A six deck game has a side bet that pays 11:1 on a pair on your first two cards. I estimate the house edge on this bet to be 15.3% (11 * 7.7% = .847). Is my estimate correct? If not, what is the house edge on this bet and how do you calculate it?


This game has another side bet where if you get three of a kind, using your two cards and the dealer's card or if you get a straight using your two cards and the dealer's card, the payout is 9:1. What is the house edge on this side bet?
