[CHALLENGE] Who wants to be a millionaire ?

[stomachgrowls]

So you do say that you would exclude out womens basketball out of your selections?

No. In general I would be careful with low odds in Basketball, unless you know your stuff. If I had to touch low odds in Basketball without deeper knowledge about the teams and league, I would look for home teams in womens Basketball in smallish leagues.

And here we go:

You can also try some live games betting... if you follow some games or fights
Odds can be low and you have better odds to win

Six straight wins and going to the seventh if this game also turned into the winning list. Not bad doing your strategy, it's doable indeed though same with the thoughts that possible upset can happened but with your good understanding and right choices of games to bet, it would be an interesting run to follow. Good luck to you and keep sharing those quality pick that you'll going to bet with.

Nothing caught my attention yesterday, so better not to rush things.

#8 l Football l CUPGER l Bochum vs Bayern l Bayern X2 l 1,03 l 119,56 l Betago

Unless this is fixed, I can't see Bochum winning inside 90 minutes. They will give a good fight and probably score 1-2 goals, but Bayern is just Bayern.

[efialtis]

GL bro! I didnt see your challenge until now and whats funny about it - First thing I saw was todays Bayern pick and minutes before that I saw they were still 1-0 behind. Way to go but I can already smell the Million!

ευχαριστώ, way to go indeed

This was pretty close and probably a poor choice. Bochum was in front until 83rd minute. Better to stick with home teams in the end, cup matches and away teams are recipe for disaster

#9 l Volleyball l GER1 l BR Volleys - Eltmann l BR Volleys ML l 1,03 l 123,15 l Bet365

BR Volleys are pretty solid side in Germany, always among Top3 in recent years. Eltmann promoted this season and managed to get their first win of the season in the last round in convincing fashion with 3-0 sets. Nevertheless there is always huge quality difference between well established top teams and freshly promoted teams in these leagues. Eltmann can maybe snatch a set, but that should be it.

#10 l Football l MLS l Atlanta vs Toronto l lay 0-2 (@40) l 1,02 l 126,84 l Betfair

Conference Final. Atlanta never fails to score at home, while Toronto struggles most of the time to keep a clean sheet. Atlanta has their faboulous four (Martinez, Martinez, Barco, Gressel) available for this match, while Toronto's Jozy Altidore is still questionable with a squad strain. Even if he will return to the pitch today, he won't be at 100% and Toronto will most likely keep on struggling offensively.

[Haunebu]

Honestly, this is pointless op. Higher odds are always better than low odds and history has proven that with literally every sport. Low odds are just a psychological way of assuring yourself that you will never lose and I have been there.

This is the same as betting on x1.01 multiplier in gambling though research improves the odds in sports betting. Instead, I would focus on trying to stitch together a 10-round 2.0 odds accumulator by betting a single dollar which would not require a ton of time and it is far more entertaining.

[Kasabus]

Wow, I am amazed but your winning streak, man you are still in a run and I think you'll have to celebrate after 10 wins, you are just one win away.
To be frank, this is really a hard mission, and if you keep winning, you might be tested pretty well once you are close to victory.

Are you planning to stop the experiment if your streak will be broken?

Could you elaborate on that, please ? Isn't it the value that counts ?

If I lose a bet before getting to one million, this challenge has failed of course and will be stopped. But I will probably give it a new try with a new thread then

WON

Nothing for today, so I'll already post the bet for tomorrow, which I had in my book since last weekend.

#11 l Basketball l GER1 l Ludwigsburg vs Hamburg l Ludwigsburg ML l 1,11 l 129,93 l Betsson

Hamburg by far the poorest team qualitywise in German Basketball league. Most of their guys are just too weak for this league. Ludwigsburg has very nice team this year, especially their backcourt is super strong. Ludwigsburg is just superior on every position, so I see easy home win.

[swogerino]

I see that this is going really well until now and I think I will follow your bets with 10 dollars bets instead of 100 and see what happens.I of course wish you become a millionaire because if you do I would be doing well too so let’s see how it goes.

[DarkDays]

So far so good, let's see how your resolve holds when the balance grows to a significant amount.

Would be nice if you could add your current balance so we can see how well you have done.

You must be on around $130+ now right?

[libert19]

Best thread I have seen this in board so far, I might give this a try myself in next year's ipl.

[LogitechMouse]

So far the challenge is working very well. I will follow this thread. Now I'm thinking of doing the same too but using a small amount of Bitcoin only. Like 0.001 BTC and will play on basketball only like NBA or PBA .

Do you see value in something like 1.02 or 1.05 odds? I experimented on something similar before just like you and everything went well for sometime until something shocking happened and I lost everything(Was a small amount luckily).

Luck did not favor me. I advise pulling out as soon as you reach $1000(If luck favors you) since a million in this way is way too difficult.

Nice to see a thread with someone who knows he has a 99.9999999% chance of failing hehe (sorry if I miss out any 9s;) ).

You know,,, you could just do this on dice too, right? Instead of betting with fiat, bet with satoshi, maybe you will not be a millionaire but if you can win 100 BTC, you will essentially be a millionaire;)

It is not the same thing, Dice game is based on math and in a very long number of runs for reducing the variance to a value more near possible to Zero you will get the mathematical value of the game.
In betting is different since is not only math but the human factor is a fact.

Also, consider that 97% on dice will be always a 97% of winning while 97% on betting can be a for example with 100€ a 102€ or a 103€ of return depending on the bookmaker's odds.

lool . failing ? i know its possible if you play with higher multipliers ex. 99999xxx and your winning chance will only be 0.000001xxx or lower the higher the multiplier is but if your lucky you can hit it and win big as soon as you also bet a little bigger  .

yes it is applicable on all type of gambling games  including dice  . you dont need to hit exact 100 btc to be a millionaire because on some countries the exchange rate of btc to fiat is already high  . you can be a milionaire if you have a few btc .  btc/crypto is  really a good medium for gambling because their potential is high  .
