Blackjack
Blackjack is my favorite game. It is the only online casino game I know that gives me a real chance of winning. Sitting in front of my computer in my study with the fire going and a mug of coffee or glass of whisky at my elbow, I can play blackjack at my own pace, taking my time and not being rushed by the dealer or the other players. This gives me a chance to study and remember the cards that have been played. I know that card counting is frowned upon and that the casinos do all they can to stop it, but, this is me playing on my own and I have the right….
It’s me against the dealer and no other players are part of my blackjack game. If I decide to take a hit on eighteen that’s my business and no one can laugh at me. If I decide not to split a pair of jacks, that’s my decision and I am entitled to stand by it. I like to bet fifty or a hundred dollars on each hand when I am online gambling and I am always amazed at how well I come out after a few hours playing blackjack.
Things have changed recently. The US has put a stop to money transfers to online casinos, so when one writes “Blackjack” into Google to search for online casino sites, one gets a long list of warnings instead of casino names, but the online casinos are out there on the web and little searching will uncover them. I can continue to play and enjoy blackjack.
