I’d argue that you were foolish to dust $490 trying to win $10.

I tried a hundred or so on Black Jack. You are right that it appears they get the good hands. I played a second round, and found that playing more than one seat helped. Now, if it is rng related, then it is not true black jack. The rules were created for live play. That was a shuffled deck, with future cards that could be counted. RNG does not allow for full deck, ergo not real black jack, but slot.
So probably not what you want to play for $10. Roulette better, red or black (though that seemed off as well).
I messed around for fun, not with serious money. Serious money is for poker. 
To get my slot fix (I used to be good at calculating live slots of class 2 origin, very predictable), I watch live slot play from several known players. They lose lots more than they win. You can find them on YouTube - BC Slots, Slot Queen, Slot Cats, Gambleholic Queen slots, Neilly777 etc. I like BC slots the best, even his snips show losses, while most don’t.
The preponderance of advice given is to play for fun, don’t expect to win, play for the jackpot but don’t chase it, consider the money played part of your entertainment budget, etc.
My theory I found as long as you make a larger bet then smaller bets Pressed and an occasional larger bet, it will let you win thinking you will make the larger bets again. Once you start making those larger bets you go down fast, switching back seems to change it. I plan the double deck and regular casino games when live is down and this is how it seems to go every time. I’ve won on the blackjack casino games enough to say it is possible. Was particularly going crazy one day on the double deck and won $300 pretty quick playing quarters. I made bets as high as $100. Decided to stop there. I’m not saying it’s rigged but if it is that is how I would say it is from my experience in playing it
Not even a single moderator comment in the past 5 months. Amazing.
Note, we do read and escalate feedback on most posts and topics created on the Forum. That being said this was discussed in detail above and nothing to date has required moderation to this point.
Rest assured this is still something that is being looked into, and we’ll provide any additional information when it’s available.

Why is it taking so long…as it has been 3-years since Ignition had their RNG certified by a third party???
Adding more creditability to the casino games would only enhance Ignition’s reputation and give less notion to the fact that the games could be rigged.
Seems like a win-win for both everybody…doesn’t make business sense to not have this done unless Ignition has something to hide.

Kind of hard to argue your point. It is a bit concerning with a casino that regulates itself.

Welcome to earth buddy. It’s an online casino what are you expecting 
Games are not fair on this fu!?ing site the site is a f*%king joke I had pocket fours today and the flop came Ace ace four …Playing this site enough I knew damn well that they were going to throw another ace out on the turn that I did not even get my full house and what happens another ace comes on the turn I have never in my life on any online site or in any corner room seen three of a kind you put on the board as much as I do you on this site not only that but 4 card straits and flushes are the norm On this site decided to and I’m never gonna put another f$&&ing dollar on this sitesave your money this site is a joke
Every single poker site I have ever played on since 2005 has had people saying that they are rigged. I learned long ago that most people just can’t handle the variance of poker.

People also forget that you’ll inherently see more bad beats when you play online simply because the game moves so much faster. Say you play 2 tables online, you’re seeing 4-5x as many hands per hour compared with live.
5x the hands = 5x the bad beats

Indeed, third-party certification of the RNG is of paramount importance. Having that certification from a reputable entity would greatly buttress Ignition’s standing and integrity in the eyes of its players.

I’m beginning to get suspicious of what goes on Ignition poker. I’ve been playing online for 15 years and have gotten used to bad beats, but last night I’ve about hit my breaking point. Are they setting up regs with beats to keep the recs in the game? I’m mean you see live pros post hands all over when they get 1 outed. I got 1 outed twice in 2 hours, only playing 3 tourneys, not to mention the multiple 80%, 75%, 65% fav losses. The 50/50 flips are 10/90 in my case. After a while you just know it’s coming, I just drop my head in disgust. To top it off this clown min 3bets oop vs 2 players. I know he’s capable of doing anything, so I raised all in, he tank-slow rolls AA, like the pathetic parasite he is. Oh, and the disconnects, add these things up. Is it really worth playing on Ignition?
- A certified pRNG means absolutely nothing, particularly in the casino. Casino games are by nature already rigged in favor of the house, with those odds being intentionally set per individual game.

Bovada and Ignition could make FAR MORE money by increasing their spreads on BTC deposits, charging the miner fee that it costs them to send out crypto payoffs, enforcing their bonus rules to the exact letter (ever redeemed 2 non-deposits in a row? Increased your bet to over 20% of your initial deposit? You’ve broken TOS). By not paying out large jackpots to newer users.

Occam’s Razor tells me that the reason they don’t come out and state the obvious, is because of its potential to be used as Exhibit F by a certain global Superpower, should they decide to clamp down on international casinos. They are getting pressured to do this by parts of the country that have legal gambling, and feel that they are losing revenue to international online casinos.
I don’t know if everything is 100% on the up-and-up at Ignition/Bovada. But I can say the same thing for EVERY casino I have every played at, virtual and physical. Mathematically, you are ALWAYS playing a game that is rigged for the house. A certification means nothing, though I would prefer one as well.
The poker players in here thinking that they need to implement a grand conspiracy to increase rake…that is a special kind of funny.

@Fuggit i did not follow this but i am all ears
tell us about this grand conspiracy…
and
how does it increase rake?
oh i think i know what you mean…
that by being regulated than it would cause ignition to raise the rake???
Why do you prefer certification if it means nothing? Have you ever hear of GREED? This is why casinos and poker rooms may very well cheat in the absence of regulation. The fact that the house has an advantage does not always deter cheaters! Poker in the Old West, on the Mississippi riverboats, and in the old California card rooms was rife with cheating. Cheating was a major part of the gambling business before its regulation in the second half of the twentieth century. Personally, I do not trust the blackjack and baccarat games at Ignition. I have had many, many losing streaks and practically no winning streaks. I am a winning poker player, though, so I know how the cards should fall. CERTIFICATION AND REGULATION ARE IMPORTANT!

i really do not know how much regulation would help
just look back at UB and AP when they got busted for a super user in high stakes
it was not the regulators that caught them it was the players
and do you know what happened to russ hamilton after he got busted superusering?
nothing…hahha…
but
UB and AP closed down for good when they got busted for that and no poker player will ever trust their company again.
that is how i know Ignition/bovada would never do that.
because they would never risk their whole company going down for a couple bucks.
but if i was dr evil
first think i would do is make everyone anonymous then i would disable chat
then i would stack off pros every once in a while to keep them in check.
then i would try to scare off as many pros as i can because they would be the ones who would bust me…so i would introduce a recreational poker model and not give rakeback and just randomly cut all their earned poker points in 1/2 one random day.
then i would not offer any bonuses to poker players that deposit.
a live whale in the ocean is worth nothing but on land it is worth a million bucks
so if a pro would stack a whale then if i was a super user i would stack that pro and get that whales stack
fortunately i am not dr evil and igntion/bovada are also not
and they would never do that ever and risk their whole company getting a bad name
a name is everything for a poker site
people keep talking about superusers on all the forum but they are not thinking correctly.
i trust ignition

I don’t take responses seriously if they quote an immaterial opinion blurb, and go on to rant as if the rest of the post didnt exist.
Certification is meaningless because it does not certify what you think it does. That and the rest of your answers are already included in my post.
