    Don Willard: Match Play

    I have been playing at small Indian clubs for some time. Many offer "Match Play" as a side bet. Same suit pays 2 1/2:1. Suited Blackjack 5:1. KQ of the same suit 25:1.

    Has anyone computed the expectation of this side bet?

    See version three.

    Also, see pp. 40-42 of BJA3, where the payoffs are different, but where you can follow the logic and ascertain the results on your own.
