Understanding the Game Mechanics In Stake's Slider game, you choose a multiplier, and the goal is to land on that multiplier or higher when the slider stops. 2. Probability of Winning The probability of hitting a specific multiplier depends on the range of multipliers available. Example: If the slider ranges from 1.0x to 10.0x, and you choose a 2.0x multiplier: Probability of winning (assuming uniform distribution): P(winning) = (Max Multiplier - Chosen Multiplier) / (Max Multiplier - Min Multiplier) P(winning) = (10 - 2) / (10 - 1) = 8 / 9 ≈ 0.8889 (or 88.89%) 3. Expected Value (EV) Calculation Calculate the expected value to determine the profitability of your chosen multiplier. Formula: EV = (P(win) × Payout) - (P(lose) × Bet) Example: If you bet $1 on a multiplier of 2.0x with a payout of $2 (your original bet + winnings): Winning Probability: P(win) = 0.8889 Losing Probability: P(lose) = 1 - P(win) = 0.1111 EV Calculation: EV = (0.8889 × 2) - (0.1111 × 1) EV = 1.7778 - 0.1111 EV = 1.6667 A positive EV (1.6667) indicates that betting on this multiplier may be profitable. 4. Bet Sizing Adjust your bet size based on your bankroll. Bet a fixed percentage of your bankroll (e.g., 1-5%). Example: If your bankroll is $100, you could bet $1 (1%) to $5 (5%) per round. 5. Risk Management and Limits Set a win limit (e.g., 30% profit) and a loss limit (e.g., 20% of your bankroll). Example: If your bankroll is $100: Win Limit: $130 (30% profit) Loss Limit: $80 (20% loss) 6. Tracking Results Keep track of your bets and outcomes. Use statistical analysis to refine your strategy. Calculate your win rate and average payout over a series of bets.
midnight Posted December 16, 2024 #4 Posted December 16, 2024 Weird chatgpt output, also doesn't consider house edge, and the max multiplier is not . Be careful taking AI advice without scrutiny. Slide also does not have a uniform distribution, it has a right skewed distribution since the multis go very high (instead of a uniform distribution like dice has.) The max/min multipliers % doesn't make a lot of sense either. You would actually want to do that formula Actual probability of winning, let house edge = 0.98 as it is on slide; P(n) = (1/target)*0.98 P(n) = (1/2)*.98 P(n) = 0.49 Formula: EV = (P(win) × Payout) - (P(lose) × Bet) P(lose) = 1 - P(win) EV = (P(0.49) * 1.98) - (P(.51) * 1) EV = (0.49 * 1.98) - .51 EV = 0.9702 - 0.51 EV = 0.4602
