Shadow, go on the internet and search for ways to either win in Blackjack or Roullette.

Pick a strategy you like or can afford and stick with it, and don't change. Stop when you think you have won enough otherwise you will lose it all.

The fact is you cant use the regular world rules in lusternia blackjack. The are an infinite number of decks, meaning I could have a 20 with both queen of hearts, and my opponent can pull that queen of hearts out of his ass to match me.

You have to be willing to grind it out, play big, not let thing s bother when you do lose, and use the fact the game is rigged to your advantage. Since there are an infinite number of decks, the chances that any given hidden card will be a 10 are the same as in the real world, EXCEPT, that those odds dont go down because of other 10s showing. Thus you can make significantly stronger bets against a weaker hand, because there is a much more solid chance of the dealer busting out

Rhysus made 499, 999 gold one day. Vesar looked at his inventory to make sure he was telling the truth. I tried to get him to teach me how to play and I won around 36 lessons the first time. happy.gif

I used to be good at it, until i came to Lusty. And no, counting cards was a concept i had never heard of.

See, that's how you lost all the gold I lent you, Laquatus.

Kharne2005-11-01 09:44:02
So 200k is the biggest hit in one go?
Diamante2005-11-01 17:13:08
best win I've had so far was a random bet of 10k on roulette returning 350k as it landed on my number

best session I have had was walking in with 3k and walking out with a little over 400k, and taking 200 lessons and making roughly 2100
