Still goin, looks like steady interest.  Pot at .5250....well worth a .1 BTC bet.

i do wonder what the decisive moment in a round like this would be... jackpot's just gonna grow, so it seems silly to think that interest would just fizzle. I wonder if there's a way to search the site database to find out if any round has had such a high min.bet:jackpot ratio

It's gonna be when the jackpot is still as low as it is and someone slams 5 BTC down on the table (thus hoping other people throw large amounts too, but at the same time, taking a major risk).  After that, a series of .1 BTC bets aren't gonna cut it unless you get other people willing to throw down multiple BTC.  Otherwise it could go on for a while.

By the way, this was my first thought and I really don't care to give it any more at the moment since I've been slowing banking :-D

Right, but if that really is the only sure way to kill it, then getting in any time before that big bet is ideal... even then, as high as the jackpot is getting, it might merit going for with smaller bets. I'm gonna keep playing at least until I see something big. It's very interesting...

perhaps consistent .2-.4 ish bets will keep it interesting, and seeing how the jackpot keeps rising, it should still keep it profitable
