Normally they pay you 35-to-1 and here they pay you only 35-for-1 where the true odds are 38-for-1. So the chips are worth 35/38 --- which is about 92%. This is a FAR higher EV than wasting them on a 48% BJ bet.

Bob, I have never been able to use a match play on a number at roulette. All the match plays I have ever used will state that they could only be used at roulette on even money bets.

Are the 4 Queens match plays different in that regard? That's a huge difference in EV, if they will let you use your match plays on a number.
