QuoteMy main reservation is that online cas are not required to win or lose against two or more players. In other words, its my understanding they could play against you and I at same time with two separate RNGs.

What is your opinion?

Thx in advance.

When I first starting playing online for small test amounts I did a pretty good amount of checking to see if multiple players were on the same server at the same time.

As a test of my current casino, I had my brother on a Facetime call (in real time) while we both played on the small limit baccarat table.  We also tested blackjack and a live roulette wheel.

We had separate accounts and were playing from Ohio and Florida at the same time.

The baccarat game was the same for both of us.  The dealer, background and cards were identical and the timing was on.  We safely concluded that we were in fact, playing in the same game at the same time.

Roulette was also tested and found to be pretty safe although we rarely play it and only tested it to confirm our original expectations.

And to confirm, these were not RNG games.  These are live dealer games.  I would never play an  RNG game online under any circumstances.

Thanks ADulay for the feedback/opinion.

I play a lot in a state with many Indian casinos. I'm currently trying to get one tribe to install Stadium Bac(live dealer /broadcast to their other cas).

I have acquaintances that perceive Bovada offers a fair game. I have no opinion as I can't set up an online account in my state. Though I can travel a few minutes across state lines and immediately start receiving email/ texts for setting up an account from online gambling sites including MGM,Caesars,..etc)LOL

*The indian casinos/horse racing industries lobby the state to not allow any form of online gambling(for obvious reasons) as they want you to play at their casino or racino.
One tribe even offers an online site(cayman islands or costa rica I believe,...etc), yet won't allow their own tribal members to gamble on that site.


Continued Success,

 

I must have played much more online than most of the real players here as it has been over 15 years of regular play. Playing online has world of comforts. There is no cheating usually specially if you play live dealer. Unless you have to get the feel of the real casino, playing online is always better.

Thx albalaha for feedback/thoughts. I would be comfortable with a live dealer broadcast(similar to Stadium Bac). However, I am not comfortable with a delayed broadcast or the game such as the one by Evolution where the dealer looks like an AI figure.
In my opinion, its simply too easy for a reactive RNG adjustment to the players' wager/size. Yet still within expected Variance. Just my personal opinion /I could be wrong.

I have posted a while back about the two 'well known' on-line casino sites, that I had on our forum here a while back. 

If you all remember, I had their total web site package, etc.  I was to receive a set commission rate for player sign up and participation, etc. 

First hand experience from the business side of them.  They lie, cheat and steal. Period.  I caught them hands down.  I had several friends sign up using all their real and verified information, make cash deposits and play.  Both of the on-line casinos had all kinds of excuses for failure to pay the commissions or pay some trivial amount that was extremely less than their agreed upon rates. 

So if they do that to their advertising platforms, I can only imagine what they do to their patrons. 

That is the reason I cancelled their advertising on my forum.

Just thought it was appropriate for my 'on-line' casino factual findings regarding their business practices, ethics and morals to be posted here. 

If you trust them with your money, as well as trusting their so called 'fair and honest' way of casino play, it's all on you. 

I just noticed something today that I didn't realize I liked about my particular online venue.

Their baccarat game does not offer any of the "side hustle" wagers.

Not Silly Six, Sloppy Seven, Triple Duece, Bad Beat Bunker or anything else.

Just straight baccarat.

I like that.  Makes my game much easier to work with.

But then I prefer it that way.

Old school I guess. 

AD (just my opinion)

But at all the B&M properties I play at, of course you can absolutely wager just B or P if you so desire.

Sorry, I should have been more specific.

I was talking about the EZ Baccarat tables where a winning 3-card 7 on Banker is a push.

I got caught on that twice over time and it put the damper on playing the EZ Bac tables.
