I was playing online blackjack, and to my horror, accidentally pressed "Hit" when I had two tens. I got an ace. And the dealer had 20, so I won. Everything happens for a reason?

Pah! It's an easy mistake to make: We've all done it :)


Actually, I've hit on 20 with £400 at stake, and lost because I got mixed up as to which hand I was playing after a split. Lost, of course.
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.

Was this an online game? I would certainly think any blackjack dealer in an actual casino would ask "Are you sure?" before dealing a card to a player with a 20.

One of my favoured online casinos would actually warn, but not this one.
