I just wonder why you keep playing thousands of hands of blackjack every month if you always lose?

If the dealer gets 10 and you get A2 then A4, do you treat that as A7 and hit again?

Am up $40 in my last session before completing the bonus. Have been following the chart exactly and it really has helped.

Even I can answer that one. You hit A2 V 10, you hit A4 V 10, and you hit A2A4 (aka soft18) V 10. Hope that helps.

On a side note when I play BJ live in London I NEVER see punters hit a soft 18 V a dealer 9,10 or A. Come to mention it I see amazingly bad plays all the time in London casinos.

 

[GrandMaster]

I remember seeing some horrible bad plays, too. There are some players who will stand on 12 vs 10, then hit 16 vs 5. I once saw a guy playing two hands, he had 14 and 16 vs 10, he stood on 14 and hit 16. I still haven't understood the logic behind this.

Moving this to the "online casinos" section since it's really not a specific complaint.

A lot of players in London casinos firmly believe in hunches and will play very poorly based on what they "feel" is the next card coming out of the shoe.

The fact that we dont have a hole card makes this worse. I never sit at 3rd base for this reason. You try hitting your 15 V dealer 10 at 3rd base, get a 6 for 21 and then the dealer pulls a 10 for 20 and everyone bar you loses. It can get very uncomfortable indeed after that when your surrounded by angry triads

And the worst thing you can possibly do is come to the table and plonk a bet down in a new box without waiting for the next shuffle. Bets get taken down, you get looks of death and even verbally attacked.

$100 deposit back + $426 in profit playing single-player blackjack at Intercasino this month.

Fine with me if you don't believe it, though I will say that I lost my $40 deposit and $40 bonus at William Hill this month, too. That was tempered, though, by finding a little over $25 (I'm assuming comps) in my account which I withdrew before making the $40 deposit.

Lost $15 at Will Hill then and, yeah, I'll have some extra WR there to clear next month.

Just to keep this thread honest ... I lost my deposit and bonus at both Intercasino and Will Hill for the month of April. Yeah, I started early this month ...

So, yes, losing streaks do happen (even to me at Intercasino) ... first time in many months it's happened at Intercasino and I hope it doesn't become a trend.

Last month I won $550 playing Pontoon with the $100/$100 Intercasino bonus. This month I wiped out all $200 in less than 100 hands. But the chances of winning (ending up with more than $100 after meeting the bonus rollover) with $5 Pontoon are only 68%, so that's not surprising.

$.25 video poker is the safest way, but it takes a while to grind out the bonus.

If I may ask, what games did you play at these casinos and with what bets?

 

[Macgyver]

Single-player blackjack, at $5 flat-betting.

EDIT: Oh, at William Hill, it was $2 flat-betting but the same game.

 

[rmarrandino]

Intercasino is one of my favorites. I would have to go back and do a month to month analysis, but I don't think I've ever lost there over a full month. I'm up over $2k in just BJ profits, not counting the bonuses. I usually just bet $10/hand.

On the other had I have never won at Littlewoods or UK Betting, busting every deposit and being down over $1k.

Same software should yield similar results, Right?

 

[silcnlayc]

How Many BJ/21 can a dealer get?

For the last few months I have noticed a trend at Intercasino/VIP/Sands of Caribbean. I have been keeping track of

$5 flat-betting

at all three of these casinos since they have been a favorite of mine but lately (last 2 months or so) I have noticed somewhat of a big difference in the way the cards have been falling.

I am wondering if anyone else is seeing/feeling this?

Macgyver says: yes, losing streaks do happen (even to me at Intercasino) ... first time in many months it's happened at Intercasino

Usually, I come out ahead in BJ, but lately the dealer will pull a 21/BJ on ANY dbl down I do and then a few more in succession. This is at all 3 casinos... I get a BJ, dealer does too..its like I win 1 out of 5 hands avg...(I have tracked this) I just finished playing at Intercasino and it happened again...I think thier BJ game has become a joke, literally and absolutely frustating because you just know somewhow it just doesn't feel right/the same as before ...not just them but all Wagerlogic casinos. I guess it's time to take a LONG breather from them for me...

Does anyone else play at these casinos and this game that feels as if something is off/not quite right?

Winning and Losing streaks at BJ

Does anyone else play at these casinos and this game that feels as if something is off/not quite right?

I do play BJ at Wagerlogic software casinos, Intercasino and WH in particular. I've had my good days and bad days.

