Not sure if anyone is interested. But I was bored today, and recorded the outcome of 1145 hands. I knew I'd lose the balance before I rolled it over and figured I'd do an experiment, since everyone says this stuff is rigged. Played basic black jack strategy. Small sample size, but did show a houses edge on top of the normal house edge based on odds aone.
I won 42.8%
I lost 49.5%
Pushed 7.8%
Not too far from expected value(still edge to house):
win 43.3%
loss 47.9%
push 8.8%
When I doubled I should have won around 61-62% of the time. I won 55% (21/38). Nothing out of ordinary but still edge to house.
I did notice chance of winning consecutive hands decreased. The player who won prior hand had a 47% chance of winning the next hand vs 53% (ignoring ties). And that actually stayed very consistent. If you won 2 hands ina row you had a 46.9% of winning the 3rd, and 3 hands in a row 47.6% winning the fourth. Obviously this should be even. I'm taking to account both player and dealer.
Not sure how this would benefit player or dealer but was statistically significant enough to mention, and hard to write off that the software isn't manipulated in some way.
The grouping of Blackjacks was something I noticed. Blackjacks were dealt to player or dealer 11.5% of hands. Should have been closer to around 9%. BUT the oddest thing was if a blackjack was dealt in the prior hand the chances of another blackjack in the next hand were almost double to around 17%.
Here is where it gets interesting. The streaks the dealer went on.
The dealer had winning streaks of 7(x4),8,9,10,14. to my 6,7.
so in approx 1,000 hands dealer hand 4 streaks with odds of 1 in a 100, 1 streak 1 in 200, 1 streak 1 in 400, 1 streak 1 in 800 and a streak 1 in 10,000.
I noticed these streak were the ones where most of my balance was assumed.
Again nothing overwhelming, but does show that the dealer is getting better cards than what a random deck would give you.
I taught statistics and there is enough evidence in just 1200 deals here to see that there is a high likelihood of these cards not being randomly dealt.
It's just my personal opinion that they are slightly tweaked in the houses favor. AND I was also using bonus money, so I would imagine it might be tweaked a little more when you are playing real money.
My advice is to not play real money in online casinos!
