Lucky Ladies Side Bet Payouts As you can see, the holy grail for Lucky Ladies fans is to hit two Queen of hearts in the starting hand, while the dealer goes on to make blackjack. When this jackpot scenario occurs, a $1 bet balloons into a sweet $1,000 score. Lucky Lucky Blackjack is a decent side bet by all means. While casinos prefer side bets that pull out the money from the players promising tempting payouts like the Lucky Ladies side bet, this side bet could become your favourite for a good reason. Statistics say that every fourth Lucky Lucky side bet pays back to the players. The Lucky Ladies side bet has become one of the most common blackjack side bets. It is popular among casino owners because it yields them a house edge of approximately 25%, or four to eight times the edge they enjoy with most other side bets. Lucky Ladies blackjack is named by many as the most popular side bet in history. To be honest, we are not sure that this statement is somewhat correct, but it’s not that important. Lucky Ladies is indeed a very popular game, not as Perfect Pairs or 21+3 Blackjack, but not far behind.

Lucky Ladies is an optional proposition bet used in the game of Blackjack. Lucky Ladies may be played on 2 to 8 deck games only.

The proposition is whether or not the player’s first two cards equal a total of twenty. Additional bonuses are paid if the player’s two cards equaling twenty are suited (e.g. Ace of Clubs and Nine of Clubs) or matched (e.g. two identical cards such as two King of Diamonds). Special bonuses are awarded if the player’s first two cards are each a Queen of Hearts (the Lucky Ladies), and the top prize is awarded if the player’s Queen of Hearts pair occurs at the same time the dealer has a blackjack.

The outcome of the primary blackjack bet has no bearing on the Lucky Ladies bet and vice versa. A player can win on one and lose on the other.

Prior to the start of each round of blackjack play, players are afforded the opportunity to place a voluntary Lucky Ladies bet on the designated spot on the table layout at the same time their primary bet is made and before any cards are dealt.

The minimum and maximum wagering limits of the Lucky Ladies wager are determined by the house and/or in accordance with their limits established by the gaming regulatory body. The wagering limits and any aggregate pay out limitations are to be posted on the table, in plain view of the players in accordance with the internal controls and gaming regulations.

After all wagers have been placed, the dealer deals the first two cards to each player and to themselves in the same manner as regular blackjack dealing procedures.

Once the dealer has dealt the first two cards to each player, the dealer must determine if any of the players that bet the Lucky Ladies wager have a hand whose first two cards total 20.

Beginning from the dealer’s right to left, in a counter clock-wise rotation, the dealer takes all losing Lucky Ladies wagers and pays all winning Lucky Ladies wagers.

There is one exception to the take or pay procedure described above. If any player with a Lucky ladies wager is dealt a pair of Queen of Hearts and the dealer has either an Ace, King, Queen, Jack or Ten card showing the Floor Supervisor will:

At this time, here should only be the following showing on the table: The remaining player’s first two cards (Queen of Hearts pair); their Lucky Ladies wager and the dealer’s first two cards (a blackjack).

At this time there should only be the following showing on the table: The remaining player’s first two cards (Queens of Hearts pair); their Lucky Ladies wager; and the dealer’s first two cards (a blackjack). The dealer then pays the Lucky ladies wager to the player with the winning Queen of Hearts pair and removes all cards.

Bust Bonus
