What are the chances of losing 7 blackjack hands in a row? The probability of losing seven straight hands would then be (0.48)^7 = 0.5871%. Of course, a BAD blackjack player would have a much better chance of losing seven straight.
Feb 21, 2009 What are the odds of losing 10 hands of black jack in a row? I have 300 in my online casino account.

What are the odds of losing 14 hands in a row playing perfect basic strategy? (Standing soft 17 with 6 decks)
Also what is the calculation to work out how likely it is to lose x amount of hands in a row?
Many thanks for anyone who can help

What are the odds of losing 14 hands in a row playing perfect basic strategy? (Standing soft 17 with 6 decks)
The probability of losing 14 in a row is about p = (0.4787)^14 = 0.00003318. So the odds are about 30140-to-1.

The probability of losing x in a row is about p = (0.4787)^x. So the odds are about [(1-p)/p] -to-1.
Since I am only giving p to four decimal place accuracy, you shouldn't express the answer with more than 4 significant digits. For example, the odds of losing 30 in a row are about 3964000000-to-1.

nice question OPnow, this is with a Push breaking the streak
i think a player would still be crushed losing 14 hands in a row with a few pushes thrown in too
that also makes it way easier to see that event
if one plays 100 hands i show the chance that somewhere in those 100 hands the chance to lose at least 14 in a row = abouts
1 in 657
1000 hands played = 1 in 59
so my non-professional opinion is more hands played increases the chance of seeing such a streak at least 1 time
when a Push breaks the losing streak
i ran recent cvdata sim of 411,318,396 hands played (400 million rounds)
24,574 losing streaks of 14 and higher for the player (pushes did not break the streak)
the average number of rounds to play to see such a losing run
push breaks the streak = 57,747.591 (from a Markov chain calculation)
push no break the streak = 19,453.96652 (from a Markov chain calculation too)
losing streaks in BJ, in my opinion,
are the highest from the games of Craps, Roulette and Baccarat (with the best HE bets)
because using BS does not take into consideration playing the hand to give the highest hand win percentage
(that would be for tournament style BJ play)

i think a player would still be crushed losing 14 hands in a row with a few pushes thrown in too
I get the probability of losing 14 in a row equal to about 8330-to-1 (starting from any fixed hand), when ties don't break the streak.i think a player would still be crushed losing 14 hands in a row with a few pushes thrown in too

Thanks guys, I've found a site which has a 10p minimum table and 10,000 maximum so I could double up 16 times or so before losing?
I guess it's risky but I would have to be so unlucky playing basic strategy to lose that many times in a row :?(

that looks good to meso over
100 rounds played the probability to see at least 1 such run of 14 losses increases to abouts 1 in 224
1000 rounds = 1 in 20 (lucky 1)

i would say
not one BJ player would think that should ever happen
i am just guessing on that,
but it could and does happen and should be expected to happen

not that risky if you play to win just 1 or 2 times and stop foreverI guess it's risky but I would have to be so unlucky playing basic strategy to lose that many times in a row :?(
the risk lies in playing it more than 1 time and keeping on playing
the more rounds you play the chances keep increasing that you will see such a losing streak
good luck in your fun

It's on William Hill..I'd imagine all the simulators they use are regulated. Unlikely they would get away with them being rigged?

3 things and 2 cents*you can spot this kind of post with its subject [in caps no less] 10 miles away and it's always one of two things: the poster has taken a terrible beating several times in a row and thinks it is near impossible
*or is thinking about doing the martingale
*the OP is never interested in learning the math himself, nice try Teliot
so the OP is the latter type ; my 2 cents is, 'forget it'. The martingale has been around for centuries. You can skip the math [which I am thinking is your wont anyway] and just stare that fact in the face. Either that or locate the article about the guy who cleaned out the casinos and the martingale is how he did it.

Years ago in some blackjack book I read that in a 24 hour period of playing blackjack, you should have one losing streak of 10 hands or more.
I know I have had at least 4 streaks of over 20 hands and the last one came very recently. I played a whole shoe with 2 other players and did not win a single hand but had two pushes. Figuring about 240 hards dealt to 4 of us, including the dealer, at 2.7 cards per hand, I get about 11 cards per round, so approximately 22 rounds. So lost 20, pushed 2. Next shoe I lose the first 6 and finally win a hand. So give or take a hand or so, lost 26 without winning one. That first shoe was one that went just slightly positive and just stayed there, but I have had long losing streaks on highly positive shoes and those can be very expensive. The thing is the evening turned out positive when it was over and during the day of 3 of my 4 worst streaks I ended up instead of down.
The thing is, in order to be a lifetime winner at counting, you must have the gut to go through these kind of streaks and not lose confidence, especially when the evil streak hits you with big bets out there.
So if you are in a decent size casino with the tables busy, I would guess that there will be one or more people at any time going through what you just went through.
