P&O cruise tomorrow

Not sure the 3 card poker is as good as you think, if you play the ante, pair plus and prime your looking at an eye watering over 14% house edge, and that’s not counting the play risk of 2%. And don’t get me started on the all 6 bet as that’s another 15% if you play it.

The pair plus is the biggest culprit at over 7.2% compared to my local of 2.7%

At my local B&M we don’t have the 6 bet but if I was to play all three bets I would be facing a bit over 8% house edge, so quite a difference so be careful.

Back from my short cruise, spent easily 25+ hours in the casino playing mainly BJ and a bit of 3 card.

BJ had a few decent 2 hour+ sessions and a couple of horror sessions lol The game goes quite slowly as many people dont know how to play and have never played the game before. Overall lost about £400 playing £10 - £15 a hand on average.

Ended up about £100 up overall, thanks to hitting a 10 9 8 hearts and the deaders cards had a Q and J of hearts. I was betting £3 on Pair plus and £2 on the all 6 so paid out about £600.

Really great time and the cruise/food/entertainment etc were all first class.
