Question 1

Can Stake Analyzer predict exact winning Keno numbers or guarantee wins?

Accepted Answer

No, Stake Analyzer cannot predict future outcomes or guarantee wins. This is a statistical analysis tool, not a prediction system. Stake's Keno uses a cryptographically secure Random Number Generator (RNG) with provably fair technology, making genuine prediction mathematically impossible.  What our tool does is analyze historical data to show patterns like frequency distributions and hot/cold numbers - but these patterns are descriptive, _not_ predictive. Think of it like a weather station that records past temperatures: knowing it was hot yesterday doesn't mean it will be hot tomorrow.  In Stake Keno, 10 numbers are drawn from 40, giving each number a 25% chance of being selected - and this probability is the same every single game regardless of past results. Our heatmaps and statistics help you understand game patterns for entertainment and analytical purposes, but they cannot improve your odds of winning.

Question 2

How does the Keno heatmap visualization work?

Accepted Answer

The Keno heatmap is a simple frequency visualization that shows how often each number (1-40) has been drawn in your recent games.  How it works: - Counting Occurrences - Tracks how many times each number appears in your tracked games. - Color Mapping - Converts frequency to colors using intensity-based shading. Numbers with fewer hits appear lighter, while frequently hit numbers appear darker green. - Real-time Updates - Colors recalculate instantly after each game.  The heatmap uses a relative scale - with fewer bets (under 100) the color differences are subtle, with hundreds of bets (400+) the contrast becomes more pronounced.  Important: This is purely a visual representation of past results. A darker green number simply means it appeared more than others in your sample - it does NOT indicate future probability. Each number maintains exactly 25% draw chance regardless of color.

Question 3

What is the Heat Score and how does it rank number combinations?

Accepted Answer

The Heat Score is an algorithm for ranking number combinations (pairs, triplets, etc.) - completely separate from the individual number heatmap. It calculates a 0-100 score using multiple factors:  - Frequency Factor - How often the combination appears versus expected probability, using logarithmic scaling. - Recency Factor - Exponential decay based on games since last appearance. - Interval Consistency - Gaussian distribution comparing current gap to historical average intervals. - Cooldown Modifier - Reduces score for combinations absent longer than their typical interval.  The Math: Combines these factors multiplicatively, then normalizes to 0-100 range. Higher scores indicate combinations that are both frequent AND recently active with consistent intervals.  Display: Shows in the "Hot Number Groups" section with color-coded cells - green (high score) to red (low score), plus trend indicators (▲▼).  Purpose: Helps identify which combinations cluster together more than random chance would suggest, though this remains descriptive analysis, not prediction.

Question 4

How does Stake Analyzer track and analyze number combinations?

Accepted Answer

Our combination tracking uses correlation analysis to monitor which numbers appear together.  When you play Keno and numbers are drawn, the extension generates all possible combinations (pairs, triplets, up to sextets). For example, if numbers 5, 12, 23, 45 are drawn, we track: 6 pairs (5-12, 5-23, etc.), 4 triplets, and 1 quadruplet.  Each combination is stored with: - Count - frequency of appearance - Bets Since - games since last occurrence - Average Interval - typical gap between appearances - Heat Score - calculated similarly to individual numbers  The correlation data helps identify which number groups appear together more frequently than statistical expectation.  Keep in mind: In fair RNG systems, all combinations have equal probability. Any patterns are coincidental clustering, not predictive indicators. We track up to 500 recent games for performance, with older data automatically pruned.

Question 5

What do "hot" and "cold" numbers actually mean in Keno?

Accepted Answer

Hot numbers appear more frequently than the statistical average (25% chance) in your recent games, while cold numbers appear less often.  In our heatmap: - Dark green = Hot (appearing frequently) - Lighter shades = Cold (appearing rarely)  Keep in mind: This is purely historical data visualization. Due to the Gambler's Fallacy, many players mistakenly believe hot numbers will continue hitting or cold numbers are "due".  In reality, Stake's provably fair system ensures each number has exactly 25% probability every game, regardless of history. A number absent for 1000 games has the same chance as one that hit 10 times straight. Use hot/cold data for entertainment and tracking, not for predicting outcomes.

