I do not understand how any of you win consistently. I always lose at least 3-4 times in a row. Win maybe a 10 credit bet, lose a 500. ;_;

first of all XUioX is still there among the leaders seconds the reason he got down is because the new people betting credits its all about the limited size of total in game credits and with this going public there are new credits and new people and the odds spread

and third i am not bitching just saying what i think

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.

Izzy · 07-9-2008, 08:14 PM

I know that. But mentally the chances of you losing 5 times in a row is less then the chance of you losing 4 times in a row.

Same here, but for me it's 500 credit bets. xD

cyrx900 · 07-9-2008, 08:22 PM

Booyah! Went from 4 credits to 832 credits! I know it feels like no credits at all but hey, at least it increased!

shad0wlord · 07-9-2008, 08:29 PM

Im down by 1000. Has anyone tried any progression betting strategies?

crobins · 07-9-2008, 08:31 PM

Went from 36k->63k->55k->61k Free credits ftw

Harmony- · 07-9-2008, 08:38 PM

50k to 120k to 200k to 4 credits.

Damn gambling.

shad0wlord · 07-9-2008, 08:40 PM

So how long before we see someone in the official credits for items shop trading their house for a lot of FFR credits?

Mentally i entirely agree, i find myself doing the same thing, but in reality it doesn't matter the least.

I'm sure you understand this, i just don't want people thinking they have a better chance of winning using your strategy, then losing all their credits.

Sh4d0wD3v1L · 07-9-2008, 09:01 PM

Worst win ratios:

Me -- 6th 36.36%

Edit: PS -- 46k --> 1 credit

Can't play due to tendinitis, oh well.

**funmonkey54** · 07-9-2008, 09:06 PM

I just tried taking a few small bets with that strategy. I lost 11 1k bets in a row. And that my friends is why I quit.

Raveren · 07-9-2008, 09:09 PM

I tried it once.

I won ten credits.

I'll take my profit and leave it at that.

You mean nine credits; ten percent of all bets go to the house. The exact same thing happened to me; the first time I ever bet, I won a ten credit wager. I have a perfect 100% winning ratio.

**Flandre Scarlet** · 07-9-2008, 09:16 PM

Credits Won: 13333
Credits Lost: 12190

I'm just sticking to 10/100/500/1000 credit bets. If I lost 10k/50k/100k, I'd be pissed >_>

Mezo · 07-9-2008, 09:16 PM
