Plinko. It doesn't Always have to be a bust.

[Asscorn]

If your anything like me you've tried your luck with Plinko on all the different risk settings.   It didn't seem to matter what risk I was playing but often seemed I had to put more in then I was getting back.  Until recently I had  written it off as a losers game and didn't bother playing. Well unless I had some crypto to burn, but that's not too often. 

Anyhow, I did have a bit of btc to burn one day a week ago or so and decided to once again try my luck with plinko.  

Prepared to lose, because that's how Plinko seemed to be for me.  I set my bet and set risk to high and started aggressively dumping my coins/balls down the Plinko ramp with hopes of not landing in the 0.2x slots that seems to have powerful magnets to pull balls towards them.   

What started out to be a bunch of hasty bets made to basically go for broke,  I realized that Plinko is a totally different game and needs to be treated as such.  Now I feel I have a better understanding of the payouts and how to play and not walk away most times in the red. 

In Plinko your always walking away with something from your bet. It may be 130x but it will likely be 0.2x but always something.  As I'm sure most of you know,  Plinko is never just a straight 50/50 bet.  More like 80/20 in fav of the house. Lol.  There might be a 2 slot or a 3 slot on the board but it's not a 1 in 2 or 1 in 3 wager.   Every ball we drop is a chance at every prize on the board and like a lottery there is prize structure, with most people losing. But this lottery never lets you lose everything(at least not all at once) and because its Stake and the house edge is so low, in theory after 100 bets you should only be at a loss of about a bet.  (Don't count in this though, could take hundreds of bets for things to level out).   But you will eventually even out. Its just a question of if you have enough btc to wait it out. 

So enough talk about my opinion on Plinko payouts and odds. Now I'll tell you how I play that seems to for the most part keep me fairly level and even able to profit and grab the occasional 130x.  

As I said earlier I started just dumping balls down and realized thats how you have to play Plinko.  You find a bet that your comfortable losing  but big enough that if you hit the 130x or 1000x its worth it.  X that by 30-50 balls. For me its 1000sat.  So my balance would have to be about 30k to 50k.  I would then put any remaining btc I have in the vault. This way if I end up busting the amount I want to play with  (wouldn't happen right away)  I wouldn't give into the pressure of wanting to drop more balls after I bust without first having to withdraw from the vault.   By then I've usually cooled down. But more times then not I find myself in the black after dropping anywhere from 20-60 balls. Sometimes I have to drop 100 or more, but when your always winning something back it takes a while to dump all your crypto down theb Plinko table and go broke when you play this way.   Now the hard part. Deciding when to quit.  

Like any game if you keep playing you'll find yourself up against a losing streak that you don't have the funds to wait out.  That's why its important to take your wins and walk when you have wins to take.  

I'm new to the forum and hope you enjoy my post.  I hope to improve my post quality in future posts. So if you have comments or suggestions please feel free to share your feedback so I may be able to share more Stake experiences with you in the future.

Awesome article! For me, it all comes down to luck. Yes, it doesn't always have to bust, and if you manage your bank roll, you'll never bust. But that takes self control and discipline to achieve.

I think so too, every game must have a gap to be able to win, not just to stay alone, need a strategy to get the expected results, or if you feel bad and hit by a long red it's better to win your seed well you're calm, maybe today isn't your luck

Its just about luck in plinko, No matter how much you bet in plinko if you doesnt have luck in plinko max only like 9x or else, Try to change seeds sometime thats works to me

[Menang]

I have bad experience in plinko 😢, just not like the other games

I think the probability to hit in plinko is so low. Although it still depends on your luck and seed

The trick is getting in at the perfect time and hitting the big payout early on. The stretches of reds are long and as of late I bust before hitting anything decent. If the balls are falling identically straight down the center for two pages of bets I'll switch games for awhile now because too often I suffer through the reds hoping that the win is close.

Plinko has one of the highest house edge beside limbo... so yea watch how you bet when u play that game..

[artizykristy]

This is really an interesting article, I am not too interested in playing online except for the chellenge because in my opinion we really bet on luck if you want to get a big profit on the Plinko game.

I guess Plinko can also be define as one big Lottery with a little bit of rakeback from certain multipliers e.g. 0.2x and so on until you hit the big multipliers finally e.g

 1000x.

very well written! i admire the skills  for sure! both writing and gameplay which you wrote about.

and yeah etude, but the more tickets you buy to a lottery the more chance u have on winning.
so i learned in plinko its best not to bet big, but many small bets ... then again if u hit a big multixer on the first drop... then you kys... lool

lol.. Thats such a great comparisson.. lottery when you win its usually small and not enough to cover the money spent from buying tickets.. and winning the jackpot is almost unlikely... bahahaa gjgj.. rapebackkk.. stupid lag..

As for me its all about the luck and nothing else. But btw nice topic!

[bmg]

I am looking forward to reading more of your writing on the forum in future posts.   I am going to say the same as everyone else... well written indeed.

I just like  to press the bet button on plinko as fast as i can like I did a few days ago.    on plinko and I hit x1000 and won .03btc from .00003 btc and 2 ETH because it was during telegram giveaway. .

I feel that if you are to focused on a win then you will have a harder time getting that win.  Relax open your mind just chill and bet freely because its better that way.

Plinko is Awesome!
