Gamble or not is the question ACR

I won money in tournaments several times, and at the end there is an offer on gambling.
What will happen to the money if I do not guess the color of the card?

Of course, you lose them. Or double up. In case of doubling you will be offered to play again. And you can lose them again.

My advice - open the settings of the poker client and turn off this feature. Totally. To this game is not even offered. I think it would be a shame to lose a win in a long tournament by one random mouse click on the wrong side.

Thanks for the explanations and advice, I will change the settings, as you said.

I have won more then I have lost doing it, but if you are struggling I would never do it, only if you can afford it. Good luck out there and keep grinding;0)

I've played it and the three times I've lost, I eliminated it in the configuration.

It's true, after spending hours playing a tournament it does not seem fair to lose what I won at roulette.

it is a 50 50 proposition. good luck if u r going to gamble

YOU WISH!!! yesterday I found a new secret, I chose black, won, chose black again and a JOKER turned up, WOW!!! A wildcard, you guess? (Just as I did) Nope, it's more like a Zero on Roulette, you lose, so the house keeps the advantage always

I decided not to lose and immediately turned off.

It seems to me that 50% of the win does not give an advantage, only nerves will spend the distance)

I think it all depends on a couple things

How much do you care about that $ you won ?

How much $ did you win?

For instance, if I spend 3 hrs on a free roll, but happen to only min cash for $0.40 or less, that's usually somewhere I might gamble because it's worth the 50/50 to double up and have $0.80 for the same amount of time spent. In fact it's much more worth it to me on ACR to have over $0.50 because that enables you to get into a small pool of players in the "on demand" and turn $0.50 into $5 or possibly more.

With anything over $1-2 in winnings I pretty much never risk, because I would rather buy in to a game with that $.

It's a form of unbeatable gaming especially when you include the fact the house has an edge,you are doing and insane coin flip with what likely is a lot of money from an MTT win and if you win you get addicted to push your luck with almost a guarantee of losing the 3 try. Turn off this feature.

I sometimes play Black / Red for only one round. Always choose black. For statics, while out of 22, 14 black fell out. I'm in the plus for now.

After hours of playing in a tournament, put winnings on Red? No thanks. Even if there is an honest 50%, it is not profitable for players to use this casino function.

There are times that I've won it and times that I lost. In the long run, it's better to not do it. You already cashed in a tournament and did well. To lose it on a flip is demoralizing.

I agree with you, especially since the appearance of a joker card is possible.

And motivation is an important factor for playing freerolls.

Dont let them take your money on red or black. You can find better spots to place your money . save your money on the double or nothing. Use that money for poker . get your money in with strong holdings.

I do not do it. With the way they hit you right out of the tourney is kind of a Dick move because if you're just clicking away to exit out of the table you could mess around and screw yourself out of some winnings. It kind of just pops up as a "heres a fun game(for us)

When this feature now came out I tried it. I figured if I min cash or cash really small in a tourney I can play this and try and increase my winnings. The worst thing to happen to me was I took $2.40 cash in ACR CC freeroll and ran it up to just shy of $20 on my second try of playing this game. Over the next two weeks or I would keep playing and ended up loosing out of $30.

I came to the conclusion that this is not worth it. Also I put a lot of time and effort into mtt even if I cash small it still as result of effort, work and time to just see it evaporate in one click is highly tilting.

It is better to save your little cashes and let it build than chase big bucks in this mini game.

Does anyone know if you can disable it? I always meant to ask an ACR Rep could never remember to ask them.

Well I never have done it, I'm not lucky with things like that, that's why I love poker....skill not just luck!!!

Read it. Explains what happens. One caveat to be aware of... There are not only back and red cards... Green jokers- auto lose- in there too. That said. Most wins from freerolls under $5... I pick a card. Why not? unless you're trying to practice BRM with dimes, actual dimes, not Gs. It's pennies and could be more pennies. But 52-53% of the time will be less pennies. I doubled a $1.70 win 5 times once..... then lost its all. on the 6th try. went from $1.70 to $54.40 to 0..... but had more excitement in the few seconds than in the 3 hour tourney before

Actually no, all we have to do is clicking no close table and then u will be out of there and still have your winning and send straight to your bankroll. That's what i did all the time after every top tens that i would get paid.
