Did nothing wrong aside from gambling. You get bad beats as well as good.

Yes, you missed a couple of doubles, which means you don't know much proper strategy.

Huh? A couple? There's only one hand that wasn't doubled.

Yes, and congrats on your decision to stay on that hard 13:-)

All hands were played correctly as far as I can see. Just bad luck :)

the only one that is worth a mention is the 21 beating the 20. Yes, the dealer hits 21 sometimes. But dealer 21 is the same as dealer 17, if vs 13, you know. He had to bust if you were to win that one for example.
