Bitcoin Forum

So, I've been wondering recently, how and why people choose which game to play. Is it because of the higher chances of winning?Or is it based on their particular skill/preference? Bigger payout? Which game do you prefer? I'm curious. I mainly play Dice myself and I'm thinking of playing a new game but don't have much idea about the others. Tell me.

I think that sports betting gives you the most odds to win because if you know the teams and how they play and what quality are they, you van easily win. It is also the easiest kind of gambling to find a loophole in, if you know someone that knows the results ahead on the rigged game. Other games such as dice or other depend on a random generator and does not offer you much odds on winnings.
Blackjack is probably on number 2 because you need to know to play and you control part of the game. You could also count cards if you know how to.

when it comes to -EV games usually people play what they enjoy the most , otherwise we would see people leaving roulette and playing dice for example
it seems that a lot of people doesn't care about the odds , they just want to enjoy the stay

Dice has the highest odds if you're doing pure luck but sports betting offers better odds if you know about the teams. Then, it would be blackjack, roulette, slots, and then lotteries. Poker should also be on the poll.

For highest odd and bigger payout (it depends on winning chances you set) , i will stick on dice you can set your winning chances for minimize your rick (and exactly , whatever winning chances you set it's ended to luck though). I also like sportsbetting , for the odds you can't set but you can bet to your favourite team and make fun while you watching the match it's can easily identify which team will win on match for seeing the odds table.
I will pick dice and sportsbetting , for lottery and others meh , your winning chances is too low for win.

Sport betting sure have something better chance to win but of course if you can gather good information about each game may be you can sure win but doesnt it have the same result if you bet on dice with a lower odds? The payout will be the same though and you dont even have to wait for a long time to get your result

I only play dice whenever i gamble but i also tried those game in the list before and I can say dice is the only one i did a profit. Maybe because im more comfortable on it and its my favorite.

I like sports and think you can gain knowledge and get an edge, especially
compared to luck like rolling dice or flipping coins.

Also if you narrow sports down to certain teams or small conferences you can
really gain an edge becoming an expert in the area.

I play dice only when I'm bored and never actually tried to make a profit from this game but also didn't lose much. I like sports betting, particularly cricket matches betting and so for my guesses quite good and made a decent money from it. But I never bet more on any single matches, always go with low bets.

Poker and sports betting give you the choice to make the bet or not.  So that means you can choose to make it if you think you have an edge or avoid it if you think you don't.  So in short if you know what you're doing in poker and/or sports betting, you can be a consistent winner.

Dice because it's simple and fast.
Sports betting because it's easier to guess and a lot of fun.

I prefer on sports betting that other casino games. Because they have many options to bet like handicap, over/under and many else and also it's not provably fair.

I was close to vote for poker, but after few losses this week I think sports are much easier sometimes.
Good with sports is that you choose odds by yourself, before game start you know your chances.
With poker two ace's can mean high odds for winning, but I lost so many times with two ace's in my hand, that I don't believe there is strong hand in poker, only after river we can say what we have in hands.
Anyway poker and sports are my favorites for making profit, and both games have good odds for winning. Of course be careful when choosing hand/match for betting all in.

My vote goes for sports betting because it's much easier to know when to bet on teams/player that will actually win the match. I was gonna vote for plinko but there's no option in the poll OP should add that one.

Knowledge-based gambling is your best bet.  So that narrows it down immediately to

• Bitcoin Internet Poker, where you are playing against other players, you can determine your bets after evaluating your cards (but not your opponent's cards), and the rake is very low
• Sports Betting, where you can determine where to place your bets
• Blackjack, where you are playing against the house, but you have some potential to assess your advantage (based on dead cards) prior to placing your bet

In my opinion, Bitcoin Internet Poker and Sports Betting are tied for best, and Blackjack is after that.  Everything else is purely for entertainment.  Lottery has the worst odds, but gives some people a reason to get up in the morning.

It depends on thr purpose of your gambling if you are playing for profit then the player will find an easier game to win such as dice game with 50:50 chance or sport betting, and some player like the group gambling so they play crap or poker game but for me i like to play poker because i find its fun and it needs skill to win the game

Not all people are the same they are not looking for odds i think they are just changing there game habbit because sometimes if you are gamble too long in that game its boring.. so changing your game is a good idea to enjoy again..

1. sports betting never gives you the highest odds atleast on pre-live betting because  sports betting sites are made like that. they never give you high odds  for the selected team that is most capable to win.
2. i believe that dice offers much better odds than sports betting. btw,  @op, winning in a dice game is not so easy because higher the odds, lesser is the chance to win.

i vote for slots  ;D because i only play this games and sometimes i can win. i am curious about sports betting but i don't know how to play and how the rule.

