I played Blackjack online last night, and it was my first time to actually bet money, well after about an hour or two I started to feel weird, serious- my scalp started to crawl.
I have read today that casinos do in fact, use embedded devices to hypnotize the user...
Has anyone else experienced this?

I am really concerned by this,

Please- I don't need snoughty remarks just interested in people to respond that have actually played online casinos.

I think all these kinna online games are zoomed @ppl with addictive personality's and the feelings u were having was the excitment of the moment
I have seen many people who use such been elated and hooked on such, they are like zombies and nothing but the wheel or whatever they betting on matters so be wary of such Blainwave grin

I worked in the online gaming industry for many years - both for the biggest companies and as a consultant.

2 hours of playing the same game is gonna make you 'dizzy', the monotony of it will make you tired. It's the same as if you were playing an online wargame like World of Warcraft or Tomb Raider on your PS3.

The online gaming industry is HUGE, they don't cheat, cajole, or hypotise. There's NO need to. Blackjack has an approximate house edge of around 2.5%. That is their advantage over you.

Those kind of returns, the same as in a regular bricks and mortar casino, mean that the biggest online sites, across all their games have a daily turnover of around 30-50 million dollars. Turnover, not profit. They are also highly regulated and would NEVER risk that kind of financial throughput, just to try to hypotise a few of us. You're safe...

I don't play for money, use their chips.

Have you ever noticed that there is a pattern with hands? The same ones come up over and over again over time.

Talked to an 'almost' professional gambler and he told me that games on the net are always losing propositions.

Save your money Blain

Aces and 8's is really a dead man's hand on net games.

Thanks Ray, that was very insightful, I better get the heck out of this before I start base jumping?
LOL!

Illu- Sounds like you worked on the inside, i knew the House has the edge, actually I did a lot of pre strategizing/practicing prior to playing.

Harvey- First I bounced around even, then I went up 100, then I went down 100 then I finished back at even...

Today I am abandoning my idea of getting RICH playing Blackjack.

I hereby openly renounce my kingdom of Gold and Riches...
