• As with all negative expectation games, play the minimum bet to make your money last longer.

• Avoid the side bet. Payouts for this bonus bet vary from casino to casino, but in all cases the house advantage is very high.

• Most casinos have a maximum payout per hand. This maximum payout also includes the bonus bet. Never place a bet that has a possible payout that exceeds this maximum payout.

• Players can place a bet for the dealer by placing a chip or chips above the left betting circle. If the player’s hand wins, the extra bet for the dealer is paid at the same payout schedule.

• Be aware that less than one in four hands is a winner. This low win frequency is offset by payoffs for multiple bets and the payout scale for high hands.
