    Joefool if you can go 48 hours without posting at SBR, I will give you 48 points to go play some Blackjack.

    (Saloon doesn't count, you can post up to 100 times/day in there)

    This is starting now.

    Joey, stay out of there. I've lost tens of thousands of points in there. I honestly don't even want to know the figure.

    Shit man, I haven't updated it, but It is going on about 20 days now. However many days it has been since I made the post, I STILL haven't won the first hand yet!
    And I've lost all my chips over & over.

    Wait, so every day you take 12 points and put them on a single hand of BJ and you've lost 20 times in a row?? Sorry I don't know if I can believe that. I could certainly believe that you lost them every day playing a series of hands (perhaps doubling your bet each time you win, trying to win a huge amount or lose it all every time etc.). But losing the very first hand every time twenty days in a row? Sorry but I'm not buying that.

    agree sounds crazy but given the software and some of the uncanny runs the dealer has, I would not be shocked tbh.

    Well thing is that if he's betting all his points, he might not be able to split when he really needs to which would lower his chances. That said, he can also not double down which increases his chances of winning the hand (though it's worse EV wise since he can't win double). But without going into too heavy math, whatever his restrictions are, surely his chances of winning a random hand can't be worse than say 40%.

    That would mean that the odds of losing twenty hands in a row are about 1 in 25000 - sorry if I have trouble believing that. As I said, I'm guessing he won some hands then kept betting (perhaps increasing his bet) and still wound up busting each day - that's very believable. But losing the first hand every single time for twenty days in a row? I still am not buying that.

    But I could be wrong, obviously a greater than zero chance is greater than zero! How about posting the hand history or whatever it is (I've seen people do that before)? Seeing it is much more likely to make me a believer!

    You should buy it. I just did it again tonight and it lost again, so add another day to it.
    It is absolutely incredible.

    Edit. I just looked at the hand history for this week and it only gives 3 days back to monday. But yes the first hand has always lost. Now I will have to say that I haven't bet the whole 12 these last few times because I knew it was going to lose, so I started betting $5 LOL.

    But YES the first hand has lost every time for almost 3 weeks now. My post said "almost" 20 days in a row.

    (I looked back and my original post was on the 16th, so it has been 18 days counting the one I just lost.
    Not 20 days. But 18 days is "almost" 20 days!)

    And if I log out and then log back in the next day to do it again. All your wild figures about 1 in 25000 chance of it happening go out the window. The chances and odds don't "pile up." Because it is a different day and a new game that I am playing. So the odds "reset" every day instead of "stacking up" like they would if you played 20 hands in a row.
    It's not "in a row" like playing and losing 20 straight hands in a row. it is one time per day. Not 20 hands in a row.
    To lose 20 straight in a row would be rare and wild.
    But to log in 20 straight days in a row and lose the first hand, the odds are the same every day, they don't "stack up".
    I've just happened to lose the 50% chance (or whatever BJ odds are) every day on the first hand for a long time now.

    In other words, you could lose your first blackjack bet every day for 20 straight days, and it wouldn't be such a big "astronomical thing."

    But if you lost 20 straight BJ bets in a row in one day, then your 1 in 25000 odds are correct.
    That would be hard to believe.

    I wish there was a way to go back and show you.

    No matter what happened after the first hand, it would show you that the first hand I played every day on that stupid single deck BJ has lost for me damn near to 20 days in a row now.

    I can't tell if you are trolling or not, but losing 20 bets in a row in a single day has the exact same odds as losing your first bet every day for 20 straight days in an online casino.
