Why not try something with a tiny bit of skill

Heh, those can be rigged too...

One of those minesweeper type sites, I sat there for 20 hours playing it in "freeplay" mode... hiiiiiiiiighly successfully, had a winning strategy, well seemed to stumble on it in 10 mins and spent the other 19:50 testing, honing, refining, retesting ...

Yah, you can guess what happened when actual BTC went in.  Roll Eyes

Not much, but it will probably seem like it in 10 years.

Bovada does the same bait-and-switch type method with their casino games. I would play roulette or craps and win a hefty profit. As soon as I switched to real money mode, I couldn't win another dime.

Would need some proof that behind the scenes shenanigans weren't going on

I understand that they'd have to incorporate a bit of luck into it, too, but when a BTC game of purely skill comes out, I'll be on it in a flash.

Damn. That's a lot of money. As countless people have mentioned, only gamble with what you can afford to lose. For me, I can't afford to lose anything haha...I don't know anyone that's profited substantially, although I'm sure there are some people that have.

Whenever I see titles like this, I automatically assume it's from a dice site.

There is so much crazy luck involved with dice. Why not try something with a tiny bit of skill or at least pick a sports team?

As I count.... 8BTC with 87% chance to win 1 BTC....
You had made 8BTC = 1BTC value.
You think 13% lose all. The real value is 1 BTC= 1 BTC so you suffer 13% lose 7BTC
Each single 1BTC suffer this percentage too... so we multiple this rate : 13*7 = 91% to lose 7BTC

You are THE WORSE gambler Smiley

Next time, don't ever ever BET WITH THE WHOLE AMOUNT FOR JUST ANOTHER SMALLER PART
BET EQUALLY !
50 - 50 is the best rate for gambling Smiley The host is not so stupid to give player higher chance to win than them.

Damn, that gotta hurt. How did you reach 8 BTC? buying with fiat? how often did you buy? at once? at what price did you pay for 8 BTC? and what where you thinking to dice it all? you should have put 1 BTC in Monero and wait a couple months if you wanted a more mentally sane gamble.

Yep, that's a thing people need to get out of in that case or not gamble altogether, it's called self-control.

I don't see anything wrong with gambling in general, the problem is there are these people who think they can make money off it and bet everything, it's like with investing, never put down anything you can't afford to lose, if this guy had done only 1BTC it wouldn't have been such a disaster.

Its addictive, he can put 1 btc, lose it all then repeat..

Of course. The goal is to have fun. And to get so drunk you have conversations with the local police that go as follows:

Excuse me, are you a police officer?
Why yes I am. How can I help you.
I have a question for you: Where am I?
You're in Las Vegas Nevada.
That's good, I'm not in Carson City.
Do you need some help?
Actually I do. I'm drunk and I need to find my hotel.
Ok. Do you know the name of the hotel?
No, but I can describe it.
Please do.
The hotel is big and green
I see. That would probably be the MGM Grand. Is that it?
Yes it is. Do you happen to know where it is?
Yes. Do you see that big green hotel across the street from us?
Yes I do.
That would be the MGM Grand. Cross the street at this bridge and go inside.
Thank you very much officer, I do appreciate the help.
Not a problem. Have a good evening!

Defcon 2014. Yes, I have conversations like that.
