I played 10 times lost 6 times and I won 4 bets, I guesshttp://btcall.allalla.com/0.jpg it's still not fair.

The black outline is actually a layer over the board part that is used to calculate the outcome, so the black pixels are calculated as the color underneath. The official calculation is done from a database table that was made at the same time as the image by dumping the section information when they were still separate layers as well, so the edges where they run into each other may not match the image exactly. I've always done stats calculations off the database and just considered the image as a visual, so far I've only had to adjust the database once when it called a pixel that was clearly well off the board as a double bullseye (must have had a stray pixel on that layer)
I think I've shared the board stats before but not sure where so I will pull them again, just to give an "official" number to compare your stats to. (Not that there's any sure way for you to verify this, but it's where my payout numbers come from)
Which should add up to the 96% that I normally give as the average payout %
And just for good measure (without actual totals)
Gotten enough plays now that it doesn't vary too much anymore, mostly tends to drift down slowly with upward jumps when someone wins big.

my calculations:
chance * payot + ... + chance * payot = ~0.69%
chance * payot + ... + chance * payot = ~0.69%
I got .89 for the "Not including black" table and .76 for the other one.
It would be nice if someone ported this to facebook and the likes.
I think this is prohibited by facebook rules

I encountered Bitcoin Darts and played a total of ten times each for 0.1btc. I came out ahead by 0.41btc. So I decided to investigate further the odds of winning.
I analyzed the PNG image and noticed a bit of antialiasing and also a bit of green bleeding into the bullseye area. Additionally I wasn't certain how to evaluate the black pixels, whether they are to be included and if so which color to evaluate it as. I figured perhaps the code is designed to regenerate a position if black is picked. Additionally I wasn't certain how the code would handle antialiased pixels that do not match the exact rgb value of the majority of colors, so I recreated another image with no antialiasing that I then wrote a script and parsed the data from.
Attached is the image I produced and below is a PHP script I wrote to gather and output the following data:
Chances of winning or breaking even: 0.11 + 1.00 + 0.67 + 1.16 + 1.19 + 1.28 + 1.41 + 7.32 + 1.50 + 1.21 + 8.58 + 9.42 + 1.46 = 36.31%
Chances of losing: 1.71 + 8.87 + 1.96 + 12.51 + 24.65 + 14.78 = 64.48%
Otherwise if as suggested above, black pixels are not included, then
Chances of winning or breaking even: 0.13 + 1.17 + 0.79 + 1.36 + 1.40 + 1.50 + 1.65 + 8.59 + 1.76 + 1.42 + 10.07 + 11.05 + 1.72 = 42.61%
Chances of losing: 2.01 + 10.41 + 2.30 + 14.68 + 28.93 = 58.33%
