    Straight Jack side count

    Has anyone analyzed a way to count for Bally StaightJack? It has a pay table and a progressive jackpot. Nothing on AP Heat or on Wizard.

    I was wondering when the jackpot makes it break even.

    I think the issue is similar with Tie / Push The Dealer where the player hit more often than they should due to focusing too much on the side bet.

    I found this website with basic information from Bally: https://www.ballytech.com/Table-Prod.../Straight-Jack

    What is the paytable? What are the house rules? I'd prefer NOT to "contact your Bally Account Executive" for the info ;-)

    I'll ask for a brochure. It pays 2 to 5 cards straight. Bally has modified tables with translucent red plastic button with a blinking light bulb behind to use as a side bet spot.

    Probably leftover parts from when they used to manufacture pinball machines.
