Initially designed for roulette, the double bet strategy adapts exceptionally well to краш-ігри and has gained significant popularity among experienced players. It’s important to note that although the strategy appears appealing, it certainly doesn’t guarantee a 100% win. Let’s examine it closely.
How the Double Bet Strategy Works in Crash
The double bet strategy relies on gradually accumulating winnings while risking minimal amounts of your own money. The core idea is to always place minimal bets and capture sequences of successful multipliers.
Here’s the player’s sequence of actions:
- Minimum Bet: Always start with a minimal bet and select a multiplier (usually 2.0 or higher).
- Reinvesting Winnings: After a successful win, don’t withdraw the winnings but instead bet them again in the next round, aiming for a high multiplier.
- Withdraw Winnings: Decide beforehand after how many consecutive wins you’ll collect your accumulated funds.
Thus, the player continuously risks only the initial minimal bet, with subsequent bets effectively funded by the casino.
Example of Using the Strategy
Suppose you choose a multiplier of 2.0. Here’s how a typical round might look:
- First bet: 1 coin at a 2.0 multiplier → winnings of 2 coins.
- Second bet: 2 coins (first-round winnings) → winnings of 4 coins.
- Third bet: 4 coins → winnings of 8 coins.
- You collect the total winnings of 8 coins.
Ultimately, you secure substantial winnings by risking only your initial bet of 1 coin.
Probability and Risk Analysis
At first glance, the strategy seems highly attractive, but it’s important to consider the probability of consecutively hitting your chosen multiplier:
| Attempt | Множник | Total Win | Probability of Success | Average Frequency (Rounds) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2.0 | 2x | 0.99 / 2.0 = 0.495 | 1 ÷ 0.495 = 2.020 |
| 2 | 2.0 | 4x | 0.495 × 0.495 = 0.245025 | 1 ÷ 0.245025 = 4.081 |
| 3 | 2.0 | 8x | 0.495³ = 0.121287 | 1 ÷ 0.121287 = 8.244 |
| 4 | 2.0 | 16x | 0.495⁴ = 0.060006 | 1 ÷ 0.060006 = 16.666 |
| 5 | 2.0 | 32x | 0.495⁵ = 0.029921 | 1 ÷ 0.029921 = 33.43 |
These figures are based on an assumed 99% RTP (such as in BC.Game), with probability per round calculated as RTP ÷ multiplier. “Probability of Success” reflects the chance of hitting the multiplier consecutively from the start. “Average Frequency” shows how often that success might realistically occur — it’s simply the inverse of the probability. For example, if there’s a 0.060 (6%) chance of a 4-win streak, you can expect it roughly every 1 ÷ 0.060 = 16.67 rounds on average. This 6% is derived by multiplying the single-round success probability four times: 0.495 × 0.495 × 0.495 × 0.495 ≈ 0.060. Similar calculations are used for other rows in the table. You can expect it roughly every 1 ÷ 0.060 = 16.67 rounds on average.
As you can see, hitting a 2.0 multiplier five times in a row is highly unlikely, although the potential winnings are huge relative to the risks involved. You can always stop earlier for a more moderate risk.
Advantages and Disadvantages of the Double Bet Strategy
Let’s compare it with the famous Martingale system:
| Martingale (Crash) | Double Bet (Crash) |
| – Frequent but small wins | – Infrequent but significant wins |
| – Rare but significant losses | – Frequent but minimal losses |
| – Fear of losing a long series of bets | – Awaiting a large winning sequence |
Essentially, the double bet is a “reverse Martingale,” with the primary risk being limited to the minimal initial bet.
Conclusion and Recommendations
The double bet strategy is excellent for those who enjoy gambling without risking large sums of money. However, it’s critically important to predetermine your limit: after how many consecutive wins will you cash out? Remember, consecutive successful multipliers occur relatively rarely, and waiting for the perfect sequence requires patience and discipline.
Therefore, the double bet strategy isn’t a magical solution to consistently beat the casino. Yet it offers a balanced risk-reward ratio, enabling controlled spending and enjoyment of the gaming process. Use it wisely, strictly following your established rules and avoiding emotional decisions that could override logical calculations.
