Effect of Number of Decks on IBA of Kings Bounty with Altered Paytable

hitthat16,
With the paytable you indicated, I get the following IBA vs. Number of Decks (by CA):
decks |
IBA |
1 |
-34.24% |
2 |
-24.65% |
3 |
-21.48% |
4 |
-19.91% |
5 |
-18.97% |
6 |
-18.34% |
7 |
-17.89% |
8 |
-17.56% |
1000000 |
-15.21% |
As expected, as the number of decks increases, the IBA increases due to the increased likelihood of getting the suited 20's, especially the top payout.
On the other hand, the DD version is quite countable, despite the low initial IBA, because the EoR's are very large.
By the way, I'd avoid the 1D version, as the probability of the top payout is QUITE low
PM me if you'd like more information.
Hope this helps!
