Blackjack - Game of the Month

[flora1941]

Has anyone been having problems with Black Jack.

I am beginning to think there is either a big glitch in this game, or it just isn't an honest game. First, I had one round where I had 3 deuces, a 7 and a 5, this is a total of 18, I stood on 18, the dealer had a 10, 2 deuces and a 6. This was with the same deck. No new decks, and no reshuffling of the cards. How come the deck had 5 deuces? Another time I had a queen, a seven and a 4. Now when I went to school (and I will admit that i graduated from high school 53 years ago) that was a total of 21. Blackjack had my score at 20. Also, after a couple of hands at the beginning it popped up and told me I did not have enough tokens. I was betting 20 points per hand, and I have over 620,000 tokens.

I had to log out and sign back on to get to play again.

So, keep an eye on your game.

Yeah i notice that the dealer always gets more 21's than i do LOL... but i normally just bet 10 tokens per hand.

"How come the deck had 5 deuces?" In most casinos, the game is played with 5 or 6 decks so there are multiple of every card; I'm assuming this blackjack game is also played with multiple decks.

Thank you for that info. I have never, and never will be playing blackjack in a casino. I am not a good loser, especially when it is for real money. I like to see what I get for any monies that I spend. I feel that even in the charities that I give to, I am getting something in return. And I am giving it of my own free will, not losing it to a dealer.

It still doesn't explain my 21 and I only got credit for a score of 20. But, at least I was not playing for money, I was playing with tokens that were given to me and then it was to receive oodles. I finished all of my games the second day that we played. Today is Thursday, the 5th day of October and I have no games to play for the week, or month. So, I am eagerly awaiting another game for tomorrow or to find out what the weekend warrior game is.

When I'm at a real casino, Blackjack is a game I can play for a looooong time (usually). I may not win a whole bunch, but I don't lose a lot either. It's good to play for hours. I also love video poker.

Roulette is great at a casino if you can play with odds. It's been so long since I've played I've almost forgotten how. But I love dice too. Oops... was thinking of craps for some reason. No, roulette does not have great odds... but it's fun to play a spin or two on your lucky number. I got lucky once and made a bunch!

With Triple Play Blackjack, the dealer stays on soft 17 which is an Ace and 6. At the real casinos, the dealer hits on soft 17. What I am trying to say is Triple Play Blackjack needs to be a little more realistic with the dealer hitting on soft 17.
