Hi guys,

I need to share something with you.

My name is Mark, well known as p1AYER, 28 years old and I'm Ukrainian, currently living in Thailand.
From the age of 15, an amateur of the web development and servers administration.
I'm managing Luckygames with 4 servers and 30 cryptocurrencies by myself.
The design, program code, games and all the features you may saw at Luckygames have been written by myself.
I don't trust people too, that's why I never used to pay for a staff.

There were up to 10 huge attacks on Luckygames, that cost over 10 BTC for me. Despite this, Luckygames is still alive and will continue serving its players in the future.
And I'm not even upset, because it is ton of experience which I bought for just 10 BTC. I have 2 more businesses connecting to the crypto world, which allows me to keep Luckygames, even if it's not profitable.

Cells game is my favourite one on Luckygames. Before launching it, I didn't even thought that it could be easily cheated.
There were 156 cells available and 100 opened cells needed till the next round.
The player GeVP wrote a simple bot, that was opening cells using small bet amount (10 satoshis).
Once the bot founds, that the number of opened cells with zero multiplier was significantly higher than with 1.1+ multipliers, it started to place huge bets 0.01 BTC etc.
Therefore, the winning chance has been increased up to 70-90%. Whether it's attractive? - sure.
Take a look at his deposits and withdrawals history.

As he cheated on the website, the fast decision was to cheat on him.
I know, that was a wrong way. I hope, that he would take the profit and won't play there, before I made the new update including fixes.
Unfortunately he continued playing, tried to cheat the website once again using accounts:
GeVP - 0.78027867 BTC profit
GeVPq - 0.35623531 BTC profit
GeVPfair - 0.00231441 BTC profit
GeVP3 - 0.03462817 BTC profit
GeVP2 - 0.06195488 BTC porift

Finally, he made 1.2354144 BTC profit, started from 0.02877270 BTC.

P.S. Luckygames is my favourite website, it's like a hobby. I'm spending a lot of free time developing the website to keep it going well. And I will not let someone to cheat on it.

Sincerely,
Mark.

From what you've said it doesn't look like he cheated at all. You offer a game which has odds that sometimes become favorable for the player and he was smart enough to figure out the best way of playing the game. That isn't cheating. People do the same thing with blackjack when they count cards.

When a casino finds someone making a profit from counting cards they can ask the player to stop playing, or they can fix the game (making blackjacks pay 6/5 instead of 2/1 for example, or using a continuous shuffling machine). What they don't do is get the dealer to cheat when adding up the values of the cards, and declare winning bets to be losing bets. *That* would be cheating.

You made a mistake offering a game with incorrect odds. It isn't reasonable to cheat a player who is playing the game correctly. Fix your game and repay the player(s) you cheated.
