I get that. Blackjack can feel a bit repetitive unless there is some kind of challenge or event going on. I still play it from time to time, mostly when I want something slower than slots. Do you have any favorite live tables when you join contests?
When the match gets tense or goes into extra time, the emotions are on another level. Even a small bet makes every pass feel important. Sometimes I get more nervous watching a regular league match than a final.
