Hi guys from Italy, at this moment I can afford to deposit 1.500 € (about 2.060 USD) in a casino online to play BJ.

I'm 48, with a wife and two children, so I'm not in feeling to go in a land based one (the closest is about 100 miles far from my home, and it's not open 24/24).

About ten years ago I was used to play BJ at Global Player Casino. I think it was very good: fair randomness, large spread from minimum bet to maximum (1-300, and if there was in the hand some doubling and/or splitting, the maximum could increase over 300), multi-hand tables, quick withdrawals, good customer service.

Unfortunately, they closed their gates (maybe they were TOO fair... :p)

So, I've a couple of question for the community:

1) Have you a casino on line to suggest for me to play FAIRLY? I don't claim to win always, but I claim to play without being cheated. I've heard very good opinions about almost all gambling sites and forums about 32RED one. What do you think about this casino?

2) My intention is to play ONLY multi-hand BJ, preferably with SURRENDER option. I know wery well the right strategy to minimize the house edge; with surrender allowed and comp points (generally they lower the house edge of 0,10% because you have a credit of 1 € every 1.000 € put on the table), it would be about 0,27% (2,70 USD lost every 1.000 USD put on the table).

Of course I don't want to make large average bets, to minimize the risk of ruin (bankrupt), and to meet possible bonus requirements. Let's say:

average number of seats taken: 3
average bet for seat: 2,5 €
average global bet: 7,5 €

So, with my 1.500 € deposit, I can afford 1.500 / 7,5 = 200 global hands, or 1.500 / 2,5 = 600 single-seat hands.

The question is (and I'm sure is full of interest to many other players like me): in community opinion, how many MINIMUM hands can I play (with house edge of 0,27%) before to go in bankrupt without to be afraid of being cheated, in respect of standard deviation rules? I mean, if I play 200 hands (7,50 € average bet each, with 3 seats average bet 2,5 € each), and I go in bankrupt after putting on the table my 1.500 €, it's no doubt they are cheating (house edge: 100%, simply ridiculous). If I play 2.000 hands, I put on the table 15.000 €, and house edge would be 10%; I think this would be MUCH suspect. With fair 0,27% house edge, and my best strategy in action, I would expect to put on the table at least 555.555,55 € (1.500 / 0,0027) before to go in ruin. I think, at any rate, it would be acceptable to see the house hedge DOUBLING (from 0,27% to 0,54%), but NOT MORE. In this last case, I would put at least on the table 1.500 / 0,0054 = 277.777,78 € before to go in bankrupt. Not less.

It's only my opinion.

Thanx in advance to everybody who will partecipate to the discussion!!

Much greetings!!

Hello! :)
First of all, i am pretty sure any reputable software are not corrupted, and you will not be cheated ( at least i am sure in microgaming and netent). But if would like to suggest you make 3-4 small deposits in few differents casinos with different blackjack, and see, which one bj you like more, this is much more better than ask on forum ' i would like deposit 1.5k told me which BJ to play'. Our opinion can be very different , so i am really suggest to try yourself first.
by the way, i am believe your math incorrect. I am totally not math guy, but if you hope that after 2000 hands your RTP should be math correct, you should stop it. To see real 0.27% edge, you need much more spin. During 2k hands you can have 50%, 80%, 150%, no one know what you can have, because 2k hands is small distance. OR no, hope someone clarify this for us :P
