    Depends on how many "virtual decks" you're playing with. Traditional casino shoes hold 5 decks. SO you have a 20 out of 260 chance (1/13).

    Of course, this is if we assume there are 5 decks.

    Additionally, in Vegas and AC there are now those "progressive shuffler" machines that play the discard pile back into the shoe. This re-adds your 7's back to the mix.

    Card counters hate the progressive shufflers.

    I assume this is a one deck non progressive because I have never been dealt a dup card.

    So one deck nonprogressive and we still the get the crud beat out of us.

    Ive seen all of the above happen, 5 blackjacks in a row, two in a row not uncommon. Getting 21 with a single digit show card, beating by ties or one point constantly. A few months ago I had 18 thousand in my account, it dropped to around 11 and I am finally on my way back up, there for a long time that SOB was chewing my butt like it was juicy fruit.

    It actually sounds like you're doing pretty well! I lost 16k in a hour to the cheating swine last week.

    I like Casinos, but they don't like me. When I play my game and strategy and its all legal and simple, I eventually get booted out! Its only a matter of time when the Casinos are loosing money to me

    Hang with the big rollers and keep knocking down those free drinks!

    Cheers!
