William Hill Blackjack
Sound advice. Unfortunately I didnt listen to it and have just lost (I mean been robbed of) 450 quid. Managed to get 10 quid up on roullete then switched to blackjack. A crazy few minutes followed when absolutely nothing I could do would saved me. Again, sorry to appear a hard done by loser but THIS IS NOT BAD LUCK! It is impossible to continually get either crap hands while the machine gets good ones or get good ones and the machine beats you with either 21 or blackjack. I do not believe this is possible from a machine that claims to be random. It is not random! Otherwise it would not continually take the piss as it does. This is a scandal!bigv038 wrote:DON'T PLAY THEM THEN!

Why not write record a log on what comes out each time and then you have some evidence one way or the other.
Go and buy yourself a nice lunch instead
You will feel so good about yourself that you didnt give your money away and you treated yourself .
Try it people ..... if you get the urge to gamble and you know deep down its a problem... go and spend the money on something for you or a loved one.
(or even me if you like !)
I promise you will feel so good that you did something positive.
This is not aimed at people who play full time or whatever and have control over what they do , but at a few who may be slipping into trouble....
Trust me its shit Ive been there and if anyone wants a chat about it just PM me.

I'm going to try this after next pay day - too late this month. I blew 500 quid at a Coral FOBT in about 20 mins. Most I was up was 15.Mr Bubbles wrote:Sound advice.petera wrote:Better idea........orinoko wrote: OK its nearly lunchtime - I'm going to the bookies to put 20 quid on red - I wonder whats going to happen lol

Its not just losing serious dosh that ranks, its the shear disbelief that I lose all of the time. If they are really random then why dont I win occasionally?? In my (now considerable) experience its extremely difficult to win say 20 but very easy to lose big time.
To illustrate this, only today I had 160 quid in my pocket now I have 60 - the reason? About 11 games of blackjack. I had struggled to win 15 on roulette then tried BJ to try and make it 20 in total then I would pull out (I've noticed in the past that changing games while up in another is a recipe to kiss goodbye to everything). In the 11 games I won one. The machine pulled in 3 BJ's, a 21 when I had 19, a 20 when I had 20 and 19, a 19 when I had 17. I bust twice when twisting and lost once sticking on less than 17. The only time I got dealt a good hand (20) the machine equaled it.Even when I won a game I wasnt dealt a good hand initially. The banker gets good hands almost all of the time. IS IT JUST ME THAT SEES A PATTERN HERE??
Sore loser? Very bad luck? Not when it happens every time please!!
