Whats your first choice when it comes to gambling and why?
What would you choose dice or fancy slot machine or another game?
My pick is dice because of fixed house edge and more advanced automated betting.

Dice games are more good

When I want to have some quick fun I prefer to play slot games because I am a sucker for flashy graphics even though I know I will never win one of those huge jackpots  :D Dice gets too boring for me after a couple of spins. And the slot rewards are just so much more compelling in my opinion.

Quick fun? I think dice have a same condition too, quick and fun when you roll it but with slot games try to hit some big is really hard for me, dice is easier but sure both of them need huge bankroll. But for dice at least you can at least get some profit but slots I dont really think so because you must hit jackpot or high multiplier to get some profit

I'm gonna have to choose the "some other game" option.  I try to avoid propositions that have a negative expected value and both dice and slots are house games.  I am predominately a poker player but sometimes I get comp'd slot play which I usually just play recklessly...max betting it all away as quickly as possible.  I have won a few times doing that but I would not risk my own money on those games.

My choice is always poker. I play other games also, but poker is my game with others I have fun from time to time.
These two games are totally different. I will choose slots, more interesting and you can make more money on slots. But for many slots you need a lot of money if you chase lines ho ho money goes like crazy every spin.

Depends on my mood, some days I like playing fancy slots with lots of lines, bonuses, mini games and other days I like the dice, the only real difference in them is, one is provably fair and other is not but the truth is I end up losing in both of them.

If you are talking about serious gambling and money at stake then looks of the game doesn't really matter.
You can play at the casino with the ugliest layout on earth if they have like 0% House Edge.
And Slots Machines are usually having House Edge set to be really high. (around 10%-15%)

dice here simple to play with and edge good and provably fair to review your bet,
easy game easy win if you luck but easy to lose also if you don't know how to
stop. but still whatever it is luck needs in your way.

if i had to choose from those games i think i would to choose dice because this game are easy to playing and my first experience for gambling online by playing this game although the results are not so good because this is not my favourite gambling games

Not both , because i have lost money in both lol . But if it comes to camparing both then i would surely go for dice . Because of the advanced auto betting . We can use own strategies .

I have been fixed to dice games. I have tried other games too but they don't give a lot of fun like the one i experience while playing dice. Dice is quite fast, and you can change your odds to ones that suit you, and all in all, it is fun playing it. I would like to test the other games but I always find myself going back to dice.

Generally Dice is only to be played online because it has the lowest house edge. Slots have a huge house edge, and in casinos they are even larger.

Most gamblers don't know this but you are better off playing Roulette then Slots.

When faced with two choices Dice vs Slot I prefer Dice because Dice can be played with strategy or other methods certainly with the benefit but not good if it is played for a long time because it will surely lose. Slot while I had never heard anyone talk about strategies to play slots the chances of winning are much harder than the Dice.

My favourite gambling type is sports betting. But if must pick 1, dice or slots, i prefer gambling on dice sites than slots. Because Dice is more easy, and also can use auto betting.

Slots with slots you can win bigger with smaller bets

Slot can also be played by the auto bet bro  :) for gambling sites I was more interested in sports betting  same with you
and between Slot vs Dice also be interested Dice

i prefer both actually

but i usually play dice games mostly because it is fast and easy to play and most importantly i can make it fully automated and walk away while i am still making bets with a bot.

but i like slots because of how the game looks, but don't like playing it online i prefer the real life slot machine.

Dice and Slots, it makes no difference. They are both created by programmers and will always give the game owner the advantage. Unless you are playing against other people, you will always lose money over the long term. It's easier for the house to take a smaller edge in online games, as they don't have the overheads of physical casinos.

Dice and slots are two kind of gambling games which I never won / never love to.

I do sports betting for almost 1/4 of my life time, but when come to a choice to pick dice or slots, I will pick slots. Dice make me easy to get stressed because the game force us to do a massive bet. With slots I only bet $10-$20 once a week in 5 or 10 spins and see the luck is coming to you or not.

I prefer horse racing, I like to do a small accumulator for about 8 horses each way which works out at crazy odds, something like 15000/1 but I live in hope :)

If I had to choose between dice or slots I would opt for slots as they are little bit more entertaining and some have nice jackpots and bonus games, outside of these I like a bit of online poker but I need to be in the right frame of mind otherwise it can be too easy to just go all in and I end up back at the start with zero balance.

