In this site's quoted simulation of 100M hands on a six-deck game with a card count of the A,2,3 cards, I don't understand if the dealer is assumed to play out his <17 hands when the player goes bust.ĭifferant pay table. The House edge is quoted to be different than what the Wizard just calculated for what appears to be the same assumptions on BJ rules. do you lose the Buster BJ side-bet in this situation? Or does the dealer hits his cards anyway if he has less than a 17 in order to determine the outcome of the sidebet? If the dealer does not always play out his hand, the House Edge on the sidebet should be calculated assuming that the dealer does not play the hand when all players go bust -and thus the calculated side-bet should be a function of the number of players at the table. First, if the players all bust then usually the dealer does not hit his hand to determine whether hhands of <17 would ahve gone bust.
