Default 5 bets of 2 dollarsvs. one bet of 10 dollars

Last night I was working on clearing my bet365 sign up bonus and used the black jack table allowing up to 5 bets so that i could clear it faster. Is my ROR decreased if i do five bets of 2 dollars vs. one bet of 10 dollars?

That will lower your variance. That is, you will lose less and win less on average.

And I've found that if you play one hand things move a lot faster and sometimes the software seems faster too.

I was actually wondering if this is indeed faster.

Probably the smarter bet is to play $3-4 single hand. Your variance is lower and you definitely clear it much faster.

Multi-hand seems ridiculous to me. You still have to play each of those hands but you've now made them interdependent, increasing your variance.

Increasing variance isn't necessarily a bad thing.

For minimizing variance, multihand doesn't make sense.

One of the smartest blackjack ideas I have seen in print. It is so tempting to do crazy bets with multihand or $10 bets for blackjack but $3-$4 a hand is much better n' less insane [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
