And given the casino had a parameter to configure for this ratio, just 1 number (the ratio) is the obvious way to make it. It would be stupid to have two % fields where you type 50% in one and 50% in the other.

The more I think about this, the more I see this as an unintentional rigging. Again, if EH wanted to screw people over, switching the doubling to 48% success would be a much better way to do it. This was too damn obvious.
And the fact that it went to 1/3 points out exactly what Zoozie suggests above -- someone got into the software and punched in "wins/losses = 1/2", thinking that they were being fair but actually changing the odds dramatically.
Note:
1) This does not justify that there should be a switch where you can alter the win/loss ratio
2) I'm still not fully satisfied by the EH responses (and their first response should be pretty much disowned). Though the refunds and open auditing were obviously a good start.
