Lucky is right. Our blackjack dealer cheats. So does our roulette spinner.
Joli2005-11-02 05:18:23
it seems like you just keep getting the same numbers a lot of the time.

It's not that hard, Vix. tongue.gif
Vix2005-11-02 05:20:19
But I don't even know the rules. sad.gif

And can't be bothered to read them.

Narsrim2005-11-02 05:32:13
Not being a gambler, I decided to give it a try yesterday. I won 20k.

Seems like Blackjack is luckier than Roulette... Bet about four times, lost three times. (On the 1:1 odds)
Narsrim2005-11-02 05:35:08
Well, there is a certain level of skill involved in Blackjack where as Roulette is just random. I lost 20 times in a row once betting on black in Aetolia. I was very very upset.
Vix2005-11-02 05:35:47
I'm so unlucky. sad.gif

I haven't played in the game yet, but I have IRL. My grandmother told me a few tips, that I can't really remember. I think: The dealer will always hit a 16. You shouldn't hit a 17 and always double down if your first card is an Ace.

Other than that, I got nothing.
Joli2005-11-02 05:55:19
yeah, I always stand on 17 and lose, but if I hit I lose too.. sad.gif

You bet 10000 sovereigns on 19 (black), eliciting a wry grin and a wink from Goldie the
Leprechaun.
3408h, 4524m, 3912e, 10p exk-

Goldie the Leprechaun says, "No more bets!" and gives the wheel a good spin. The
ball begins to smoothly spin around the wheel.
3408h, 4524m, 3912e, 10p exk-

The ball starts to bounce around wildly on the wheel, giving you no idea where
it will stop.
3408h, 4524m, 3912e, 10p exk-

The ball finally settles down on 19 (black).
Goldie the Leprechaun exclaims to you, "We have a winner! You've won 350000 gold!" He returns the stakes for your winning bets, and hands you your winnings.

Might not want to double if the dealer has a 7,8,9, or 10 showing though, because if the card you get is 6 or less, you're in trouble tongue.gif. Eleven is the best number to start with thats not above 18 or 19, because 10 is the most likely number to come up. I've spent so much time playing blackjack, I'm just bad at the betting. sad.gif
Acrune2005-11-02 13:37:19
And curse you all for getting me addicted to blackjack again mad.gif

I've given up betting lessons. It's somewhat less painful to lose gold.
