As we know stake has started xmas raffle with $50000 on pool 
This will be interesting because to get tickets we have to waggering $1000 for 1 tickets I think the chance to win is good enough because not everyone can collect 1 or more tickets a day because waggering will leave them the amateur players.

just want to survey how many tickets do you have guys?

Whoa. A 1000$ per stake really leaves out some of the small time gamblers out of this promo. Though the duration is a few weeks, which ends at the 25th if I took their notice right? Could lead to a few small time gamblers obtaining a few tickets, most of the tickets would still come from the big time gamblers.
Plus, stake can easily get this back, since the minimum tickets they need to get even is 50, and we all know how the event is gonna receive more participants that just a measly number of 50.
Haven't really got the time to gamble again for quite sometime now cause of duties irl  but I'm gonna try taking a few tickets if i can.

Yup 12 days countdown
Not really is hard im just play safe and control the bankroll more focus just for waggering everyday I forgot for a moment to hunt whales now :p
I have 20tickets already not much but I still believe if it was good enough for a chance to get one position i wish...

I didn't know yet about this, can you please leave a source of a link so that we further know about this contest?

That is quite a good and huge prize probably many gamblers will surely buy tickets and they will attract the prize. But I dont pretty understand the criteria on how it works and $1k to wagger is also a quite big amount. If overall tickets are available is 50, there is a high chance that probably we hit the jackpot prize and I hope with a fair result.

If you stake player you can found in VIP tab

high rollers have already started collecting their tickets, this will be fun of course
Yes  I wish I could have 50 tickets that was a good opportunity to get prize

Plenty enough imo. Well, you're not really spending $1000 but rather gambling them, so it's rather easy if you often play at stakes. your 20 should easily reach a 100 till christmas, IF you play everyday anyway. And you actually don't go bankrupt. Preconditions in getting that 100 tickets. Still, I actually thought it was only a top 1 2 3 placements for the winners, turns out it was up to the 15th, which is quite nice. More chances of winning, even though the price went lower cause of the split.

 You can just look it up in google. But otherwise  here you go (https://stake.com/)

Did you really need to create a separate thread for this topic op? You could have simply discussed this stuff in the Stake thread itself.

Coming to the topic itself, I don't think many gamblers will waste their money gambling to try and win a raffle since they would primarily focus on buying gifts for themselves and their families especially at this time of the year. The ones who will gamble might focus on games like Baccarat in order to try and win at least 1 ticket.

Too high, only a gamble with have a huge fund can get to this promotion.

Roobet doing an $5000 prize pool for a xmas event, and each player can get 1 ticket with only 10$ wagger bet. Cant get a chance for me or other people who just gambling with a small fund around 50-100$ amount.

LoL is it now forbidden to discuss about stake because they have a forum? Comeon man

there are already 100% stake players and maybe they already know about this contest not here some people are not aware of the contest I tried to discuss and give this information to those who do not know

Just to give out some few words about that sharing problem of that certain guy above.Theres no prohibition for sure on posting up this kind of promo
yet we know that this forum is a good place to get more players on certain type of event.Talking about that raffle which i shall say that its quite high for the total wagering
amount to be reached yet not all gamblers would able to reach that threshold to get a 1 ticket.So basically means that whales do always have the edge into these particular events no doubt.

Those complaints of being high total wagering to get tickets should be under the ANN of Stake located at Gambling Section, if y'all don't like stake's criteria for raffle, then don't join and find some gambling sites just what ryzaadit shared above.

Speaking of whales, whales are whales, even though they can easily join and get some tickets, those prizes probably a small amount for them. They are playing and risking huge amount of money then there's nothing wrong to get some high edge in this event.

I have 8 currently http://prnt.sc/qbuhxr
I'm not forcing myself to gain tickets as much as possible, I'm just playing like I used to do. It is a raffle where any ticket may win something, so I'll just hoping for the best luck no matter how many tickets I'll have on the time of the draw. Absolutely more tickets will have bigger chances but raffle is still raffle, a single ticket can even win the main prize if the luck comes.  ;)

Nice sir 8 ticket its still have a chance and true even if we only have 1 ticket dont worry raffle can make anything happend with luck
Im stack with 20ticket till now got ripped 3days ago with HILO games but im just lost my profit bankroll still safe on vault

other players on stake have over 100 tickets and more   . idk how they do that , too much waggering  ? or what if they are just rich to depo big and make several rolls and then boom they can generat ticket easily    .

currently i have zero ticket sadly because im not that into waggering thing too much but i just play the normal way  . i would feel happy if i bet small and win  big than depositing big just only for the wagger then loosing it all at the end    .

