    The blackjack at Betjamaica is the most difficult I've seen

    I got nothing but 15s and 16s and of course if I get 20 then the dealer gets 20 or 21. I have never had this much difficulty at online blackjack.

    I have had some interesting BJ play at both thegreek and BetJamaica (same family of books obv). I have ran into sessions just like you betting $5.00 a hand and losing $80.00. The problem I experienced most was being baited into doubling... 3-4 hands in a row of 13-16 and busting or getting sucked out on.. then I get dealt a hand you have to split (8's against a 6) and throw in 2 double downs... which usually lead to 14 and 15 anyways... dealer pops 17 and I am toast.

    I will say that I have had other sessions where I will hit the casino and win a quick 50-200.00 martingale betting... obviously everyone's experience is different.. far from rigged and not the worst online either. I think the worst or "tightest feel" distinction would have to go to justbet.

    I just bet the $1 at a time and if I feel really good about it I put it all on the line. That can make you or break you but holy crap these hands are just killer. I tried Double Exposure where you can see both of the dealer's cards and that was even worse. Overall I lost $20 cause I only bet $1 at a time since I know winning is hard.

    Their AI on their blackjack is superior to any other.

    Betjam has or had their casino set to the lowest possible payout percentage possible. Compare the payouts for a royal in let it ride compared to the SBR casino. then compare it to some of the payout tables from 5dimes. It's a joke if you ask me.

    That's what I'm saying. I have great luck with the blackjack on SBR. The one at sportsbook.com is also pretty generous.

    Are you guys debating the fairness of these games?

    BJ (when fair) is not like video poker where you can pre-program the payout %. The only things that change the house edge in a FAIR BJ game are the rules (surrender, doubling after slitting, re-splitting A's, etc.)

    If a site can program their BJ games in terms of how often bad starting hands are dealt to the players, you should stay far far away.

    NOTE: As it should be clear, my experience is in live blackjack, not online.

    I will just give an example on sportsbook.com I just went from $30 in blackjack to $88 in a few hands. I get blackjack and good hands all the time.

    I'm sure these guys can set the difficulty on their casino games and that's what I've experienced at betjamaica.

    So, let's recap:

    You get "blackjack and good hands all the time" at sportsbook.com
    You get "nothing but 15s and 16s and of course if [you] get 20 then the dealer gets 20 or 21" at betjamaica.
    You also state "I just bet the $1 at a time and if I feel really good about it I put it all on the line."

    I already took it to $300 at sportsbook.

    Betjam will give you maybe 1 good hand out of 10.

    since i'm somehow mentioned in this thread (not sure whats going on there), i will join in. I called Scotty about 2 years ago and asked him to please audit my bj play. I told him he would notice that the dealer almost never loses when his upcard is a 4, 5, or 6. Its absolutely amazing(read rigged). Scotty looked at my casino play, assured me it was honest, and then put $500 cash in my account.
    Piece it together, it doesn't take a genius.
    I would recommend never playing BJ at bet jamaica. I have had some very good runs playing black jack at You wager (who i now hate for their incessant calls and their new casino software sucks), bodog, and some very large wins at betonline. I believe most online casinos are much more difficult to beat than brick and mortar casinos, and should probably be avoided.

    You get ripped off at everybook playing blackjack. There is just no way to tell that your getting a fair shake. Staying away is the only option.

    I have had the casino auction disabled for quite some time. Not worth the temptation. I never had a good experience with any online casino so have stayed away.

    It is rigged there is no question about it. I have lost tens of thousands over the years playing that software at different sites. I know better than to play that online blackjack but I am a compulsive gambler and at 4am there are no games to bet on. In fact I have lost about 2500 in the past week doing just that. Not at Jamaica but at a site that uses the same software. I absolutely kill sports gambling I am very good. But I give it all back in the casino. Every time, and I never plan to.

    OK, I think I know what happened. I was constructing the quote, and put the word "you" inside brackets. Apparently that displays the name of the reader.

    [you] [ you ]
