Its very interesting to see that the popular 'CSGO' gambling games such as jackpot and coinflip have not already plagued the bitcoin scene given its domina. I noticed a few bitcoin 'jackpot' sites pop up but they never really went anywhere. If you have no idea what I am talking about you can check the examples below;
Coinflip - http://csgowild.com/
You create a 'lobby' with a desired amount of 'dollars' or in this case emeralds which represent the value of a CSGO skin. Say a skin is worth $10, you will be given the equivalent in emeralds thus using them to bet against another live opponent, your odds are usually 50/50 where lets say the site takes a 5% cut.
Jackpot - https://csgojackpot.com/
The more commonly known 'jackpot' sites, its pretty much a pot, the more you put in the more percentage of a chance you get. When the pot hits its limit it selects one winner who takes it all, kind of like a lottery of some sort.
I can see how its so popular with skins, although they are worth real money people dont see it as that most of the time where as bitcoin is more of a currency, it feels more like you are holding X amount of cash thus real casino games seem to be a lot more popular.
I would like to get some of your views based on the two and if you would personally play them on a regular basis.