Losing streaks have been, are and will always be there for us. And, maybe it's just my idea, somehow losing streaks are more often than the winning ones. Strangest thing is, it takes one winning streak to make us feel we're the best BJ players in the world - but more than 10 losing streaks to make us get off our chair and realise that the odds are against us.

That's why it's called "Casino" and not "Charity". And I'm still unable to get this in my head - I keep winning at Poker Online and spent half - or even more - of my winnings at BJ. Losing 100$ playing BJ at $1 a hand , even by following the normal BJ strategy, makes me wonder about the 'luck' involved in online BJ...

I hear you and I have experienced exactly what you saying and its one of the reasons I no longer go to casinos frequently

I go to the casino to sort of relax and entertain myself and frequently I have to keep up with such bullshit from ignorant, depressed, unsuccesful human beings who go to casinos to cover up their problems and they take it out to the poor and at times very sweet dealers or to the players next to them. if you have problems keep them for you. What is worse is that the inspectors are often useless and they dont care if you are getting abused. They dont even care if the dealers are getting abused. I understand that casino is business that involves money BUT humans are more important!. Period. Nobody should be allowed to verbally abuse fellow players or the dealers, i dont care how much they bet. One certainly expects certain reactions like punching the table,or shaking your head etc. but what some people at times do is way out of line.
We can't put money above humans .They make me sick.

Hi Antibes,

I have had the same experiences as you with their BJ. I think it's crap (although I think InterCasino is a great operation). I know that you're bound to get some responses that will (my guess because I've seen them before) state:


- InterCasino is streaky. You'll lose 10 in a row, and just as easily you'll win 10 in a row.


- I withdrew over $1,000 just last week playing their BJ flatbetting! And it was in my NeTeller account in just under 24-hours.


- Streaks come and go, but rest assured, InterCasino BJ is solid and fair.


And on the other end (which falls in line with my experiences, therefore shaping my perception of their junk BJ) of the spectrum...


- I always lose their. In fact, I just quit playing their because of the dealer always drawing BJ. As of last week, my account is closed.


- I lost my monthly match-bonus w/deposit on minimum bets placed, in just under 30 minutes.


Like they say, "Up's and Down's".


I've played there several times, playing it by the book, and I would agree that it IS very streaky. I've been on the wrong end of those streaks each time. Zipping from $100 (deposit) to $0 in a under 30 minutes each time. I used to list their BJ as being the worst that I've come by... actually, it probably still is. But... I know others do well there (as stated by various posters). I find that most online BJ is junk unless you're playing with Live Dealers. I read that GrandMaster does well at single deck BJ via MG (roughly even), and I think that it's quite good (but for the record, while I do okay on small bets playing the Flash Version of single deck, I ALWAYS 100% get hammered when I increase my bets over $10... ALWAYS - ALWAYS- ALWAYS, I've read that it doesn't matter, and that the software doesn't take note of the value of the bet, but it ALWAYS happens to me... so I'm VERY gunshy about MG BJ). Global Player... similar to my experience with InterCasino BJ. I've only done well with PlayTech BJ (in the past), and RTG has been okay (until the software starts speeding-up at blinding speeds).


Like you, I get this "feeling" that things aren't going to be good when I keep getting 12's and pulling face cards. I love BJ, but I'll only play with Live Dealers (or at a B&M operation) these days.

[betting88]

Just lost another $40 from $342 bets - flat betting $1 again.

That's a loss of $111 in 4 sessions from $802 bets.

I don't know how to paste from the WH log viewer.

I am used to this as it happens in Intercasino and other sites.

What I can't understand is all you guys saying - oh you have to bet $1 million for it to even out and crap like that. I've been playing for a year doing the bonuses and this happens every month.

I use the WoOdds chart almost exactly - but the dealer is getting 20 and 21 almost every hand. When you get 12 - 16 you bust, but they don't.

I have never beaten these casinos on BJ, and anyone who says they do, I wouldn't believe them.

don't play WH bj. It's no fair!

 

[Ian92435]

Another horror month for me. I think something is wrong at all cryptologic casinos.

Lost 50 units in 399 hands at Ukbetting.
Lost 45 units in 246 hands at Littlewoods.

Raised my bets at will hill with 90 gbp in my account & lost 9 hands out of 11 playing pai gow with the onther 2 being pushes. funny it happened after i raised my bets.

