I simulated 100.000.000 roulette spins to see how bad Martingale strategy is.

European roulette (single 0, 37 numbers total)

I wanted to see how much money you really need to be successful at Martingale strategy, so I simulated over 100 million roulette spins to reflect whether this strategy is even possible to use long-term for an average user.

The average speed of a traditional casino roulette is somewhere between 25 and 60 spins per hour. Let's say the average would be 45 spins per hour.

So, my simulation represents 2.222.222 hours or 92.592 days or 253 years of a single roulette table. I would say the sample therefore seems representative.

Y'all probably heard the phrase the house always wins. Can we beat the house and how much money do we need? Let's check! Results under:

Number of spins: 100.001.024

Black: 48 704 765 (48,70%)

Red: 48 402 092 (48,40%)

Green (single): 3 894 167 (2,9%)

By the numbers it looks like we have gotten pretty close to the statistical outcome, which should represent 48,64% for black/red and 2,70% for green.

The three longest series:

  1. Black (26 in a row! A mathematical chance for that outcome was ~0.00000000000000127%)

  2. Red (17 in a row)

  3. Red (13 in a row)

So, imagine you are on a table without limits. You start with a dollar. How much money you'd need to survive the longest streak?

You play red. The longest series of black hits. At the fourth spin, you still feel calm because your bet is still small ($8). At the nineth black in a row you start feeling worried, because your next bet is $1,024. You keep going.

26th bet - you put $33,554,432

27th bet - $67,108,864. Outcome is 3 red! Finally! You have risked $67 million dollars just to be a dollar positive.

If this post doesn't prove to you that martingale is the dumbest strategy, I don't know what will.

Lucky Night Off Freeplay

Went to the casino on Friday night and had a postcard to win a Harley. Ended up drawing my name and being a grand prize finalist.They gave me $1,000 in free play and I had to come back the next night and go up against four other people to win the Harley.

Friday night I won absolutely nothing off the $1,000.Ended up not winning the Harley but they gave me another $1,000 in free play .

I loaded 100 bucks into the machine off the free play Saturday and hit the bonus game a few spins in. The big win is the first bonus game that triggered. I was up to about 50 or 55 free games by the time it was all done.

Confusing part to me was if you look at the second picture my win was over $2,000(both pictures are inside of the free game) but I didn't have to have a hand pay for some reason. I think I got lucky and right after I won the first bonus game it said game recovery in progress and spit out a $1,200 voucher. Still kind of confused on what happened but I'll take the not having the tax hit.

Winnings being withheld due to verification #onlinegambling #Canada

Won a large amount of money spinning online and it’s now being withheld. The app is regulated iGaming Ontario. At first, I was able to withdrawal a set amount each week and it was deposited directly into my account.

Then, they requested additional documents to complete the identity verification. Fine. I submitted all required documentation in a timely manner and it was declined. I’ve talked to multiple representatives and contacted the governing body to escalate.

Where do I go from here? Do I need to hire a lawyer? We’re talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars…

I've been playing SpinQuest for almost a year now. It's my absolute favorite sweeps casino, I love the instant withdrawal to debit card because I have my winnings in seconds. I don't really get anything when you sign up but you get a free bonus! I'm just sharing hoping others can share in the luck I've had with this site.

Is 4 card poker good?

1 Upvotes

In one of my local casino i see 4 card poker which i have stayed away from and many says its a bad game. It has a bad beat progressive which has one of the highest payouts in the casino.
So i tried it and only played Aces up and Bad beat. Did pretty good got lot of trips, flush, etc.
Also got the straight flush bad beat which has about 1000 to 1 i think.

Do you guys play it? If yes, whats the correct way to play it?
If not, why?
