Because, there’s suspicion the ‘fix’ is tied to size of the bet, I bet the maximum $5K per hand, doubling and splitting only as prescribed by the basic strategy. I never bet insurance or took even money for blackjack. I did not bet hunches, split tens or fives, hit seventeen use any of the other crazy things I have seen some players try in this game. For background, I hold a PhD in Aerospace Science, and am an experienced blackjack player with many hours (as well as win/loss streaks) in casinos in the US as well as overseas.įor the experiment, I played Stage 2 for 2,007 hands using the basic strategy only. I thought I would run a very basic test to find out for myself if it were true or not. Good book too.There are several posts here and in reviews on Google Play alluding to this game being rigged. Watch the movie '21' (2008), it's about an MIT team that makes millions counting.

Buying insurance statistically a losing play, unless you're counting. The best counters would even buy insurance based on their info. Figuring out how many big cards are left.

If you see a streak of a lot of low cards, bet more on the next hand, the more Tens, Aces and Faces are left in the deck it can give the player a up to a 3% edge. I think the only thing you can do in this type of blackjack on PSVR. Playing bad though (most do) can give the casino, easily, a 13%+ edge. If you play enough hands, you will lose all your money before the house loses their's.Įven if you play perfect strategy, you'll lose about 2% more hands than you'll win. But if you are making too much money and suspected of counting they'll ask you to leave, their right to impose a trespassing charge if they want. Some are offering single and double deck still. But you can't in this, and in real life, lots of casinos have go to the automatic shufflers so that 6 deck shoes can't be counted after 2 or 3 decks worth. The only way to overcome blackjack dealer's edge is to count cards. Blackjack is made to be rigged!! It's made so the dealer wins most of the time.
