A new whale appears?  12zHnb8nBQL3bDcWt69MhnRrthZUGFpikf

For those too lazy to dig:

Ahh the conspiracy theories now. Was the whale trying to make a profit for SD for the end of the month to bring shares up? Was the whale trying to score a couple of big wins to bring SD shares to their knees?

Got to love the whales. Almost as much as mystery miners or the manipulator!

[BTCdude007]

Looks like there is a profit for March.

But it is unclear. Which is correct?

> Monthly profit: 1166.55910974 BTC
or
> Profit This Month:           -101.75899173 BTC

Why the difference?

Why the difference?

-101 is the start of april i guess

I trust dooglus for 1166 Erik's update will come within this week



Mind game : Profit without less than 1 (1920+1620+620) = 4160 +1166 = 5320 * 103$ = 547.000$.

or
> Profit This Month:           -101.75899173 BTC

Why the difference?

Yeah, I should have been clearer.  The +1166 was March's profit and the -101 is April's.

The official number will be different I expect.  I just go by the timestamps on the blocks, whereas Erik probably uses the actual processing time.  But it'll probably be pretty close.

Wow, if that luck keeps up for the rest of the month

It seems to be doing so.

750 BTC profit after 2 days.  That clearly means we'll be up 11,250 BTC by the end of the month.

Any chance of a confidence interval for that figure?

lol

Out of curiosity, does anyone know over what period of time the profit is actually 1.9%? Is it 3 months? 9 months? a year? infinity? Obviously we have good months and bad months, but when we are talking about the moving profit average, over what window of time does it actually approach 1.9%?

Over the whole lifetime of the game so far the profit has been around 2.042% before you take transaction fees into account, and 1.952% after deducting transaction fees.

It is mathematically 'supposed' to be 1.9% before subtracting transaction fees, so they're doing better than expected.

I don't remember the details, but the house edge has been adjusted a couple of times.  Not recently, mind you.  I think the most recent adjustment was taking the edge down from 2.0% to 1.9% when a clone site appeared which was offering a lower house edge.  It looked like Erik's way of saying "we can afford to out-compete you so don't even try".  I think before that, the house edge may have been lower than 1.9%, but I really don't remember for sure.

Your question is a little confusing.  The site pays out 1.9% less than true odds.  So in the long run you lose 1.9% of everything you bet.  Every game is effectively random, so you can't say "the profit will be 1.9% over 3 months".  You can't say for certain that the profit will ever go back down to 1.9% from its current level.  All we can say is that the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials should be close to the expected value, and will tend to become closer as more trials are performed.

Perhaps I should have asked instead, how many trials would it take to theoretically reach 1.9% with a 95% confidence interval?

Well alright.  Now I can say "I don't know" instead of "your question sucks"

It's affected a lot by the big bets.  The profit from thousands of small bets can be wiped out by a single lucky big bet (and vice versa).

The question should have one more number. It should be phrased "95% chance that the house edge will be within 1.89-1.91%" or similarly. The size of the acceptable error there will greatly influence the result.
And... I don't remember how to do a problem like that It's complicated by the fact that with 1 trial, there is a 0% chance that the house will take within 1.89 to 1.91 percent.

I think it can be assessed using Markov chains. Meni Rosenfeld's analysis of PPS pool bankruptcy probabilities (AoBPMRS, Appendix c) examines a similar problem and uses a Markov chain model. I haven't studied them, maybe someone else more familiar with Markov chains could do the analysis.

Markov chains are more useful when there's a relationship between the states of the system.  In this case, it would be more like "losing 3 in a row changes your chances of winning the next one".  Since we don't have that, you can use regular IID statistics.   

The way I wrote the script that dooglus is using right now, is taking advantage of the fact that for a sum of random variables, you can just add their expected values, and add their variances.  Square-root the resulting variance ot get the standard-deviation.  The result will be a mean and std-dev, which you can use to compute a 3-sigma bounding box (or 2-sigma, if you want 95% confidence).

For binary systems like this (win or lose), you'd "normally" use different equations, but this construction is accurate as the number of trials gets large.  SatoshiDice qualifies.
