I'm new to online gambling and even newer to CM. So I hope I'm in the correct section for the type of post I'm about to dispense.
Over the past 5-6 days, I have spent no less than $1000 ($500 @ each above casino) and the entirety of that money was deposited in $100 increments. That is, I'd make a $100 deposit @ Loco for example, then play til I eventually hit $0. Then over to GP and did the same thing. Back n' forth. And while I'm new to online gambling, I'm certainly no stranger to gambling in general, and without a doubt am not the best poker player, but am versed enough to have experience in both winning and losing outings.
But while playing online @ the above 2 casinos, with each $100 dep, for the entirety of each of those individual instances, only 2 times did I ever achieve a dollar amount winnings exceeding $200. Had I known then what I believe to be true now, I would have cashed out the moment I made my initial deposit back. But foolishly, I just kept pumping money into each casino (playing video poker, jacks or better the entire time) everytime I reached zero balance. I initially wrote it off as just bad luck, cuz, after all, this IS gambling and you win some, you lose some. But I don't see how it's possible that I could CONSISTENTLY lose the entire deposit and only on two instances did I even get north of $200, all of which, of course, I subsequently also lost.
Then, the last time I made a deposit, instead of paying attention to how much I was winning or in fact losing, I sorta kept track of just exactly what cards were being dealt to me again and again. It was then I realized that I suppose their software is pre-programmed to deliver the following combination of almost no way to win cards. About 80-90% of my hands dealt to me were as follows... 2 matching low number cards, one face card and then usually another number card just far enough away from the 2 low matching cards so as to not be able to consider holding all 3 number cards for a possible straight of straight flush. So then the question is, do I save the low number pair, or the single face card. Doesn't matter which you choose, almost ALWAYS it's a losing choice. It genuinely appeared to be essentially the same matrix and combination of cards only mixing up the different numbers used. The format was consistent again and again and again. Of course every now and then, a decent winning hand, but even that more or less just seemed to appear to either keep me playing or trick me into thinking my luck was changing. Whatever the case, there were times, quite frequently, in fact, that I would lose 15 or even 20 straight hands. I mean, again, I know this is gambling and you win some and lose some, but no random system on earth would (by laws of probability) allow for such a continuous string of losing hands. And if it were to legitimately occur, why then was there NEVER once any occurrence of the same number of winning hands (in a row I mean). I think 2-3 times in that $1000 I spent did I ever win more than 2 consecutive hands. One time 3 straight hands, but even then, it was a bullshit $5-10 gain, usually just enough to get back a given wager on a hand (usually playing $1 maxed out so $5 bets).
Anyway, perhaps it was just a rude awakening and it was indeed bad luck, but I've NEVER EVER had such a terrible string of consistently bad hands and consequently lost so much money so quickly.
