Title: Double Trouble: double your money within 7 days! Double 2 btc!
Post by: bitcoinlottery on June 04, 2011, 08:29:45 PM
Double Trouble

Double Trouble is a very simple game. Someone begins with at least 0.05 btc. The next one in the game has to enter double that amount, 0.1 btc. The first one gets 0.1 from the bank. This continues until 7 days after the last entry nobody has played!

Steps
1. Watch the last entry in the game

2. Send double the amount of the last entry to
Code:
1L7buRK4t9QYEJ2jMco5dcun5a2Amh3Rbr

3. Wait (or promote this game) until someone else plays and double your money within 7 days!

- Excluding transaction fees
- Not doubling previous entry is at own risk

No transactions, made a 0.10 BTC payment. A minute later, chris200x9 replies "first" and apparently had sent 1.0BTC.
I thought "Well, damn. Just lost 0.1 BTC" (which, sucks when you only have 0.22 BTC)

I've now received my 0.1 BTC back. So I would like to give a thanks to "bitcoinlottery" for recovering my unfortunate loss, without even being requested.

I don't see a 'reputation' feature in this forum, but if there was I'd like to +rep you.
Anyway, just a small thanks. My own fault/stupidity, no reason you'd have to return it, but you did. Great character!

For some reason this sounds the beginning of a ponzi or pyramid scheme. Once someone pulls out or stops paying then they are screwed no?

Somebody always gets screwed.  It's basically double or nothing on the play.  At my last transaction of 2BTC I highly doubt somebody will play 4BTC... Oh well.  Here's to hoping.. Worst case I'm out 2BTC :P

Well, gambling is by definition a risk vs reward scenario.  I just blew 4.5BTC on the blackjack site in about 10 minutes.  This was after winning $400 last night at monte carlo night at our church.  (I love dealers that lift their hole card a bit too high)

Do you have to double the previous amount? or is it like the other one you have running where you can put in any amount?
