I just posted a page on the Monkey 6 baccarat side bet. It wins if there are six cards between both hands, the Player's third card is NOT a face card and the Banker's third card is.

As always, I welcome all feedback.

The question is would you bet the Monkey 6 if playing baccarat anyway?

Using infinite deck there are:

25 + 16 *5 = 105 ways for player to be initially dealt 0 - 5

25 * 10 + 16 (10 + 10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2) = 906 ways for banker to be dealt 0 - 6 then take a third card when player’s third was not a monkey

3 ways for banker to get a monkey as third card

So:

(105 * 906 * 3) / 13^6 = 0.059126 = p = probability of winning.

1 - 13p = 0.23136 house edge.
It’s all about making that GTA
