Pair 'Em Up is a side bet I just saw by Wager2Go software. It pays if the player's initial two cards in blackjack form a pair. There is a big pay table, with the win depending on the rank of the pair and whether it is suited. I think the longest pay table I've ever seen for a side bet.
Please have a look at my new page. As always, I welcome your comments.
The question for the poll is would you play Pair 'Em Up?

I wouldn't play it based on that horrid HE. And as a casino I wouldn't install it with that crazy paytable.
They're saying that the Camp Fire, as well as numerous other large fires in the past couple years, were started by downed or malfunctioning power lines owned by private power companies operating in CA. There was, at least, a corresponding line trouble report about 15 minutes before the fire was reported, in thevery area of initial ignition. PG&E for this one, and others, and other energy companies for others. I suspect if that's true, it's not the last we'll hear about it.

If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

That sounds like an ad for "No on 3" here in Nevada.

An online sidebet, not being a jackpot or progressive, with a 21% House Edge seems a little steep.
btw simply put the payouts are
(i) Unisuited pairs pay according to the Blackjack value (e.g. pair of 2s pays 2/1) except a Pair of Aces pays 20/1.
(ii) Suited pairs play double.
