Congrats InterCasino, you got me again

[troyer]

I just played my June bonus there. Deposited $100 and recieved $100. Cashed out $290. Was at $330 at one point but decided to gamble a little, after all that s what we are right? hehe. sorry to hear about your luck guys, i have been there with other online casinos.

Well I cashed out the June bonus at $228, but it's pretty tragic. I was flat betting $4, rather than $5 (thinking an extra bet or two might make all the difference knowing how these casinos have a way of going horribly wrong on you). I was up to about $300 for ages, and then in the last 100 hands dropped right back to where I'd started. If I'd been betting $5 I never would've played those last 100 hands. :cry: Damnedable cards.

In case anyone's interested I took a log again:

Wins: 190, 29 DD
Losses: 231, 18 DD
BJ: 34 won, 25 lost, 2 push.

Assuming you started with a deposit of $100 and a bonus of $100 you should have ended your session with about $40 less than you did. That doesn't sound too tragic.

Gregory, I hear what your saying. I just loaded up on the monthly and this is what the dealer had on the first 20 hands. 13,BJ,21,BJ,18,21,19,19,BJ,10,17,21,BJ,20,20,BJ,19,BJ,19,20. Then I got the hech out of there before I broke something. Needless to say I did not win many hands. Only 2, 1 against the 17 with a double down and 1 against a 19. Dealer had 6 BJ's over 20 hands I had none. Not what I would call a normal game. I know somebody will get on here and say thats just a run of bad luck and it all evens out and I will have a run like that in my favor, yada,yada,yada. But I can tell you after playing well over 100,000 hands I have never had any thing that resembled that in my favor. Not even close.:whip:
Well, my rants over.

and it was a good rant!
I have sworn off the online bonus hunting since the session that prompted me to start this thread. A month later and I haven't really changed my mind much on the subject. In retrospect I wish I had recorded my hands and the results to add some validity to my own rant.
If people can make money (or even just break even) at Intercasino then more power to you. I'm not one of them ... even when I flat bet and have an extra hundred bonus to start with.

No, I can't really complain, but in the circumstances it didn't seem quite so favourable.

Of course if I were a paranoid man, I could always say if I'd been betting $5 the losing streak probably would've come 100 hands earlier anyway, in line with the way these patterns seem to occur.