Sure its possible high roller so greedy XD
When race $1000 they make crazy bets to race for 120 minutes and waggering like 3btc+ and earn raffle ticket a lot. but I'm very sure that they don't focus on that
they play as usual and try to make money with bets , ticket raffle its just bonus for high roller i think

Looks like a good promotion which I think is attractive to slot players.Gamblers who play slots if they keep playing with like a 200 dollar initial bankroll and play with small bet it can easy bypass 1000 dollars of spending if they keep winning the bonus games of the slots.

I haven't check the promotion yet but this looks like an interesting one.

Sure there's less participants on this competition as $1,000 total wagered for 1 ticket is a hard requirement for those gamblers who are not serious with gambling. OP.. i have some request, if possible you add a link of rules of the competition so we can all read it easily.

Slot ripped for me  :D waiting scartter so boring
HILO and keno its still better to play and got some money and waggering will come ofcourse

Good to have such a raffle, but the high rollers and the one with huge wallet balance will get to have large number of tickets. This means one with large fund will have the increased chance of winning. Anyhow this is gonna make few gamblers Christmas Celebration more enjoyable. Also from the quote it seems like only VIP gamblers can take part in this contest. Believe other casinos too have more christmas surprises.

You can already see it when you do tend to visit the site.Its on the top part showing off the promotion.

I agree that this would really be a hard one for most gamblers on reaching that 1k usd wager.

Impossible for me to reach a wagering requirement of $1,000 on a gambling site within a short timeframe.

Maybe advantage for the high rollers since only a few might compete but we know Stake has lots of high rollers so the competition involves many gamblers that can reach the said requirements. Even I want to push for it, when I always hear the term "raffle" it's like my chances are always at zero even I let's say I able to gain a decent number of tickets.

Good luck to those who have tickets. Hopefully, the winner will be one of the users of Bitcointalk.

Right, that the number of participants wouldn't be that much but we don't know the statistics because it could be many outside of the forum that are spending already more than enough just to be qualified and get more tickets.

If I do have much to spend, why not if the prize to be given away is also generous and I think that's worth to take the shot. Knowing that with $1,000 you could also win along your way for the ticket.

stake is one of the succesful gambling site nowadays and they got also have a good base of players but most of these players i  think are just a small time player and few of them are real gamblers that bet big  .  this is a great oppurtunity for them to earn extra income but we dont know how much money they already loose just before this raffle begins  .  if you think you have more important things to spend then prioritize them first because rafle like this are not guarantee at all that you could win  .

I don't know the stats whether they are small or big but they always have this kind of huge raffle every time they are announcing it. As I've said, with that $1000 wager it wouldn't be a lose most of the time.

There's more of it but it wouldn't be a complete loss but it depends on how you'll manage yourself and handle situation.

Going for small or minimal bets and goes for auto-roll and using up some martingale or any strategy would really takes time but not for those people
who can immediately bet big with 2x payout.Same as usual where these kind of promotions do really open out more chances for big players its not totally
close for smaller ones but we know the chances which is really slim but it isnt hard to try though but expect for those people who do have advantage.

So far, I only got two tickets.  ;D LMAO. While other players had 20,50 and 100+ or more but I still have high hopes to get at least one.  :D I'm not that high roller thus a small player only but I was so excited about their prizes. Eddie did a good job for this christmas event. Goodluck to all of us here,  we all have a chance to win a raffle.

At least you've got two.

How about us? we can't even participate by just having one ticket. Good luck and hopefully people like you will be one of the chosen winners for this raffle.

I feel that recently there's been a lot of filtering on races and now raffle by setting a relatively high wagering amount not affordable by the new/low income players. I wonder if this is a strategy to market directly to those who can afford and thereby increasing their odds of winning. What do you guys think?

I am not sure if I can wagering $1000 for 1 ticket, that is a lot of money that I will use. But I am curious who will do that and how much money they will use. But the prizes will tempt many people since the money is big. For small gamblers, they cannot reach $1000 in a short time, and I don't think they will risk their money to participate in the contest. Good luck, guys.

You will not know if you do not try, if you are lucky you can wager $1000 with $10. Just wager small amount and make thousands bets then you can wager $1000. It worth to try but just dont force yourself if you afraid of losing some money for it. No one knows who will win the raffle, I suggest you to try by spend some bucks that you can afford to lose.

I only have half of the tickets which you have till now but there are still 10 -11 days to go and i am hopeful i will be able to gather more raffle tickets.
The contest is very interesting. Is there any way to know how many raffle tickets are already taken ?

For sure guys 8 tickets its still have a chance to hit that prize even just 1 ticket  ;D
Keep that positif and believe miracle its that true
Goodluck everyone and for my 20 tickets $20000 can change your life XD
