    I would have to double check that, but I don't see any reason why not. Just update the paytable page for the wager and zero-out the T's column.

    Okay -- I added Lucky Lucky and King's Bounty. I think that's all I'm going to do on this for now.

    TriLux is very common.

    Please change lucky lucky pay table
    Suited 21 from 10-1 to 15-1

    15-1 is the standard Payout. I commented that 1 only place is using 10-1.

    TIA
    Super 4 with jackpot which I have seen as high as $500K at the casino I play at (takes over a year to get to $500K).

    Here is the Super 4 pay table I play.

    $5 Super 4 Payouts
    Player initial $5 Super 4 bet is taken before payout.
    1. Dealer Ace up (No Blackjack) $15
    Dealer Blackjack triggers these Super 4 payouts
    2. Any Hand $25
    3. Pair $50
    4. All Same Color $75
    5. Two Pair $150
    6. Flush $250
    7. Straight $350
    8. Three of a Kind $750
    9. Royal Flush (Spades, Hearts, Clubs) 10% of jackpot
    10. Royal Flush (Diamonds) 100% of jackpot

    It appears that anything you want to analyze for TriLux you can do by analyzing the same payouts in 21+3. Am I missing something? I understand that a fixed tip for the dealer is built in, but other than that it's just 21+3.

    So many ways around patents ...

    You can edit the pay tables. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

    Eliot,

    In my part of the world the dealer does not take a Hole Card (NHC) so I also assume that there would also be no difference in the calculated edges for the same side bets in both Blackjack and Spanish 21?

    NHC should not matter. I have not tested the sheet on SP21, but I think if you set the T's to 0 it should work.

    Here is a video about the sheet:

    Usual at home breakfast is scrambled eggs and fruit salad. If that was Saturday, May have had a toasted bagel as well.
