Picking Correct Card Picking Correct Card

Recently at the end of a session when closing a table a window will appear asking you to risk the amount you won to possibly double it by either picking a red or a black card. This intrigued me as to whether or not it would be anywhere close to fair to the end user. So your odds are basically 48%, because there is a joker in the mix that you cannot win on. So after 10 sessions I picked black every time, expecting to win roughly 4 out of 10. I won 1 time. So 9 out of 10 times it was a red card exposed, and 8 out of the 10 times it was the same red card, the Jack of Diamonds. Has anyone else tried this and what were your results? Just curious.

From what I understand there are 2 jokers. I've never tried it tho.

Yes, did it 3 times, won twice, picked black twice & red once.

Go to Settings, somewhere there is a button to deactivate this feature! Its massivly -EV for u and WPN is geat in hiding this. I didnt even realised that there were Jokers in that deck.. When i was new to WPN i did this a couple of times, because i was naive and stupid and thought it was just a 50/50 flip, which, because of the jokes, isnt!

Also i did the color choise like 7-8 times, and was wrong every ****ing time, which let a tiny little bit in me delieve its rigged

tl;dr its massive -EV stop doing it!

the first time I did the don at the end, my son said dad, "DON'T". I've won 5 out of 6 times!(so far).

If you see the Jack of Diamonds over and over - perhaps pick red next time...

Jokers should be wild IMO

this is really getting strange. most of the time i pick red. a few minutes ago i did this for the 8th time within a few months. i picked black this time. that choice won. in any case, i believe i've won 7 out of 8 times.

is there a place on our accounts where it keeps a record of wins/losses for the don choices?

I picked black 1 time, and lost.

I picked red 3 times in a row and won 3 times, after 1 session.

Does Joker = push, or lose?
