Hello everyone,
was trying to complete the challenge of the 5 red diamonds when I asked myself:

What is the chance of falling 5 red diamonds in a game?

Anyone good in statistics, or excel, to answer my question?

Is it just that I kept asking myself that?

Edit1:

The game has 7 different diamonds:
Yellow, orange, red, purple, blue, and two colored.
the statistical calculation is
1/7 * 1/7 * 1/7 * 1/7 * 1/7 = 1/16807

this means that the chance is 1 for each 16807 games, or approximately 0,00005%

I gave up after hitting 4 red diamonds like.... 10 times in 2 days. I just went screw you diamond poker and blew everything on dice yoloing :/

Thanks for the calculations though, looks like the chances of winning that one was slim as hell.

Every roll the chance reset, so your % it's false.

which is almost impossible since every roll the chances restart

I can not see where it could be wrong. Maybe I did not understand you.

I wish there was a bot for diamond poker, like the dicebot they have. It would make life so much easier, even for this week's challenge...ο»Ώ

Would save a lot of time with certainty :)

From May until today, I have only ever gotten 5 red diamonds once. After seeing your probability calc, I guess I should feel lucky with that!

It was months ago that I hit it.Β  The only reason I remember so vividly is because I thought there ought to be a higher percentage payout for such a rare win! lol

And yeah.......i eventually gave up on this challenge. :)

Luck plays a very very important part in this....

One night a High Roller promised 0.01BTC if you rolled a 5-of-a-kind.

I did it, and several other people too.

And then somebody asked "if you hit 5-of-a-kind twice, you will pay twice?" and the High Roller answered YES.

So I started trying again, and half hour later got another 5-of-a-kind.....

So lucky. When i did the hodgepodge challenge, it took me 5hours. XD

I guess luck plays a very vital role in this just like in every challenge. I wasnt even lucky enough to be there the night that you are talking about haha

The calculation is OK, its 1 chance every 16807 rolls.

You must remember this is an average.

This means that if you hit 1000 times the 5-of-a-kind and make an average between the number of rolls needed each time, you will get a number close to this one.

But it can happen that you get the 5-of-a-kind in just 1 roll, or it can take 100K rolls, or even more.
