Talk about risky though. A 1 BTC bet and holding out until 16x...

He is a whale holding 1 btc that long will never scare him . Btw last time I saw him winning around 20btc after loss-60 btc that means profit 80btc and last night saw him already -60btc again. That is crazy for him

I guess some people just have enough not to worry, . I was at a local casino and sat at a blackjack table just to watch, and there was a guy that would tip the dealer $20 if he won, $10 if he lost. He ended up tipping well over $1k, and they said it's normal for him to do that (he goes a few times a week and always does $20 on wins, 10 on losses).

With realhavok going from huge profit zone to huge loss zone in the past days, the site profit has now gone beyond the previous high very fast. Once again, Ryan has the last laugh.

BTW, let's see if your theory in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1020726.msg12613128#msg12613128 still holds this time hehe.

It took a lot longer than I thought, and was a lot more stressful than I would have imagined it would be, but it seems like my theory did indeed hold =)

Watching chat shows this as well. When there's a lot of busts below 2.0x, it's pretty audible in chat and the number of bettors drops significantly for a while.

Wow, I was away for maybe a month from Bustabit and I just noticed maxprofit is higher than 19BTC 

Someone lost big or Ryan put some liquidity in the pot?

I put a lot of extra money (~200 btc) in the bankroll to support higher wins (something the whale wanted) but now that battle has been fought, i'll be shortly pulling money out of the bankroll and reducing my exposure =)

So if you want your chance of a big hit, better be quick (Yesterday someone set a new record, with a >15 BTC profit hit) before i lower it down to about ~10 BTC again

Did they end up losing it again, or running off with it?

It's been a while since someone's cashed out >100x with a decent bet size. A smooth 3.13 btc from a 0.03 btc bet

Doesn't look like they were camping for a 100x, either. Just luck, :p.

Just a nice screenshot of the my first two games today.

It just shows clearly how the outcome of two completely same bets (for betsize, cashout level and system busto) is affected by other players behaviour





Just felt the need to share it also because from time to time someone asks "Why is this game defined social?"

[hopenotlate]

Am I wrong or bonus calculations are messed up here?

How can people who cashed out earlier get a bigger bonus than later "cashouters"?

The issue is that the bonuses are calculated exactly, then rounded to the nearest satoshi. So say someone wins a 1.7 satoshi bonus, that ends up getting rounded to 2 satoshis.

If their bet size was 1 bit, that means they got a 2% bonus instead of the supposed 1.7%  

So it's not really an issue, just a quirk

To be honest I did noticed it was related only to people betting 1 bit but still couldn't figure out why it was happening.
Thanks for making it clear.