I am used to gambling on both games sometimes dice I keep playing for some period and other times slots.Well both are risky but slots are consuming lot of times in comparison with dice where results are faster and is more interesting to me than slots machines.

I prefer Dice because it is easier to win while I never win when play Slot

I never succeed to make some decent amount on dice but on slots games I made successfully few withdrawals of some good money.I will definitely say Slots because it did work for me how was to be done and is profitable for me often.

as much as i love to try slot games, i have yet to find the opportunity to do so.
so my choice out of all the bitcoin games is playing dice and that is mostly because of the speed and the autobet features that dice offers me.

I gonna go for dice , dice have 50-49 chance
i have a very bad experience on slots , lose so many money on it

I would choose dice, because the house edge is low plus the dice rolls are really fast. ;)  if house edge on slots were low then it would be my first choice.

i am also choosing Dice over Slot machine for the same reason of automated betting.

but i also like trying other games like Poker and some new games.

if you give selection Dice vs Slot, of course I chose the dice. just simple. because I often made a profit of dice and easier also make a profit of dice than slot.

i like more the slot, i have play more time to dice but don't see attractive  ;D

I think they are the same it always favor on the house because the logic behind there code are always in favor on the house but mostly I'm playing dice and always loss.

I was never into dice, it seems boring to me.. just hoping to see some dots. With slots you get a lot more colorful figures and different combinations, you get some really nice extras in some of the websites with stackable winnings. My favorite slot site is by far the slot machine at www.bitcoinvideocasino.com with some really nice prices, progressive winnings and really nice graphics.

if it was the matter of choosing only between these two games, then i will always choose Dice over slot machine game. i enjoy playing both of them but i prefer Dice more.

but also in all the games that can be played with bitcoin i like Poker more than anything else.

I prefer Dice. because dice game that is simple, fast and quite often make a profit from dice :)

Mostly i dont prefer to got for both gambling options, but the question is of selecting which is better than Dice is much better because their is some strategy you can use and win but in slots no strategy fully on luck.

The best option is to bet on sports betting and earn profits.

i would choose dice too because it is much more popular than slots so more dice gambling sites online for bitcoin, also yes automatic bet is much better in dice games than slots

there are no large differences between them but  i am sure that lots of people likes dices more

i always like trying different games with bitcoin but in the end i will always end up playing the good ol' dice games.

p.s. i don't think i have ever tried slot games with bitcoin, is there anywhere to test it?

Dice is pretty easy to play and easy for user so that is why dice is most popular format of gambling than slots, i like to play dice but enjoy to place bet on slots too even it have strange house edge but have wonderful payout structure with full of suspense.

So far I only play Dice I don't trust slots at all. Some people play all day on slots but that is simply not mine game. I don't trust the most slots also you know they take most of time all your money.

dice indeed my favorites, but I also like slots. because the experience I ever get 0.2BTC with small bets ;D

my vote goes to Dice too.
it is so easy to play dice in any situation and it runs on any device (pc, mobile,...) so i can play it whenever i want wherever i want.

If it's between dice or slots, I will always pick dice because you can pick and adjust exactly what odds you want to play. If poker is an option, I would however pick that over slots or dice. There is a little more control/strategy with poker.

I think dice is better than slots never heard someone win in slots.. but in dice game i heard many times..
usually you can make your own strategy if how to make profit in dice game than in slots..

How can you compare the #1 game in the online casino world with the new one, dice, which is very popular among Bitcoin operators, but so small still.

Dozens of new slots games are developed and released every day around the world among all providers, crazy huge net gaming is generated there, millions of players.

Im sorry, but Dice is still not even 5% of it in NGR

The question should be:
Which one is more profitable when placing a bet cause when it comes down to it at the end of the day which one pays you out  ;)

It is hard to hit 5 of the same symbol in a row so slots are a waste of time and you have no control of which ones land on the same line. dice you can get the correct match of numbers at least so there is more of a probability that you will win.

I am asking players from Bitcointalk.org what is their choise and as you can see just 2 votes for slots.

