match the dealer

[Johnrfla]

Greetings,

I saw a BJ table where you could bet on trying to match either of your first 2 cards against the dealers up card, is this game any good? The odds I believed paid out 20- 1 and 40 to 1 if they were matching set. I am not sure if it paid double if both your cards matched the dealers up card. Thanks for the info in advance

Are you sure of those payouts?
It usually ranges between 4-1 up to 22-1 depending upon how you match the dealer.
It does't become +ev until approx TC+5. If you are a GC member there's an entire thread about it.
