    If this software on sportsbook sites is rigged, why doesnt someone say something?
    I know sportsbook owners wont admit anything, but I;m sure SBR could uncover something.... but then I guess you guys might make your sponsors mad.

    It's like your right hand smacking your left hand. You can do it but it's dumb.

        Surprise! Surprise!

        Somebody would blow a whistle if there was a situation to whistle about.

          they are rigged as much as the casinos based on land are. The basic math says the house has the edge and the player will lose. When people play heads up BJ and blow through a dime so quick of course it's rigged. But playing 6 handed in a casino takes a lot longer than playing heads up. It's all rigged.... live, on line, on a cruise ship. Get over it.

            Most of them tell you they hold a certain percentage..

            usually a little less than 2%.

            Bottom line online or Vegas your gonna lose in the casinos...

            Your only chance is card counting and the days of the MIT vrew are long gone...You can count, play basic its way too hard to hide it and the casinos will show u the door and take your comps as well.

            If you dont like to lose dont play in the casinos whether its online or walk in

            Personally, I enjoy going out, drinking and playing. I go into it expecting to lose so theres no misconception or dissapoint/

              Why would anyone play an online game that is not regulated?

              People are idiots that do !!!

                I got told I was counting cards at a local casino.

                Btw I'm the worst BJ player in the world. So having them threaten me about counting cards was pretty funny. Never gone back though. To this day I don't know whats higher. Clubs/spades/hearts/diamonds. /shrug

                  There are unregulated live games too. There are cruise ships that leave from the coast, go into international waters you gamble then come back. I asked on one of them who regulates it and the answer? Sun Cruz vacations. Self regulating in the USA. Imagine that, but they pay taxes to the US government and employ US citizens, so it must be all good.

                    i dontgive a shiit if they are or aren't rigged, I trust no one that I can't see. I like to feel the chips, see the dealer shuffle, try an avoid a mid-shoe entry on a hot shoe. Even with all that the odds are hard, So forgive me if I dont trust a on line poker program thats controlled by who knows who and made by I dont know that is supposed to be legit, as they say in Texas "EL PASSO"

                      This came from the Sportsbooknews email I received.. I don't know if it is true but maybe?

                      DGS Casinos again we warn our casino plyers to avoid any DGS casinos, yet some of you still don't learn. It seems that the backend can be easily manipulated by sportsbook operators to give the house extreme unfair advantages. If you are currently playing in a sportsbook's casino, find out what software they are using. If they tell you DGS or Digital GAming Solutions, avoid at all costs. We recommend any casino with Playtech software

                        It seems like the online casinos lack the randomness a real casino offers. The random number generators will never seem random enough when you are playing online. It also seems like there are more big money jackpots online.

                          A computer is not capable of generating a random number.

                            that is correct...they can only generate psuedo random numbers with similar distribution.

                              I agree.

                              I'm not big on casino games , but I prefer playing poker when I can see the dealer and other players sitting at a table with me.

                                Zilla, I thought the same thing until I had the obvious pointed out to me. They have the edge !!! But I will toss in this website that explains psuedo random numbers just for the heck of it. http://www.onlinecasinopress.co.uk/random-numbers.html
