"Lucky Goddess Blackjack shares the same rules and gameplay as regular blackjack, with the addition of a side bet. This side bet is similar to many casino games, such as MATCH THE DEALER in Spanish 21 or the Lucky Number 9 in Pai Gow Poker. Generally, side bets are considered traps, as the probability of winning the side bet is usually lower than winning the main bet. However, players are often enticed by the higher odds and the thrill of winning a substantial amount with a small wager.
In Lucky Goddess Blackjack, the side bet allows players to bet on their initial two cards forming a total of 20 points, specifically a pair of 10-point cards or an Ace and a 9. According to the rules, if the two 20-point cards are a paired and suited (e.g., two 10s of spades or two Kings of hearts), the dealer pays 19:1. If the two cards are suited but not paired (e.g., a 10 of diamonds and a Queen of diamonds), the payout is 9:1. If the two cards are neither suited nor paired (e.g., a King of spades and a Jack of diamonds), the payout is 4:1. To attract players to the side bet, the game offers a jackpot: if the initial two cards are a pair of Queen of Hearts (known as the Lucky Goddess), the dealer pays 125 times the side bet. Additionally, if the dealer has a blackjack at the same time, the payout is 1000:1. However, the likelihood of this scenario occurring is known only to the casino.
Understanding the rules of the Lucky Goddess Blackjack side bet, savvy players might consider counting cards to increase their winning chances. Many players, however, either always place the side bet or never do. In the long run, the former misses out on winning opportunities, while the latter reduces the risk of losing. The optimal strategy is to keep track of the number of 10-point cards already dealt. When the count of 10-point cards is significantly lower than the count of non-10-point cards, it becomes favorable to place the side bet. Interested players can put this strategy to the test during their casino visits." |
