bumuming 50% , yes using the actual value (on average, i’ve won about 20% of the time)
base bumumption: u dont have leaderboard position at the beginning, so u need to win at least 1 flezz
lets say u lose once (bumume same bet every time) now u have to win twice to get ahead 80% X 20% X 20% = 0.032 = 3.2% chance of getting ahead this is pretty low
let’s say u lose twice now u have to win thrice to get ahead 80% X 80% X 20% X 20% X 20% = 0.00512 = 0.512% chance of getting ahead u get the idea
now this forms a geometric sequence. 3.2% + 0.512% + 0.08192%... = 3.2 / (1-.16) = 3.2/.84 = 3.81%
so overall u have a 3.81% chance of winning at some point if u play forever |
