I'm no astrophysicist, but a star shouldn't gain any more mass when it goes nova, so black holes have the same mass as whatever star formed them. The difference being being stars give off light. And unless I'm missing something about gravity, how much mass something has will dictate the force of gravity around it. Then again, there might be something about density included there...
Regardless, stars are much more massive than planets and should have ridiculously higher gravity. I'll need to look into it more, though.
