A UK casino is running a 5 week promotion for the longest Banker streak (when you have the button and make a valid bet) that the top three Banker streaks are each paid £8888. Prizes are shared if there are multiple players on the same streak count.

So two English players (I mention their ethnicity as 99% of players are Asian), one flats bets the Player side the other flat bets the Banker side. How long they played for is unknown. Finally strike a Banker 12 streak, divided £8888 each. £4444 each for less than a weeks work, with free tea and coffee supplied.

LMAO. Is that the casino group run by a bunch of Rank amateurs?
How can I get to hear about these silly promo's? I visit, I read the flyers, I watch facebook and twitter?

So presumably the two friends are flat betting the minimum. If it's a £10 minimum, they break even on player wins and ties, and lose 50p in commission on every banker win that comes along. Assuming one hand a minute (is this mini-bac or regular bac?), they're spending an average of £13.75 an hour. For a possible £8,888, that's a great price.

Even with this promotion going on, they are the only two players at the table? How many tables are running?

Why would you want them on the table simultaneously? They need to each be playing 12 hour shifts always betting banker. They win 2 of the 3 prizes....

Put both of them on the table for 12 hours, what happens when it's nap time and a 15 streak occurs in their absence? Should they even continue playing?

Not Rank the other major outfit.

I came across this promo by just popping in, they don't advertise it outside of the casino itself.

Deucekies the table min is £5, so 25p for every banker win. Early mornings are best, usually only 1 table left open during these hours and less competition. You could spend a long time at the tables.

All this only bet the Banker side due to the 0.18% math difference is applicable only in the long term which even regular players won't experience. The Player side can dominate for many shoes, all evening in some venues. Players could be there for days, this is a one off promo, top three banker streaks for the given week, otherwise it is longest banker streak for the month. Toilet break during shuffle, eat at the table, sleep during the evening when there is a lot of competition, no need to nap, they supply you with coffee.
