I was playing at sportsbook.com and pretty much lost all my units.. Now the only reason im not going apesh!t is because it was house money. And im a moron for playing it..

I won probably 1 out of 8 hands.. I mean the dealer STAYED ON 20 and 21 regardless if they were showing a face card or 5. Now im a solid blackjack player and when the dealer bust around 3 times and i bust around 12 times i find it odd. Everytime i get 20, i NEVER won once with 20 lol... Anyway is there any confirmation on if these @ssholes rig their bj?

Yea, it's amazing that everyone knows it's rigged but still play them.
In my case, I played online casino because I couldn't wait until the next day for more sports events. That's a big mistake, we need to control ourselves so that we put our money on real events rather than fkn rigged casino computer games.

Hey man , word of advise, dont bet black jack or big stack poker online.. My friend is a manager for tech, support for online gambling and the monitor the games for money amounts.. So you can win lots of pots for half the pots money but then they would rig it for anything of considerable amounts for black jack and poker..... its a fuking joke.. trust me....

of course it is fixed. They are not gonna let us win. If it were legit we'd get 20's at least equal to 'da house', but, of course, we don't. Freaks!

A different take on this topic ...
 
They don't have to rig the game b/c you have the ability to play 20x more hands an hour than you could in a land casino - one site used to actually have the disclaimer on their site ...
 
As a former dealer for poker and blackjack - the bad streaks can be ugly ... block the sites on your account unless you are disciplined in playing only occasionally and won't chase you money [a skill all of us have ... LOL]
 
I have cashed out some nice runs on a few occasions [several $3K+] and also given it back even faster. I just got up $2500 where I play now on BJ and blocked my acc't when I hit that #. GL.

At least 90% of them are rigged and the sportsbook.com casino is one of the worst.They let you win a little to get ur confidence up then when u start betting big they rig it hardcore, and the dealer will get blackjack like 5 times in a row.

Pinnacle is rigged I play baccarat there.  But Bet365 is legit, as they are regulated in the United Kingdom, bet365 Group Limited is one of the UK’s leading betting and gaming groups with over 700 employees handling over 500,000 bets each week to customers from over 120 different countries. bet365 offers one-account betting through its website and telebet centre. In addition, the group operates 59 licensed betting offices throughout the UK.
 
I do very well there, only downfall is they don't offer high money lines.  But they do have live betting for almost every game...

I actually do well playing Blackjack on Sportsbook.com.  i have won some nice coin consistently there.
 
However, Do not play Roulette at Sportsbook.  I have gotten killed there.
 
And Bookmaker Blackjack.....  I end up losing everytime when I play Blackjack on Bookmaker.  I have never tried Roulette with Bookmaker because I think Sportsbook Roulette has scarrred me for life.
 
I don't have an explanation ???

I know it's rigged and I still play it.  I've had some unvbelievable runs, +2500 in like 20 minutes.  But that goes twice as fast as it comes.  You talk about "easy come, easy go," that's what online blackjack is.

BetUS is the same in BJ...play 10 or 20 bucks at a time and you have little win streaks...up $200-$300....up the ante to $50 or more...AND DOWN SHE GOES.
 
I mean c'mon, NO WAY you lose 5, 6 or even 7 times in row in real life!! NO WAY!
 
So I'll bet $10, lose....bet $20, lose.....bet $30, lose....so I'll go $60 to get all that back....dealer has 20 or 21....WTF???
 
But you know what....I CAN'T STAY AWAY   
 
think I need help!!!!      LOL

These guys do not have anyone that regulates them. Would you really play a computer game that was not regulated.
 
Come on now.  Think a little.
 
Also AJ,
 
You are very right, there is no way you lose 7 or more hands in real life.
 
You will lose12-15 hands sometimes in a row.  Been there done that too many times.  Although after the 6th or 7th one I''m faking talking to someone else or "acting" like I'm trying to get a drink to skip the rest of the shoe.

Lippsman - I go to the Casinos in Louisiana 2-3 times a month, and I have never, EVER lost more than 6 or 7 times in a row! NEVER! And they still shuffle the cards by hand there as well. At least at the El Dorado. If you play it right, it won't happen.
 
I just have to have some restraint and STAY AWAY from on-line BJ.

With all of the above being said.....I don't know if online gaming is rigged or not.  I have seen some crazy black jack hands / roulette spins in real life as well.
 
I have seen black on the roulette wheel more than 10 times in a row.  I have seen red more than 10 times in a row.
 
I have seen the  number 29 come up 4 times in 10 spins before.  have seen another number (forgot which one) come up 3 times in 10 spins before.
 
In online gaming I have been on both sides of the draw before where you win all the smaller hands and then lose when you try and go big.  I have alos won plenty of big hands online as well. 
 
So I cannot say for sure it is rigged or not.  Maybe I just say that to make myself feel better when i lose .  Who knows  ???

Well I am sure I have played quite a bit more B-Jack than you have. Well,. it's a good chance I have.  Been playing for over 30 years and for over half of that it was really hardcore playing, when it was still a candy store out there.

Maybe the percentages just haven't caught up with you yet.  But I'm glad you haven't been beaten over the head with a very long losing streak.

What count are you using?

I don't use a count...if mean counting cards like the movie 21?
 
I just play the right way, make the dealer bust. You have 14, dealer is showing 6, you STAY....you have Ace, 5...dealer showing 5, you double. Etc.....
 
Only been playing, or gambling BJ for 10 yrs. So ya, you got me there. 
 
It's just best to stay away from on-line casino's
