I had not noticed this house edge Shocked

Just checked on coinroyale's dice game

chance 6.5236%
payout 15.1758
bet 10

I rolled high, won and got 141.76, so 9.99 free credit are missing.

Does it mean that the house edge is (151.758-141.78)/(151.758/100) = 6.57% ?

With wrong bankroll management it can bankrupt.

it can always go bankrupt regardless of brm, brm just ensures that the casino is extremely unlikely to lose in the long run.

Probably "no" if the casino have large amounts of money and small max betting value.

Still if the player gets incredibly lucky (like if he wins 50times in a row) yes casino may go bankrupt.

If they are really out of luck then casino's can go bankrupt and if their calculations are flawed. Otherwise chances are too slim for that to happen.

It's not that "real casinos" are rigged; they most likely are not rigged unless you go to a shady underworld casino. The problem is, the bankroll of the casinos are far greater than any individual gambler, and furthermore there are steps taken to insure that a high roller doesn't somehow bankrupt the casino by having a max bet put in place. Added to that the inherent house advantage, and it is very unlikely that casinos will lose money.


That said, because the bankrolls of bitcoin casinos are likely much smaller than a real, full fledged casino in Las Vegas, it is much more likely to go bankrupt. Other issues are security. Will their coins get stolen? Will the owner run off with the funds?

 Primedice almost did Cheesy Depends on how bankrupt goes that is a way of going bankrupt. Otherwise it is very difficult to get a casino bankrupt. Slightest chance of betting big and getting it all but usually there is a max win and you can not just hope to get lucky at that level.

a bitcoin casino, like any business can go bankrupt.  it'll be up to the operator to manage its risks and to make sure that it has enough revenue/profit to cover costs.

The risk of casino going bankrupt is very low if you are talking about gamblers beating house edge continuously.

However, the casino could go bankrupt because of a hack/exploit/inside job, and the risk is not low.
For example, just a few days ago, Betterbets has lost 8 btc. The loss is not devastating to the site this time luckily.

Depends. If you don't put contingencies and certain rules in place, a whale could just come in and put a serious dent in your bankroll.

Yes they go backrupt all the time. THere are many bitcoin casinos websites and dice sites that went bankrupt and simply closed down or didn't return any players deposits. Its happens all the time. Most likely due to capital problems when a whale takes them down.

they design the rules in a way that you always lose so they won't go bankrupt any time

Yes obsoletely correct. So for any one heard about bitcoin casino went on bankrupt? I don't think so, only people you play they will go bankrupt. So play carefully.

Due to huge house edge the online casinos never loose.
If someone finds a vulnerability in the system then yes there are much chances of casino going bankrupt.

Even if its not rigged,a casino always profits,remember the house edge of many games? That's the point,you can't beat the casino except if you cheat them
