Do I remember reading that you risk up to 10% of the bankroll per game? That seems very dangerous for a game with a 1% house edge.

Yeah, that's right. Although there is *also* a 1 BTC max bet, so it's not as bad as it would first seem -- but my bankroll simulations are still quite terrifying. I can promise you, if someone starts placing max bets -- my heart will be racing faster than theirs.

My total savings is about ~77 BTC, give or take a little -- so risking just 1% of that isn't really an appealing max-win at this stage. To be honest, I'm pretty ok with losing up to 10% in a single game -- I just hope that it's because my site has continued to grow in popularity -- I'll eventually recuperate my loses. But if not, I'll survive -- life is cheap here (Guadalajara) and I also work a part time job.

But yeah, there's definitely a real danger of someone putting a significant dent in my bankroll. But hey, I guess I'm just a gambler at heart. Grin At least this time the odds are with me
