Pot of Gold
There has been an interesting developed. My local store is offering Pot of Gold Freebet blackjack. It is a side bet; and is paid as the following:
1 free bet(double or split) pays 3 to 1
2 free bets 6 to 1
3 free bets 12 to 1
5 free bets and up is 100 to 1
Side bet is minimum $5 up to $50 and rules are:
�Six decks
�Dealer hits soft 17's
�Blackjacks pay 3 to 2
�Double after split allowed
�Double on two cards only
�Re-split pairs up to four hands, including aces
�No surrender
1."Free Doubles" on hard totals of two-card total of 9, 10, or 11. Regular doubles are still allowed on all other two-card hands. With a "free double," the player's original wager is matched with a "free bet" button and the player receives one additional card. At the end of the hand:
�If the dealer wins, the player loses his original wager only.
�If the hand results in a push, the player gets back his original wager only.
�Otherwise, if the player wins, the player gets back his original wager plus winnings equal to double that wager.
2."Free Splits" on all pairs except 10's. With a "free split," the player's two cards are divided into two one-card hands. The player's original wager is placed with the first hand and a "free bet" button is placed with the second hand. The player plays out each hand one at a time and is entitled to a "free double" or "free split" on both hands. For winning hands, each "free bet" button is replaced with real chips equaling the original wager. On hands resulting in a player loss or push, the dealer takes back the "free bet" button.
3.Dealer pushes on 22. If the player has 21 or less and the dealer busts with 22, then the player's wager is a push
Anyone with a simulator that can crunch the numbers on this?
