Default Vegas 24,Strange variance re blackjack doubles & Splits

As an experienced whore I am not one to normally whinge about downswings. But Im now heading towards 3 standard deviation downswing on the $500 and $100 bonus reload, betting low stakes. (average 5-10). Have tapped original deposit out only 60% of the way through clearing WR, and nearly tapped out second smaller deposit.

Nothing unusual in a downswing except the nature of the losses appears recurring. On double opportunities Ive had virtually no tens, perhaps 2 dealt out of the last 60 -70 opportunities, which is way less than normal statistical random distribution. In addition, the dealer has an unusual amount of made hands at exactly drawing 21, both on doubles and splits. This is averaging close to 2 in 3 over the same number of doubled hands.Overall doubled losing rate over the
period is around 90%.

Other than this, the card distributions appear random.

I know there have been issues with Futurbet/IGS software but
if no one else has not had an issue so far Im happy to put it down to bizarre variance.

Interested to hear any experiences here.