Not even going to try intercasino this month, i think for a change i will keep my $100 this month.

WH's bj and pai gow are disasters. Try its casino war.

 

[tantalos]

I deposited $40 at WH and cashed out 80$, after completing the wager requirements for their monthly bonus playing BJ. I had a very hard time keeping my bankroll above 40$, after losing most of the first 60-70 hands. I couldn't even win with a 10-10, most of the time the dealer kept drawing 6's and 5's after a 10-5 ! ! In the end, having lost my patience , I decided to bet $5 per hand, and as soon as I reached $80 I cashed out...

I think I'll try Intercasino too, I'll let you know when I'm done ....

 

[Darem1]

Well, Intercasino is my favorite. I can honestly say that if I cashed out when I should have I would have been ahead about fifteen thousand in April. Instead I ended up with much less. Won't make that mistake again!
I play slots mostly, some video poker. Then in May I hit a losing streak when I usually win at the beginning of the month when everyone is on using their bonuses. Last week I played the no-download video poker game deuces wild.
(I wasn't at home to play the downloaded casino) I deposited $100 and that was going to be it for May. Played $5 per hand (dollar times 5) On the FIRST HAND I was dealt the ten, jack, ace, and king of hearts with some other card, which was promply discarded. I hoped for the deuce and for once was delighted to be dissappointed when the queen of hearts popped up. If I knew how to take a screenshot I would have. I cashed out the $4000 immediately, it was in my Neteller account the following evening. Played the balance of the $100 on several other games without luck. The next day I turned $300 into $1200 (on the downloaded slots games) and cashed that out as well.
So I have nothing but good thoughts for Intercasino. At least I know that when I win there and cash out I will be paid, but you gotta CASH OUT to get ahead!

 

[rtmlam]

While I can't say I've ever had any problems with Intercasino, can't say I have really ever gotten any real wins at this casino either.
I seem to have a horrific time with the slots there. I have seen some screenshots here with winners so I know someone out there is having success, just not me. I really like some of their slots especially the Marvel series, but I just can't win on the damn things. I don't always have a large bankroll and most of their slots do seem to require a little higher minimum wager and I always tap out rather quickly. This may contribute to my results there as I usually don't play for long until I'm busted. I will continue to give it a shot when I can and hopefully my luck with turn at Intercasino.

 

[Jhadur]

My last 3 months at both US and UK intercasinos have been wipeouts well within the WR. Flatbetting 2 units ($ or ).

I used to make money at both sites but they are playing and feeling completely different recently and I'm not sure if I'll bother next month.

Oh these wipeouts are my deposit and the bonus.

 

[dickens1298]

Last couple of months have been fairly decent for me. With the bonus, I've managed to make a nice profit collectively (although the most recent month was a very slim profit).

Candidly, I've almost entirely stopped playing online casinos, except to pick up any bonuses. With the comps that I can now receive at my local brick and mortars, and Vegas a few hours away, I'd rather not endure the streakiness that I've seen during my online play.

And most of you know that streakiness that I speak of - where the dealer continues to get 20 after 20, as you bust out on your 12s and 13s. Or when you just know - just KNOW - that the dealer is going to get a blackjack.

Do I think that the online casinos are "cheating"? Not really. Not when I can clear a profit. But I'd rather not deal with the aberrant streakiness and earn my comps by playing at local casinos. I'd daresay that if I have the itch so badly that I cannot suffer the 40-minute drive to the nearest casino, then I definitely DO have a gambling issue.

 

[Darem1]

Took a break, went to the beach, came back and played some more at Intercasino and I can't hit anything! Think I may wait until the 25th when my comp points are added. I sure do wish that there were some land based casinos within a short drive from where I live. We have a Native American casino in Tampa, the Hard Rock, and I get comp'd about two meals a month, so that's one trip down there, and a good buffet for hubby and me. But the odds aren't good so my bankroll is limited to whatever I want to lose when we go there, usually $50-$100. The buffet is worth $25 each. Last time I actually left with $100. We used to go to Biloxi eight hours away and we got comp'd for everything for a couple of days at the Grand and / or Beau Rivage and with the matching freeplay I could play with the casino's money for hours. What I like the most is you cash out your coin or ticket and you get your money back immediately. No waiting for winnings to get to Neteller and then waiting for your deposits to clear before Neteller will send funds back to my checking account. It is too easy to send the funds right back to the casino.
