888 - don't like the BJ

[dabruin2]

Having read through this thread, my conclusion is this thread didn't have to be made. First, it's ridiculous that nikest pees on the trough he feeds from. Second, it is gambling because there is no guarantee of winning. Sometimes you hit a ridiculous cold streak, sometimes you hit a tremendous hot streak, especially in the game of blackjack. That being said, you just had bad luck. Had I been you, when I lost my third hand in a row, I would've just walked away and taken a break, instead of sit there and endure punishment.

hi guys!
this might be my luck, but its very hard to believe. now i know that how can this group be so genoerous in bonuses and signup bonuses. i just lost $600 in about 5 mins playing bj.i played 36 hands.
won hands = 7
push= 5
loose =24

is it a bad luck or a proprietry casino adjusting odds for its favour?
this group definitely deserves its place in the rogue. definitely not to play, not to promote and a bunch of dishonest group.

I just played ~1000 hands of BJ at casino on net while fulfilling a wagering requirment for their "happy hour" promotion. This is large enough to get a decent feel for non-random distribution. While there were some suspicious results, there was nothing too rare to be random. More details results are below:

Expected Return (includes bonuses): +$100.4
Actual Return (includes bonuses): +$88
One SD: 68% chance of being +$10 to +$190
SD range is a crude estimate since my betting size varied from $1 to $4, rather than using a consistent size.

-- Unusual Events --
--Roughly 3/4 of the first 15 dealer aces were a BJ. It was enough for me to buy insurance. This pattern ended in the later 2/3 of the hands. It may just be a coincidence or it may relate to me buying insurance.

--There were several series of 2 or 3 dealer BJs in a row. There is a thread in the bonus complaint section where a player mentions 5 dealer BJs in a row.

--My gain dropped from +$190 to +$88 during the final 20% of the wagering requirement. Until that point, there had not been such a rapid gain or loss.

i used to have random results from CON, and used to be my favourite casino. but these days i doubt about there bj game.i emailed there customer support and informed about my loss of $2000 in just 2 days. they added a bonus of $40 in my account. i plyed $5 per hand, and i hardly wagered $100 and my whole bonus of $40 was blown away. just wondering, if any1 has played rexcently blackjack there and wat was the output there?

And that is precisely why I play blackjack with live dealers.
