this isn't the first time i've heard about this. someone also told me that, although he has no proof, he suspects that practice mode is VERY different compared to playing using real money.

Think about it.

Why would they make the play money version HARDER to win?

I have heard many rumors of sites making the play money blackjack game EASIER to win -- putting more face cards in the deck or just simply rigging it -- to encourage you to play for real money. (Of course, this has never been substantiated.)

Making the play money game more difficult, though -- thereby discouraging people from playing normal blackjack -- would take a real braintrust.
