Don’t be surprised anymore!The online software seems to have its own rules and sometimes feels like it’s playing against you. Live is a different story — the dealer can’t really repeat those same situations. Still, each format has its own charm.The online software does whatever it wants!Play live, and the dealer will hardly ever deal like that again...

Whenever I played online blackjack I see the same "impossible" victories from the dealer!

The casino will always be in the black. Their goal is to give you emotions for your money.

If, based on this fact, you believe that casinos are a scam, then you'd better find yourself another, more peaceful hobby. Maybe cycling or tennis, for example.

With the advent of the internet, fraudulent schemes have reached a new level of development, striking not so much in their intricacy as in their scale.The one who said that you can only win at a casino by owning it is right. Otherwise, it's a waste of your hard-earned money and time. Work yourself to death and then invest in services like these. Even though they claim a 95 or even 99 percent return, that's not true.

This is a normal process. If you want to beat the dealer, you need to have more than him. It's like saying “Texas Hold'em is a rigged game because your opponent gets 1 of the 3 outs on the river.” The same with blackjack. Don't talk negative about gambling and poker! :cool:

Do you consider it cheating that the dealer had 21?
Do you think 21 is something that shouldn't be?

Cheating i don't know maybe bad luck but it happens quite often that's why I'm saying it's scam like I have seen same cards 10 20 times

Blackjack is a game where 21 is more than 20. If you think this is cheating, you are mistaken. It is simply mathematics.

I know 21 are common and not cheating but getting 21 exact same way like 3 4 times is concerning 😟

If this happens every time, i.e. if the dealer has 21 every time, then it is suspicious. But I think you are exaggerating, and in reality it does not happen every time.

Exactly, it seems impossible, but unfortunately I don't have a casino close to me!

Well, to win you first have to lose; that's why they're called games of chance. If you lose today, you'll surely recover and win tomorrow.

I really wished that is how odds worked! It would be lovely if yesterday’s play had any influence on today’s results. Sadly, chasing losses is how many players lose even more money.

Breathe, Shadow. You played correctly, variance took its toll. Next hand, same discipline.

Which site did you play on?

Official, licensed casinos are regularly tested and audited, so the chance that the game is manipulated is very low. If you play perfect basic strategy, the house edge is usually around 0.5–1%, depending on the rules (European, U.S.—where the dealer checks for blackjack first—or other variations). That built-in house edge is already enough for casinos to profit, so manipulating the games would be an unnecessary risk that could destroy their business if it were ever discovered.

If you feel like you’re losing too often, it’s usually just variance.

You’d need a large sample size of hands before you have any reliable basis for suspicion.
