I am planning to start my own gambling site. Can anyone share their own ideas for ways to gamble? (against house)

this , indeed to be honest this is what I'm looking for the most especially if it's added to a site that has dice ( for some recreationals  :D )
bit-exo is working on adding this to the site soon , but it would be nice if other sites started to offer them too since they mix both gambling and strategy

Maybe work in the same framework as the creators of fortnite have done.
It seem to have worked well for them. ;D
Giving away the platform for free but charging for addons in the game just like epic games have done.
And with their recent episode 4 being released today and with all the hype in it's gameplay shown in all the youtubers streaming it, you know you have got a winner in an idea if you can do that.
$2.8 million dollars made by March alone this year is no joke. ;)

Wait what he said he wants to start a gambling site not a game currently all gambling sites don't charge anyone to pay just to register and by your logic you want him to give free money to gamblers and tell them to pay to unlock there funds or anything
Plus how is epic games making 2.8 million in a month related to gambling ??

Gamblers won't pay to unlock certain games or features within games, 99% of the time they'll just go somewhere else. I don't understand how selling add-ons to a game would be related to gambling, and either way developing games can take significant capital, and you're working with a web browser for a casino, not a customized client. It's best to keep things nice, simple and compatible with all devices for gambling.

One of the most popular betting game is poker so if you start this then you can get more players than other games or you can start dice games or slot games like,but it all depends on what you have and how much you are going to invest on it.And don't forget to do promotion of your site because that will get more players for you.

just keep in mind that history proves that new games are not usually well received. people are not so willing to start gambling in a game that they have never played before. that is why the market is filled with different dice sites and the variety of games is not that much. it is basically: dice, poker, sports, and maybe two more.
not to mention that "ideas" are valuable. if someone had a niche idea that they knew is going to work they would never share it freely, they would start their own website.

Are you referring to pvp poker or video poker? If you are referring pvp poker then it is not what he is looking for as he want to build a game which is against the house. Poker also hard to get many players, as we have seen that many btc poker sites still struggling to get many players.
Dice would be the most favorite one but it will be very hard for new dice site to compete in this gambling industry because we have many trusted dice sites already.

There are many gambling sites available in the market so if you are planning bring the same type of games that are already available in abundance, it won't create any impact for your business and you will see hard time promoting it. A successful business is built around great ideas. So first do a market scoping. Make a spreadsheet and list all gambling websites there. Then visit each of these websites and list down the nature of their offerings like Dice, lottery, slots, cards etc. in different columns. You will get an overall picture of all available offerings in the market. Start building up on what is not available in abundance and only a fewer options are available. Like poker is not available in the market in lots, or rummy card games. Build up your business on those games. Then only the gambling mass will be interested in your website. If you build up your business on what's already available like Dice and slots, it will take a long time to promote your website and may be lost in crowd. Hope this helps!

It's difficult to make similar gameplay because there are many site have most of them ( dice, poker,roulette,etc )

Actually I'm looking for big 2.5* card gameplay , usually PVP based game and it's something new , I'm almost seen this gameplay on every gambling site !

If you are looking for the long term, you should get some help from people running the website. It is not easy to run a website especially when there are many hackers out there. So, you need trusted people. Also, if you have not come with an original idea, you can find many ideas on YouTube or on Google. But I believe if you come up with an original idea, you will be rich because people support new ideas, especially when they are developed perfectly.

I'll give you a simple idea

Why do not you subscribe to a new currency team and have to pay by their currency ??

Your site will be famous and will benefit from the new team name

I disagree with that, poker just isn't that popular anymore. Even existing poker sites, other than Pokerstars, are having enough trouble as it is to attract new players.
They all have a casino on the side because that's far more profitable.

Heck, that's why Pokerstars added those spin & go games in the first place, it's more like actual gambling and doesn't require a long attention-span.

There really is not a perfect idea and for me it is not an option. There are still many things that are much better and I will always think that we are just a loser when we play gambling.

So lets find a new game.LOL :D

Maybe it is hard for that site to attract new players but always poker has been the most played betting games,if he want to attract new players then he need to do advertising to get that players even if he got the best site,advertising is imposrtant to let know the people what we have for them,if we have that by ourself then no one will come to us.

you should strategize first, but depending on where you will gamble and have the capital, then you target to get how much if the target has been reached stop to avoid losses.

Make a properly working lightweight poker site and gamblers will be playing there. I love to play poker and I personally tired of sites which look fantastic but in reality are either not loading or lagging. In fact I don't care much about the appearance. What I need is a site which will be operating even when internet connection is slow and I'm sure there are other gamblers who want the same thing.

In my experience, I have seen all the old gambling games and ideas are more than enough to run and to find good fortune with a gambling site. Then what will make you stand taller ? Yes, you must think about different marketing strategies to promote heavily.  If you are good enough in making your site (even it is with all old gambling games and ideas) then you can find grand success easily.

One effective way of promotion for a crypto based gambling house must be, having a signature campaign here in this forum. You must run it for years like crypto-games, fortunejack or bitsler. Then you may find good results very much effortlessly.

