Question from a Player: I will be vacationing in Costa Rica again this year. They have casinos there, but blackjack is illegal. Instead, they have their own variation of blackjack, which they call “rummy” — not in any way related to the card game of rummy as played in the U.S.“Rummy” in Costa Rica is exactly like blackjack, dealt by a house dealer, except that they have a slew of weird rules and bonuses. The game is dealt from a 4-deck shoe, and they deal pretty deeply — I’d say about 3 decks dealt. Costa Rican Rummy Rules
The one bad rule is that blackjacks pay even money. But, listen to the good rules:*Dealer stands on soft 17.*Unlimited resplits of pairs, including aces.*Double down on any two cards.*Double after splits allowed.*Early surrender vs. both ten and ace!*Three 7s pays 5-to-1.*Any other 3 of a kind pays 3-to-1.*Take insurance on a dealer ten up! (And if the dealer has an ace in the hole, the insurance pays 10-to-1!)*Three card straight flushes pay 3-to-1!Have you ever heard of a set of rules like this before? I’ve been an amateur card counter for many years. I use the old John Archer ten-count. Can you tell me what kind of an advantage I can get in this Costa Rican rummy game, and also do I take insurance vs. ten up at the same count that I use for insurance with an ace up? Thanks!Costa Rican Rummy—the Killer Rule
Answer: Frankly, I doubt that you can get much of an advantage in this game. Because of the deep shuffle point, you may be able to get an edge if you use a very large spread, but it won’t be much of an edge. I admit that I have not done any detailed analysis of this unique game, because I believe it’s a waste of time.That “one bad rule” — blackjacks pay even money — is a killer, worth about 2.3% to the house. Even with all of the other great rules and bonuses, the house still probably has close to a 1% advantage over you off the top of the deck. That’s tough to beat with card counting at this level of penetration.Regarding the option to take insurance when the dealer has a ten-valued card up — don’t do it. This is a sucker bet. That 10-to-1 payoff is just too low. You would need almost 13-to-1 to make it a break even proposition.
Also, your card counting system will provide no help in determining when to place this bet. You would want to be counting aces vs. non-aces in order to know when to place this bet, but with such a poor payoff, you’d be wasting your time if you kept the side count. If they ever offer the option with a 12-to-1 payoff, then it might be worth it to count the aces. The house would still have the advantage off the top, but you would see occasional profitable insurance opportunities. At 10-to-1, don’t hold your breath. Despite the vast array of bonus payouts, altogether they are not worth very much. All of those 3-card hands are pretty rare. It’s more likely that the house makes more money by offering these bonuses than the players make by collecting on them. Some players will be tempted to violate basic strategy in order to try for the bonus payouts, such as occasionally hitting a two-card stiff when basic strategy tells you to stand, or hitting a pair when you should be splitting it. Such plays could be quite costly in the long run. Few players would be tempted to hit a pair of jacks or kings in order to try for three of a kind, but more might be tempted to hit a pair of aces or eights instead of splitting. If you’ve got a pair of eights, the odds against being dealt a third eight in a 4-deck game are about 14-to-1. But the payout for making the hand is only 3-to-1! The actual cost to the player who makes this blunder-bet will, of course, depend on the dealer upcard. As for those 3-card straight flushes, the odds against your making one of these hands are even worse. Assuming you start with two of the necessary cards, the odds against catching a straight flush on the next card dealt are almost 26-to-1, or about 51-to-1 if you’re foolish enough to try for an inside or closed end straight flush! Trying for that 3-to-1 payoff for making it is very costly to the player. It’s unlikely that any practical card counting system could be devised to take advantage of these bonuses. It would be extremely rare that any variation from basic strategy, or your count strategy, would be the optimal way to play a hand in order to try for a bonus. Recommended Strategy for Costa Rican Rummy
If you think the game of rummy is fun, and you’re intent on playing it since it’s the only form of blackjack they have in Costa Rica, here’s my recommended strategy: Follow your normal card counting strategy for all playing decisions. It’s especially important that you take full advantage of the early surrender option, because this is the most valuable rule on the table.
(I don’t believe the “Archer Method” provided early surrender decisions. If not, you should either learn basic strategy for early surrender, available in most modern card counting books, or switch to a more recently developed counting system so that you can learn a few of the important indices for altering your strategy.)
