BG Jerry235 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I was thinking and theoreticaially, couldnt someone put in a ton of high value unusuals like team captains or coffin kits etc. in the pot, effectively giving them a 99.99% or so chance to win, regardless of the fact that it does not count effects, allowing them to possibly make super long win streaks in the pot with a slim to none chance of losing, and making tons of money off of other peoples stuff. I want to hear everyones opinion on that, as I thought it was somethat unfair. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaccinated Autist Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 realize that you will only GET 95% of the pot. so yeah,you think you think you will get your unusual back 100% ? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noot ♥ Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Don't like it? Don't play it. There is always a chance they would lose, it's not a guarantee that they will win. Furthermore, lotto charges 5% of the prize pool to prevent people from spamming expensive stuff and win all the time. Life ain't fair, get over it.

BG Jerry235 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 But if it was 95% of pot one unusual could be say 30% of the pot, they skim some items but you wont get your unuals taken unless its a gigantic pot because unusual almost always gonna be bigger than 5% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DejaQ Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 It's not 95% anymore they changed it to 97% But yeah just don't worry about it and don't play it. Don't give it revenue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomp Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Put the fees away, you can't get a clean 100% chance. you might win with 0,xx% chance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin the Chicken God Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 if you put in a high value items, you're risking like $1000 to win $100 for a 90% chance, not including the fees taken away by the website. If you lose once in 10 times playing, you go negative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilobacon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Filling 99.9% of the pot would be a great way to lose money, especially on something like a $5 pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
