Play BlackJack with Bitcoins!

[bailala]

Damn, I lost my only .2 bitcoins.  

I got lucky when I won several times on with only .02 bitcoins.

But now I only have .01, and I cant bet it, and I cant withdraw it, because of the fee.

Also, I just played a few hands and came away a winner! [Deposit .50 and withdrew .80 - .01 = .79]
I had fun playing. I had several streaks. I won several in a row then lost several in a row (kept getting dealt 16 for some reason). I kept going back and forth like this many times
I ended on a winning streak.

Congrats for your winning streak, you did quite well!

Feature requests:

• When a new user goes to make a deposit, clearly state "Your deposit will be complete with the next block"  OR "Your deposit will clear after 1 confirmation."
  I got a little nervous when I made a deposit and I had to wait for a particular long block to be solved.
• During the actual game, I have no idea how many Bitcoins I have.
  The game shows "You won or lost XX BTC!" But it does not show my current balance. I have to keep a running total in my head, or I have to click on the Home Page link to see my current balance.
  
• When I go to the Home Page, the preset bet is set back to default.
  It should be set to what ever the last bet was in the last game. I don't want to accidentally make a bigger bet, and then lose.
• This is Blackjack! You allow us to Double Down, so Please allow us to Split

The first three points I will add in a few days. I don't want to change anything if I don't have much free time at that day to look for introduced new bugs. But I will do these things for sure, so thank you very much for these ideas! Split is next on my list, right after that!

I recommend randomization services through http://random.org/ who provides true randomization, not scripted pseudo-randomization.

It can add credibility to your service.

I'm already using true random numbers from random.org I think there are many players who can vouch for me being credible, and that everything on my site is legit.

Also, Wikipedia's basic Blackjack Strategy can kiss my ass, I don't care if my sample was only 15 hands or so

Ultimate blackjack strategy->be the house.

I have played quite a bit of the blackjack and I feel it is very fair RNG wise. I have had some good results. Like others have said the only problem is you cannot split and that is a major flaw. That definitely adds to the house advantage. Also there is no insurance option when the dealer has Ace showing. I am not a big fan of the European style rules of only giving the dealer one card to begin the game. For example if you have 10 or 11 and the dealer is showing a face card and you double down and then the dealer has blackjack you lose two bets. Other than that the game works very good.

One time I did get charged .02 fee instead of .01 when I cashed out an odd amount of like .57btc it gave me .55 I have done several withdrawls and this bug only happened once.

Thank you for your kind words, Trayber! I'm sorry for the lost Bitcent. Can you please tell me your user name, then I will add some cents to your account!

Don't worry about it DrKenobi I won a good share of btc from your site my last visit. Thanks for running an honest game with super fast withdrawls 

[DrKenobi]

@Trayber: thx!

@anonymous: Thank you for donating some coins to me

@All: Wow, in the last hours there was a really lucky player! He/She won around 20 BTC! Congratulations!

[Trayber]

Thank you DrKenobi. That lucky person was probably me. I made a few withdrawls  Hit a pretty lucky double down for 11btc. Now if only you could split cards would be the perfect running blackjack game! Sorry you probably awoke and saw you took quite a hit overnight I will likely donate some back.

I've given this link to quite some people via email but thought it would be worthwhile to also make it public here:

http://btcjack.1btchost.com/stats.php

This URL gives you a live statistic over my system. Right now, its output is:

total number of games played: 47894
games lost: 23407 (49%)
games tie: 3951 (8%)
games won: 20536 (43%); of which with blackjack: 2143 (4%)

that means if you'd bet 1 BTC, on average you'd get back: 0.97 BTC

I permanently monitor my system to make sure I'm not unknowingly "cheating" (e.g. due to software bugs) and neither are the players. The 0.97% quote looks good to me. Given that there a A LOT of players who play non-optimal (not to say "bad"), like hitting on a 19 or staying at a 13, this should look equally good for you players. Especially if you consider that I pay out 2.5 times your bet on a BlackJack

Thanks for your trust in me and my site! And please keep sending me emails, I love reading them

Bye, DrKenobi

Isn't the player supposed to win when the dealer and the player get blackjack?

[Klintel]

Isn't the player supposed to win when the dealer and the player get blackjack?

Wow! Where have you been playing? I would love to have those kinds of odds. Unfortunately, every place I play this is called a push/tie.

[tool_462]

Works great!  Deposited a couple, played for awhile and cashed out 50% ahead no problems

[DrKenobi]

Isn't the player supposed to win when the dealer and the player get blackjack?

No, sorry, this is really a tie.

But: if you win with a Blackjack and the dealer has none, you don't just get 2.0 times your bet, but 2.5 times

If you have further questions feel free to email me at DrKenobi at i2pmail.org, I'm glad to help!

[DrKenobi]

The transaction has cleared some minutes ago and you can play 

You can check the status of your transaction at www.blockexplorer.com/address/[your_address]. If it has 1 confirmation there, it should also be verified at my site.

[Ampix0]

Whoah what is this shit now. I have been playing and Im ready to withdraw and Im getting this "Oops, there was an error "

That needs to be fixed now..

7 bitcoins need to be sent to 1NzDpRbTjaJpAgigPVVGB5VWbFykCDbY6r
