- “One hand, three of us had 20s and the dealer had a blackjack,” Chuck said in the email.” Three times within five hands I was dealt 20s. On one, the dealer also had a 20, and on the other two she pulled 21s. Other players were having that kind of luck, too. “One of the other players said, ‘When you can’t win with 20, it’s time to.
- This is why I don't gamble with any kind of serious money. I had over 5k in casino money and lost 20 hands in a row on black jack. I bet 250 at a time. I know how to play.and usually do well. The odds are just incredible.
Were I not so numerically challenged, I suspect I could find a table from the Wizard that would let me figure the odds of this happening. Failing that, what are the odds of hitting three blackjacks in a row in double deck, H17?
Also, is there any data out there on the odds of getting on a streak of winning hands? Odds to win two in a row, three, four, etc.?
Playing heads-up against the dealer, my first three hands were blackjacks.
I pushed on the fourth hand, and decided that was as good a time as any to color up.

The other poster reply assumes the probability of a Blackjack remains constant and we know it does not.
But that does show it to be much more difficult than say 1 in 100 or even 1 in 1000.
The more cards the dealer draws without an Ace or a 10 the higher the probability of you getting 3 in a row naturals.
I say between 1 in 11,000 to 1 in 12,000 attempts would be a closer guess.
This could be simulated

Odds Of Losing Blackjack Hands In A Row
The short answer is this:Shit happens.
The long answer is this:
The odds of it happening, on the very next three hands, are mighty low.
The odds of it happening on your next visit are low. But not nearly as low as for the specific next three hands. How low depends on how long you sit at the table.
The odds of it happening at some point within your gambling career are mighty high. I dare say that it's likely to happen several times if you're a fairly regular player...
