As of the sayings, There are many harsh lessons to be learned from the gambling experience, but the harshest one of all is the difference between having Fun and being Smart.


being smart can be really profitable when you are playing poker or betting on sports
but being smart won't help you at all when we are talking about dice , actually smart people will just throw some coins on dice to have fun only or they won't play dice at all  Wink

Oh yeah it can't applied to those house made gambling type Smiley

Because I like gamble and I like simple so I choose dice

......
Nope. The simple strategy is Quit (forever) when you are ahead.

Easy to say but most people do greedy and can't control. I mean not just quit but the gambler need support from their family, the closest person that able to help them

Dices have lower house edge than other games. Compare to table games like roulette for example

yeah, general 1% house edge is lower than roulette, slots, and so forth, only blackjack has lower house edge than dice, but it needs more strategies, dice is very easy and simple to learn and play, what we need is only luck.
Nah dude, even with an amazing amount of luck you still can't win against those house edge, you would still end up losing to them.

Depends on the person. I know of a few people that are still up on casinos to this day and they've never been back. Of course there's very few people that can do that though.

But even with so much losing people still plays . It is not by their too much greed or they want high prizes. It is all about addiction like the one posting about people who still smoke. I can called it another form of drug.

Nah it's not an addiction. You are addicted only if gambling is your "center" of life. I lost 0.01 BTC at Primedice yesterday, I don't actually care about it, but am I addicted? I think not, if you gamble sometimes you are not addicted.

Your only looking at a tree and not on the whole forest. Im pointing those who are lost big amount and back again with the higher bet. Maybe I just mislead you in my post. Apology for that.

Yes your correct. Most of the people thinks they want to recover their money from where they lost. This is very foolishness but we need to accept this is the fact. However by end of the day they will loose even more. I have seen this kind of person.

I think people who still play dice because easy to play only change some settings like chance to win and how many you want to bet. there is just two choice High or Low button

i think its mostly because there is little to know or understand in order to play the game, high or low, thats all there is to it. it is popular because fundamentally, it is the simplest form of gambling out there that can be proven to have fair rolls, even if there is a house edge.

I I would say because it's really to easy to play and gamble with BTC, and dice is the most popular bitcoin gambling game in the world. People want fast and easy money and dice is fast and easy, that's it, maybe.

This question all relates to why do people gamble? I think everyone wants to earn ("free") money, right? Some of us are willing to pay for a chance to get more money, thus some of us are willing to gambling. Others are not, although they buy lottery tickets etcetera. And others are not willing to pay something (for a chance to win money).

And why people play dice in specific, I think because dice games are well known and quite easy to understand. (Online poker takes more knowledge for example). And, many dice websites can proove they're legit and fair. The reason why people use BTC for this gambling is because it's really easy, isn't it? I can't imagine a faster way gamble online than with using BTC for this. It works great on websites like Primedice.

Yea, that's the thing. People always want free money, I once got around 2 BTC from 0.4 BTC, but then lost it all. People won't stop with profit until they lose, and that's really bad. I don't play dice, it's kinda boring. I gamble daily on LuckyB.it and still have profit.. it depends mainly on your luck and greed.
