GKD09 Posted December 27, 2019 #1 Posted December 27, 2019 Not going to make this too lengthy, so a quick recap - I had lost couple of opportunities to have been the top 5 in the VIP challenge leaderboard and win a big prize, but was too unlucky to. BLACKJACK VIP CHALLENGE Hit a natural balckjack with two diamond cards. Was only looking to play a few hands (with around the min bet) and when I come below a certain amount I'd stop. But like always we continue hoping to win it back. After about 250 rounds I had lost close to 540k sats, and for some reason I got some feeling that I could recover by going 540k sats in the next round (due to a huuge red streak). I bet and just barely got a tie, and wasn't sure if I wanted to bet again but went for it anyway and bam I had hit the VIP challenge, unless the dealer got a blackjack too . It felt really nice for a challenge to go my way for once when I wasn't even planning to get the top few places. I was 1st at that time but a whale sent me to 2nd place (0.035 btc) which was still great. P.S I had lost 0.026 on Plinko VIP challenge just before this one. But VIP challenges are really fun and interesting I'd say.

I got extremely lucky for the BlackJack VIP challenge... started out with a bet size of 30,000 satoshi(s) with a meagre balance of only 300,000 satoshi(s). Almost busted at one point in time very early into my attempt, but managed to escape death and hit the required BlackJack with ~ 50 tries. 😁
Nicol3 Posted December 27, 2019 #3 Posted December 27, 2019 Wow! Thats a very nice story to read and I really believe you were very lucky that moment. Congratulations on your win at the VIP chanllenge. I am hoping someday soon I can accomplish that as one of my goals here. But due to the fact that many VIPs are veterans here at Stake, I don't think I will really ever come to that point as it is very impossible for me to beat anyone of you hahaha! I am not really so luck in terms of gambling though from time to time I may win some ample amount. ANyways again, Congratulations on winning at the VIP Challenge. I wish nothing but good luck in all your future endeavours here at Stake. Happy New Year and may 2020 bring you more success in your life, more wins at the casino, more prosperity for your whole family and most of all more love for you and the ones you love the most and profitability in your finances. Stay safe! Kudos!
Ayesha0770 Posted December 28, 2019 #4 Posted December 28, 2019 I'm still chasing to be vip player so ican join these challenge it looks fun and can't wait but maybe it'll take month I don't really play much at stake just hanging around at chat
williamshennie9 Posted December 28, 2019 #5 Posted December 28, 2019 That is awesome! I always lose on Stake's blackjack when I raise my bet. I can't help but think the algorithm carefully selects the order of the cards. Otherwise, I am just unlucky!
sheenazbay Posted January 12, 2020 #6 Posted January 12, 2020 we no one knows the results, sometimes when in doubt we lower the bet and it turns out that what is sought instead comes out, that's gambling. I failed several times on the VIP challenge, and I was only once at the top level on the VIP challenge when hunting tier slots and I hit 1544x on the slots
blueprints Posted January 13, 2020 #7 Posted January 13, 2020 Yeah thats the thing with these VIP challenges is that they can be very pricey and expensive if you run into bad luck. If i dont win within a certain amount of bets or loss then i just quit.
OsmaNN Posted January 16, 2020 #8 Posted January 16, 2020 yes, vip challenges continue every week. but like everything, it could have an end. I hope it always continues

Yes I usually do the same but this one time, having lost so much I just wanted to recover and leave the challenge, to my luck I did both at once, and then it struck that I had hit the challenge with quite a big bet.

Chasing losses will most likely be the cause of you losing even more money. You need to maintain your bank roll weekly, otherwise you’ll be finding that you’re depositing more and more money into an unprofitable habit. What I do is assess the challenge e.g. I’ll ask myself what will be the cost of me entering and how much can I expect back from it? If it is either highly risky or I can’t expect a large ROI from it, I simply won’t do it.

But at that moment I had to leave and I had an evenue amount of money had I lost it or won. I was going to win or lose that amount and for some reason I didn't even care. So in this case I didn't mind. But yes it's true, I say it often to other people as well. And with the VIP challenges I join the ones where I think I won't lose so much. But thanks
