    How do wins/losses and payouts work in the gambling hall anyways?

                    It's all luck to my understanding. If you win you get back what you put into the bet plus what the other player put into it -10% of total winnings going to whatever part of FFR..If you lose they obviously go to the person that originally posted the bet/accepted your bet.

                        um... what??

                        But then my lady friend got pissed off I was playing FFR instead of playing her. Then for the rest of the night she played the 'Only want me for my body' card and I didn't get to sleep with blankets that night.

                                I usually make/accept low bids and if I seem like I'm winning more than I'm losing then I'll go for higher bids..Seems to work out to my advantage sometimes. Or my head's fucking with me.

                                    lol it's literally like playing slots. eventually the house (FFR) will have all the credits.

                                        I tend to go for the opposite and it works for me.
                                        To each their own, I guess?

                                            if there is 50% probability of winning, then doesn't matter. cuz each and every time you play you have the exact same odds of winning.

                                            so what am i missing?

                                                The chances of you losing more than 6 or so times is a lot less than just doing a 50/50 once.

                                                Essentially, it's the same 50% chance, but due to probability, the likely hood of you losing consecutively is lowered each time you do lose.

                                                    Its all about how much you gamble relative to how much you own. If you keep gambling in the long run you will theoretically break even since its 50%. However, we don't have infinite credits to work with. Some moves like betting 100k when you only have 300k to begin with doesn't give you enough room to recover should you lose the bet. If you lose that huge % of your existing credits, you lose power in the amount you can make in a single bet now

                                                        Yeah, pretty much. I hear they've already taken more than 30 million out of the credit pool, although I'm sure some of that was from the millions of "fake" credits that got removed later.

                                                        Nope, it doesn't work that way.

                                                        Actually, you will lose money, since FFR takes 5% of your win. For each 10k bet (for instance) you can expect to lose about 250 creds every time. Bet more and that number increases proportionally.

                                                            I'm assuming the gambling hall doesn't take into consideration previous bets. It's 50/50 every time you take/place a bet(?)
                                                            It's probably the reason why not everybody has a 50:50 win to loss ratio.
