Okay, imagine you’re in Argentina, you go to an online casino or even a physical casino and you’re offered a game of Plinko. You know, that thing where the ball drops from the top and bounces off a bunch of pins until it hits one of the cells at the bottom. If you’ve ever seen an American TV show, you’ve seen it. Only here it’s all grown up – real bets, real winnings.
I first tried Plinko when I was just looking for something new. Slots are boring, roulette – not enough nerves, and here such a seemingly simple game. But it’s addictive. Everything starts with the fact that you choose how much you want to bet, and how risky the grid – the more “rows” and higher risk, the cooler the prizes, but the chance to lose is higher. Like if you want to be calm – bet low risk, if you want to drive – bet high, but don’t cry later if the ball flew to the wrong place.
At first it seems that everything is random, just luck, but then you start to think – yeah, if the ball is thrown from this side, maybe it hits good cells more often? In short, the conspiracy theory and statistics begin. Although, to be honest, it’s still a lottery. But it’s fun. Especially when suddenly bang – and x100, and you sit with your mouth open and wonder why you didn’t bet more.
In Argentina this game is quite popular, especially at crypto-casinos – those that work with bitcoin or Justo. There, it’s often in the “provably fair” section – meaning that the game can’t be tampered with, everything is fair. Kind of. We know that.
Anyway, if you want something easy, not too fancy, and fun, try Plinko. Just don’t get too caught up in it. One time I got so caught up, I forgot the pizza was in the oven. Spoiler alert– it burned. And the ball still fell in x0.2. So think with your head and bet wisely.
