It is still cool to win a 1000x though, as long as you have the money for it and you can do it, everyone can actually afford to test it out, of course you should be willing to lose a lot of money, if people can have 10+ losing streaks on 2x chance to win, think about what could happen if you get unlucky in 1000x situation, you could literally have 10k+ bets with zero win and that wouldn't be shocking result at all.
Both Plinko and lotteries are games with a higher house edge when compared to games like Baccarat and Blackjack which is why it's best to play with small bets in both Plinko and lotteries.
It's better to bet big amounts in low house edge games in order to beat the house in the short-term in my opinion.
