does double provide enough precision? isn't decimal more suitable in these situations? here is a little bit of clean-up , hope you don't mind me meddling ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Console.WriteLine("Input the Chance of Losing 0-100% "); float chance = float.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); Console.WriteLine("Input tries "); int tries = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); Console.WriteLine("Input Amount of Bitcoins you wish to gamble "); float btc = float.Parse(Console.ReadLine()); Console.WriteLine("Input House Edge 0-100% "); float house_edge = float.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
I think you are right but float seems to work just fine for now. I will work it more later tonight and update it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Yeah, I would never pay for such a calculator unless I got to try it for five or ten minutes before. Software trials are a standard now.

It will always be open source i dont see why it shouldnt be usable with other casinos already; you already have an input for the house edge in case another casino's edge is different, and youre not making a bot so no need to implement api access for every site. its just a simple calculator for martingale to prepare for the worse-case scenario.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

I will also update it tonight with % of consecutive wins in certain amount of tries

What is EV? Can anyone explain it to a newbie in this type of business here? I would be really happy if someone could link me to some sites where is this explained and easy said.

EV is expected value. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expected_valueexample, since primedice has an edge of 1%, the EV is negative, and over the course of a large number of straight rolls (lets say, a million) you would be expected to have 99% of the bankroll that you started with.

you can't level up your game.. its all based on luck and if your ready to lose any winnings will be a suprise. BEFORE you deposit you should consider do afford to lose that amount. and if you think there are some winning strategy you are SOOO wrong. regards. -Katerniko1

Doesn't this make the casino unfair? I think that if there's this, we can't win in a long run, right?

You are right BUT over a large amount of plays you should be back to 99% of your bankroll since the house edge is 1% Also the EV will always be negative due to the house edge but u can always calculate what it would be most profitable to play on

nah. the fun of coding is much more than gambling ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

I think that if there's this, we can't win in a long run, right? well that's the point of a casino; casinos are for-profit entities, and the edge almost guarantees them that they will come out ahead in the long run. in real life casinos too, all the games and slots there are designed in some way to make the casino money. there's nothing unfair about that, fairness is if your rolls or results are random as they should be in an internet casino.

As people already said it's not that hard to code that. I coded something similar last month in python. It took me like 30 minutes of effort. If you'd like to make money you need to code more complicated things like a betting martingale bot.

I think he is not making money here because the title is FREE. Even if he can code a betting bot, he will need to code a betting bot that is better than seuntjie's bot and it is hard to sell it as well because seuntjie's bot is very famous around here
