great concept. Why is the limit 1.0 SBD?
I, @chansetheguy, personally developed and also bankroll @gamblebot and I plan to raise the maximum bet over time. The maximum bet amount is structured such that the bot will not need to be taken down for a significant period of time due to insufficient funds. Currently, the bot is programmed to refund all incoming bets should it run low enough on funds that it could not pay a winning bet.
In my mind, the gambling service should be consistently available 24/7 to "scratch that itch" rather than issue 'no wager' bet refunds should someone go on a great winning streak and win the entire @gamblebot wallet. This would essentially translate to players being penalized for being lucky. There is no way to completely safeguard against this, as you could win 1000 times in a row if you were very lucky, but I am carefully structuring the maximum bet amounts to ensure you are always able to play/I am always able to pay you for your wins.
