A blackjack will appear once every 20.7 hands. If a player gets approximately 50 blackjacks at $20 bets in a 2 or 3 day gambling trip or bet $1000, they will win $1200 (blackjacks paid at 6:5) instead of $1500 (at 3:2 blackjack). That's a $300 difference! Enough to buy your spouse/friends a filet mignon steak dinner and more instead of a Big Mac at McDonald's with a 6:5 win. A basic strategy player is better off playing baccarat (player or banker) or craps (pass/don't pass line) at a lower house edge if faced with 6:5 blackjacks
