Please avoid posting your opinions without backing them up. Without basis for your statement, it's useless.

Because they did not work for you, does not mean the tips do not work.

These tips actually work splendidly.

If not followed accurately, or not given enough patience they will appear to have failed, but it wont be the tips that actually failed.

I'm afraid it is not that simple Swash - as this site is not public domain in terms of ownership (it is a private owned forum which allows the public to post) which is why there are rules which must be followed for posting.

The case was that you didn't express an opinion, just a comment - and actually were asked to express more information instead of leaving 6 word comments which did not explain the 5 w's for leaving your comment.

As for this guide - it totally rocks! I used 9 cards and made 13,000 in minutes! Cha-Ching! I played it a bit safe, stood up a few extra times maybe, but well worth it...

Now I'm gonna take Oxf's addition and play to see if it makes a difference...

I can't even find an empty blackjack table, I have teleported to at least ten different servers and ratskeller and the other one had a person on it.

There's ALWAYS one other "person" at the table, an NPC (Non-Player Character). That means that when you play, there should (clockwise, if you are sitting in the correct place), the NPC, you, and the dealer.

The table will never be empty, there will ALWAYS be an NPC sitting directly opposite the dealer.

Found when you cheat, that if you click "Leave" BEFORE you click "Stay", leave the box confirming your leaving up on the screen without confirming Yes or NO. You can now still click "Stay", watch dealers cards, if your cheat card pops up click "Yes" to leave the table immediately. if your fast enough you wont be caught cheating. 50% of those times, you'll still win, and get the gold anyways.

Excellent tip! I'll add it to the guide once I've tested it. I'm pretty excited to test it! I think I'm sitting on 10+ cards right now. Not ideal, but enough to run a test!

Thanks!

Ok, Zep, Ironhawk and others, I updated the guide to include your suggestions, as well as adding a few lessons I've learned myself.

Keep the suggestions coming, so we can keep improving the guide!

Thanks!

[Bartholomew Ironhound]

wow good guide i realy like it

[Davil]

Good Guide! I knew how to play and cheat but this is a great source for better info!

I just got caught cheating. I stand up after every win. But it still took away all my previous hands' winnings. Do you have to leave Ratskellar every time now? Is it all winnings in the past few minutes? Do you have to switch servers after every win now? No more building up 20,000 per hour, if that is true. (Switching servers takes over a minute on my computer these days.)
