There's a little more than 24 hours left of the competition now, and people are trying their hardest to claim the big prizes!  Seemingly overnight, TiredOf has wagered more than 4,000 ETH, with emodom behind them at ~2,500 ETH wagered!

There's now a little over 72 hours left of the competition, and 1st place is gonna be tough to beat!  Will anyone do it?  Currently, all prizes will receive a 2200% bonus (which means multiply your prize by 23 to see what it will be!)!

The competition is crazy, it's enormously EV+ for players now - it's still cheap to get on the leaderboard and the prize is much higher than what it would cost you. All places except the 1st are EV+ now.

@dooglus, if the prize pool keeps building up you can still have profit from this competition!

Cheers and good luck!

We're 2 days into the competition now, and here's the next update!  It looks like doog might soon have some challengers!

I was offline all day. When I got back on I saw that someone had overtaken me. It didn't last for long though. On the plus side he lost a bunch, building the prize pool for everyone.

-snip-

Edit: I should have quit while I was ahead... I ended up busting my 200 ETH deposit. Sad

Still, the prize pool is nice now!

Indeed, the prize pool for the competition is now over 200 ETH!

Makes no fun knowing doog will win with his "infinite" balance and playing with very low risk.

This is the 3rd contest I have played in. I didn't win either of the first two despite trying to. So how can you "know" I'm going to win this one?

I was down over 34 ETH at one point, while the max profit per bet is around 1.5 ETH so I had to win around 20 max profit bets to recover. You think that's "low risk?

I think you don't know what you're talking about.

There should be something like a maximum wagering amount during the contest; i.e. you can only wager up to 100 ETH / day for the contest (ofcourse you can play further but only 100 ETH will be counted) - something like that?

The whole point of the contest is to incentivize wagering. Your artificial limits to try to cause equality of outcome are silly.

Chances shall be equal to all members - and that's probably what yolodice's devs also want to achieve.

Don't you think that if they wanted equal chances of winning for all players they would run something luck based not wager based? And then it would be overrun by bots like the low-level faucet was.

If you check his stats, you will see he has enormous wagering amounts on BTC & LTC also, but the winnings compared to this are relatively small.

My profit is positive on all 3 coins. That's due to luck and nothing else.

He just makes a small number of bets with a very little % gain in each bet. So no, he is not likely to lose since he will just fill up his balance and recover the loss if it happens.

It's not as easy as you make it sound. When the max profit per bet is 15 times your losses there's a good chance you never recover no matter how much you deposit.

Edit: "...babbling about.." Ever heard of politeness?

You started it by complaining that the person who wagers the most will win the "who can wager the most" contest.

This is supposed to let those with higher balance win... what are you babbling about? Do you not know that there is still a chance he'd at a loss from doing those bets?

I had a really small balance...Just deal and try to work up your totals. (BTW, I AM in loss here so far, not much but its a chance we take to win the bigger prizes)
