just curious, what casino is the screen cap?

how does one achieve this? teach me  Cheesy

It's in the tread title  Roll Eyes BetChain!! Seriously it just took a ton of patience and following basic blackjack strategy while keeping track of my win/push vs loss statistics to gauge my bets.

jofus87, that's the way to do it!

Congrats and thanks for sharing your story!

Good Luck to all!

I didn't read through the 4 pages. Did he do it again?

Haven't played again since I cashed out, but I probably will after I get back from vacation in January.

okay, I lied about not playing again  Tongue... I just put in 2BTC and cashed out with 2.62BTC. This time was a real battle. 270 hands played, 55% win/push on the left and center hands, 51% on the right. I had some really long losing streaks, and actually got down to about 0.2 BTC before having a very nice winning streak up to 2.62 before I called it a night and cashed out.

Its always a good thing to stop while ahead in gambling. I gave up gambling a while ago and only play poker.
Its the most important lesson I could take away from it.

Is there any tips you can share to us all about how you won your game ? did you use martingale or a new strategy or you're just being lucky enough ?

Aside from using basic blackjack strategy, I'd say my strategy has to do with tracking streaks, especially losing streaks. The last time I played, looking at my hands, it was significantly more likely that I would lose 3 hands in a row rather than winning after two losing hands. Sometimes these streaks lasted for 8 hands in a row. After two losses in a row, I minimized my bets to 1mBtc. Similarly, I played winning streaks by increasing my bets after 2 winning hands in a row sometimes betting very aggressively, 100mBtc per seat (300mBtc total).

I think keeping track of my hands really just takes the emotion out of it, sometimes taking a few minutes in between hands to analyze my data and see what has been going on. I don't really think the statistics are very indicative of what is to happen, but it is a great way to analyze how you have been playing and make decisions from there.

Yesterday I played again and profited 0.9 BTC  Grin So far I have profited 5.02 BTC total.

Great job man! Better set aside ~3.5BTC to save. Wouldn't want a losing streak forcing you to consider betting everything.  Smiley

Thanks, I've cashed out all the profits actually. Some went into savings, some into Christmas presents and vacation money.

I've turned the profits into fiat, kind of hedging against the trending decline in BTC/USD, but I still hold onto some BTC to see what happens in the long-term.

Here's to hoping it's the former, or at least a combination of both. I'll play again later this week and update.

**Update**

Played again today, made another 0.924 BTC.  Grin

After tracking my hands and my balance, I decided to graph it. I played pretty sloppy today, honestly. I started out great, then tilted for a while and clawed my way back into the green. Should've cashed out at 1BTC profit, once I got over 3000mBTC I just started betting the difference and ended up falling back to 3000mBTC even. Anyway, here's the graph and my deposits page.

Deposit transaction: 782045fbdd4e4f408543d120a31d879c24e74dcf402e036e948ddcab1e4c4076
Withdrawal transaction: 80f5223f7d17e76d4525bd9b95e0529812e736161de19edabcbb00831448c3b4
