In Three Card Poker, If you knew what SUIT the cards were before they were turned over, how would it affect the house edge?
How about other games?
I'm having a debate with a friend regarding the game. Any input is appreciated, since I know very little about this casino game.

Sorry I don't have any info to help with the calculations, but this will bump the thread, and maybe someone will be able to assist.
I wanted to link to a card game called Indiscretion that has the suits on the backs of the cards, since the subject matter fit.

Since you (or the dealer) are dealt a flush 1 in 19.3 hands, you would fold many hands that you would otherwise have raised. I would also guess, and someone with better math skills than me could prove, that you 'might' raise all hands if you know the dealer does not have a flush. It may be just enough to be a 'tipping point'. I would say it would definitely be a player advantage game, but not by that much.

I think the point here is, what percentage of hands you raise that dont beat a flush, Q/6/4 up to Ace high and lesser flushes. IF you knew the dealer was suited you would be able to fold these hands rather than lose two units, I would guess its quite a high percentage and would be enough to beat the current edge.