Actually there is no much different in slots. It is almost the same as dice games too but you can't use any strategy with it because slots is pure luck games. But some of them even get big winning on slots too. It just matter of your luck, if you have more luck you will sure earn in slot games

ya with slot only need luck and can't use strategy , and it does'nt fit for me because i nevet get any luck. just wonder why my friend can be very success with slot, he not look for little reward but from bonus spin that slot give after get 5 same pic and it give high reward although not high as if get jackpot.

I like both. because each've made me happy. I've hit the jackpot 2BTC of slots and to dice like most people, the game is very easy to make a profit in a short time.

i would also choose dice most of the time cause it is simple and i can even let it auto on its own. The game is also very fast pace and you can see the result quite instantly. however for slots, i do play when i have plenty of free time. it will be fun to play for 1 hr and each time when it came close to winning, you will be super excited in the last 2 column especially.

all time slot machine  ;D  but have any variable.

i like more the game with light, music and color and all slot have , but for example i like rollin like dice, for the graphic option.

and already, i use only slot with jackpot and not all dice have jackpot option

if you play online, and you probably do, then dice game and slots game are very similar just different design,  i mean in both games you usually have 50/50% chance to win, you can change chances to win in both games , but i would choose dice because i like it more

If you play online and provably fair system is applied - there is no difference if you are playing Dice, Roulette Slots or any other game when outcome is randomly generated.
That is why I find it weird that you trust in Dice and doubt Slots, that is not logical at all. Either you doubt in Provably Fair system and every online game or not.

It is true but the jackpot thing is matter of luck when you will get it. In the end if you keep rolling you will sure get it. There is only one problem, you need to wait for how long to win that jackpot and how much will you spend just to hit 1 jackpot? Most people dont spend too much just to hit this jackpot. Many of them out before they hit some jackpot although they already try that far

That is what it is all about: The attraction to the game so it keeps the players coming back for more  ;)

Look at Las Vegas. They put a lot of money into the glitz and glam and people basically live in the casino because of all the attraction inside there. Like moths to the flame as the pitbosses probably say all the time.

In slots you can play with the amount of lines you are wanting to bet at. This can give you some options and try to develop strategy. Of course it all comes down to pure luck but you can switch things up. I think slots is a better game than dice overall, I always end up playing slots and get bored of rolling the dice.

Yeah dice is boring but you can make lots of strategy in dice than slots.. so  i think still better to play in dice game on primedice.
I always tried my self to make some profit in slots and  i win in the first time but you will lose in the long run..

Slots are more entertaining with fancy graphics and multiple outcomes on a bet while in dice there is only binary outcome, more new sites implementing jackpot to the dice game.

whevever i feel like gambling i choose Dice, because it is easy and like you i always prefer the automation of dice games with their autobetting system

Don't like slots and can't see the pint, you have no idea how you doing till you win if you even win, there is no planning no strategy, brain dead work really. :-\

haha well you can say the same thing to dice too. You will end up having no idea why you bet and all those strategy that you think for dice is actually not working, it still boils down to luck, just like slot. Kind of brain dead work too especially you let the bots run.

I prefer dice online. In a real casino slots are okay, online it seems like a video I am watching. I know it is just a front end for a random number generated behind the scenes, so I prefer just seeing the number without the animations.

in online gambling, dice game and slots one are really same, because it is usually 50/50 chance to win, 

it both have decent auto bet system but i would choose dice game on primedice, because i started my gambling there, also community is friendly there

I don't think dice and slots are same, dice has relatively small house edge compared to slots. the winning chance on dice is bit more.   ;)

for me slots is way better because they usually have way better designs that allows me to get high quality entertainment while dice designs are usually really simple and not interesting

even though dice games usually offer smaller house edge and allows easier winnings i usually choose slots over dice as i like it more

I would choose dice(primedice to be exact) because thats the only gambling game I always play ever since. I visited other sites but never get soaked into anothers games and site.

in gambling i like dice and sport book. it is based in some prediction and luck but in slot i don't like it as a game for dice you need a strategie and in sport you need to know who will win it can be profitable but slot all you need is luck.
i didn't find a strategie for slot i think is like throw your money and wait how much it will come back.

I think dice is much better since slots are solely dependent on luck.

Dice alot better.

