Yeah martingale is scary as hell if you don't have sufficient money to face off 30+ reds in a row.

It can be, most possible gambling software recognise large bet, therefore you loose. As far as I know, some gambling software recognise that, so if you place small bet, you win, if you place large bet, you loose.  Wink

If only BTC is easier to obtain for oneself, I would consider playing matingale for a low amount not for that big one see the outcome if he happened to won his 5th bet he can only win a profit of 0.10BTC

Well,please tell me the site he was rolling the dice at was provably fair because its certainly doesn't seem like that.I'm assuming the win chances would be 70:30 but its not plausible to see him losing straight in a row and I'm not even talking about the strategy he used here.
If someone makes a large number of rolls, I am sure he will see many long streaks (both the green ones and the red ones). Without knowing how many rolls he has played, and overall how many bets he has won and lost, I don't think any conclusion can be made at all.
That is logical.Though I would definitely like to know the entire scenario here.Considering the chances for double payouts are usually 50:50 percent or more accurately 49:50 that behavior of the rolls seems strange to me.

It is entirely possible to lose even 30 times a row. We are talking about 6 here Tongue
I wonder how this assures provably fair when the chances of wins are 50:50.

guess who's back
well no need to post more stories i guess we all know that nothing will work in the long run , but that doesn't make martingale bad cause in general when you decide to gamble on -EV games you already made a bad decision
martingale will only help you to reach you goal or bust faster
also the sample is small , if 0.1 BTC is his base bet then it's really normal thing to happen

Ouch, really sad to see someone losing 3+ bitcoin while trying to win 0.1 BTC (assuming that was his base bet). He should have just done a 3 BTC bet on a 1.04 multiplier, as it is faster and safer. Hopefully he could afford the logs and just wanted to have some fun, but it easily could have been someone who was dumb enough to think it would actually work. At least he made Stunna happy.

We don't know if 0.1 is the base bet. it could be even 0.0125 or less. I am guessing the image was taken from the highrollers tab and you know only bets/profit bigger than set would be shown there.



Also,that is a terrible strategy regardless of whatever it is.Well,please tell me the site he was rolling the dice at was provably fair because its certainly doesn't seem like that.I'm assuming the win chances would be 70:30 but its not plausible to see him losing straight in a row and I'm not even talking about the strategy he used here.

That's so much to lose wow. I think you should have left the wager the same so of you pass the next roll you break even. This will give you about 3x more rolls. I understand you could miss a good roll but you can also win your money back and use of as a form of safety net.

Mind reading the post again ? Loser is not OP himself but some random guy over the site.So the "you" you're referring to doesn't make sense here.

another victim of martinfail strategy, that a huge amount he might be a rich person or a professional gambler
afford to lose that amount I guess he knows what his doing, I can't see myself losing that much in any gambling
game.
Professional gamblers would not use martingale strategy, they tend to go for sportbetting or other games where you have the chance of beating the odds.

Just goes to show how terrible it is to lose this way. Losing faster than you ever could, and not having the reaction time to stop it.

Martingale should only be done if your bankroll can sustain more than 15 losses in a row, at the minimum.

I agree but I think 15 is still low as a minimum. I'd say 20 as minimum and always set a target of the overall profit in order to stop, let's say half your bank or if you want to be riskier x2. You can't run it for long and the more you do so the higher the probability it will bite you in the ass.

Oh that is another sad story which happened due to perfect winning strategy for gambling, i am quite sure when someone start playing with martingale than he think losing streak will never happen to him and that why he start taking big risk to just few cents and in the end lost all of his just in a seconds to the house edge.

Another gambler bankrupted by martingale, why I am not surprised much?
People often tend to forget how with initial 0.01 BTC bet after couple loses you will be betting thousand of dollars.
From my experience martingale is a 'strategy' that seems to result in the most incidents of losing entire bankrolls of all betting progression systems.

All in 3btc on 1.04 multiplier is also risky because he could lose in his first bet. Although his chance to lose is low but it is not safer bet imo, he was just in a bad luck to lose those 3+btc.