Ignore the insurance vs. ten-up option. Never try for a bonus hand; just be happy when you collect on one during the course of your normal play. Don’t raise your bet until your count system indicates that your advantage has gone up by about 2% (with that unbalanced Archer Count, wait until a running count of +30!), and use as much of a betting spread as you can get away with (and afford). If a casino with otherwise standard blackjack rules (i.e., blackjacks pay 3-to-2!) put all of those other Costa Rican rules and bonus hands in a game, it would be a very valuable game for a card counter. Even the basic strategy player would have the edge in such a game. But when blackjacks pay even money, forget it. $2 Blackjack In Reno
If you can use a very large spread, you might get slightly over the break even point in this Costa Rican rummy game. But don’t expect to make big bucks at it. ♠

Vegas Three Card Rummy is the only table on the casino floor where less really is worth more. This poker-style card game is a perfect alternative to all other poker games, since the rules are easy to learn and the strategy is simple to follow. I’ve broken down the rules, rewards, and the right way to play Vegas Three Card Rummy so you can hit the virtual or physical tables and make some sweet cash in a flash.Know the 3 Card Rummy rules
You’d be surprised how many suckers go to the table not knowing a single thing about Vegas Three Card Rummy and claim that they’ll “learn on the way.” Granted, the rules are pretty stinkin’ simple, but it’s always better not to lose money while you’re trying to figure out how to play. That’s why most online casinos like Slots of Vegas offer instant play – you can get the hang of gameplay for free before you lay money on the line.Play Awesome 3 Card Rummy at Slots of Vegas Casino
Vegas Three Card Rummy’s rules are easy to learn and remember. The game is played with a standard 52-card deck, and each card is ranked according to their poker value. The only exceptions are the aces, which are always low.
Like golf, the goal of Three Card Rummy is to be the guy with the lowest number of points. Unlike golf, the number of points restarts with each round/hand, and the card game goes a hell of a lot faster than 18 holes.
The values of the cards is Vegas Three Card Rummy are:Cards 2 through 10Face ValueJack, Queen, King10 pointsAce0 pointsPair0 pointsAny three of a kind0 pointsTwo-card suited run0 pointsThree-card suited run0 points
Here’s how gameplay works: the player makes an ante bet and an optional bonus bet, which we’ll get into later. The dealer and the player then get three cards each, with the player’s dealt face up and the dealer’s facedown. The player can then fold and give up their ante bet or raise with a bet equal to the ante. The dealer then shows his cards and the hand is settled based on whoever has the lowest number of points. The dealer must have 20 points or less to qualify; if he doesn’t, the player’s ante wager is paid 1:1 and the raise bet pushes.
Along with an ante bet, players have the option of making a bonus bet before the cards are dealt. The bonus bet pays only according to the value of a player’s hand – there’s no bet against the dealer. An aspect of Rummy that brings us to the next point of interest…Know the rewards
In Vegas Three Card Rummy, each bet is paid according to different rules. When a player wins any hand in any situation, the player’s ante bet is paid 1:1 – no exceptions. When the dealer doesn’t qualify in any situation, the raise bet is pushed. The payouts for raise bets and bonus bets differ according to the value of a player’s hand.
Raise bet payouts based on hand value:Whats A Rummy In Blackjack04 to 11 through 52 to 16 through 191 to 1
So, when a player places a raise bet worth $5 and wins the hand with a value of 4, the player receives $10 on the raise bet and $5 for the original ante. Cake.
The bonus bet, on the other hand, doesn’t rely on the player beating the dealer for a payout. For this one, a player is paid purely based on how many points his hand is worth.
Bonus bet payouts based on hand value:What Is A Rummy In BlackjackSuited A-2-3100 to 1025 to 11 through 62 to 17 through 101 to 111 through 124 to 113 through 30LossBovada Blackjack Odds
Say a player places an ante bet worth $10 and a bonus bet for the same amount. Cards are dealt, and the player has a value of 12, so he raises for another $10. The dealer turns over his cards and has a hand worth 10. In this situation, the player loses both his ante and his raise bets worth $20, but wins $40 from his bonus bet.
Got it? I knew you would. Pay close attention to the value of every single hand – when you’re playing online, the computer automatically tells you the number of points you have. In a brick-and-mortar casino, not so much. If you plan on playing at a physical table, try practicing with free online play at Slots of Vegas first. You’ll probably (definitely) save some money that way.Know the right way
That is, know the right way to play. Vegas Three Card Rummy strategy is pretty simple. I’ve thrown some charts at you before this, but don’t worry – Rummy isn’t like blackjack, with lengthy strategy rules to memorize in order to help you accomplish perfect play. There are only a few rules.
The first rule is: raise on any hand with 20 points or less, and fold with 21 or more. The house edge for this strategy hovers around 3.2 percent, the lowest it can possibly get for this game.
Since the dealer qualifies with 20 points, it’s not smart to raise when a player has more than that. If the dealer doesn’t qualify and the player wins, the player gets his raise bet back and wins 1:1 on his ante. Not really worth it when the odds of a player winning against the dealer with higher than 20 points are pretty low. If you want to cut down on risk, follow this one consistently.Latest winnersWant to be one of the top winners?How To Beat Bovada BlackjackWhat Is A Rummy Bet In BlackjackThe ante and raise bets offer better odds of winning. The ante bet has a risk of around 1.96 percent versus the bonus bet’s risk of 3.46 percent. However, the payouts for the bonus bet are relatively good, and the odds of getting a low hand are higher than you might think. The general suggestion is to avoid the bonus bet, but if you’re feeling lucky, go for it. There’s an exception to every rule.How To Play Blackjack At A Casino
That’s all, folks – you know everything you need to know to start making bank at the Rummy table. Take my final and most important piece of advice – head over to Slots of Vegas and play Vegas Three Card Rummy on instant play before you start throwing down the bills. You and your bankroll will be that much happier.