Lol both the games are luck based, the winning chances on dice is more due to house edge being low.  :)

My pick goes to Dice because it is more fun to play :D

I think 99% people love dice and 1% love slots LOL

I oftenly play at a dice game for profit and at a slots game for fun. You are right that dice has a fixed house edge and with it I can somewhat make profit even for just a bit while in slots, you can never really tell when you will be lucky and get some of your money back available for withdraw. Winning in slots games are not easy same as in any other online casino games.

I prefer dice game, slot game is just boring for me

I like to play on both games dice is much popular format of gambling because it is easy to use and it have very low house edge as compare with slots, that is the reason most of the people like dice game but slots has very attractive payout with low risk of amount so that i give try it some times.

The winning chance in dice is bigger than slot, but the price for slot is bigger than dice, for me personally i prefer dice game, i found slot doesnt have a lot of challenge to play, in dice you still can choose to bet higher or lower and set the win percentage

I'd have to say dice, because it is the simplest of it all. It has the lowest house edge. Slots have a higher house edge and I haven't got any success with it at all.

Also, you can try new strategies with dice. There are lots of bots that you can program to autobet for you too.

No doubt dice is more better than slots, dice is very attractive than slots because it is easy to understand and it has more bigger community than slots, that is why dice sites are leading the bitcoin gambling industry at the moment.

I like more playing slots, its slow, but has more emotion (colors, sounds...) , dices are boring to me. I know that dices have lower edge, and are better for users that want to earn money but i play more for fun. I know i will lost some money on both kinds of jobs.

If you are picking a game you like you don't think about 'community' do you? You pick the game because:

a) you like how it looks and plays
b) you think this is the game gives you better chances of winning

That are the main reason behind people's choices of casino games.

Actually each has it own fun. I personally like to play slot in real life cause there can be bonus stages and there is a lot of animation with really strong sound effects.

The odds are just same.

The house edge of slots is a lot higher than dice in provably fair games. The house edge of dice is a few percentage at most but the house edge of slots can be double digits. I prefer betting on dice than slots as dice gives you a higher chance of winning.

Actually measuring House Edge of Slots machines is complicated. Normal Slot machine range is based on available returns from a manufacturers of machines,
and it could be in range of 2% - 15%. It is the same with digital Slots, you need to check every game individually before playing as they can be very different.

I think the reason why slots is much more popular in Casinos is because it has the physical handle that you can pull or it has a theme, such as Star Wars or some other Hollywood money. Its much more fun to play then dice.

As long as one is just playing for fun, then I fell dice is not so existed compared to slots games as you said. But if someone playing for making profits then it all depends on individuals because they will choose games based on their skills on games. I only bet on sports and sometimes play dice but never really played any slot games.

But for me really since im not really do gambling to much i trying my self not to be addicted with it, im playing most of it in dice game because that is what we use to play in our group chat and sharing some techniques and pointers in that game and thats why i select dice for that i got better sweet experience in that game, and also i do gambling in sports betting if nba is on play offs era or finals because i want to join the thrend

My first choice is dice, because i'm more experienced on it than on Slots and i never play Slots though and i don't know how it works. I prefer dice than slots.

Nice title topic, for me no one of them, as I have lost a lot of coins by playing dice and slots, both are against a player in the long run, as that something called a house edge, even if its 0.1% it will still come into play and make you lose in the long run, just like it happened to me.

Based on my experience, I had better luck on slots than on dice. I won some mbtc on slots and I lost some mbtc on dice. Yes, both games are pure luck-based game but has very different house edge.

Yeah, the reason dice has thrived with bitcoin as opposed to fiat dice is because the simplicity bitcoin offers as a payment gateway. You can deposit almost instantly in most cases, with 1 confirmation. Some casinos even offer 0 confirmation deposits, like Bitsler.

Dice has certainly a larger community, and as a game itself it offers some very attractive characteristics like ease of access, you can use bots, and free faucets. You also get a better house edge with dice than with slots.

the dice is nice for people who dont play many times a gamble its quiet easy you know. There are allot of slot games who are very difficult so dices may always be more popular under the beginners.

Dice are much more better than slots, I never win at slots before :(

I prefer dice. They require more thinking, although in actuality it's just as random. Slots feel rigged to me. You pull a lever and you win or lose. Nothing special.
