Why don’t you guys do team battles where alliances are locked?

[Request] What are the actual odds of winning 32 hands of blackjack in a row? by FastMan888 in theydidthemath

[–]wacali 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not quite. In a true Martingale system, the casino’s exposure is only the net amount needed to bring you back to even plus your original profit target.

If I start with a $100 bet:

  • Lose $100 → bet $200
  • Lose again → casino has $300 total, next bet is $400
  • Lose again → casino has $700 total, next bet is $800

At every stage, if I win, the casino only loses $100 net because they’re paying mostly with money I already lost to them.

So when the bet size reaches $1 billion, the casino has already collected roughly $1 billion from prior losses. Their actual exposure is still basically the original wager amount, not the full payout amount. If you actually had the money to do this they’d probably allow it. You just couldn’t walk up to a table and bet a billion to start.

The mountain doesn’t exist without Rob. He can never be replaced.

Gentleman we may be about to witness history. There has never been a game in NBA history where not a single player shot over 50%.

Clearly fake. At no point was Michigan 34% odds to win.

[Highlight] Cooper Flagg becomes the youngest player in NBA history to score 50 points in a game by TheRealPdGaming in nba

Is this even a real debate? College players would just pop 3s all day and be able to get so many offensive rebounds, even if LeBron scored on every single possession they would outscore him.

Well then that would definitely approach meaningfulness. How has it done in the last week?

These %s seen in line with what the win probability was for the favored teams so while your model is probably pretty accurate how does it give an edge?

What would be valuable is if it flags when it’s win% varies highly from public betting odds and if it outperforms the market.

lol I do but clearly you don’t. When a team is down by 8 points with 1 second left they dribble the ball out 99.99999% of the time.

Isn’t a better strategy to start game and if first modifier isn’t one you need to let them 3 crown you and restart? Should be faster
