These are the percentages to win and lose a hand in Black Jack.
How much is the house edge, when the chance to win a hand is 42% and the chance to lose a hand is 49%?
So you "2" clowns are riding on the 99.5% shit and once you get exposed for writing it it was just a misunderstanding, haha. Yeah right.
Anyway, I give you the EASIEST example of how house edge % doesn't mean it's the same winning %.
Look at sport, betting on handicap +/-. Both results have a winning chance of 50% because it's either for example +3.5 points or -3.5 points, there is no other result possible.
Still guess what, you will not get 2.0 in odds, not even close. Many sites give you 1.85 for both results. You bet 100$, you get 185, even though it's 50/50 and you "should" get almost 200$. Guess, why! House edge!
It doesn't matter what the winning percentage is, it has nothing to do with house edge, absolutely NOTHING. House edge is just a number that determines how much the casino would earn OVER TIME even if you win 50% of your WAGER How hard is that to understand and WHY are you so stubborn?
On stake I have lost like 15 BJ hands in a row once. I screenshoted many results acctually. You see me complaining or whining about it here?? Nope, I never did.
Just looking at my folder I can see small sessions where I won 4/18, 10/33, 0/8, 1/13, 2/10, 4/23, 10/36, 11/34, 13/42, 13/48, 16/53, 17/46, 21/54. 28/68, 47/129 and 77/167. That's 17 session where every time I lost all my funds I had on the site with a combined 280 wins vs 534 losses. That's less than a 34.4 win ratio. And by the way, these hands don't even show hands where I doubled down and lost. Sure the sample size is small but when most sessions look like this you know what conclusion I make after a while? I don't play it anymore.
So, I disagree with your arguments because you don't listen. Not about the winning %, not about the house edge. You are so wrong with your numbers and just blend out every argument. Think for ONCE what house edge actually is and then think again. I don't defend stake, I myself lost a lot on BJ, that's why I quit originals BJ, simple as that. But I disagree with your calculations and the way you present yourself in here to the fullest because it's straight up wrong.
