Tried the trainer, had fun playing 25 rounds ended up with 60% accuracy.
I also like the small breakdown at the end then the trainer points out the rounds where you struggle against, in my case it was 13 and 14 vs 10. Cheers, glad you enjoyed it. The trainer doesn't have card counting.
The Card Counting Drill is accessible from the main menu within the game (visible when you first open it). It is just below the Basic Strategy Drill. |

Does your Blackjack Trainer have a card counting tutorial for beginners or OP just forgot to mention about it, I want to learn about card counting and how to do it even though I don't gamble that much anymore, it's a pretty cool trick to do when you are with your friends.
A beginner should have no trouble using our card counting drill, though we would advice moving on to card counting after you are familiar with all the basics of the game. |

Bojoko has developed a new Blackjack trainer, available both on our website and in app stores. The trainer is, of course, free and with no in-game purchases. I looked at your training page on how to play Blackjack. Training on Blackjack can be found easily everywhere, but your summary is different from the usual explanation, for that at the end of your writing it says: Did you find this page helpful?
My answer is certainly very useful for Blackjack game addicts.
I realize that currently the Blackjack game is a game that is still in demand and popular in the world, besides someone having fun playing Poker cards, Baccarat etc., they can also make money online. Of course there are various variations of blackjack betting with different rules for each region, in the blackjack training page you wrote, explain in detail the pictures and points that must be considered before placing a blackjack bet, for me your article is good enough to understand. Unfortunately, I'm still empty (sMerit), hopefully someone can give you appreciation for your efforts, good luck with other things about gambling bets.Thank you so much, wonderful to hear. |

Hi Blackjack lovers! Bojoko has developed a new Blackjack trainer, available both on our website and in app stores. The trainer is, of course, free and with no in-game purchases. What separates it from other Blackjack trainers is that it combines the standard free demo play, with a basic strategy drill - which gives feedback on every move you make - as well as a card counting drill for more experienced players. The goal of the trainer is to help all Blackjack players not just learn the game, but to maximize their odds to the furthest extent possible. We'd love to hear if any of you have tried our Blackjack trainer already and what you thought. |

A friend of mine works as a dealer in a casino and it seems that he enjoys his job regardless of the working hour. He said that you'll get to see different people in the casino and the pay is satisfying, not to mention the tip you get daily from different players.
This is what we hear as well. Most of the people say they enjoy their work, but I suppose as in every industry there are companies that are not treatin their workers properly, as we heard from previous comments. |

I can tell you my own version that doesn't involve anything luxurious or fancy at all.
You wake up at the crack of dawn before even sunlight is a thing, you are basically waking up at a late night hour instead of early morning hour (usually around 04:45 or 05:00 but depending on shit it could become 06:00 so that's better) then you work no matter how sick you are, I had high fever one day and went to ER before work and get some shots done and had vial plucked to me for vitamins and medicine etc and went to work anyway afterwards to work on 13 hour shift.
You get yelled by your boss for even standing still, not even a joke, you have to be in constant movement and constantly smiling so forth so if you are just standing there with your resting face (not even upset or sad face, just your regular face, not like we all smile on default) you get yelled at. Glad I am not in that world anymore.
Can I ask you what you were doing? Seems really bad. First of all who needs to go to work if they are sick and especially after going to the hospital as well? |

Yeah, playing in online casinos and playing slots is really only based on luck. All the games have a fixed return rate and in the long run they will always make a fixed amount of profit and give a fixed amount of winnings for the players. No skill there.
Sports, horse racing and poker are different as there is a possibility of a distortion in probabilities. For example football betting, a bookmaker thinks a team has 50% probability of winning but you are saying different, odds and the price is different and if you are constantly right with your probability estimates, you will make money.

There are many in this forum but I doubt they'd be willing to reveal who they are.
I dont think that those guys need to reveal who they are, a simple "Yes I am and that is my experience ..." is enough, they dont even have to bring the name of the company they are working for, to the table. I am not working in the gambling industry but a very good friend of mine does as a back end developer. We often talk about his job and the growth of the company so I can definitly confirm what you are saying. Online casinos are currently exploding both in terms of online users and amount wagered and there is no end in sight. On the other hand retail casinos seem to suffer from this development, large casinos here in my country struggle, some smaller ones had to close their business recently. Yeah no need to reveal anything, just to share experiences and views how this industry is shaping up. Brind and mortar casinos surely feel it, when online gaming is getting bigger. I think this is healthy though as everything is moving to internet, not only gambling. Think it will lead the few biggest ones alive and well in the retail casino sector. |

Guys I'm not sure if you read my post. I'm sharing an interesting article by Bojoko and just starting discussion around the topic. I'm not looking for jobs or anything with this. If anyone here has an input on this topic it would be great to have a conversation about it for everyone to see.

Article has great insight about iGaming industry, how it's growing and what kind of opportunities there are nowadays. Interesting interviews with industry insiders and results of a salary survey.

