New match the dealer game at my casino(odds in my favor??)

[monkeywhoshAAppy]

My local casino just opened a new blackjack game called mega match and from doing quick math with my friends, we think the casino is giving us the odds in our favor. I was hoping for help to see where we really stand. So this is how it works..
4 to 1 on either card matching the dealers top card

11 to 1 on either card matching the dealers top card
and the common deal where if both your cards match the dealer you had those odds added up, but here is where it gets interesting.
example you have 4d 4h and the dealer has up 4h you would get pair 15 to 1

25 to 1 if your 2 cards add up to the dealers top card
example your cards 3 and 2 off suit matches dealers up 5

50 to 1 if your 2 cards are the same suit and add up to the same suited dealer up card.
example your card are 3d+2d and the dealer has the 5d up.
one other note if you cards =10 then the face cards don't count as 10 for the bonus but the 10 does count.

Hope my first post will be a good challenge for you math folks and isn't to long, and thanks for the help.

One last thing we were playing a six deck shoe but they also have a double deck. Is one better than the other?

Here's half your answer [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] :

Wizard of Odds--Match the Dealer side-bet

It should be trivial to figure out the other part. For these side bets, the more decks, the less the house advantage. However, the more decks the worse the bj game will become for you. Also, as the edge on the "totals" bet increases (due to excess small cards to be dealt), the worse your bj bet becomes.

Are you allowed to bet more on the side bet than on the bj bet?

[monkeywhoshAAppy]

no you are not aloud to bet more on the side just =to

side bets are almost always in the player's favor. that's why when i'm only doing regular blackjack hands all the other players ask me why i'm not doing the bonus bets.

well even though no one cared to do help me out with the math me and my buddy finished doing it and with the odds the were giving us the other night we had almost a 140% on our bet(for every 5 dollar bet we approx made 7.20. The casino after one night has already reset there odds and will prolly have to drop them again because we still have an edge.. hahahahhahaha
