I used to play dice because i thought i could make profit, stable profit from it, obviously i was wrong, you can't win in the long term, that was my only purpose of playing dice, other than that i do not find it fun or entertaining unless im winning money, i would not play dice if money was not involved, so my question is, why people still play? Im sure 90% of people know what your odds are and that strategies don't work, what is their purpose? Do you guys really have fun playing dice? Watching a number appear on the screen?

I have not played dice for a few months now, like you I used to like it because I could win some money but when you lose which you will, that out ways the winning good feeling that occasionally comes your way.

My guess is some don't understand that you will lose over time, some feel they will find a flaw and win big etc etc a lot might even have fun however hard that is for me to see.

No fun in it for me anymore, to simple and boring when you are not winning.

The only type of gambling that I can make my own autobot.

Other sites even forbid non human players

You are correct on this point.
Most of the gambling sites don't allow you to use bots when gambling except  for dice.

maybe many people still play dice
because just for fun or like playing in gambling.

I guess all games is also for fun too, most of them take it too serious will end up with losing though  Grin


I believe why they still play dice is because dice is a simple and easy gambling tool, Compared to those games with complex rule, dice is easy and fast, you know some people are just gamblers.

Yes its true dice is easy and you can test your strategy there too, but I dont think other games will be that complex too because they will make the game as simple as people want to attract people

If you think you can earn stable amount of money from playing in casino, think again. It is not gonna happen, definitely not with Dice.
I heard about pro poker players or incredibly skilled blackjack players who earned quite a bit money from playing in casinos,
but this is impossible with pure gamble game like Dice. Dice is simple, that is the main point a lot of people are playing it everyday.

Why do people gamble at all? You don't win in the long run by gambling either.

At the end of the day, some people see it as a form of entertainment. The less smart of those think that they can make a bit of money by playing it smart, which you technically can, but the trouble is most of those people who think they can play it smart don't play it smart and lose all their money Wink

As people have said in this thread repeatedly, the biggest selling points of dice game are its simplicity and low house edge, which make it attractive to casual gamblers.

The only gambling sites I know that have chat box are dice sites. I think it explains a lot, you chat and have fun and wants to go back and lose bet more

There are in fact some other gambling sites out there having an active chat.
Just to name a few examples, there are NitrogenSports, bustabit and luckybit.

I play dice usually when I have some BTC which I am not afraid to lose, when I want to gamble fast and lose or win to more significant amount.

I like it because it's fast. No need to wait a result like in roulette or in similar games.

Why do people still smoke?

+1 great question which is probably has the same answer on question why people still play dice, yeah because they are addicted Smiley but of course there are other reasons  such as simple/easy to play, fast outcome, etc. But IMHO dice is a boring game, no fun at all Smiley The most fun part on dice game is that when I could hit the max multiplier like 9900x even only with 1 satoshi bet LOL

I gambled a bit when I was using faucets just to see what bitcoin was about, but that went on for a few weeks maybe and then I stopped.  It was fun for awhile, but as you said, long term the odds are against you.  It's not even really fun for me anymore either.  I'd rather go outside Smiley

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
yeah, it is simple enough and a no-brainer betting game doesn't really need serious strategies at all

1. Dice is really easy to play and run. Easy to understand and easy odds, its just very easy
2. Dice is old and there are many reputable sites and scripts for it (like mine  Wink, but with other types of games there aren't good sites for it and people don't trust.

Dice Game Gives us some knowledge, This can give us a sense of control, or at least a solid understanding, which can make games more fun.
