Probably, this is not going to be a good idea if anyone thinking to win prizes from the one million dollars race by using wagering strategies. I have only done my normal gambling activities and wagered $21k in the last 7 days, now my rank is above 5k. I thought to use the wagering method to have a better position, but I don't like to do it anymore. Because, it is so hard to compete with the players in Stake wagering contest. And it's not possible to stay in the top 5k users list unless you are a big whales. Anyone else having a better position in the race?

I'm not wagering too much since the beginning of December, my wagered stats for this one million race is $10k only and I'm not even in the top 10k players lol.
It shows that there are so many players are wagering recently, maybe they are wagering to collect some lottery tickets for the one million lottery only.
Wagering contest is not for recreational gamblers like me obviously, so I wont compete for it.
For a promotion and a popular site like Stake then expect that there would be lots will really climbing up for the leaderboard because you know on what is on stake or prize.
Expect that whales would really be having the advantage and to those mid to high wagerers or players who could really afford on spending lots just to have those
chances or odds on hitting that lottery too thats why i dont really pay up attention much on contest like this yet odds of winning is close to impossible