I agree with you. Sports betting is the best play you can try. Its easy to predict other than any games. All you have to do is check players or teams background so you have a knowledge which team is worth betting for. But there are no guarantee you can always win. This is still gambling. Win or go home.

I vote for sports betting because not only it offers you best odds, but also give you some knowledge about the game/match.

A good casino player will choose the game with the highest payout. In this case its clearly the slots as there you can hit the best paying 5 pair and even if you don't win the jackpot you win a lot of money. Most of the cases the 5 pair top paying is also the jackpot but not always. I don't really care about the odds as long as I am enjoying my self playing the slots.

I vote for sports betting although the odds are lower you have high chances of being consistent in your winnings different from any other gambling game. Roulette, dice, slots all of these games have a house edge which will get you busted in the long run no matter how hard you try you cannot beat the house.

It is sports betting which offers highest odds and more variety of options to choose from. I also win most of the times my bets placed on sports events. I find more interesting for me roulette and slot machines where my luck is working well. I don't try to hit the jackpot but whenever I play there I make some money extra to play other games.

Just voted for sports betting like most the people here. This is are where we have opportunities and choices to take chance on one which we see suitable for us. Sports betting is easy to done as you need to sit in front of your device just place on perform other things if you are fan of arbitrage. Sports betting is best in general than casino games because of everything related to gambling.

Dice and lottery I think have the lowest house edge. Slots I think have the highest.

Poker is basically skilled based so it depends

Roulette is similar to Dice however has slightly higher house edge.

I chose sports betting, have more in options and opportunities that vary. looks easy to win and get higher odds if you have a good knowledge.

As we know , sport betting mostly pure based on luck because it's quite difficult to manipulate players subjectively.
Poker also provide greater odds of winning rather than dice ( just make sure that the site are legit )


But still they are easy for being manipulate

My short insight into the games you included in the poll:

 Dice - definitely has the potential to be the easiest to learn. Low House Edge combined with functionality where you can set your own multipliers makes Dice great game for newbies and advanced players alike.

 Roulette - a bit more complicated, with more complex rules than Dice. Be aware of American version with double 0. It has more than 5% HE. Play only European Roulette with single 0.

 Blackjack - great card game with extremely low HE, less than 0.3% Easy to play. The most popular casino table game.

 Poker - the best game for advanced players, one of the few, casino games where you can use your skill and knowledge.

 Sports Betting - variable odds, definitely the most interesting branch of gambling IMO.

 Lottery - for the most part you will be sinking your money in this one and you won't win anything.

based on statistics, blackjack is supposed to have a 1% house edge compared to roulettes 2.47% edge on a standard american table.
though these odds change everywhere you play with different conditions.
dice is fixed 1%, and beats blackjack and roulette statistically.
poker technically has no edge, but rather takes a rake commission per hand(s).
sports betting, odds are shaved by the site and therefor cutting your profit, technically no edge besides this
lottery your odds are stacked millions against you, truly for the lucky.

For the odds of winning, sport bet is the best, it also has a varieties of betting, like scorer or over and under how many goals, and the chance of being cheated is lower than other casino games, but in sport betting you dont do anything, you just analyze and then bet and watch the game, if you like to casino games with high odds then dice game is the most suitable

i think any of the gambling games can have the chance of making you rich or poor based on your luck. so you can win in any of them the same way.
so generally i have the feeling that if you have a bigger bankroll and a good strategy you can win in any of them.

although most people say that you have a better chance in sports betting, i don't completely agree with them.

If I compare the winning ratio than only sports betting is working fine for me, sports betting depend on good knowledge so that I think sports betting is good form of gambling, other casino games are very risky because where play against the house.

I don't choose because of high odds any game except lottery which I also am investing weekly. A large number of people are playing every type of gambling daily. I am active in sports betting because I have skills and interest in this. I also roll dice when I want to try my luck for quick bucks that is because of payout chances. Slots where free spins and chance of getting jackpot so all because of different reasons.

Sports betting then dice then roulette then the others and finally and very obviously the lottery ^^

I think people are more infavor of winning odds.  So if they think the possibility of winning is bigger they tend to bet on it.  What will you do to a game where the prize is million times your bet but you only have 0.00000001% chance of winning.  I bet you would rather put your money in 1.27x but the winning chance is 98%.  And just do it again and  again.

The odds of you losing with gambling are always bigger because you will have to play by the casino there rules.
That is why they have the house edge because he casino also needs to make money.

