Dirk, while I'm sure it happens from time to time, I dont think the software places are "intentionally" dealing a non-random blackjack game. They really dont need to. I think what these ridiculously bad runs can be attributed to is more of "bad random number generator" software. Having dealt a lot with random number "seeds", I've seen some runs of 1000's of numbers that are in no way random. After all, its not truly "random" if a computer is using something to generate the number (usually a seed based on a time-stamp or whatnot).
About a year ago at planetpoker someone was able to crack the "seed" and could tell exactly what cards were coming out next. They've sinced tried to make the seeds more "intelligent" by making them 32bit rather than the standard 16bit. I'm guessing these software places still have the 16 bit. Then again, I could be totally way off base.
Its just that in no way could you ever expect some of the runs in real life that you see online. Losing 10 in a row happens daily online and in real life maybe once a year.
It would be interesting to find out what sort of random number generators these software places are using what level goes into testing them to be sure they deal a somewhat "fair" game.
