small multipliers are even lower than displayed due to rounding up

you can try it out yourself with small bets of 0.00001000 🙂
no idea for the games you're mentioning, at least plinko has a honest display of the multipliers

Any numbers 3 after the decimal are ignored, this results in an even distribution. Meaning each number, 0-9 have a 10% chance of being the final digit.

If they were to round up, like most would expect, then 1 would be the last digit more than 10% of the time and each of the other digits would be less than 10%

 

it's a weird counterintuitive quirk.

 

edit: wait nevermind, what I just said applies to limbo not mines.

 

They're just rounding the number to make it easy to read.

1.08 is actually 1.076, 1.13 is actually 1.125, you get the idea
I'd stay away from this shady originals

For most mines multipliers 2 digits of precision was considered as good enough for display purposes , so for the few multipliers that actually have more than 2 digits to the right of the decimal point they are rounded when shown.

It would be "shady" if all the multipliers shown were bigger than the real multipliers to deceive ppl, thats is what you are suggesting.

But, for example 1.03X is actually  1.0313X , so you are paid "more" than what was expected.

Same happens for 1.12X that is actually 1.125X .

Same for 1.17X , you are paid 1.1739X.

Etc.....

thanks for the clarification, is there a way to know the exact multipliers for each case without having to manually place bets until encountering them?
