Beginner from Bengaluru won nearly €1 million on Crazy Time in month: ¡°I caught some hot sessions¡ªand it worked¡±
A Bengaluru-based graphic designer turned beginner gamer, Arun P., stunned everyone by winning nearly €1 million on the live game Crazy Time¡ªall within just one month. His success wasn¡¯t pure luck, but a result of smart strategy, discipline, and knowing exactly when to walk away.

When 34-year-old Arun P. signed up on the 1xBet platform just over a month ago, he had no idea that this decision would completely change his life. In less than 30 days of playing, the beginner from Bengaluru won nearly €1 million (around ?890 lakh), delivering incredible results every day in the popular live game Crazy Time by Evolution.
In everyday life, Arun works as a freelance graphic designer. He¡¯s into music, reads science fiction, and collects vinyl records. In his spare time, he also does digital calligraphy, which he says helps him stay focused. ¡°I love balancing precision with creativity,¡± he says. This passion for analysis and thinking outside the box helped him come up with a unique gaming strategy.
Arun¡¯s story isn¡¯t about instant luck, but about self-control and a clear strategy based on understanding how the game works. ¡°I came across a Crazy Time stream in a Telegram channel where people discuss live shows and betting strategies. I watched a few of them and joined in just out of curiosity. It was love at first click,¡± Arun says.
Arun¡¯s strategy: bonus grid and catching hot sessions
Despite being a beginner, our hero approached the game with the sharp mind of an analyst. ¡°I noticed that the bonuses sometimes come one after another, then there¡¯s nothing for a while. It¡¯s like waves. So I decided to catch those waves,¡± Arun said.
Here¡¯s how his strategy worked:
- He kept a bonus history table in Google Sheets: time, bonus, host, and number of spins between wins.
- He only bet on bonuses¡ªCoin Flip, Pachinko, and Cash Hunt.
- He played only during ¡°hot hours¡±¡ªwhen he saw in the stream or history that bonuses happened more often.
- After each big bonus, he took a break for at least 30 minutes.
- He split his daily bankroll into 10 blocks of 20 spins each and never went over his daily limit.
For a month, Arun consistently won between ?300,000 and ?1,000,000 almost every day, sometimes in 15 minutes, sometimes in an hour and a half. One of the biggest bonuses¡ªPachinko with a x500 multiplier¡ªgave him over ?4,500,000 in one win.
¡°I don¡¯t see this as work. It¡¯s a game that needs thinking. When the game isn¡¯t giving, don¡¯t push. When it does¡ªknow when to stop,¡± Arun says.

Responsible gaming as foundation of steady success
Despite his impressive results, Arun stays balanced. ¡°I set a daily limit for myself. If I lose, I don¡¯t play until the next day. If I win, I don¡¯t get carried away. Crazy Time is a show where you need to know when to leave the stage,¡± he says.
What's next?
Now Arun plans to invest part of his winnings in a small design studio in Bengaluru, help his parents fix their house, and take a trip to Iceland ¡ª a country he has always wanted to visit. But first, he bought his parents a long-awaited air conditioning system.
Irina Kapoor, a representative of the 1xBet brand, said: ¡°Arun¡¯s story is a clear example of how modern live games like Crazy Time attract players not just by excitement, but by atmosphere, strategy, and visual experience. That¡¯s why it¡¯s not only luck that wins, but also skill. The most important thing is always to play smart.¡±
