OT: Blackjack
 
Stay far far away from it. 2 week's of profit from the 11s down the drain because Party hits 20 every frikkin hand.

A friend of mine dropped $12K in one night on Party blackjack three nights ago. Brilliant move by Party. And I think we need to get my friend some help.

I got hot and won 3k in blackjack, then lost it all in about 5 minutes. I hit a glorious double blackjack though for like 800 bux, dealt AA, split it, 21 on each, it was a 200 dollar bet and was quite glorious. Immediately stay away from it tho.

Am I the only one on this forum that hasn't touched Party's Blackjack?

I hate the bloody fact that Party dropped that stupid BJ icon on all their tables...it's just another evil temptation for people when they've maxed their tilt management

I won't touch the Shiite either

I would never touch party blackjack. I just can't comprehend what motivates people to play it.

The entertainment value of gambling at the expense of being +EV. In my opinion, blackjack is only fun in real life though.

Me too neither. The only thing +EV about BJ is the eye-candy bringing you free drinks. When Party works that out, count me in.

I have eliminated the image on the individual tables, but how do I get rid of the image on the main Party Poker screen. I can't find it in the files, but by god it sure is there to tempt me!

I wouldn't dream of playing blackjack without a bonus.

Not even tempted, negative EV. I can get entertainment elsewhere.

Same here - I haven't even looked at it.

Deleted it the second it came out.

Such an obvious and clever move by party, its almost sad.

The collective money online was already being slowly drained through rake, requiring constant replenishment from the outside. Now with blackjack and probably sports betting on the horizon, people are only quickening the process of drainage.

For the love of god, delete the BJ icons.

Its too funny...

my friend, whom is a professional poker player, lost 25k playing blackjack on PartyPoker (all of the money he had in his account at that moment, his bankroll is considerably larger however). Afterwards he called PartyPoker to curse out someone for implementing blackjack to begin with.

Most people wuold be worried about the 25k they lost in this situation, but my friend called me in a panic after this. What was he worried about you ask? He was worried that the guy whom he spoke to at PartyPoker would jinx his account because he cursed him out.

So my friend called back the next day to apologize to this guy, but he wasnt in till tomorrow, so he played 2-4 NL all day (he usually plays the 10-20 NL or 100-200/50-100 games) until he got back in touch with the guy he insulted. He apologized to him and then all was well in the world once again.
