New Antifreeze earn method

Seriously, if it takes two wins to get one antifreeze scoop, why not make a double down give you one automatically? Its an even higher stake bet than what you began with, its a huge risk, and if anything it would encourage riskier plays and maybe a few of the bad players would lose some flezz. |

Because doubling down on 11 is usually a good bet. |

Right so because of the slim chance you actually get an eleven, we should totally not allow this…got it. Got any other reasons? |

Take a quick look at the number of situations where doubling down is your best bet. Log in to see images!
True, there are far more situations where doubling down is a dumb thing to do. However, rewarding the double down in advantageous situations isn’t rewarding risk, it’s rewarding optimal play.
I always felt rewarding dumb play made more sense, but would be difficult to implement. Besides, winning on a double down has a nice enough bonus to justify playing another hand. markchd edited this message on 11/06/2008 5:52AM |

Actually … that card bumumes the dealer peeks for blackjack. Gamblebot will only show his blackjack after you have doubled, so doubling down is bad strategy (don’t do it on 11) much more of the time. The rest of the card should still be good, though.
Now I think you have a great idea. I want my bonus scoops. Log in to see images! markchd edited this message on 11/06/2008 6:03AM |

so you want an antifreeze scoop for every double down played? or only when gambling for at least 10.000 flezz? I don’t need it |

When doubling down for the 10k/25k.
It’s betting twice on one hand, and doesn’t guarantee anything except 1 more card only.
You could get the 21 you need, you could get a 2 or 3. So signed. |

Also, a 25k bet entails 2.5x the risk of a 10k bet, but it carries the same reward. Odd. |

If you are gambling for scoops there is never a good reason to double down – it eliminates options. |

Hence why making it so you earn a scoop for doubling down makes it even more of a brain-dead move. Remember, anti-freeze is earned for doing stupid things, like committing suicide. |

btw about the 10 scoop per day cap, if I gambled to get 10 scoop in one day, then an hero 3 times do I get 11?
in other words does the cap only apply to gambling? |

No you can only gain 10 antifreeze scoops a day, regardless of source. |

For those who are rich, rich, rich, this would be quite cool.
But then they would become rich, rich instead.
After 10 antifreeze scoops they would only be rich.
On the next day, after gifts they would become rich rich rich again so the happy cycle of losing flezz could continue.
Summary: great Idea |
