I hope gambling platform will accept Tether (USDT) but it would cause trouble for them as regulators will claim that USDT is supposedly backed by USD and demands the operator to conduct KYC checks on customers depositing Tether. Another problem is USDT is audited and if the 'backing' fails, the gambling sites will lose a large amount of money.

I didn't realize that there are online casinos that accept Tether. ie. luckygames.co I'm glad that I came across this thread. I would rather deposit using Tether because at least then I'd know that my balance isn't going to plummet every time BTC dumps.

Nothing is supported by USDT for gambling, and while it would be cool to see something that would provide you the luxury of little to no price fluctuations in the cryptocurrency that you're trading with -- it's impossible to see this due to the regulatory issues of a gambling site accepting a currency which is supposed to be backed with US dollars.

If something like this ever was to happen (gambling sites accepting tether) the banks that are handling USDT reserves would be in an uproar and wouldn't allow it to continue. While some small sites may be getting away with it now, I can't see that continuing for the foreseeable future.

I play with USDT (tether) on LuckyGames.co with no issues.
Isn't tether just regular usd but for digital representation ?
Why not just gamble with regular fiat currency dollar instead of trying to find a place that allows you to gamble with the digital representation of it ?

I have never seen anywhere that allows people to wager with tether before but I suppose it makes sense because as soon as you put dollar into your website things gets too real and I am pretty sure the laws are way different than it is.

Consider that when you gamble with your fiat on places like pokerstars, they give you chips that represents dollars you have, so when you gamble with tether that is basically the same thing.

There are some advantages to gambling with tether on LuckyGames.io, if you want to play micro with five dollars, and bet really small, but at the same time don't want the value to fluctuate, than the minimum is is really small, one bit of a dollar.  Even proper casinos with cash might have a small betting range, the min and the max bet are fairly close together compared to crypto.  Also normal cash casinos always take your personal data and are famous for harassing people on the phone they provided,sending junk mail, etc.  I played with tether on LG for a bit, and I did like it, and since value of other coins was dropping, I could exchange it back to doge, and I would get more.  Also if a value of your coins in LG account increased by a lot, their value can be locked in by converting to tether, until ready to withdraw.

not sure about the legal part for USDT but I'm sure many people will prefer to gamble with it rather than btc or any other crypto
there are many sports bettors that I know would love to try some of the crypto gambling sites , but they take the price of bitcoin and other cryptos seriously so they don't feel that safe holding crypto
offering USDT gambling may be the best solution for them since they can try crypto gambling sites and hole USD at the same time

I see why Tether never make it in the gambling sites, have you seen the recent price of it right now it is just $0.990995 as of now, it went down when the bad news about china spread certainly we can see that bitcoin is in the down side too, but I think this kind of coins still need to go further.
Thanks for reply guys but I think major problem is legal problem on implementing USDT which is actually owned and backed by real cash in bank in anonymous bitcoin casino. Without strong KYC policy I don't think casino can provide USDT deposit and withdrawal feature.

Let see if there will be any casino that will come up with USDT as deposit/withdraw option in future or not. But if there will be one than that will be really amazing for all those gamblers who don't want to get fxxxx up in fiat based casino when trying to hedge against bitcoin volatility.

There are many bitcoin based gambling platform that supports other alts too but I haven't seen any that support Tether which is also like another altcoin but its value always tend to be be 1 USD. This will allow users to bet in terms of fiat without risking their money with neteller and skrill like platform and and playing with fiat based gambling platform which ask for complete verification.

What you guys think about this idea? Are there any platform which supports Tether?
Nope, i don't know any gambling site that accepts tether. i don't and won't use tether anyways. the reason why i won't use tether is because the price can slip below dollar pegged value(as YuginKadoya pointed out), the other reason is this  "There is no contractual right or other right or legal claim against us to redeem or exchange your Tethers for money. We do not guarantee any right of redemption or exchange of Tethers by us for money. There is no guarantee against losses when you buy, trade, sell, or redeem Tethers."  (from their tos)

I'm waiting for a better alternative..
