This is just false. With the casinos commision on each hand, the true casino edge is:
Bet on bank: 1.17%
Bet on player: 1.36%
A good game, but NOT the best odds in the house.
Casino edge on some other games:
Craps: 0.60% Pass line and double odds
Blackjack: 0.60% four deck basic strategy common rules
Roulette: 5.26% two-zero wheel
