approximately a 1% disadvantage for the player IF they play perfectly.
Most players do NOT play perfect basic strategy however (they stand on 15 v. 10...or they don't split their 99 vs. 6...or they don't double-down with A7 v. 6) so that probably takes most players to a 1.5% disadvantage.


If your 'friend' is thiniking that he is beating the game because he is employing some sort of alternative strategy (perhaps varying his bet-size) then you have a stupid friend.
