Was playing BJ at mohegan on 1/18 and everyone at the table except me was playing match the dealer. I have never seen so many people lose so much money. Everyone including the dealer was pressuring me to play but it is such a house bet. 13-1 odds of matching a card but the pay is 4-1. The woman next to me was playing 2 hands $25 each hand on match the dealer finally got two suited matches which paid. The problem is that the odds against winning can be anywhere from 2-40%. Avoid wives tales. There are a lot of bad strategies like never busting (never hit a 12+), mimicking the dealer and assume that the dealer has a 10 in the whole (with ace up). The problem with using any of these strategies is that they increase the house edge from 3 to 10 percent.

Hi, I need help on calculating the house edge of this bet.

How many decks are used in this game? Also, are the decks regular or Spanish?
Assuming eight regular decks, taking out the dealer's up card there are 415 cards in the shoe, 31 cards of the dealer's up card's rank, and 384 cards not of the dealer's up card's rank. There are 7 cards that are of both the dealer's up card's rank and suit, and there are 24 cards of the dealer's up card's rank but of a different suit.
The number of ways for 2 suited matches is 7× 6 / 2.
The ways for 1 suited + 1 non suited is 7 × 24.
The ways for 1 suited match is 7 × 384.
The ways for 2 non suited matches is 24 × 23 / 2.
The ways for 1 non suited match is 24 × 384.And the ways for no matches is 384 × 383 /2.
To find the house edge multiply each of the above numbers by its payout (the payout of no matches is -1.) Then divide the sum by the sum of the above numbers of ways, which should be 415 × 414 / 2.
For eight regular decks, I get a house edge of 7.11%.
appreciate the responses so far, but can anyone confirm the approximate 7 percent being correct? i just need the ballpark # within a percent

ChesterDog used the parameters you later confirmed, to come up with HE 7.11%. Penetration doesn't matter for this calculation. I think you have an accurate answer already.
