[ QUOTE ]
The house advantage is only .13 percent vs. most BJ games where it is around .48 or more. That alone makes it a more +EV game compared to BJ. Also, I could be mistaken, but I believe variance is lower as well. [/ QUOTE ] First off, Pontoon is .17% HA, but that's not important, close enough. However, you are DEFINITELY mistaken about the variance. Variance is MANY times greater in Pontoon than BJ, it isn't even close. |

Only about 30% higher. |
