Just wondering if anyone could tell me which is the better option:
1. Blackjack at 50X wager 2. something else (video poker?) at 25X What is more +EV, and if it is #2, is video poker the way to go? Thanks! |

Re: InterCasino Lifetime Bonus question
The highest EV option would be to play Texas Hold'Em Bonus with 25xB wagering. However, this game has a high variance due to the raises, and there is a good chance of strategy errors for typical players.
A summary of EV and 1SD ranges with different games and strategies is below. I doubled the bet size for blackjack and pontoon since wagering is double. This way there is the same number of hands as 25xB wagering options. Blackjack with $2 bets -- $80, -$30 to $190 Blackjack with $10 bets -- $80, -$165 to $325 Video Blackjack with $2 bets -- $80, $5 to $150? Video Blackjack with $10 bets -- $80, -$70 to $230? Pontoon with $2 bets -- $85, -$65 to $230 Pontoon with $10 bets -- $85, -$245 to $415 Texas Hold'Em with $1 bets -- $85, -$5 to $175 Texas Hold'Em with $5 bets -- $85, -$115 to $290 10-hand Double Bonus Standard VP with $1 bets -- $80, -$45 to $200 10-hand Double Bonus Standard VP with $5 bets -- $80, -$195 to $350 100-hand Deuces Wild Bonus VP with $1 bets -- $70, -$35 to $180? 100-hand Deuces Wild Bonus VP with $5 bets -- $70, -$170 to $310? 100-hand JoB Bonus VP with $1 bets -- $65, -$10 to $135? 100-hand JoB Bonus VP with $5 bets -- $65, -$100 to $225? Looking at the numbers above, video blackjack seems like the a good option, which is a surprise to me. I am not certain of the SD range for video blackjack. I know the impact of different player hands on SD, but not different dealer hands or a combination. Texas Hold'em also seems to be a good choice, if you can get the strategy right and trust Crypto Hold'em. So players have reported odd results on this game. It may be just random chance. VP and standard Blackjack seem to have a similar variance and EV. You can decrease the variance to lower than blackjack with some VP game choices. However, doing so reduces EV. |

Watch out, the BJ bonus is 50% now, so you have to deposit $200 for the $100 bonus.
