Games with 'par' odds

[hedges]

yeah, i think i'd stop somewhere around 500k... seriously, though, it's easy to forget that the whole no house edge thing doesn't mean that you're going to not lose any money. i learned that when i lost a bundle taking the odds on the pass line, even though it's the 'best bet in vegas'. still, all things being equal, i figure no house edge is a good bet, even if in reality it only means increasing your odds by a percent or two.

as for slot wizard's comment, i've never had any connection trouble on bet voyager in either the demo or the real deal. too bad you can't access it.

yeah - I get that. House edge is just a number though. It's still all random.

I was able to access the demo mode, and there were no connection problems. The gameplay was just very, very slow is all.

Simply click "Settings" button in game window and set game speed to max. value (see attachment). "Auto" button also vey helpful (for slots)
Hope it will help you.

It does not prove that the roulette spins or card shuffles have the right distribution and are independent.

I thought the same too before I have not looked their video about Randomness control.
They offer the shift for the correction of the 'planned' number and opportunity of cutting the desk and reordering the cards.

I can confirm this by experience. How come I can loose 75€ in 100 hands playing basic strategy and minimum bets? The house always seems to NEVER bust and match your 20's with 21's...Not playing there anymore!

100 hands is a small sample, relatively speaking. Sounds like you hit a run of bad luck. Sorry about that.

and when you don't win, you lose. Loose means that it's not tight.

What software you use for calculating house edge?
