Naturally house edge comes from the 0.5:1 payement instead of 1:1 on winning hands when the ace of spades falls within the first three cards dealt (minimum requirement to have a resolved hand is 4 cards).
The problem is to assess whether every card dealt by CSM is really a total independent event from the previous ones and obviously it's not (at least partially).
Actually, the color of the last card is more important, not the first, due to the reverse mechanic. This is why high value cards will have a high effect of removal.
You can bet that the last card will be red, black, the same color as he first card or different color from the first card.
is a big card, too.
