What is the Anti-Martingale strategy?

By · Last updated 31 October 2026

A progression that raises the bet after wins (letting winnings ride) and resets after losses or after a set streak. Each losing cycle costs one base unit. Also called Paroli or reverse Martingale.

Why it matters

Kenyan example: on a KSh 200 bet, a 1.50x cash out pays KSh 300. See the term in action in our Aviator Kenya guide.

It caps the money you risk per cycle while keeping some upside from streaks.

In practice

The key setting is the streak cap: how many wins in a row you let ride before banking. Two or three is common. Each extra step makes the pay-day bigger and rarer. See Anti-Martingale (Paroli).

Example

KSh 100 at 2x wins KSh 200; bet KSh 200 next; reset after three wins.
