Ah I see.. Your welcome! You deserved it Dan
Hi thecoinjournal, what do you mean by will a lot of BTCs?
probably a typo, he meant "wiTH a lot of BTCs...".
and yes it is possible, if a players bankroll is big enough compared to the site ones, he can actually fuck the house.
read up on the nakowa story at just-dice if you're interested in that.
never underestimate variance and a huge bankroll
edit: i messed up that quote thing somehow...
Ah I see, I got it
Hmm, Nakowa story is quite interesting. I agree with you that it is a battle between variance + huge bankroll vs. the house edge. I see bitcoin dice game this way:
- House: Receive lot numbers of bets and wagers because of the near instant result, mathematically house edge will take over variance. Profit should be more or less around wager * house edge, but theoretically not far.
- Players: Benefits from high variance because of the very low house edge compared to offline casino
The case of Nakowa will be very very difficult to happen in real world casino with higher house edge, but in this bitcoin dice with lower house edge it might be possible if the site's get unlucky. However JD still has positive profit even after Nakowa won high percentage of total BR, this is house edge effect. I wonder, if we take out Nakowa's winning, how much is the site's profit.