What are your experiences and how do you see gambling industry as a workplace today and in the future? The online gambling sector is highly competitive and cash rich so companies can afford to spend money on ensuring their employees are well looked after and happy. - Daniel Fryar, Jobsfactor.co.uk READ THE ARTICLE HERE: https://bojoko.com/stories/igaming-jobs/ |

The are a few main things what you need in order to become profitable in sports betting.
1) Understanding and calculating probabilities
2) Knowing the market psychology
3) Patience
I think these 3 things are VITAL in order to become profitable. First thing is that you need to be able to give a probability for an outcome. If you can't make a suggested probability, you don't know if there is value in the odds or not. Every bet you make needs to have a positive expected value. If you can make probabilities and bet with positive EV, in the long term you will win. It's the same with stocks, options or whatever financial instrument. This is the reason why for example online casinos are not profitable for the players in the long run. It can be short term if you get lucky, but long term not.
You also need to understand how the market can swing and how the masses act. Majority of people will just bet for the fun of it and always bet on their favourite team. Big favourites and big brand teams like FC Barcelona or Manchester United are almost always minus EV. People like these teams and overrate them. More often it is more profitable to bet agains these teams. It is the same phenomenon with over/under betting. Everyone likes to see a lot of goals and it is not fun to see boring games with no goals. People will be for more goals and this will raise the odds for unders. Value increases, because the probability hasn't changed.
Patience is key. If you can't handle your bankroll and be patiet with your bets, you will go bust in no time. Be patient with your stakes, don't ever overstake or go outside your initial plan.

It is not as massive as it is in the internet but some of the major casinos in the world happens to accept bitcoin.Bitcoin is a digital currency and as such finds most of its use in a digital form.Online casinos are opening up very often and they all have one major thing in common,they use and accepts bitcoin and other crypto currencies for their main operation.This will not change,bitcoin will always prevail in the digital form most of the time in casinos.
Um no, not all of online casinos have this major thing in common,,, in fact I would say that crypto/bitcoin casinos are still the minority when it comes to online gambling. Most of the online betting ads are still all about fiat/bank/credit card or maybe maximum paypal. Bitcoin and crypto casinos of course appear to us all the time because our google catches our search habits. This is true. iGaming industry is still heavily dominated by "normal" online casinos which are licenced and regulated. Bitcoin casinos don't need this, but the amount of bitcoin casinos is way less than conventional fiat currency online casinos. It is still early days for cryptocurrencies. People and I mean a lot of people globally don't know anything about cryptos and it hasn't made the break yet to the masses. This is why cryptocurrencies are not used in casinos either or anywhere else. It will remain same before the monetary fiat system changes or collapses or something else drastic happens. Of course bitcoin use will grow, but to be a major payment method in peoples lives will still take a lot of time. In developing countries this development might be more rapid though. |

Good answers guys! Seems like to most of you it's only security and smoothness what matters, not really the platform which it is running on. And this is completely understandable. Normal gamers shouldn't be thinking about API's or anything like that, they should be thinking about safety and entertainment value.

Yeah, already quite many of you saying that the platform doesn't matter as long as it work, right? Luckily these days the mobile optimization is quite good.
Still have you seen any differences between blockchain or bitcoin casinos versus "normal casinos"?

Hello Community! Time for another Bojoko article about a very interesting topic. How many of you think about the actual platform you are gambling on? How is the API (application programmin interface), is it better to play with mobile or desktop? These kind of questions and the changes that have been happening in the industry has been thought in a Bojoko.com article written by Graham A. Jarvis. Please, find the whole article here: https://bojoko.com/stories/meeting-changing-igaming-player-demands/Interesting quote from the article: Less than a decade ago, operators only had between 50-100 games on their websites across one tab, but now it's possible to have thousands of games across several tabs. All of these games need to run on one system. Just interested to ask you as well, 1. Do you prefer my mobile gaming or desktop in online casinos? Why? 2. Does bitcoin casinos have similar standards are regulated online casinos regarding API's? 3. Does the platform actually matter to you? |

Have you ever been scammed and what do you think should be done to prevent scams in the future?
If exit scam counts then yeah, I've been scammed several times in the past. The problem with newly appeared online gambling sites is that they can perform an exit scam any time, explaining that they were hacked, or without any explanation at all. I knew about the risks, of course, so I never lost more than $20 because of such incidents, but still it was an unpleasant experience. Now I won't risk more than $10 on a new site, but I can't say I will stop using them completely, because sometimes they run positive EV games for the promo, and you can win up to $100 in those games. Was this on bitcoin casinos or crypto casinos or "normal" licenced online casinos as well? |

In Hedgehog case it is all about trying to improve game providers and online casinos services and improving their safety. This is directly from the article that we recommend reading. This sometimes means trying to hack into an online casino site to identify any vulnerabilities and report back to the operator with any improvements they can make.
Peter says that there is no such thing as unhackabale or completely secure but that on the whole, online casino sites, especially those licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, are secure.
"Most use the latest technologies to aid in the defence and go through routine and regular external security assessments with penetration testing firms.
But in the majority, they stick to the tried and tested route for security validation and rarely ask the testing firm to go all the way.
It is often a budget issue but also a lack of risk awareness on the part of the operator." |

Hi Bitcoin community and gambling enthusiasts! We have recently published our newest article in Bojoko.com and it's about very interesting and very serious topic, scams. The cryptocurrency space such as the gambling industry have always had scammers, cheaters and frauds and it is difficult to stay away from these as they are becoming more and more professional. The question is, how could we avoid them? Should we regulate more? Should we teach and educate about the risks involved? In the article we interviewed Peter Bassill who is the founder of Hedgehog Security. Peter and his company are testing online casinos and trying to break their cyber security and helping online casinos prevent any scams from happening. Article also has advice what to do, if you have been subject to an online casino scam. Please, read the full article here: https://bojoko.com/stories/online-casino-security-and-scams/Have you ever been scammed and what do you think should be done to prevent scams in the future? |

One thing strange about these regulations is that they never get to touch giants like Bet365. They are allowed to operate freely even in restricted markets.
What do you mean? Can you elaborate a little bit? Bet365 is based in England and under the regulation of UK Gambling Comission. |
