If your goal is to make 1 Btc profit, for example, it does not matter what strategy you pick, the odds will end up the same in the end. If you pick the low risk low reward strat, you will have to play more rolls in order to get to the goal so in the end you end up having the same odds as the other strategy

This is incorrect. There are better and worse strategies.

How can there is any better strategy except doing martingale? But you really need a lot of balance for sure to recover your bet. And I think worse strategy is just because you are no luck

Maybe you didn't understand what I said.

I am saying that some strategies are better than others for doubling your bankroll. Astargath was saying they are all the same, and all have 49.5% chance of success. He's wrong.

I am pretty sure dooglus knows what he's talking about lol. He does, afterall, own his own dice site. I think the point he's trying to make, by saying there are better and worse strats is that some strategies involve ridiculous risk.

To provide an example, imagine trying to bet at a 1% win chance, and doubling your base bet on every loss. That's sounds pretty crazy. Worth it? Maybe if you're lucky and have the balance to support it. Is it riskier than normal martingale with an appropraite base bet? Certainly.

Just remember it all boils down to your luck. The same person who would have lost on the normal martingale could have won on a much riskier strategy.
