Hello, this is a new side bet I saw.

The dealer must have a 2-7 showing for your bonus to qualify. Then your first 2 cards dealt determine the payoff.

If you, the player has
18 pays 2:1
9 10 or 11 pays 5:1
Bj pays 10:1
Aj spades pays 60:1


house edge please?

Runlikegod777,

How many decks?

Does Ace, 7 win the 18 bet?

Does Ace, 8 win the 9 bet?

Does Ace, 9 win the 10 bet?

How many decks?

Your pay table does not include wins for player totals of 19 or 20: is that correct?

Runlikegod777,

I get a house edge of 30.73%... OUCH!

Are you sure that totals of 19 and 20 are NOT winners?

Runlikegod777,

That's more like it... now the house edge is 7.73%.

The player gets a 19 or 20 vs. the dealer's 2-7 about 7.7% of the time.
