Sidebets seem to be all the action and I spotted this one recently on three-card poker.
Simply put it pays if you get a (blackjack) total of 21.
(a) 777 - pays 100 to 1
(b) 678 - pays 21 to 1
(c) other 21s pay 9 to 1
I make the House Edge about 3.84%, personally I'd have made it 25/1.
You can see a reference to it at https://www.hippodromecasino.com/hippodrome-casino/3-card-poker/ , but there's no further details there. Also note that Blackjack tables have two jackpot sidebets. I also popped into a couple of other nearby casinos and they have introduced similar jackpot sidebets.

That's what I get as well - specifically, 848 / 22,100, or 3.8371%
