Topic: I'm Absurdly Lucky (Read 1648 times)

So, last month I got a payment for my sig for 0.24. Since I figured 'who gives a fuck, its free money anyway' I put it on 1broker and used it to leverage long BTC. Long story short the crash after silk road shutdown caused a margin call and I was left with 0.03 in. So I figure what the hell, I'm going to put it into primedice. I'm trading using the equivalent of a martingale, but with 33% chance of winning (3x payout) rather than the normal 2x payout. I leave it running overnight, lo and behold, today, somehow its up to almost 0.1 BTC! So I withdraw the 0.1 to my wallet, and figure I'm going to be done because I don't want to lose it all. Then I figure, "why not invest in Just-Dice". So I send my money there, to invest.

However, I was short the transaction fees, and really wanted to have at least 0.1 to invest otherwise its sort of silly. So, I start gambling again. Only, fortunately for me, I can't stop. Believe it or not, I just gambled my way up to having 1.07 BTC in just-dice. So I withdraw the 1.00 (I'm not joking, I really did, http://blockchain.info/tx/ebeb8438e580851b74710e66480a41a5a0aa3e3fc027216410a86dc73969fd50) and figure I may as well fuck around with the 0.07 remaining. Within 2 minutes I lose it.

But who gives a fuck, through playing dice games I turned 0.03 into 1 BTC! Sorry if this sounds like gloating, its just after scorning those games for so long (this is literally the first time I've ever played a dice game) having this happen sorta blew my mind.

Put it in dividend stocks or something that pays interest, you'll thank me later 1BTC should be enough to get some nice payouts somewhere, there are fools out there who make those kind of wins and then think if they put down a bit more they'll win again and then end up losing it all, that's how gambling addicts get into debt etc.

Take the money and run! Don't look back

It is thread about turning 0.03 into 1 BTC, which is nice especially because OP withdrew the 1 BTC and saved it (I hope  )

wait, is this a thread just about winning *1* btc?

How many BTC did you lose before?
And God knows how many you will lose in future.
That's how gambling works: it addicts you with some wins but in the long run you always lose.

I expected something like "I found a wallet on my HDD from a few years ago with 5000BTC on it"

Made around 3 bitcoins on satoshidice today .

The RNG gods

Well, it sounded you had some bad luck and the gambling gods decided to make you just lucky enough to get it up to 1 BTC. Good move that you withdrew that. I have seen a lot of people win big and lose it all. Well, gamblers will be gamblers right?

Absolutely 

Although I'm almost 100% sure I'll be back when I get this month's payout from my sig. The damn things are so addicting, especially when they x30 your money
