Certainly BJ is better than 8/5 Jacks.
BJ is probably better than 9/6, but it depends on the specific BJ
game - S17 or H17, DOA, LS, # of decks, etc.

I think it also depends upon other things that one should take into account.
If you were playing blackjack at a mid level casino for a minimal play level like $10 per hand, for 5 or 6 hours per day, you would not receive much of anything from the casino in the way of comps or cash rebates.
If you were playing 9/6 jacks or better for 5 quarters per hand, for the same length of time, you could receive some decent comps and cash rebates, and mail offers for rooms.
