Mostly poker. I am more familiar with poker. However its nice to try dice also. Poker is the most played games. Its quite a mind game but most likely it depends on your cards. You must also be mindful of your opponent's move and of course the funds you have. Poker is exciting and enjoyable. You can control your funds to bet it all or just fold and hold.
For me poker is a tough game to play I am not good at playing poker game. But this is good time pass game here how the cards are important like that luck is also important if you are pro in this game and get bad cards and good opponent you will lose your game. So luck is also important.

I have never played using bitcoins but yeah i play poker a lot by my other money in casinos. I leave bitcoins out of the gambling and use it for trading and stuff and i think that works well for me .
Knowing which are we are comfortable is very important, trading really gives more chance of success than gambling so let's focus on it.
I myself is also a trader and I am a big loser when it comes to gambling even if t's a skilled based games but just like your experience, I made good profit in trading so I focus on it but that does not make me stop gambling but this time I treat gambling as a way of having fun or for full entertainment purpose only.

If you ask me then the only real game in the gambling world is Poker. All others are just kid’s play. In poker, a gambler gets the chance to use his skills. He can use his analytical skills to catch anyone’s bluff. This is why many gamblers love to play poker but it loses its essence when played online.

Poker is fun only in the real environment when the opponent is sitting right across the player. Poker is just love of mature gamblers.
There is no doubt about that. Gosh! Most times when I see these guys playing in the casino and how serious they always are, with the way they look at themselves, trying to study every moment, trying to call bluffs and all that, I usually feel I am this crazy poker guru. Grin ... If wishes were horses though, beggars will ride. This is one hell of a game but compared to the other gambling game, it is not easy at all.
I agree too , poker needs some skills whereas others its just pure luck so yeah only those who are mentally strong and have the ability to play good strategies at right time can win amount unlike other casino games.

Poker games  might be tough, but its more fun when its a challenging one and when one can use his brains beside being lucky. Dice is kind of easy but if you play with high edge, you need to be too lucky. For beginners sports is easy as often its quite easy to predict actually, unless the the one you bet upon plays miserably worst, and that happens, but its easy enough than Poker and all.
Poker games are actually very tough and you really need some level of understanding, skills and strategy to play that game. It is not a game for the weak hands most especially if you are playing against other good poker players. As much as it all still balls down on luck, you still need some of those things I have mentioned above.

All the above, when it comes to other games like dice, it is just luck base and nothing else. You can only use strategies like martingale to maybe give you some longer chance of consistent winning, but it is still not guaranteed if luck is not on your side, which is why most people just go the dice, plinko, or roulette way.

Given the house edge, martingale will only lead you to an ultimate loss in the end. There is no way to make consistent winnings at dice games unless you can rig the odds in your favor somehow. But that would have nothing to do with gambling, obviously. Dice is not for profits, it is for your pleasure.

On the other hand, as others have already said, poker is different in this regard but I'm still curious if online poker is not being played by bots nowadays just like it is with chess. Does anyone know such bots? Do they really exist or there is something which makes them impossible or prevents them from playing more or less decently in comparison to humans?

Games like "POKER" was need a high IQ because if you play this game without any strategy on how to defeat your opponent, I guess everytime you play this game you have no chances to win.

Poker game is not like slot machine or rolling dice that all you need is luck to win the game, because this game you just need to think many times before you made a decision.

Actually for me poker is a mind game, that sometimes you just need to bluff your opponent to defeat it on the battle.

Actually, there are some poker games formats that give a higher chance to weak players, even if they play against pros. In sit and goes and MTTs, luck plays a bigger role than, say, playing NLHE Full Ring.

Apart from that, casinos have been implementing more casino-like poker games, like spins, which are more based on luck and leave less room for poker players’ skill.

I prefer to choose is poker than other casino games online. Poker is the best gambling online
because we play it with other people.

Yeah and you can actually win money vs other people as long as the rake stays low enough or the players are bad enough.

We all know how much bitcoin users love dice but I think even poker websites ( bitcoin supporting sites ) also generate same or even more revenue than dice sites . Do you guys play only dice or only poker or both using bitcoins ?


Absolutely,for me both of them is nice to play the poker or other online casino games,they have a different in  style in terms of playing,but for me whenever i have a feeling to whom i lucky to play now, thats's kind of games i used to play,as long as i gain profitable, whatever kind of  gambling games is that i go and enjoy that kind of recreation.

The thing is that you have to specifically go to a poker site or casino site than caters poker before you can play. Dice though can be founf anywhere evem in exchanges so people access dice a lot more easily.

O think a lot of users or players like poker more than dice just because it adds a whole of dimension whenever you are okaying it. It is also ideal because there is a lot kore enjoyment there I think while prizes might be higher in dice that is something that cannot be duplicated
The key difference between poker and dice is that,anyone could play dice and you really do not need to have any knowledge about the game and the win percentage is all about luck and that is not the case with poker,if you are good at it,then you could win more rather than playing with luck alone and that is the main difference.I like to play dice than poker but i like roulette too.

Probably poker is still the best to play, I mean this is the game that suits me that much. I love playing poker, and I think that poker is a great game where you could play with other people and win a lot of money. But I am more on the physically playing the game.

I mostly like to play Roulette, and sometime the slot machines.

Roulette is simple especially when you apply martingale strategy to the colors, either black or red or the numbers  either even or odd. I've made so me cool money that way but you must have an unlimited bankroll to be successful with martingale .
Martingale never works on any games , believe me its just luck that you came out victorious . I prefer other strategies though ( there are tons of strategies for roulette ) .

I doubt he is telling the truth. When you apply martingale what you do is the following:

You bet $10 (for example), and you lose, so you double your bet. In that second bet you are putting $20 on the table but you have already lost $10, so you have spent 10+20= $30. If you win, you get $40 but you spent $30, so you only won $10 (actually a bit less).

If you lose that second bet, you double it again, but again you have already spent $70 and if you win you will only get a net profit of $10.
So, what you are doing is risking more money every time, actually doubling your risk, to make little profit.

It would be interesting if he explains how he made so much cool money using martingale.


Hint: he said: "you must have an unlimited bankroll to be successful with martingale" which is why I mentioned you need to have accumulated over 2048 satoshi (and start playing with 1 satoshi). My modified version requires a minimum balance of double that.

It depends how safe you want to be. with a minimum of 2048,  would give you the chance to survive up to a 12x losing streak, with 32768 staoshi you could survive a 16x losing streak. with 0.00524288 BTC, you could survive up to 20x losing streak... and so on. All assuming your starting bet is 1 satoshi.

So he's not necessarily lying!

If he had lets say he has the following:

balance: BTC27:

starting bet: 10 satoshi

He should be able (by average) to survive a 29x losing streak. The probability of losing 29 times in a row is veeeery very unlikely
It's true that it's highly unlikely and no I didn't think he is lying too but howmuchever unlikely it might be in gambling but it will still happen . I have seen people on dice loosing 35 times in a row with 2x .

Both using bitcoins.
There are time when dice games gets boring and you want something else to do and vice versa with poker. FYI I do actual betting and not relying on bots.
So I will need to look for something new. I even played roulette using different coins just so I could try something else.
I think this is one problem of every gambler. Instead of losing all your money in one game out of boring circumstances then just switch to enjoy it more.
It will be good if one gambling site can hold a lot of games too
