75% dice odds: 1.32x payout, streaks and bankroll
Every number on this page is calculated for a 75% win chance at a 1% house edge unless a table says otherwise. A win pays 1.32x, you lose 25% of rolls, and a run of 6 losses in a row starts about once every 5,460 rolls.

The payout is (100 − house edge) ÷ win chance, so the same 75% chance pays a little more on a site with a lower edge. The table compares three edges. Return per unit is the win chance times the payout, which works out to 1 minus the edge at any chance.
| House edge | Payout | Return per 1 unit |
|---|---|---|
| 0% | 1.3333x | 1.0000 |
| 1% | 1.32x | 0.9900 |
| 2% | 1.3067x | 0.9800 |
Losing streaks
Each row gives the chance that the next N rolls all lose, the average number of rolls between such streaks, and the chance of seeing at least one within 10,000 and 100,000 rolls (1 − e−T/E, where E is the average gap). At 75%, 2 losses in a row is 1 in 16, while 10 in a row is 1 in 1,048,576.
| Streak | Chance next N all lose | Odds | Avg rolls between | At least one in 10,000 | At least one in 100,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 in a row | 6.25% | 1 in 16 | 20 | over 99.99% | over 99.99% |

Winning streaks
The same math with the 75% win chance. Positive progressions such as Paroli depend on these streaks, and the house edge is already inside the 1.32x payout each win pays.
| Streak | Chance next N all win | Odds | Avg rolls between | At least one in 10,000 | At least one in 100,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 in a row | 23.73% | 1 in 4.21 | 13 | over 99.99% | over 99.99% |
| 10 in a row | 5.63% | 1 in 18 | 67 | over 99.99% | over 99.99% |
| 15 in a row | 1.34% | 1 in 75 | 295 | over 99.99% | over 99.99% |
| 20 in a row | 0.317% | 1 in 315 | 1,257 | 99.96% | over 99.99% |
| 30 in a row | 0.018% | 1 in 5,600 | 22,395 | 36.02% | 98.85% |
Martingale recovery
A recovery progression multiplies the bet after each loss so that one win pays back the run. At a 1.32x payout the smallest multiplier that does this is 4.125x, which is 1 + 1 ÷ (payout − 1). With it, a win after any number of losses ends the cycle 0.32 base bets ahead, the same as a win on the first roll.
The table shows the bankroll, in base bets, needed to place every bet of an N loss streak, for 4.125x and for 2x. The last column is where the cycle stands if the win comes right after those N losses at 2x. Because 2x is below the minimum, a win after 1 or more losses leaves the cycle behind.
| Losses survived | Bankroll at 4.125x | Bankroll at 2x | Cycle result at 2x |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 5.13 | 3 | -1.72 |
| 3 | 22.14 | 7 | -4.44 |
| 4 | 92.33 | 15 | -9.88 |
| 5 | 381.9 | 31 | -20.76 |
| 6 | 1,576 | 63 | -42.52 |
| 8 | 26,825 | 255 | -173.1 |
What this chance is used for
75% pays 1.32x at a 1% edge: three wins in four rolls on average, each worth 0.32 times the stake.
One loss wipes out roughly three wins, so the balance curve tends to rise in small steps and drop in larger ones. A progression that tries to recover a loss in one win has to multiply the bet by more than 4.
The house edge applies at every chance, so none of these settings has a positive expected return.
FAQ
What does a 75% win chance pay in dice?
At a 1% house edge a 75% chance pays 1.32x (99 divided by 75). You win when the roll is under 75, or over 25.00 if you bet high. A 1 unit bet returns 0.99 units on average, so the expected loss is 1% of every bet.
How often do you lose 6 times in a row at 75%?
Any given 6 rolls all lose with probability 0.024% (1 in 4,096). Such a streak starts on average once every 5,460 rolls, so the chance of seeing at least one is 83.98% within 10,000 rolls and over 99.99% within 100,000 rolls.
How much bankroll does martingale need at 75%?
To win back every loss at a 1.32x payout, the bet has to grow by at least 4.125x after each loss. Surviving 6 losses at that multiplier takes 1,576 base bets; at 2x it takes 63. The house edge still applies to every roll, so no multiplier makes the game profitable on average.
