Default Fraudulent Carib Casino

Everyone,

You can look back at my past threads and see I have been a loyal Carib supporter. That has now changed. I have played there since I was 18...I am now 30. I was doing well in the sportsbook and decided to try the casinos for a little while. I was up a few hundred when I upped my bet to the max $500. Here are the 12 dealer hands immediately following and my result:

20 - Lost
21 - Lost
21 - Lost
18 - Lost
20 - Lost
21 - Lost
18 - Lost
17 - Push
21 - Lost
21 - Lost
17 - Push
21 - Lost

There goes $5K just like that. I complained and was told they are "randomly generated" Yeah right. I know I am foolish for playing online casinos anyway, but I can't believe they would be that crooked. Since they apparently are unwilling to make things right with me, I am through gambling with them. After all, if they are that shady with the casino, can you trust them with your money in the sportsbook? SBR mods, anway to get my money back on this clearly rigged game?

i am sorry to hear that, but unfortunatelly i find it possible... if you hit only one such strike in 12years, that is not SO bad

if we do not consider the pushes then you have 2^10 chance that you hit such a strike /actually little lower because you did not play 50-50 game/

i guess you have played more than 1000 series of plays of 10+ hands in your life, did not you?

I only play some UK casinos for the bonuses , I 'Grind' through the Wagering Requirements at £1 per hand playing BlackJack

I have played thousands of £1 hands getting these bonuses & once lost 17 £1 hands on the trot & pushed on the 18th

I have also seen the other side of variance by winning 16 hands in a row.

Carib have no need to rig their games as they have the House Edge on their side & long term will win.

What you got in your session was the bad side of variance.

Granted there are 'dodgy' online Casinos out there but I really can't see Carib being one of them.

"What you got in your session was the bad side of variance."

Um. It just so happend exactly when I started betting the max $500 bet? And it is not just losing that many hands in a row. It's the 6 out of 12 hands the dealer got BJ.

I have no doubts that you were playing in an even more rigged casino than the game already is, but unfortunately you have little to no repurcussions here mate because whatever occurs is still statistically possible.

Hell I actually won with them, and then they went back and changed the rules afterwards. When I inquired they told me they appreciated my e-mail and knew I'd understand, and offered nothing even in the way of a rebate.

Sorry about that happening to you as it is a sickening feeling...

Playing land-based the other night, I had at least 12 straight hands of 20 or 21. Have seen similar streaks on both sides of the table ... both online and offline.

yeah, there si no way for us to tell whether the games are rigged. so far, i think pinnacle's casino is the only fair one...although sometimes i feel like it is rigged too, but i tally up the win/loss-push record, and it seems to be fair. i stopped playing at pinnacle because their high limit bj has 5k limit. too much temptation for me...i could lose 15k in 3 hands (speaking from experience)

First thing I do when I join anywhere new for sports is have the casino blocked, not that I don't trust myself, but it's the place most fraud seems to happen, and preventing any drunken temptation is a positive side effect.

Feel free to post the complete game logs here and I'll check them out.

Does Carib still use the Unified Gaming gaming platform?

What blackjack rules?

The more you bet the online casinos have it that they win more than you.

caribsports.com's casinos should be avoided at all costs. ive played thousands of hands amongst their casinos and have lost consistently. their games are rigged, making it impossible to win beyond a programmed amount. i have overwhelming data to prove this and plan on posting again with that data in the next week or so.

ive played in dozens of online casinos, but even considering their attractive bonuses, i would definitely reommend avoiding caribsports for casino play.

thegreek.com, betonline.com, bodog, etc....all offer a fair casino experience. avoid caribsports.com

I have my own story about bodog casino going nuts and dumping nearly 4k in about 8 mins, hell I had an 11 against a 6 double down on one hand for 500 double to a 1k got a 9 for 20 (this is when I was 700 down had I won this hand I woulda quit 300 winner as only reason I was doing this was chasing the losses, thinking I must be finally due for a winning hand after losing 10 in a row), dealer flips over a 10 for 16 and just as quickly hits a 5 for 21 , 3 mins later I dump another 2k for a 3700 missing 7 mins, I have long since disabled online casinos on my account and I assure you that when you bet the max. you are begging for a cold run at all online casinos, b/c most can't afford to just give away 20k to the many players they have playing that could easily result from a hot run of 500 a hand blackjack (they simply don't have the backing to take million dollar hits in a day from 50 hot blackjack players) or the potential 200k per player wins that could easily result from 5k hand blackjack at pinny fuk if you bet 5k a hand on that site I'll bet you'd see so many dealer blackjacks that it would make your head spin. Moral of the story if you are going to "buyin" and bet 5k 500/hand blackjack just do it at the real casinos, do it a few times and theyll buy ya a nice call girl and at least you will know its legit and regulated, there is absolutely no reason to bet even 5 bucks at blackjack online much less 500 hand, I know from personal experience bro, I was punching my steering wheel that night on the way to buy some Tylenol PM after losing 2/3 of my gambling roll in 7 mins at that rigged ass bullshit, but that was a long time ago, I learned my lesson and I hope you learn yours and disable that account balance emptying crap
