Call me whatever you want for playing Blackjack at a virtual casino, but I'm interested to know what others think about my following experience playing Blackjack at IslandCasino.com. The below text is from an e-mail I sent to IC and I've also included their response. It's important to understand that I played basic sound strategy for my hands. In fact, I have the actual card sequences in print that they sent me if anyone is interested enough to view. Is my experience a "cold streak' as they suggest in their reply or are their forces at work here.
======================================
On June 20th [Island Casino] sent me my playlog as I requested for my most recent play on June 19th. I am looking at my LAST 76 hands of play.
76 hands were played. Using basic accepted strategy, I lost exactly 70% of the hands dealt. [Island Casino] went thru $* of my bankroll in extremely unnatural play. I gleaned the following information from the playlog sent to me by [their] team.
During these 76 hands of play ....
1.) Dealer drew "20" 16 times, won 13 of those and pushed the other 3.
2.) Player drew "20" 10 times, won 3 of those and pushed the other 3.
3.) Dealer drew "21" 5 times OTHER than BJ...all winning hands.
4.) Player drew "21" ZERO times other than the 2 BJ's
5.) Dealer drew 7 BJ's
6.) Player drew 2 BJ's
7.) Player was presented with double down scenarios 5 times (10 or 11 v.s bust card). 4 losers, 1 winner.
OVERVIEW:
In 76 hands ...
Dealer had 28 hands which were either "20", "21", or "BJ". 25 of those won and three pushed.
Player had 12 hands which were either "20", "21", or "BJ". 5 of those won and three pushed
Dealer won 70% of ALL hands played eliminating player bankroll of $*

Dear Customer,
We apologize if you have had a bad experience in the virtual casino. As you
know, all of the casino games are games of chance and sometimes you get on
hot and cold streaks. Our random number generator plays completely fair. As
a matter of fact, we had a programmer/hacker who bypassed our browser and
played close to 1 million hands and found that our program played 100%
accurate. This individual will be publishing an article attesting to this.
Also,according to Casino player magazine, we have one the best pay outs out
there on casino games. Best of luck in the future.
