Martingale can work if you have the discipline to stop while you are ahead. The odd psychology of gambling makes that difficult. I remember at just dice watching people go up 30-40 bitcoins at times only to bust and lose their gains plus their original stake. 

Yeah, I remember a guy on JD that would martingale with 0.25 start and would martingale until he made 30 BTC profit. He made 30 BTC everyday for a few weeks and only got to 64 BTC bet once.

wow that is pretty awesome Smiley

as i said martingale can work

but you need a much bigger balance !!!

it works until it doesn't .. better to mix it with some labouchere/ reverse labouchere and some random bets. In the end of the day it all depends on luck.

I feel like as long as you have an amount of money deposited that you don't mind losing, martingale is an okay tactic.

its better just to have a very big bankroll to sustain those big streaks by martingale. And you should start with a less base bet.

Anyone can explain what Martingale is?
You will generally bet on something that has roughly 50/50 odds of you winning your bet and a payout of roughly 2:1 (the house edge will need to make either the payout less then 2:1 or the odds worse then 50%).

You start with a small bet. If you win then you bet the original amount. If you lose then you double your bet. If you lose a 2nd time after you lost the 1st bet then you double your bet again, if you win then you reset your next bet to your original bet amount. You repeat this process until you are done betting.

The problem is that you will quickly reach the house max bet and/or your bankroll will not be able to support a larger bet in the event of even a modest loosing spree.

Martinfail is exactly right. If you have the discipline to stop if you are lucky enough to get ahead it can work but there is a very odd psychology to gambling that makes it tough.

Martingale system isn't only extremely risky, but it isn't worth the money because you can win always the first bet amount using this system.

For example:
you bet 2 satoshis to win 4 sat.

1st round:
if you win you get 2 net satoshis.
If you lose and then use the Martingale, even if you play 100 times, if you win at the 101st you win 2 satoshis anyway.

I think Martingale Trick is the best & the worst trick to gambling  Grin
That's right most amateur people only use martingale trick / gamble all at once

But, i think Martingale is works fine if you only use faucet  Grin

With a right provably fair implementation, sites won't be able to analyze your playing style and get advantage on it. Also, they don't need to. Smiley

I do not like the martingale.
The money to be put into the game increases exponentially with the launch losers, and we quickly convince that to ensure victory, we should have an infinite capital you can bet, and the dealer also should be willing to accept any items size.
but unfortunately it is not!!!

so .. stay away from martingale strategy!!!!

Because it works great, until it doesn't. And when it doesn't it does way more damage than you made over the time while it was "working"

If there is a large difference between your starting bet and the lesser of your bankroll and the house max bet amount then you will generally be able to make a small amount of money as the chances of having a bad luck spree early on is very low. At the very least you will want to have at least 100x in a bankroll as your starting bet and you potentially can make a small amount of money realistically if you know when to stop.

The problem is that many people get greedy and end up loosing their entire bankroll. At a point martingale somewhat becomes an all or nothing type bet
