Chan Chu 6The Chan Chu 6 is a pair of baccarat side bets. Both win on a winning Banker total of 6. The "Small" version pays if the Banker hand consists of two cards and the "Big" version with three cards. I noticed these side bets at the Venetian in Las Vegas on October 8, 2024.

Pair Blackjack Side BetThe "Pair" is a simple side bet based on the player's first two cards and the dealer's up card. The object is to have a pair, or better yet a three of a kind, among these three cards. I saw the side bet at the Venetian in Las Vegas on October 8, 2024.
