    Online Black Jack on sportsbook sites

    Do any of you ever get bored while playing a poker tournament or watching a sporting event and find yourself wondering off to the one on one black jack tables. Do any of you ever wonder if these sites have rigged blackjack? I havent played black jack for 6 years until last night while i was playing in a poker tournament on sportsbook. I was at the final table of the tournament with 3 people left. It was a short handed 4000 20 dollar to enter rebuy tourney. I ended up placing second. Anyways, the reason i ask is because I made money on the black jack but I won 17- our of 18 hands then exited it. I only bet 5 dollars per hand if I were to raise hte bets each time I could have won a few grand. Anyhow, I believe it is rigged for losing. Does anyone agree? maybe the percentages are bossed up to a 6 percent difference?

    Why would they bother rigging it? All they need is "decisions, decisions, decisions" and they will grind you away.

    Well, the winning percentage is always in the favor of the house, so I don't think that there's logic to rig it. In the long run, the house always wins...

    you play your hand first and if you go over you automatically lose plus people stay when they should hit and vice versa=house edge 7 percent and up

    None of the Top sportsbooks used rigged software. Why should they as they have an edge built in which means they will always win long term anyway

    I would not play casino at lower rated sportbooks, as though most of them are probably fair you can never be certain of this

    the software in blackjack is fair. if you flat stake you will lose 1 or 2$ every 100$ played.
    If I am bored and want some action(lose money) I prefer Baccarat money seems to last longer and less house edge.

    Imo, online Casinos are always rigged. You may hear the odd person winning the jackpot in a slots game but that is very rare. STAY AWAY. Books LOVE Casino players.

    Why do you think they offer a bonus like 10% - 50% sports bonuses but can offer 200% + Casino bonuses??

    I can't PROVE an opinion but now that you mention 'proving it', can you prove that they are NOT rigged? You say that they are tested. we'll tested by whom? It's all we'll and good to say our software is tested by XYZ but do you really know for sure? Also, if it's 'tested' by a company, how do you know the testing is fair and legit?

    good point I cant prove it. But why rig a -ev game? casinos want you to lose slowly so you came back with more money thats why they have house edge of 2 or 3%.

    I've played BJ "live" and "online" many times and I can assure you that things happen playing BJ online that just do not happen in a live setting..

    if you feel like casino action, you shold go to the real, offline thing.

    for one, due to slower action, you will lose less money and feel the atmosphere, meet people.

    also, while not easy to prove it, it is easy for online casinos to rig their software if they want to = tilt extra percent or two in their favor.

    even on this forum, you can find some stories of people who found the way around it for a while and hit the operator... for each such person, there must be 100s, 1000s & more of people who were victims of the software. stay away.
