Default Which casino game has the lowest HA behind BJ and Pontoon?

Besides roulette, craps and other games that online casinos typically don't allow to be used for bonuses.

I ask because I want to clear the monthly bonus at Sands of the Caribbean, but BJ and Pontoon only count for half as much as everything else. What's my next best option?

Thanks.

Almost definitely some variant of VP, most likely Jacks or Better if they're using a 9/6 payscale.

the crypto 9/6 JoB tables only pay 20 on 4OAK so it's definitely not full pay.

I believe the Double Bonus layout has the lowest house advantage, but they have some bastardized schedule from the "correct" 10/7 format, and variance is huge.

Your next best option is Pontoon.

It's multi-player Pontoon before you question my reading comprehension.

Genius.

It appears I'm the one with poor reading comprehension.

Thanks so much.

Now I wonder what "regular blackjack" includes...

Multiplayer? Multihand? Multisplit? Single deck?

Who knows...

ROFLMAO Um, roulette has the single highest house edge among table games. I hope you dont think that roulette is right up there with craps!

I dunno, the way it's worded with him asking a question about what games have low house edged and then says "besides roulette, craps, ect..", it just struck me as funny.

Progressive and Multisplit BJ also count 100% towards WR.

If they have that progress bar thingy on the bonus page, play a little and check on the bar you will know for sure if multiplayer Pontoon/Progresssive BJ/Multisplit BJ count as full or half towards WR.

If you don't see the progress bar, you can always email/phone customer support before you wager anything.
