I recently returned from Mexico City. At the Casino Life casino in the Zona Rosa section I spotted the Doble Duck side bet in baccarat. I just analyzed it and get a 99.39% house edge.

I'm pretty sure this is the worst side bet I have ever seen.

For my analysis, please see my new page on Doble Duck.

The question for the poll is would you bet on the Doble Duck?

In the Introduction you state the second part of the payout table to be:

"Both Player or Banker have 6-6-6 — Pays 8 to 1"

I suggest changing this to:

"Either Player or Banker have 6-6-6 — Pays 8 to 1"

I admit to playing 99% house edge games for the novelty.
This almost makes those machines seem loose.

May the cards fall in your favor.
