I've been recording every possible payout on the two Blackjack side bets as of lately and thought I would post them here too for anyone curious, as well as briefly describe the side bets and how to win them, as I often hear people ask
I could find some old threads with similar information; however, the numbers varied from what I have. These are accurate as of 2026



21+3
(Bet that your first two cards & the dealer's up card make a Three Card Poker hand when combined)

Flush: 5:1 (Three cards of any rank, suited)

Straight: 10:1 (Three cards of consecutive rank, any suit)

Three of a Kind: 30:1 (Three cards of the same rank, any suit)

Straight Flush: 40:1 (Three cards of consecutive rank, suited)

Suited Three of a Kind: 100:1 (Three cards of the same rank, suited)




Perfect Pairs
(Bet that your first two cards make a pair of some sort)

Mixed Pair: 5:1 (Pair of any colour & suit)

Coloured Pair: 12:1 (Pair of the same colour)

Perfect Pair: 25:1 (Pair of the same suit)
 
My personal go-to if I play for side bets is 5:1:2 (e.g. $5,000 main, $1,000 perfect pairs, $2,000 21+3) whilst just playing perfect strategy. So far I've had insane sessions using this method like a few days ago when I flipped $20,000 into around $300,000
