Martingale will work and produce a good profit if you use it on sports betting instead provably fair gaming .
In sports you will not get 10x consecutive lost if you stick in one team/player but in provably gaming you can get 20x consecutive lost which it's enough to make you frustrating.

It is not a good idea to use the Martingale system in any type of long term profit building progression, especially in a game that has an house edge (-EV).  I wouldn't recommend using the Martingale system in any situation; however, if the game is fair, the odds are even, the bankroll is huge, and the profit expectation is very low in proportion to the bankroll, then I can see how it may be an attractive gamble for a single win session.

In my opinion, the key to becoming a profitable player is to adhere to a sound bank roll management criterion and the Martingale system is not a sound system in that regard.

How many of you have used the Martingale System for Gambling ?
Is it profitable ?
Share your experiences with it below !
No it's not profitable according to my experience, i lose every time i go for martingaling my bets.  if you want to try martingale system you must have sufficient balance(larger the profit you want larger the bank roll should be) and should be ready lose 20+ bets in a row.

If you have  a balance of 1.0 Btc, and start bets with 0.0000001, then you could make small profit.
But most people (incl. myself) get impatient when you gamble and tend to up the ante.

I lost about 0.3 in my Bitcoin because of Martingale method.

it was discussed many times here in the forum and answer is no
don't expect to make money in the long run when you are playing any -EV games , cause no strategy will work
martinagle won't work also in +EV games , cause you will be killing your edge by doubling when you lose

i have used martingale method for almost all of my gamblings on dice, and i have to say that there is always a big losing streak around the corner waiting to happen which will bankrupt you.

That is very true. If this concept is working than by now all dice sites should have been closed already. Since it is not working, only people lose money at the end. Because of house edge don't know when you will get continuous losing streak to lose all your money.

Instead of martingale I would rather recommend using another variation of similar (in theory) system - Paroli.
Paroli is a system, which rather than decreasing the wager on a win like the Martingale method, increases the wager after a win.
It involves doubling your wager after a win and resetting it back to your original wager after a loss, and after 3 consecutive wins, going back to your original wager.
I prefer this method because it is less risky than martingale and I like small but consistent wins.

I know this method for a long time but I just know the name is Paroli. Thanks for the information. Anyway how can this is less risky? Because you keep on double your money when you are winning and after 3 consecutive win you will go back to your original wager. So when someone already hit until 1 btc so he will keep doubling it balance until lose or 3 consecutive win? I think this is more risky than usual martingale

It is very profitable for gambling site owners - fast profit without any problem.  Wink

While martingaler's are statistically profitable for the house, they're the opposite of fast profits. People who flat-bet make for much better customers Tongue

it can be profitable.
martingale method is a way of ensuring your profit if you follow the rules of the method you will surely profit on the last win of each cycle. but the problem is that your losing streak can go on, so you run out of funds and lose.

In my experience, it would only be profitable if the bet is so small, but when it is big and you can't support til what multiplier you will end, for sure, it is a failure..

I saw some dicer make profit using martingale 24/7 taking big risk on a small profit. Martingale can be profitable if you have a big bankroll like you can survive 45 lose streak. Plus bonus wagered commision if you are smart enough ☺

I've seen a lot of high rollers do that (people call that reverse martingale. same thing?). some of them win big and others lost miserably. still not much different from martingale as it relies on a winning streak and losing even once can cost a lot (in martingale one long losing streak can do the job but it is less likely to happen.).
Yes, that is right Paroli is called a reverse Martingale. And both systems are flawed and risky.
The major problem is that the chance of you losing at any one given time doesn't change.
But if someone isn't experienced with probability, the plan seems great. After all what is the chance of you losing 5, 10, 15 times in a row?

This one work if gamers knew the limitation of gambling, much better than martigales in the sense of you already won the price you just have to stop and not being greedy to seek for a bigger winnings, maybe after 2 or 3 consecutive winnings you need to stop.

martingale is profitable in short term not long term because in the end the house always win.

Martingale ouuchh martingale who dumb enough practice this useless method, it's just will suck your money.
Even einstein said “No one can possibly win at roulette unless he steals money from the table while the croupier isn’t looking.” when there is a trend people use martingale betting system.
See that? martingale = suicide

I can say that martiangle can make easy profit in short term and not long term. But if you're in bad luck, you're also experience loss.
As far as my experience playing martiangle, I'm obtain some profit but in low amount since I'm ever experience that I'm loss all of my profit.
So my advice are : make your goal profit with reasonable amount, stay away from greed and Good Luck that profit will come without being expected !
