Huh? Is it possible to affect the outcome? 'Cause I thought it was just 50% win/lose, with 1% being taken by the game, resulting in a loss over time?

it is 50/50, either win or loss. Eventually everyone wins 50% of the time.

You win 50% of the time. You try losing the small bets, then go for the larger bets. It's still 50% chance, but it's mental. I think of this game like Murphy's Law. If you think something will occur, it'll occur. Like that

I got up to about 3.5 million credits. What I did was accumulate losses, and eventually win a bigger bet. I lost it all though.



Edit: It's been like 3 months. I can't believe I'm still on this.

So that's how you do it. Are those taken or placed?

Just pointing out that what your trying here is known as gamblers fallacy. No matter what happened last time, the is no "memory" of it, no matter how many times you win/lose in a row your next go would still be 50/50


edit - just noticed mantis explains this and probably better about a page back. But to add on to what he said, if it was 50/50 you "in theory" would win your money back. But as soon as the house takes in a portion, no matter how small, you are favoured to lose money/credits.

no, you can't affect the outcome. the only thing you can affect is the amount of accepts/wagers you play and the the amount of credits you accept/wager.
