Hi guys
I have a question in relation to how the RNG used by Playtech works for their Blackjack games. I asked a representative of Sky Casino and he told me when pressed "the outcomes are random, but the cards are not, they are a display". However I am now just as confused as before.
The reason I ask is because I have compiled some data from thousands of hands played across different websites that utilise Playtech software, and I find myself looking at the same predictable card patterns a lot.
My understanding of the RNG is that the outcome is selected once you press 'deal' - win, lose, or push. Then the way the cards are dealt afterwards is just a display, and whether you hit or stand the cards would be adjusted and drawn accordingly to match the outcome chosen. So while the outcome is random, the cards are not - and this defeats the purpose of the game in the first place, at least that's how it comes across to me.
Can someone explain the process fully please, have I got this wrong? I am not losing at the moment, I'm running within expectation, but I am still noticing strange patterns and delays in drawing cards etc that leaves me wondering how the entire thing works.
Hope someone can help, thanks.
