I'll start by saying i do enjoy playing the game of Blackjack
I usually play hands of £20 or less which in comparison to my income is nominal
maybe once a month i'll stick1-200 in the online account and test my wits against the dealer
This morning i shoved my usual deposit in and got cleaned out within 15 mins , tried another deposit same result
Dealer was constantly pulling out high scores and taking the entire table out with him , it's not uncommon for both dealers and players to go on hot streaks but it gets very tiring when you can't win at all
I quickly got bored and pulled some back out but christ when i checked the banking i had done almost 250 of deposits in an hour ! no questions asked
i thought i don't know a profession on earth that charges 250 quid an hour for it's services maybe very very specialist solicitors ?
It also doesn't seem to matter what time of the day you log in , there will be tables open and players ready
its like a fantasy world but far from fantasy lol
Sometimes i go and read the conversation on the roulette wheel and there's even more lost souls over there
Think i'm going to have to ban myself , its just too dangerous and addictive even to dip your toes in
Hi Suckedin and Welcome
Please tell someone close and start the preparation for recovery and your born again moment
You are not really testing g your wits based on card fall....its already been calculated how many decks they have involved and the house wins long term......addicts make dopamine mistakes because lady luck in your head is generally nonsense compared with algorithms of card calculation. Its random so in no way an income scheme
You've seen the results of a gambling session and it's not pleasant as you know
The delusion starts when seeking the gambling drug. Ask yourself what money means to you because I could never afford to throw any amount away relative to my income
Do you like being short changed by say £20 because gambling is the false superstition that its going to go your way
Blackjack is no soft game and like other forms of gambling it's highly addictive. Another reality check for you is some people have lost millions on blackjack relative to their income....millions!!
They don't set up casino games to give you an easy life! The croupier and the owner are not risking important money so it's not even a fair risk challenge....do you understand? Some croupiers are on minimum wage but they go home earning. The owner doesn't care about your activity unless they feel you can count cards and they will refuse your bet if too high so.......no real risk to them
All the risk is really with you because you are up against a large hedge fund spreading their operation.
Gambling is a vice and a mugs game
You don't need it in your life but you need to learn about the power of gambling addiction and how to recover
Best wishes for a gamble free life
I read a book one time about Blackjack. A mathatician did a statistical analysis. Because of the house edge, it is possible to win if you just play a few hands and wait until you win and then stop. BUT, if you play over and over like 30 minutes or an hour and just keep playing hand after hand, the odds are that 98% of the time you will end up losing your money. Only 2% of players who play for an hour can come out on top and leave the casino with more money than they started with. Makes you stop and think. It is because the house edge is very small but when you multiply it by a large number of hands played then the house edge becomes big indeed! better to just not play.
It has been playing on my mind all night , and today i stuck another 100 in to try and turn my luck around
Safe to say i was humbled , i have now banned both my accounts
I told one dealer i will ban for 5 years too make sure the casino loses for once….. , i don’t think they saw the funny side and removed my chat ability lol
They don’t seem to like any kind of despondency on the online tables
I can see how it’s easy to completely lose all sense of time and money on these sites , i mean i could sit on my phone all night depositing trying to chase my losses
i can imagine it’s entirely possible to lose thousands in a day
Think i’ve had my fingers burnt enough now ,
quiet weekend in the house spent reflecting for me.
@suckedin yes your lucky your only loosing £100 give up now you dont want a full blown addiction. BELIEVE ME.
