Martingale Staking Strategy

This is an extreme method of staking. It is almost guaranteed to win you consistent money but in the long run after many stakes there is great probability you will defy all odds and get cleaned. This is best used boxing with maxed mains as there are little variance and variables. The only requirement is a minimum of 162 times the amount of your initial stake.

Originally, martingale referred to a class of betting strategies that was popular in 18th century France.[1] The simplest of these strategies was designed for a game in which the gambler wins his stake if a coin comes up heads and loses it if the coin comes up tails. The strategy had the gambler double his bet after every loss so that the first win would recover all previous losses plus win a profit equal to the original stake. As the gambler's wealth and available time jointly approach infinity, his probability of eventually flipping heads approaches 1, which makes the martingale betting strategy seem like a sure thing. However, the exponential growth of the bets eventually bankrupts its users.

I am going to show you two methods of the the martingale. The extreme one is seen below and this will allow you to gain double all your losses. Few people consecutively lose at boxing maxed mains 6 times in a row.

X=Original Stake

Original Stake = 10M = X

Lose

Bet 2x

Lose

Bet 6x

Lose

Bet 18x

Lose

Bet 54x

Lose

Bet 162x

Win.

Now you will see the traditional martingale which involves less significantly less risk and will almost guarantee you to win your current initial stake.

Original Stake = 10M = X

Bet 10M

Lose

Bet total losses (20) + x

Lose

Bet total losses (30) + x

Lose

Bet total losses (60) + x

Win

Use these to your advantage. There will be revisions, just have to write the formula for the 2nd one.

No matter what way you put it, it's still a 50% chance.

There's millions of different formulas that people use.

That is the whole point of the martingale. Its capitalizing on that coinflip 50% chance.

lol there's no "capitalizing" on the 50% chance, it just skews the probabilities so you have a small chance of losing big and big chance of winning small, but your expected value of earnings is precisely 0 still.

If you had 31m to start and your initial bet was 0, probability you lose 31 is (1/2)^5, = 1/32 (probability of losing 5 times in a row). probability you win 1m is 1-(1/2)^5 = 31/32.

Expected value is still 1m*31/32 - 31*1/32 = 0.

Bullshit.

Basically stake until you win, you can lose 10000 matches in a row... its all luck

Posted

what if you lose the last one?

Posted

I did this before this way.

Bet 1m, if i lose bet 2m, if i lose bet 4m, if i lose bet 8m etc until i win.

Well. I lost 8 stakes in a row and got cleaned.

thats not true martingale, you need to bet all your losses + your initial bet

facepalm these nuts

martingale is the name of my dog's collar design.

You can't beat a 50% chance. Simple. You also can't have an infinite bank.

If you won with an infinite bank you still wouldn't make bank as ur bank is

infinite, you can't get higher than infinity ;)

EDIT: 900 Potscount  :battle:

Wouldn't this formula be nulled if two people were using it?

Ele is right. The only true way to have a long-run expected value of over 0 is to have some sort of advantage, be it rules, stats, first hits, etc.

^ I agree completely, you need some sort of advantage to be +ev

In my OP I stated that eventually you will get cleaned.

The strategy had the gambler double his bet after every loss, so that the first win would recover all previous losses plus win a profit equal to the original stake. Since a gambler with infinite wealth will, almost surely, eventually flip heads, the Martingale betting strategy was seen as a sure thing by those who advocated it. Of course, none of the gamblers in fact possessed infinite wealth, and the exponential growth of the bets would eventually bankrupt those who chose to use the Martingale. It is therefore a good example of a Taleb distribution - the gambler usually wins a small net reward, thus appearing to have a sound strategy. However, the gambler's expected value does indeed remain zero because the small probability that he will suffer a catastrophic loss exactly balances with his expected gain. It is widely believed that casinos instituted betting limits specifically to stop Martingale players, but in reality the assumptions behind the strategy are unsound. Players using the Martingale system do not have any long-term mathematical advantage over any other betting system or even randomly placed bets.

On a side note:

I gross 500M+ a day using this. I say gross because people have a stake in me. I also do know that I will eventually go broke if I keep doing this. There will be that 1/128 chance that I will lose 7 times in a row. It hasn't happened yet but I know it will and I have been extremely close to it.

Expected value is still 1m*31/32 - 31*1/32 = 0.

As retarded as I feel saying this, Ele whore's post made more sense than the entire first post.

Strictly put, it's still gambling, the best way to win big at arena is to get higher levels to 1.5 or 2x you.

You must have bad reading comprehension to not understand the OP.

makes sense o.O nice find, so because it's a 50-50 chance then if you lose, based on odd's you'll win next time and if you lose multiple times in a row, then you've got an even higher chance of winning. I'm a bit confused on the formula though, what's with the 3x bet each time?

No need to make a science out of a video game.

Jim did this on online roulette, he won £170, then lost it all.

So a guide teaching you how to get cleaned? cool.

Posted

so why not do this, after you reach a reasonable ammt of gain bank what you started with, and play with only winnings so u never go broke... no point to risk it all just to make faster and end up with jack sht..

Posted

Yeah. I do this sometimes.

Except, I lose.

So really you will win sometime, but you also have a chance to get cleaned in the process.

I don't need mathematical bullshit to prove any of that.

Posted

I lost 49 stakes, in a row, losing bank. All box stakes, all 50/50 chance. Cool.

were u on a maxed boxer? or just
