    11 minutes of fast play was enough for me to say not worth the effort. Sorry SBR. You run many great promotions. This Black Jack was not among the top.
    -
    I think if I would have known that 4-1 BJ meant paying 4 to 1 odds for a bJ, I might have played longer. I just figured there was 4 other players and me in a single deck game, so I assumed it was just like zoom poker and moved to the next hand when I was done with my decision. That 4-1 BJ could have been marketed a little better.
    -
    Also, another reason I gave up after 11 minutes. I kept receiving waiting for server messages every three hands. After 90 hands and 30 waiting for server messages, well, you get the picture.
    -
    And the last reason I stopped playing is I figure if I want to place top 20, all I needed to do was be ahead. After starting with 1000 and dropping to 982, when I got to 1001, I was done.

    I highly doubt that's true. 4-1 blackjack means you have pretty much a guaranteed +EV as long as you play enough hands (without throwing them away doubling on an 18, etc, of course)

    I bought insurance everytime and won at least 80% of the time. I just figured that the software was being "prepped" for alot of blackjacks. The dealer must have had BJ about 20 times. I had it maybe 10 times but two of those times I was TIED by a dealer BJ!


    I wish that I had stopped when I was up +140, but not even sure where I actually finished since I was still playing after 9pm and lost like 12 hands in a row. I think that I ended at around 115 at 9pm

    I assume you need at least 110 to crack the top 20.

    mjag21,

    TOP 10????

    You just won second and won $1500!



    Feel free to share the wealth!




    For some reason, I actually thought that 100 points would have been a good score

    GUARANTEED 2nd!


    I mean I finished high enough to knock off other contenders from passing your up as did others according to what they posted. At worst, you get third, but I dont see how anyone will beat you out of 2nd

    Wish I coulda finished a bit higher - but glad to win something! Kind of disappointing that I ran so horribly in the Blackjack, I probably played more hands than most, but how well you run is a big factor too. Ohh well, thanks SBR for another nice contest - always look forward to the next one!

    Yep Lol, got that right, but yeah I regret just randomly picking my hoop picks taking the contest for a joke not knowing I would do pretty good in poker. Didn't even do blackjack cause I know it wouldn't have had any affect on my position. Good pullout though mike. Make sure you buy yourself a fukkin pie from papa johns or dominos tomorrow.

    ^^ i did the same with hoops, i was treading water so just took all favs/overs on the board a couple days and ended up at the bottom. Luckily i had some points on poker even without cashing in the big one.

    And blackjack i got 3rd by one point! Lolol
