That's the most important thing of it all.

You will get them next time or somewhere where you would like the process even more.

Why didn't you enjoy it, though?

Well, there is no excitement if you focus on wagering only without real gambling. The possible outcome is known if you continue to place bets on a 1.01x payout. You will lose a couple of bets, and you won't be able to recover the loss with your winning bets. You can wager a lot, but you won't be able to recover and win something by playing like this. So, I wanted to make it entertaining for myself and wager simultaneously.

Sometimes you will win, and sometimes you will lose. That is how gambling works. If you accept the loss and place bets on a 1.01x payout, that is up to you. I also do it, but I don't enjoy it. I believe other real gamblers feel the same as I do.

Well, you just spoke my mind. Gambling is a form of entertainment at the very first place, and if that is missing, you will not enjoy it. Although this particular leaderboard is still very profitable for lower ranks, and people might find the usefulness of 98% winning chances bets, but you can never be among the top rankers by doing this, because your risk to reward ratio will be smaller. For example, you can wager approx 100k with surely losing $1500 on 98% chances by making minimum bets, but is it worth it? Considering that the wager will not even secure 1st place.

I think anyone who wanted to participate in the competition should already consider this. It would be very complicated to manage, precisely because of the large number of people here on the forum interested. So, one strategy I had, and even mentioned here the other day, was to wait until near the end to see how things would go before deciding whether to try or not. But when I saw it, there were already many competitors. So I stuck to the casual bets I always make.
