Title: Live Bitcoin blackjack casinos with single deck?
Post by: tyz on February 03, 2017, 05:39:50 PM
I am looking for a Bitcoin blackjack live casino which uses single decks only? It is fine if cards get mixed after 50% of all cards played.
I tried some live casinos with multiple decks but I am used to play with single decks in landcasinos.

Lol get real man. No online casino is going to offer a single deck live dealer game for obvious reasons.

What is the obvious reason? I am a blackjack fan, but I can't understand the obvious reason. Do you mean the lowest house edge or high variance? Actually one deck BJ is the lowest house edge casino game, and high variance makes the game more luck-dependent.

I've never played online live blackjack before but I think the obvious that Trayber meant would be card counting on a black jack single deck.  It will be too easy to win because you can just write down all the cards and cheat.

Thanks for enlightening me, you are right. Although counting card is difficult in casinos, most casinos use 8 decks or 6 decks in BJ, and big casinos use reshuffle machine in every hand. The reshuffle machine is expensive, people can still try to count cards in small casinos. Counting card is profitable if the some cards(after 5% cards dealt, we can sit and bet in real casino) are dealt.

1 deck blackjack is only suitable online and not multi-player game in real casino, it reshuffles every time. Trayber is correct.

I know the obvious reason. That is why I posted that shuffling the cards after 50% played cards is fine. Counting cards does not make much sense on these conditions. I have other reasons searching for a casino offering the required blackjack gambling characteristics.

If one table can be played with many players, counting card is possible, the latter deal players have the counting chance, because they play in one deck, can't shuffle like in PC version, PC version is different from live version.

You will know the remaining cards if its a single deck . For ex:
You get A of hearts and K of hearts at first then you know that both of that are out and only 3 more cards of 10 value is remaining right? No casino will offer single deck according to me . Card counting becomes too easy in this case.

Then there will be no difference in 8 decks and 1 deck right?

I don't think it is possible at all to find a live blackjack casino that uses a single deck because many people already knew the card counting tricks from the movies 21. Even with 4 decks, it is still possible to do card counting, so mostly casino uses 6 to 8 decks mostly with a green card sliding into the middle and reshuffle when the green card is reached.

This is to prevent card counting from the players

Actually, yes! However I want to try something I figured out. No idea if it really works but I want to figure it out. Counting cards is very well-known so it does not make sense to ride a horse that is actually dead.

No such thing mate. :-\
How are the casinos going to win almost all the time with only one deck? ;)
Oh.. i forgot with their pixelation process to show you the players the wrong cards that they actually are.
That's how! :D
