Poker's made me frustrated. Like some people, I'm seeing cpu fold whenever I get a decent hand. So I switched to blackjack and for a while I was doing good.
Not these last two nights, at either pub on Padres. The Ratskellar dealer rarely had an upcard lower than 8 through a few dozen hands last night. Tonight, after a run of about a dozen hands where the dealer got a hand lower than 19 once, I left.
Skull's Thunder, same thing. Dealer has 15, draws a six, has a 12, draws the nine. Push on 20, push on blackjack, and forget about filling 12-16, that was just asking for a 10 or face card.
I was up to 7k in gold, now down to 4k. I have been unable to put together more than two winning hands in a row tonight and last night. I'm no blackjack genius, but I know enough strategy to at least break even or come out ahead, so this is really ruining my plundering mood.
Anyone else getting the blackjack blues? Am I just in a rotten groove, or is PotCO just pure concentrated evil on blackjack now?
