Posted by TonyClifton: Blackjack is one of the few online casino games that can actually return a Player's Advantage when played with accurate strategy.
This is NOT true.
Boss medias single deck blackjack has disapeared. And all other versions have a house edge. Without a bonus blackjack is -ev.

there is a card counting strategy that can give you a very small advantage and it wont work online as far as i can say (and if they catch you doing it in the casino you might be asked to leave more or less kindly...). this said i strongly agree with shokaku!

The only blackjack you can win at is that one that allows you to bet 0,1$ so you can make some progression in betting without risking your dome, If your not playing this inda blackjack, be sure that you're gonna lose everything eventually so: STOP!

i really love poker and online poker ,but sorry guys even the best of you cant deny it,the poker boom took gambling issues to another level. really stay away from those crappy black jack games,you cant beat it. play poker and thats it,no magic roulette strategy no bogus black jack s**t,no slots. you cant beat them,in fact why would they let you beat them? its a casino they want your money , thats all. the only reason you can play poker in a casino is the rake. remember,in casino games you are the opponent of the casino,its like david against golliath.in poker you are playing against othe rguys that arent affiliated with the casino,they get rake and then they are happy,they dont care if you win or lose in poker,but in casino games such as black jack all they want is make you lose
so enjoy poker and dont push it too far its not worth giving up anything for this game gl
------------ i know a lot about gambling issues because my dad was a complete lunatic back in the days,won 16 k in one night and blew 30 k the next night.dont let lucky days make you think you can beat them.if you won a big tourney and you think you need to gamble then at least f**king leave those tables after your first decent win. if those games break you , nobody gives a f**k about you ,and they know that it is very addictive,not only do they know they use the addiction for their advantage,the best thing that can happen to them is a rich gambling addict.

just for the record: poker can be very addicting too and there are sane ways to play craps or blackjack or slotmachines or whatever. this said, i can again strongly agree with the poster before me. listen to this guy!

Posted by Dupa: I know I'm doing exactly what the online poker sites want-- winning money and then losing it all to their blackjack table. I'm a good enough poker player to make money and while my income is still far above debt, ever since poker sites have promoted blackjack alongside poker, I've been making less and less.
Hell, I've been going broke quite a bit. Luckily none of it has been with my own deposits so far but it still hurts. Obviously I know that all I need is a bit of self-control to stay away from a game that I'm losing money on, but I was wondering if there was any way to block blackjack clients. Or are they completely attached to the poker programs?
I feel I need something like that to sway me away for a bit. If not that, I wouldn't mind knowing that some guy named Vinny will come and break my legs if I go broke with my bankroll. I don't feel I would without blackjack.
If u are good at poker and wins you need to stop playing the rigged blackjack. Its almost impossible to win.
Make urself a favour and you will win more money with the BJ.