Question 6

What data does Stake Analyzer collect and where is it stored?

Accepted Answer

Zero data leaves your browser - everything is 100% local. Stake Analyzer uses Chrome's storage.local API exclusively, meaning all data stays on your device.  We collect Game Results Only: - Drawn Keno numbers, Plinko multipliers - Bet amounts (for ROI tracking) - Game seeds  We NEVER access: - Login credentials or balance information - Payment methods or personal details - Browsing history  Technical implementation: The extension uses content script injection to read game results from Stake's API responses. This data is processed and stored locally. No external servers, no analytics, no telemetry. You can verify this by checking our manifest.json permissions.

Question 7

How do I install Stake Analyzer manually as a Chrome extension?

Accepted Answer

Since Chrome Web Store restricts gambling-related tools, Stake Analyzer requires manual installation.  Step-by-step process: - Download the ZIP file from stakeanalyzer.live - Extract the ZIP to a folder (remember location) - Open Chrome and type chrome://extensions/ in address bar - Enable "Developer mode" toggle in top-right corner - Click "Load unpacked" button that appears - Select the extracted folder containing manifest.json - Pin the extension using the puzzle icon in toolbar  Important notes: The "Developer mode" warning is normal for manual installs. Updates require downloading new versions and repeating the process - your data is preserved.  The extension auto-activates on Stake.com, Stake.us, and official mirrors. For unrecognized mirrors, add permissions in extension settings.  Security: Only download from stakeanalyzer.live - this is the only official source.

Question 8

What Plinko statistics and patterns does the analyzer track?

Accepted Answer

Stake Analyzer provides comprehensive Plinko tracking:  - Multiplier Frequency Map - Shows how often each multiplier position hits in your session - Interval Tracking - "Bets Since" counter for each multiplier, showing how long since last occurrence - Cumulative ROI Graph - Real-time chart of profit/loss progression across sessions  The extension captures: Multiplier result, bet amount, payout, and risk level for each ball drop.

Question 9

What are Stake Mines payouts and max multipliers?

Accepted Answer

Stake Mines payout table - multipliers scale with risk and can reach millions.  Stake Mines Max Payouts: - Max multiplier: 5,148,297x (12 mines, all 13 gems cleared) - 11 mines, 14 gems = 4,412,826x - 10 mines, 15 gems = 3,236,072x - 24 mines (1 safe tile) = ~24x  The sweet spot is around 10-12 mines - enough risk for massive multipliers while still having multiple gems to reveal.  Stake Analyzer Pro Mines Features:  Live Heatmap - Tracks where mines land across your games on the 5x5 grid. Red tiles = more mines historically, green = fewer.  Smart Tile Picker: - Safest Mode - Automatically selects tiles that historically have the fewest mines - Random Mode - Randomly selects from the safer tiles  Built-in Payout Table - Full multiplier chart for your current mine count, from first gem to max clearance. Always shows your current multiplier and what the next gem is worth - no need to look it up.  Important: Mine positions are determined by provably fair RNG before you click. The heatmap shows where mines _have been_, not where they _will be_.

Question 10

What's the optimal number of Keno spots to play for best returns?

Accepted Answer

Optimal spot selection depends on your goals and risk tolerance:  - 4-6 Spots - Best mathematical balance. Moderate volatility with decent hit frequency. Most experienced players prefer this range. - 7-8 Spots - Medium volatility with less frequent hits but better maximum payouts. Good for balanced play. - 1-3 Spots - Frequent small wins but limited upside. Best for extending playtime. - 9-10 Spots - Extreme volatility with very rare all-number hits. On High difficulty, hitting 10/10 pays 1,000x - but the odds are roughly 1 in 8.9 million.  Stake Keno specifics: Stake _claims_ a 99% RTP (1% house edge), which would be much better than traditional casino Keno that often has 25-30% house edge. That said, no third party has verified this - you're taking their word for it. Stake uses a smaller 1-40 grid instead of the standard 80 numbers. Four difficulty levels (Classic, Low, Medium, High) let you adjust volatility.  The analyzer tracks your actual performance per spot count, so you can see your real results over time.  Remember: Regardless of claimed RTP, each spot count has negative expected value long-term. Choose based on entertainment preference, not profit expectation.
