anyone ever see a blackjack table where the dealer busts constantly?

Sometimes it feels like watching live results at a roulette wheel that just ignores probability for twenty spins straight. Years back, I sat next to a guy who doubled up in perfect pairs blackjack because the dealer went cold for nearly two shoes, but two hours later, he was muttering about “that cursed river card” in the poker room. Even heaters can disappear quick if you don’t recognize when variance is the only thing dealing the cards.

Walked out on a heater once, feeling smug until the next visit chewed up half of it. In my experience at smaller online casinos, those bust-heavy runs can be legit, especially if the shuffle is rough or they're using battered cards. Still, the calm players who quietly pocket their winnings and leave seem to do best long term.

seeing runs like that always wakes up the skeptic in me, but from a roulette perspective, those streaks have their own flavor. in live dealer settings, sometimes you catch bizarre clusters - think hitting red seven times when every stat says even splits. the trick is bankroll management and not letting a lucky patch convince you it's a new normal. casino math has a way of snapping back hard after these heaters. sounds like last night was one of those rare but memorable swings. did anyone actually walk away ahead, or did the house claw it back in the end?

I’ve seen one or two live dealer runs like that online, especially on free bet blackjack when the cards get “sticky” after a sloppy shuffle. It’s rare but real. Usually the pit boss leans in if something’s genuinely off, but clusters do happen, even if it feels scripted.
