Given the choice what would you do in this scenario:

Player 1 has 20 and is available to back at 1.39

Dealer has a 10 and can be layed at 2.19

£100 lay of the dealer means liability of £119 if the dealer hits the 20 or 21 (or the unlikely charlie :-)...£119 back on the 1.39 gives you a potential profit of £46 OR ONLY a loss of £30 if the dealer hits the 20...

Which way would the majority of people play this???

Isn't laying the dealer the same as backing the player ?.

No, a player can tie with the dealer, but the DWTA bet is either a winner or loser.

Ok I get where you are coming from now.
It certainly wasn't clear ( to me at least) in your first post.
So you're asking is it better to take 1.39 for the win or draw, or take 1.84 for only the win.
I don't think there would be any difference long term, as both odds would represent bad value just below the true probability.
The mkt. making bots do not set these odds incorrectly ever in my experience.
I wish they did even just occasionally.
But thst's a vain hope I'm afraid to say.

Sorry just realised Grunweld and not Benni posted the last entry clearing up that laying the DWTA bet was what was being asked about.
Same reply though.

take the 1.84 so you'll be less**ed off when you lose
