Blackjack side bets are a way for players to increase their chances of winning. When a player makes a side bet, the casino will give them the option to either take the coin flip or gamble on the hand being played.
If the player chooses to gamble, they can either place a bet on whether the hand will be an even or odd number of cards, or whether the first card will be higher or lower than the second card. If they choose to take the coin flip, they will receive two coins in return for their wager.
The idea behind side bets is simple – if a player believes that their hand has a higher chance of winning, they are more likely to put more money into the pot. By making a side bet, players can decrease their chances of losing money and increase their chances of winning.
