the main advantage is that you can earn a lot of money in a short period of time but there is a huge possibility that you will loose

It is not just my bad experience - I really enjoyed playing PrimeDice and I still play it from time to time but do not expect anything unreal. I just mean that winning is extremely difficult so it's better not to gamble OR - as you pointed - gamble responsively (rather hard to achieve Wink )

Most people knows that they can't win money from gamble but still they try very hard to win until they lose all there money that it very bad part in gambling. I don't see any advantages from gambling except some one using gambling for fun then it can be very entertaining to pass some free time and if one is lucky during this fun time they can win big money as well.

Ehm people play because you CAN actually win money from gambling. Some people win some lose. No one says you can't win money with dice, of course you can, you wont be able to do it forever but you can win a lot of money if you are lucky enough otherwise no one would play.

yup agreed! nobody said that you cant win in gambling, its just that you cant do it in a long time, some may win and some is going to lose.


yeah because always suffered more defeats than victories and very difficult to get a winning streak.

OP encouraged the comments to positive with gambling. But the negative comments still outnumbered the advantages. So the conclusion is still that gambling is bad.

gamble responsible and don't let greed overcome you in the end.

You are right but when it comes to PrimeDice or some other similar games it is not about greed but rather hope for finally reaching the minimum payout threshold which can only be achieved (in my experience) when you deposit some funds around that threshold - never could reach it using free satoshis provided by PD - I was close but all in all ended with nothing - just a waste of time... Smiley It is rather not the player to gain profit but the house... and what one wins at times - even large amounts - is just dust compared to profits of the house...

There are infinite advantages, but very few advantages for sane people.

The sane advantages are:
 - An extremely high entertainment factor
... And that's pretty much it.

If you're one of those insane people:
 - You can pay back a loan
 - Use the winnings to buy something
 - Etc

The insane advantages also have a huge risk factor to them, so only Gamble for fun, not profit. Winning is a side thing.
if you're relying on gambling to repay loans, its more than a bit possible that the person took out a loan to gamble, and likely way past being just a simple addict. there really isnt much to benefit from gambling, other than the possibility of profit and the few seconds of fun it might bring. if anything, gamble with small amounts when you can afford to, and know how much of a downward spiral gambling becomes so you dont fall into it later in your life.

If people use it in wright way then I see only advantage is they can have some fun with these games but if people use it as a tool to make money then it is wrong and they may go into lot of problems so basically it do not have any advantages to made profits but can use it for spending spare time to have a good fun.

That is also correct. Most of the people start gambling for fun only but this gambling slowly change their mind set to play for making money and finally they will addict to these games. I don't see any kind of advantages from gambling except people losing money to the gambling houses. All these are good as long as one use is in proper way and know when to come out from betting or gambling.

Only advantage is if the site you are using has a sign up bonus. Usually they match your first withdrawal or they give you free spins upon signing up to their site.
It does take along time to get that bonus back, that is something they don't tell you about until you sign up for an account.
Other than that it is mostly luck from then on in.

well to be honest, sport betting also do have their own house edge but it is not fixed and it is not shown. that is why some betting sites have better odds or lower odds all these is to ensure they too have their own share of profit.

but i think what he is trying to say is that sport betting rely more on knowledge as compare to dice which is base more on luck.

I saw people discussing only issues of gambling but no one telling about advantage. So many gambling houses are coming up so is there any advantages to player or houses?

•  Low house edges mean you have a greater chance of winning
•  Winning is fun
•  Gambling is (should be) fun!

Every one thinks like that low house edge and they can win but at the end house will win all your money. So do not play games based on only low house edge instead you can bet on sports where there is no house edge at all. So you have more chances to win if you know player and team strengths.

Agreed with you, its always better to go for sports betting as there are more chances of wins and making some profit. If you have good knowledge about sports and you can predict the results then no one can stop you from making the money. The best part of sports betting is there are no house edge as you said.

Excuse me but you don't know what you are talking about, just because there is no house edge it doesn't mean you will win more money on sports betting. Your odds of winning will be unkown but not necessarily better than games with house edge. To make profit in the long term with sport betting you need more than just knowledge of the sport you are picking to bet.

Hi Smiley

I tried my luck in PrimeDice... I deposited 0.01 BTC hoping to double it but I ended up with 0 very soon. When I played using free faucet option - I could earn up to 25x the original amount! Since the original was like 200 satoshis I could not even withdraw 5000 satoshis that I won so it again finished at 0... No matter how many times I tried, it always ended with just nothing... I have read about strategies on how to gamble on PrimeDice and I think these strategies are mostly a matter of coincidence and luck rather than a REAL strategy - none of them worked for me...
My tip on gambling? Do not gamble!

Cheers!

Thats a pretty bad tip.  Just because you had a bad experience and couldn't control yourself doesn't mean you shouldn't gamble.  It means, gamble responsible and don't let greed overcome you in the end.

you can say that the free bonus from some gambling site is a advantage
but for the actual gambling the gambler doesnt have an advantage, the only advantage
he/she can get is if he/she can control him/her self.