I choose sports betting because in a sense you can see it as real and not in favor of anybody.
So you have a pretty fair shot to win with your selection. ;D

Sports betting if you are knowledgeable enough and don't just gamble and place bets on favorites just because they have lower odds. Websites like Betadvisor go even further and market them as a gambling investment by following their best tipsters there. You pay a monthly fee. I have tried one month only and I was in profit but very low profit I think tipsters here in the forum do better.

Just for the sake of practical use and can play cards and chess, and if the financial interest, then there can not be advised, as not every person is a benefit. And to be guilty do not want to bad condition of another person.

I prefer sports betting as a percentage will win a much bigger and what's I mean sport betting is more fair because we know clearly why we lost.

If we have some good knowledge to choose the right team for betting than nothing could be better than sports betting, from my opinion sports betting can give us better return because it has very high possibility to make very good profit.

I think Dice is probably the most popular online game, because of easy playing. There are also a lot of Dice sites all over. Sport betting is for dedicated players only, because you must know sport future predictions.  ;D 

If you are gambling for high odds then you can try with dice and other casino games but the winning ration will be 90% loss 10% profit. But if you want to be on profit then sports betting is much better, even if you have some skill you can try with poker, ratio of odds is low but if you see on long term then you will be in high profit on both this games. This i am telling from my experience. So dont see odds but just see the confirmation of winning the bets and being in profit.

I like Dice and I play mostly on dice sites. Of course I know that the odds are always against the player but you might get lucky from time to time and win some. But in the long run it's always negative profit.

The house edge always has to be against the player or else the gambling site wouldn't be able to make their money. However most sites these days have very very small house edge.

Yes, dice game is good only for fun so I just play with small amount sometimes to check my luck but my favourite one is sports betting. Because I can guess more accurately in my favourite game to win bets better than in this dice game. I always bet small amount in each game and got lucky many times.

Many people like Dice game. Because it is very easy to play and odds also very nice. If you are lucky in a single bet, you will make a big profit. But here lose chances is high. So I will not play Dice game much. I too like sports betting. The odds also good and we can judge the match result based on their previous performance.

i have been playing almost all games in casinos and my gambling results also have various kinds of results sometimes i won even i start it with low amount but very often too i start with huge amount and lost but among all those games i have pretty good results during my sport betting and that's why i personally more likely to sport betting than other games

In sport betting odds is something that you need to beat! If you do that - you can be rich. But you need time for study all that odds, searching, analysing all that stuff...I know to lose 2-3 days to stduy some game with decent odd and then made a profit. Its not easy to beat them but if someone is good its possible.

from these poll options i choose sports betting and also poker games.
i don't know about your odds of winning in these games but it is possible to improve in these games because they are mostly depending on your skills and not just luck. so the number of wins can be higher so the total profit in the end will be more.

I think sports betting because of you have knowledge of can be applied to make sure your bets win. It also make an event fun to watch which is the main reason why I spend time sports betting. It's not a good way to make money as it's not guaranteed but it's done well for me.

The important part that should be taken into consideration is not the odds of each game, its the house edge of each website.
If one provides you with 0.01 house edge and the other offers 2% house edge that means that it doesn't matter which game it is, the odds of each game changes from house edge to house edge. Tough that changes in things like blackjack it still is valid when the house edge of blackjack taken into consideration in general.

Hello
Sports betting has more chances of winning as far as other casino games are compared with it. Other casino games are purely based on luck and you have no control over them to show your experience much.
However if you wish to bet on sports please do so with extreme caution.
Good Luck!!

Odds for winning are the best where you have edge over house. That could be at sports betting if bookies make a mistake with too high payouts.

I agree about dice. As much as I've figured out from the little bit I know about sports betting, don't they give High payout for those that have little chances of winning? And only double or so for those teams that is most likely to win? Also, the only way to win more is to make the bet complex, I get confused because not only do you pick who wins but in which round/what way/scores and so.

P.S. I get that most people chose sports betting, but it's a very complex game in which not only do you have to follow the sport closely but is also time consuming.


Yes! Exactly. Before you even earn, you'll have to spend not only money, but also a lot of time.


But most sites offer almost all the games mentioned in the poll, so you can take your pick on who has low HE, which I think, would still bring us back to the odds.


Although we can't actually depend on that happening always,(almost nil?)

Well among the selections indicated, I think sports betting would give you the highest chance of winning since it doesn't mainly rely on luck. Being knowledgeable about the sport or league of your choice gives you a a higher chance of winning. Poker though would be the most fun for be as it has to be a combination of luck and skill to be successful. You would have to know how to read your cards and your opponents so this for me is the most exciting
