Ask yourself this:
Would you be happy repeatedly flipping a coin with an opponent to gamble?
That is exactly 50/50
Would that be better or worse than what you do now?

I do it with completely random, because if i using strategy on my mind, it's always ended lose and if i randomly choose the chance to win is more higher for me.

It would be incredibly boring. Unless the the other person was drunk or you were joking around and you were using two trick coins - one coin that was heads on both sides and another coin that was tails on both sides - and you were using some simple slight of hand to switch between coins so that you won most/all of the time. Again, only funny as a joke. Otherwise with a real coin, just boring af.

What's the point of this ? You need to play non stop for hours till the 50/50 comes into play. And playing against an opponent is not a very wise thing to do. At least in my country Serbia where people have even lost their lives in land casinos because of the alcohol and the nerves of the play. They have lost playing poker , when things heated up and the massacre happened. I remember it well and that's why I never put my feet in any land casino here. It's not worth and I prefer to bet from my own dark room without anyone knowing what I am doing. My vote is too to disagree with this and keep playing against the house but know in the long run you can lose because of the tiny house edge.

I would. I think it is better to lose to another player then to the house ? Maybe someone feels another way with this ? Anyone doesn't agree ? I see one vote doesn't agree. But why ? Interested.

I like the quick 50/50 best because you win/lose your money faster than using some type of strategy or min bets on other types of gambling websites.

Maybe if I was a retarded six year old child. As an adult who has taken statistics, you would not catch me betting on coin flips. Most gambling ends up on the losing end anyway, and there are so many other things to do with your money.

This thread is just sig spam bait anyway, but hey thanks OP. We need more topics like this.

I personally like to choose the odds for the bets I place, I feel this puts me in more control. I rarely place 50/50 bets (excluding the house edge) because I think it's down to luck using this method. When I use something like martingale I feel as though luck has less to do with the outcome and it is more consistent.

Every game whatsoever is a game of chance and depending on how averse to risk will determine how far you're will to earn will determine the chances you're willing to take. For me, if its with an individual yes I will take my chances but not with machine in which I can't trust to have equal chance as me... My 2 cents...

Thank satoshi

I don't understand. It's obviously no different than rolling dice. Well, except the tiny house edge.
