automatic satoshicircle gambler bot -- martingale

[AstroKev]

the satoshicircle site is pretty fun to and doesn't spam the blockchain like a lot of the dice games.  after playing by hand for awhile i decided to implement a simple martingale style strategy as a php script.  as with most things bitcoin, this is pretty simple and very basic and therefore is now released into public domain.

oh and obviously, i'm not responsible for anything you lose/break/etc so use at your own risk.

i'd recommend starting small and working your way up.  you can easily get 15 "losses" in a row, so give yourself much more room than you would think you need!  enjoy!

EDIT ::: Jun 18, 2003 :::
I've reworked a bit of this so that by default it is using the 50/50 circle.  Also there are a few new parameters to edit.

usebetrecovery -- if this is '1' then it will attempt a very small increase (betrecoverymux) on the second bet as an attempt to recoup only the first bet and win only a slight amount.  this is an easy way of extending the martingale stretch by one additional run.

backwalkmux -- in the event the stretch goes past bailiter, instead of restarting the entire run from scratch, the bets are instead reduced by this amount until the bet amount is less than the original starting bet.  again this helps with some recovery with a "run gone wrong"

bailpctglessbalance -- this numbers adjusts upwards as the 'maximum balance' increases and stops the bot in the event that the losses become this percentage of the largest balance seen.  For example, if you start with 0.10 BTC, and have this set as 0.70, the bot will stop if a bet were to place the balance at or below 0.07. (0.1 * 0.7).  This number will scale upwards as your balance increases, so if you went up to 0.15 BTC, this would become 0.105 (0.15 *.07) and is recalculated with each spin.


the output file format:


1) time/date
2) total bets since bot started
3) number of iterations in the current stretch
4) bet used
5) result of bet
6) whether it's considered a win or loss ('WIN/LOSE')
7) bailpoint balance [ current balance ] highest balance seen
8 ) percentage gain/loss since bot started



---

HOW TO USE:

Simple copy/paste/save the code from above and save as "scbot.php".  Edit the configuration parameters, esepecially the 'YOUR-SECRET-GOES-HERE' area.  Get a secret key by visiting https://satoshicircle.com/?aid=843 and copying the secret out of the url you see in your browser.  Of course, you can modify any of the other parameters as you like as well and begin running the bot.  To stop it, either break out or let it exit out once an exit condition is met (i.e. minimum balance or maximum balance)

Are you trying to promote the idea that gambling is profitable in the long term? 

[AstroKev]

Are you trying to promote the idea that gambling is profitable in the long term? 

"With my system, you too can be a /<rAd El33+ interweb bitcoin kajillionairre!"   

LOL.  No!  If you play to infinity, you will lose.  However, you can have a lot of fun in the interim and if you're lucky even win some extra BTC.  I was trying to be pretty clear about the strategy that the bot uses and the issues that it has (i.e. why you will lose in the long term).

BTW, it was pointed out to me that new users of that site will not have access to the 'default' wheel I have the bot set to use.  You have to use like the 3x wheel until you get enough points.  If the bot says "connection error" when you try to use it, then you need to change the game it is playing.  The easiest way to do this is to change the '$idgame = 2;' above to '$idgame = 1;' in the code above.

[rampantparanoia]

can you add the ability to output logs as they happen? instead of waiting for the entire script to finish
thanks

or maybe output to a file so when the script hangs, you can still retrieve the output

[gillespies]

Hi, can someone tell me how to run the script?

BTW, I am running Windows XP

Thanks a lot.

[rampantparanoia]

Hi, can someone tell me how to run the script?

Thanks a lot.

You need to have a PHP environment with CURL enabled in order to run the script. PM me if you want to lease some of my space.

[statdude]

Lol what's the point of martingale?

Just make your bet and live with it.

[AstroKev]

It should be outputting as it goes.  If not, you're getting the output buffered.  Adding ob_flush() right after the "sleep (6)" in the while loop might help.

Aside:  I had some recent exchanges with the operator of the site, and it seemed they were pretty okay with the idea of these bots.  Obviously the cards are stacked against users of the bot and in their favor so it's in their interest, but in case there were concerns about this. 

---

Here is another serious hack job of this bot which uses a very different strategy than martingale.  Instead, this bot tries to make very small wins by being tuned to the 5x and/or 10x circle jackpots.  Essentially it ramps up the bet to make up for losses IF the jackpot is hit, and then a little bit.  The idea is to be able to stretch the runs out much further and minimize the case of catastrophe.  Sorry this code is so ugly.  Clearly I'm hacking around.  BTW, to use this bot "as is", aside from putting your secret in, you must also have unlocked the 5x wheel.  You should expect that this bot may run up to at least 120-150 iterations before hitting the jackpot.  Losing 20+ times in a row will cause you some grief on the amounts it will want to bet, so as always, starting very small is a good idea.

I've also added a parameter to enable a bet as a percentage of your balance.
