Screen Shots that Suck!

Call me an idiot or something but how the hell did you lose the last bet? It's PONTOON that you're playing. You have 18 and the Dealer has 3+4+5+6 = 18. Its a PUSH, not a loss. How the hell did he take your bet for that hand?

Something fishy is going on here... I'd be looking into it if I were you.

o yea, good eye

Do I need to point out that dealer wins ties in pontoon?

Please don't - obvious answers makes short threads

I never do play Pontoon much. I tried it a few times before and well... you could say that I lost EACH and EVERY hand that was played. So, I totally quit that game.

So OK... I might not know that Pontoon is played with TIE being a loss. Gosh... I don't see how anyone could actually want to play that game. Dealer gets 2 cards, you don't know what the cards are and etc. What the hell are you suppose to do? At least at normal BJ, you will be knowing 1/2 of what the dealer has and etc. At least know when to HIT and when NOT to HIT.

I don't know, I just don't like it. As I said earlier, I lost every hand that was played when I tried it previously. So, I'm not touching it ever again.

I would recommend that you check the rules before you play any game. There are several rules in pontoon that favour the player, e.g., winning pontoons and 5 card tricks pay 2:1, the player can double on any hand with fewer than 4 cards except pontoon. Pontoon has a lower house edge than most versions of blackjack, but it is volatile, so you can expect longer losing streaks than at blackjack.

If you don't get it, look at the COIN

[liquidsoap]

ouch but a wins is a win

I have used up my Royal Flush allowance for December on this!!!
Complete waste, and the casino quickly took this back

I was playing the 10K Xmas giveaway, if I had been playing VP "properly" this would have been an 8K win

Not sure how much "would have" happened, but kinda sure the result sucked ...

If you don't get it, look at the COIN

Ouch. $40 for a royal...

Playing VP at less than max coin must have a worse return than the worst of the slots!

Of course, you can take comfort in the already oft mentioned fact, that you would not have hit the royal had you changed your coinage, due to the workings of the RNG, so don't lose any sleep over it
