Well, forgive me for saying so, but you shouldn't have gambled with credits that were spoken for, I suppose.

ITT: Rubix regresses to the mental age of a 13 year old girl.

Honestly, suck it up. You could have quit at any time.

Internet credits are serious business.

I can't honestly imagine what you would be like in a real gambling situation in which you lost actual money. You'd probably end up hanging yourself or something.

Stop acting so ridiculous.

You're right.

I just need to calm down for a few hours.

I'm not used to losing and I get ridiculous when I'm trying hard for something and getting raped.

You can now only place one bet every 3 seconds... we'll soon add an option to place 5 bets at once, or something

serves you right, you rat bastard

BTW:

Expected number of bets until you receive a streak of n wins (or losses, depending on what you wish to frame) = 2^(n+1) - 2




(Expected number of bets to get a given streak) vs. (Streak length)
2 1
6 2
14 3
30 4
62 5
126 6
254 7
510 8
1022 9
2046 10
4094 11
8190 12
16382 13
32766 14
65534 15
131070 16
262142 17
524286 18
1048574 19
2097150 20


So for instance, you would expect to need to bet 14 times to see a streak of 3.

I don't think people understand how rare such streaks really are.
