full limit = rakemaker

I must be missing something.

In ignition blackjack, the payout for a pair being dealt is 11:1 as a side bet.

Our chances of being dealt a pair are 1 in 7 hands correct?

That would make the side bet a thing to do EVERY time, but it doesn't make sense because side bets never add expected value, they remove it.

What am I missing?

Nevermind... I figured it out.

Our odds aren't like poker where it stays 1 in 7 to hit a pair since there are more than 1 deck being played.
Our odds get worse with each deck they add to shoe.

It would be a rare discovery to find an online casino offering a mistake in your favor -- and it would not last long.
