Deposit encouragement by the software

[Hazard1]

Hi folks

 

Has anyone see noticed the following:

 

I have been playing regular BJ on one of the big sites that uses one of the big software providers. I was happy with the game, my winnings in line with good strategy and all seems well except I noticed something curious. Whenever I was at the last bet of a bankroll the 'RNG' would somehow give me a very attractive split or double options that would mean that I had to do a fresh deposit. At first I thought I was going crazy but then it happened every time. Additionally, the dealer tends to get more BJ's in this scenario. It was happening all the time so I raised it with the Casino and they just gave me the usual, 'all our games are tested'.

 

I have no complaints about the card distribution in the actual game, streaky dealer miracles aside (but everyone says that)

 

This seems to me to be a clear 'incentive to deposit' and whilst we are grown-ups and can make our own decisions, when you have two nice Aces to split, it's very very tempting to go to cashier!

 

Surely either illegal or at least, horrible cynical.

 

Anyone else seen this?

 

Best wishes

Hah! I am NOT surprised at all, Hazard! 

 

It's not only with table games, it is also common with slot games too! The last one or two rounds would always appear to be good, tempting you to make another deposit to see what the next outcome would be, tempting you with a deception that the next round of play would be a good one! DON'T EVER BELIEVE THAT!!! 

 

Needless to say, I have been fooled by those trickeries so many times before in my earlier gambling days...but not anymore. A few times of such tricks can fool anyone...but after hundreds of times of the same trickery, anyone who still believe in it would be a very big fool!

Hmm, sounds as a pretty weird situation indeed... 

 

Would be awesome if you could shed some more light, attach some screenshots, etc so that we could get a better picture of the issue. 

 

Generally, yeah, I have experienced myself countless times the same scenario which Afi mentioned about. Always considered it as just one of the many 'hooks' designed and implemented by the software vendors to encourage players for making one more deposit and frankly speaking, I don't see anything disturbing in this situation.

Have a read of Addiction by Design by Nat Schull - primarily machine slots in Vegas but same ethos.

 

Same for Bonanza - last 2 quid you get 3/4 GOL's.

 

Quaint.
