You used to be able to bet really fast. "Mutiple clicking results in mutiple bets" or what. And when that was around you could bet so fast you would overload the server... rendering free bets. But now that the page reloads after each bet, there is no problem of that such. I never realised that, that was happening till tass told me and set me to 250K credits....

8M was so nice....

I am up to 320K now. Over double my initial 143K.

shouka: doesn't matter anymore. we fixed it 3 different ways. multiple redundancies, just in case we have epic fail, it still won't fail.

edit: or what tofu said. either way, we fixed it by making the bets hit the database in a different way, so they register faster. we made it so you can't place more than 1 bet at a time (page has to refresh each time). and we made it so that even if you have uber fast reload, you still can't place a bet more often than every 3 seconds.

This takes forever... I have 8k. Next time I get over 64k (what I started with) I won't let myself get any lower than that.

Reading the last few pages of this thread is just ridiculous. Rubix, surely you of all people realize there's no possible way to beat the system at all, no matter how "patient" you are. Every account would eventually end up at 0 credits if they kept betting. No matter how good some peoples current streaks are, the expected return remains 0.98 and you'll eventually start losing.

Basing a strategy even loosely on events that have already occured is absurd. If a friend took a coin out of his pocket and made you a bet, would you ask him what the coin landed on the last several times it was flipped? Obviously not. Coins have no memory whatsoever, and while a record is kept for ffr gambling, the system has no memory either. I really hope you don't think you've found some surefire way to beat the system, because your odds will never be greater then 50/50 on any given play, and your return rate will never go up from 0.98.

0.98 might sound close enough to 1, but its really not. Playing "Jacks or Better" on a vlt with perfect play has a return rate of 0.9954, and blackjack, depending on rules, is usually at least 0.99 using basic strategies (without card counting). Casinos can still have these games though, because even having a return rate of mere decimals below 1 means the player loses money the majority of the time.

When you gamble, you should expect to lose. This can be thought of as "the cost of entertainment". As soon as you start to think you can actually win money gambling, you get yourself in serious trouble.
