Topic: [ANN] BIT-POT.com - NEW BITCOIN GAMBLING (Read 5689 times)

Thank you both for kind words. Actually someone won quite nice 0.2 BTC few days ago, so the pot is halved   
@Supercrypt you're on top the list   when pot2 comes alive, you'll be the first one who know.   


NEWS: working on second pot but have to reconsider the concept a bit due to recent findings about provably fair game (can find details up the thread). so the new have to be a PF. 
I takes time, but doing all I can

Meanwhile please feel free to participate in POT1

I am also a bit glad that a new site was launched and I was unaware about it. I will try this too and lets hope we have a new stable site for long time. Best of luck OP with your site and PM me for any giveaways.

the design looks really cool to be honest im very keen on trying it out i hope that i will manage to win some huge pots out here

My screen is 1366x768. I use Chromium. Version 46.0.2490.71. Here's a screenshot of the page showing the 'pot games', the darker element you're talking about, and unreadable text above it, all when the browser is maximised:



Can you show me how it looks for you in Chrome/Chromium, on the same part of the page?

No, I can't read the text and understand your concerns. Web should not appear like on your screen ... this background should be only in 'pot games section' where is overlapped with another element to make the text readable.
Could you please post/PM me details of device you use (screen res. browser ..)?   

Anybody else having same issue with unreadable content?


I understood 'provably fair' is describing the relation between you-me (user-provider) like user can prove he made the bet, I can prove he made the tip....
But regarding the fact there is no hash exchange between us and you actually have no physical proof, makes  this game cannot be marked as provably fair.
I'm going to change it.

Thanks for comments

Hello skiingtiny, I can't confirm your tip either because all the old tips are removed from dtb (not archived) but refund is of course possible .. coming soon.

Honestly I have been counting with situation like yours can happen ( user send the bet but forgets to provide the tip ) and there is cca 5 minute buffer to provide the tip (not works when the tx is confirmed already).
It was tested multiple times but always using address with remaining balance and this is it. Because when user hit the button, the script checks if addy balance is sufficient to make minimal bet. Which in your case does not thus you have seen the 'GIVEN BTC ADD..' notice)
I'm going to think if the 'ballance check part of script' can be removed to avoid similar issues in the future. 

I'm sorry for complications and thank you for detailed report and please accept a small reward (30% of your risked amount) in form of additional refund as compensation.
Make new bet for up to 0.003 BTC and provide me the address.     

Thanks
 

 

Hello admin, i made a bet but i forgot to click proceed on input form before sending the transaction

this is the transaction id: https://blockchain.info/tx/1aa33e752bcde7769fa7c0d5edb7bdbc81bbd7070d0a014b042ef8ee5010a859

i made a 0.01 BTC bet with 1 tip bet... it was confirmed at block https://blockchain.info/block-height/392322
at block https://blockchain.info/block-height/392328 (+3 after my bet valid) i would win if i didn't this mistake lol
but i can't proof that i made a 1 tx bet..., but i would like at least the refund if possible please... i was not intend to donate that

on really i filled the form, but didn't clicked to confirm the bet... so arround 2min later i sent from blockchain the transaction and noticed that i didn't confirmed it lol... after that i tried to fix the mistake but it showed "GIVEN BTC ADDRESS BALANCE IS 0"

I'm talking about this kind of thing:



Can you read that text? Because I can't. Parts of it are white on white.


I don't know, but it doesn't matter. Miners can easily cheat the other players. Whether they do or ever will is beside the point. The game certainly isn't provably fair when one group of players can cheat another group of players.

that lottories  - biggest wasting of your time. and money too. 1000.02 gamblers betting and wins only 0.0001 

great comments, thanks for them

high contrast map in the background? Think I know where its from, will get rid of it.

1. didn't realize such a basic thing. Inexcusable, sure I have to fix this.
2. thinking you talking about the rules section? I didn't found it hard to read but yes I can remove it.   
3. Well, this is quite grey area for me and had been raised previously. Tried to make it harder (originally you were guessing the same block as your tx) but can't deny your hypothese so just provide you my point of view.

If you were own 25% of hashpower, would you bother and setup your miner? Wouldn't you have more important things to do? Make such insignificant profit, risking somebody make same tip as you and split the reward? True is, I can't say. Maybe all the winners were miners already and made a well prepared tip, but so far i'm not convinced it can be easy profit. When 25% of the time your prediction comes true you win every 4th block and each tip cost you 1mBTC so yea, after few successful rounds pot can run dry  ... I just need to learn a lesson, then I will end the game.

provably fair stands together for: both sides can prove the bet was made. I have DTB , user can made screenshots and for both there is blockchain.
Could ever be an online card game provably fair when some people know how to count?

       
4. Yes, exactly, jusr your TIP (guess) is not recorded on blockchain. It's just number in DTB so you have to trust me I have no reason to change it manually in case of your win.     

I find it impossible to read your site because there's a high contrast map in the background. But by selecting the text and copy/pasting into a text editor I was able to read:


1. BLOCKHCAIN is spelled wrong. It would be worth running a spellchecker over your site because I guess there are other similar errors.

2. Could you get rid of the background so the text is legible?

3. "NO CHANCE TO SCAM"? It seems people are betting on the future actions of the miners. Doesn't that give the miners a huge advantage? If I control a mining pool with 25% of the hashpower, I have a 25% chance of mining the block which decides whether I win the pot or not. I can make sure that 25% of the time my prediction comes true. You should remove the text "provably fair" (and even just "fair") from the site - since it isn't fair, let alone provably so. Miners have a huge advantage at the expense of non-miners.

4. What is this? "THE TIP? IN THIS YOU HAVE TRUST US"? I think you're using the word "TIP" to mean a guess of the number of transactions in a future block. Why do we have to trust you about that? Do you mean I could guess 10 and you could change my guess to 11, and I have to trust that you won't?

Sure, the last spot is yours.

 
then it's DONE, all refunds have been sent, hope I can come up with similar action soon.

Thank you all
