackjack
Six deck shoe.
Double Down on first two cards.
Split up to three times.
Double Down after a split.
Minimum bet on BlackJack at this casino is usually 3, 5 or 10.
I don't know the minimum bet on the 3 card poker option.

I'm not quite sure what the Dealer's 3 card hand is.

there is no dealer 3 card hand. It's more like playing the pair plus bet in 3 card...except that everything pays 9:1.

The HA is high on the 3 card side bet, but if you want more excitement it can be a fun way to add variance to your BJ session.

The side bet is called 21+3. The only thread I can find is here. The Wiz has the side bet in his bj appx 8. The house edge is 3.24%.

Thanks for your help. I knew I had seen a prior discussion of it somewhere but couldn't find it.
I think at 3.24 percent house edge, I'll not bother with it. I have enough trouble with just the 21 part so I'll let that +3 part be.
