Double attack blackjack

Hi,

I am adding Double Attack blackjack to my Android game (www.ubj3d.com).

What bothers me is the "BustIt" side bet. What if the game stops before the dealer draws 3 cards (e.g. player gets blackjack or busts) ?

Is the "BustIt" side bet returned ?

Or does the dealer always draws at least 3 cards (if there is "BustIt" bet) ?

Thank you for the help.

Regards,
Damir.

Is it possible that no one knows the answer ? :(

I have searched the web but I can't find an answer.
Really need this answer because I wish to implement it right.

I have played this game a couple of times and I do not recall ever seeing the dealer take a 3rd card when the round is complete due to players having busted or having blackjacks.

An optional “BustIt” side bet is available. The “BustIt” bet pays if the dealer busts with exactly three cards. Otherwise, the “BustIt” bet shall lose. Most wins will pay based only on the dealer’s third “bust” card, as follows. There is a premium win if the dealer’s three cards are all eights.

……… BustIt Side Bet: …… Event: …… Pays:

  • Dealer has suited 888 200 to 1
  • Dealer has colored 888 50 to 1
  • Dealer busts with 6 15 to 1
  • Dealer busts with 7 10 to 1
  • Dealer busts with 8 8 to 1
  • Dealer busts with 9 6 to 1
  • Dealer busts with face card 3 to 1

Is the side bet in this case returned or lost ?

Sounds strange to me to lose the side bet because you got blackjack.

Also, what if there are moe players e.g. 6 and there are players not busted and not with blackjacks, the dealer has to draw more cards.

So the bust it bet would be more safe if there are more players.

My guess is:

a) either the dealer always plays his hand if there is side bet
b) or if the dealer doesn't plays his hand the side bet is returned

My guess is you lose your side bet. The dealer didnt bust. If the side bet was that important to you you didnt have to bust your own hand. If everyone is busting out the dealer doesnt have a stiff and is less likely to bust anyway.

Doesn't this bet favor 5-6 and tens, while A-4, and 7-9 are negative? I thought I read some sort of research indicating that...
