6.5:1 Blackjack
Been Playing this game recently that pays 6.5 to 1 on any BlackJack but only pays you half on your original bet on any win. How much am i giving up on that?
DD 9,10.11
Split only once for a total of two hands
No DAS
Player wins on 6 card charlie
Dealer Stands on 17 or on 6 cards
Single Deck shuffles every hand
Can you help me determine my edge ?
I have a feeling that the strategies (and there will be at least 2) are somewhat different from standard.
I'm sure the casino's marketing will call it what they like, but it seems aesthetically displeasing to tag it with "blackjack" instead of "a novel 21 based carnival game".
When the count is high the profit should be fantastic. Add in wonging out or using someone to play low until the count is high.

Single deck shuffle after every hand.
I never advocate any gamblers fallacy but I've been playing it for a while and then i found this /forum/gambling/blackjack/3064-black-gold-21/
which reinforced my suspicion just a bit the gentleman describes another game but the manual describes mine . Left me with more questions than answers. Please help

I think there is not much in it, maybe a small player edge of about 1% ( but I only did it very rough, so could be "way off")
Also, do you only get paid 1 to 2 on any double as well ? ( I assumed yes, but doesn't hurt to ask).

Also, on splits, do wins on each hand pay 1 to 2. Or is it just the original bet that gets paid 1 to 2?

So your double down extra bet is also only 1:2?
Does 21 from splitting aces pay 6.5:1?

What happens on a blackjack tie?
Because, I get a small house edge if "blackjack ties are a push" (using very rough figures).

Ahhh, I see.
Shuffle tracking?
I don't count cards so just throwing it out there.

Blackjack ties are a push yes
