    Ok i will rephrase question: Re: Sting of the hedgehogs

    oh i didnt realise this.So if the banker edge ids lower this means the banker wins more hands than player right but with the commission the HE is only a small bit lower.Right?

    > The commission is only payed on Banker bets.
    > Players bets get a 1:1 payoff.

    Thanks this is what i need .So 2.29/200 = .01145.
    So a loss of 1.145%.
    So every 1000 I bet i lose 11.45.Which is about 6.45 more thasn with BJ.

    although with hedging i can finish the wagering reqs in 1/20 th of the time thereby increasing win rate and lower variance.

    And also increasing chance of being barred ;-)

    Norm Wattenberger: Point is

    You don't win $95 on one bet and lose $100 on the other every time.

    Yes, the commission more than makes up for the fact the banker wins more often. Same as in Pai Gow Poker. Long ago, you could find a few casinos that had a 3% commission making the Banker bet near even.
