What game would you hit?

[Jack_Black]

Alright guys, I finished my blackjack road trip and found me some good games spread out all over the country. So I have to decide which games to milk for a bit, and which state to stay in. but which game offers the best "bang for your buck?" I'm leaning towards 3:2 single deck because the small advantage is almost always there. an average 2% advantage 30% of the time.

3:2 SD Ro6 heads up $25-$100 spread

King's bounty Side bet 6D (similar to lucky ladies) $25 max bet

Shuffle track 6D R&R no plugs. 2x $50 max bet

I like King's Bounty - only a 24% House Edge!

Who needs the 3:2 payout on single deck anyway?

 

[Cardcounter]

me! I need the 3/2 on single deck!

Only some of the time.

Only some of the time.

Only most of the time.

Only most of the time.

So tell me then, how much advantage does one have when the HE erases? (rhetorical)

With those kinds of bets it's not a question of whether they go positive, they sure do, it's just how much money you can get out of it with a $25 max.

Your best game is probably the SD.

If you can shuffle track perfectly, then that's the best game to play since you'll always have an advantage and it's almost impossible to detect so you'll get no heat. If you can cut out a negative slug every shoe, then you'll always be playing at an advantage.

Absolutely not so.

If you were at the last Bash you would have seen this is not so. A certain group from a certain Northern location were shuffle tracking at an Indian Casino and after they smoked around $16,000 out of one shoe the casino flat bet them all.

The casino probably didn't even know what they were doing, they just didn't like it.

I think the problem I'm having is quantifying the edge from shuffle tracking vs the SD game.

SD game: about 2-7% advantage 30% of the time.
side bet: about 5-35% advantage 3% of the time.
shuffle tracking R&R: ???

can anyone take a stab at it?

Is the SD game DOA or D9/10?

 

[Jack_Black]

There is both available. but I think I found the answer to my own question. ST can add about 35 SCORE to your shoe game whereas some SD games can already have 280 SCORE.
