A phantom bonus is deducted from the player's balance at the moment he places his withdrawal request. For example: if a player deposited $100, received $100, played, and finished the wagering at $150. If the bonus is sticky, the player will be able to withdraw just $50. If the bonus is cash-able, then the whole balance is available for withdrawal.
In this example, the probability of losing the entire bankroll and being unable to continue the martingale is equal to the probability of 6 consecutive losses: (10/19) 6 = 2.1256%. The probability of winning is equal to 1 minus the probability of losing 6 times: 1 − (10/19) 6 = 97.8744%. The expected amount won is (1 × 0.978744) = 0.978744.
