In an infinite-deck game, a blackjack happens 8/169 of the time, a bit less than once in 20 hands. That would make seeing this sequence on your first four hands a bit less than one in 160,000.

Playing online blackjack, hands take only a few seconds each: at 500 hands an hour, this should happen on average once every few hundred hours.

It will be somewhat rarer with a finite deck (the first blackjack very slightly more frequent, but subsequent ones noticeably less frequent because of the deck being depleted of aces.)

I played Party BJ for the first time last week using half a $100 bonus for a roll of $50.

Dealer dealt himself 8 Blackjacks out of 18 hands - The last one being the 18th hand when I went BJ busto. I don't plan on returning anytime soon...

I wasn't expecting to win big or anything though I was hoping for a bit of a longer run...

Your run sounds like my experiences on Bodog. It doens't matter how far I ran my money up..it always dwindled away.

I've seen 5 in a row, took one off and then a 6th. I still won money at that casino.

That would pretty much make me want to break my keyboard..I only managed to get out of this casino even(betcasino.com). It would have been nice to left up but oh well.

I've played hundreds of thousands of hands and don't remember the dealer ever getting more than three BlackJacks in a row. From these stats I guess I've been lucky.

I think my worst was 3 blackjacks in a row. On both sides of that though, there was like another 6 up face cards, and 4 up aces. It sucked.

I've never had more then 4 in a row, but I've had I think 13-15 in the span of 50 hands once or twice.

I think I had a 4 time in a row before.

Of course there could've been longer streaks while on one of the many many autoplay hands I played and didn't notice.

The dealer had 0 blackjacks in a row. It least thats the way a winning blackjack whore thinks. Why waste time and tilt yourself based on the dealer getting a hot run of cards? Keep putting yourself in +EV blackjack bonuses and bet amounts you are comfortable with and you will win.

I only play for bonuses, not for fun, so half the time I don't even look at the dealer's up card. Only if I need it for the decision. And I'm certainly not watching to see who wins each hand.

P.S. - Why has no one mentioned that this is not even close to being the right forum?

Odds of BJ about 1 in 20 or 21 (depending on how many decks).

Odds of pocket-pair in poker 1 in 17.

So these are VERY roughly kind of similar.

I've had 4 pocket-pairs in a row before.


When I was a blackjack dealer for 8 mths I once dealt myself 3 in a row.

I also had a hand where 5 out of 6 players at my table all got BJ (and I didn't) which was pretty wild.


Finally, there is a game called 21+3 which is a side-bet on a BJ game.
If player's two cards and dealer's up-card from a 3-card flush, straight or trips then the side-bet pays 9-1.
I'll assume the chances of hitting are roughly 10-1.

I had a player hit this 3x in a row and 5x out of 6.
He went on to hit it 12x in 20 hands or so in a single shoe.
Everyone was amazed.

He took his $1k+ in profits and cashed-out and left (and hopefully took it home instead of to another casino).

I usually play multiple hands and it always seems that the dealer gets more aces and bjs than in all 3 of my hands,