Right now I'm looking to start a dice site with some new features that isnt implemented on other dice sites.

I can't think of any idea that most of the dice sites that doesn't implemented yet.
What's on my mind is you'll accept most of the crypto's like more than 20+ altcoins to dice but I don't think this is a good idea.

Try some ideas with the new trend today . It would be catchy and people would try using it. Also make it simple and thrilling. This is how people hang in gambling games they are addicted to. A 20% winning rate like dice games would be better.

Try to put more asian gambling games,like card games or even cockfighting betting..be originated and creative because lots of gambling sites no offers same games that comes to be so boring,since youre looking for new ideas why not try something new for many of us..

Card games that popular in Philippines are

pusoy uno
Pusoy dos
Tong its
Sakla

This are the games you should research since many members here came from Philippines or asian

I would first suggest you to visit the top gambling sites see how they're working, what do you think is missing and can you add more value to it. Then visit their forum, and see why they're getting praised or criticised. Some ideas are PvP poker that's always a delight, then my favourite dice. You'll need to have a good bankroll to pay plus a excellent support cause you'll be bombarded for every small shit.

I don't have any idea because I think for creating a new gambling site, you should know every game on the gambling sites and at least you try one by one of that games so you will have an idea to start your own gambling site. I am not playing gambling too often but maybe I can give suggestion to create simple games like dice but it will attract more gambler to come and play that games to your site.

What you are asking is very difficult. This is the reason why everyday when there is a new site coming online it's always some form of dice. Dice has been done to death and most people stick to the old regular sites to play dice anyways like PD, FJ, etc.

It's hard to come up with a new idea. Another reason why is because since it's crypto, you would need to make it provably fair somehow and for certain types of games it's just not possible.

What he asks isn't difficult, it cost money. Idea is most expensive thing in the business, with idea you can make miracles, without you can just copy others. Making a new casino site without new and fresh ideas, without money to invest in casino bankroll, marketing, promotions, in so many things is a bad idea!
Many others asked the same question here in gambling section and most of them just abandoned their threads, and dreams about starting their own casinos. Same will happen to op this time, he doesn't have nothing is o offer, his dream is to make money in a wrong way, but what he don't understand you need a lot od money to make a lot of money.

This is interesting because I thought that any game can be made provably fair if desired. As far as I understand we (suppose we are the house) can assign a number to any possible outcome, I mean to any combination of cards, pictures, dices, whatever. Then we apply SHA256 to it and we can show the resulting hash to a player before he/she makes a move. With the player's move a random number is generated and then through a formula containing both numbers, a new number is obtained. And that new number corresponds to a combination of cards, pictures, dices etc.

I'm not an expert in the field, I'm just trying to comprehend the process, so please explain if I get something wrong.

The only thing you need to do in able for your casino become successful is a strong marketing and not on focusing how to beat the player in your casino. House always due to human error. The only enemy of having a casino was lack of customer. More customer will give you high chance of profit.

You are right mate, once any casino lost there reputation then it automatically loses their customers. so concentrate on how to attract players to your site and i think you need a big capital to start new casino site. for promotion only you have to spend a lot of money.

I wouldn't focus so much on finding new ways to gamble, because as a gambler what i look for in casino or gambling site is not the games, its the benefits or the plus that the site gives me, the thing that makes it different from the other popular ones that have been in the game for a while that have good reputation, so i suggest finding ways to attract players like giving bonuses on deposit, or giving them a small amount of bitcoin after a certain number of rolls for exemple.

How much is your budget?

Prioritized that first as ideas can be executed properly with the proper budget. Solved what will be the problems first as on the way, even how well interested your ideas, if you experienced a financial problem then you are doomed. Making a gambling site is kinda easy for those who knowledge but more importantly, you really need a big budget for it to run smoothly.

How much it will cost? Make a brain storming all night to analyzed some of the problems that will you encountered on the way. Competing in the world of gambling sites today requires more dedication and perseverance.

First you need to gain the trust of a lot of users so that you can earn or be successful on what you're doing because we all know that there are a lot of people who are taking advantage on those who are weak or doesn't know much about anything so I suggest that it would be better if you can be considered trustworthy before opening a gambling site.

It is indeed difficult because if we do try to look on bitcoin/altcoin gambling industry we would able to say it is already saturated which means making up unique ideas would really be necessary for you to get the edge or attention.If you would stick into traditional game creation like dice then you would really have a very very tough competition against to those reputable gambling sites which do already have these games.Asking out idea to public wont give you any hints because if they do have bright idea they would rather keep it on their own and make on their own instead.

I agree with your words that promotion is the most important to attract customers,the more promotions that are made the stronger to achieve the profits that must be supported by large funds or budget right and for promotions every week will be great.Gambling sites that people often enjoy are the very popular dice gambling in this crypto,with inserted sports and other gambling would be better so customers can choice a lot for fun.

One interesting legal aspect to gambling is whether it should be considered a game of skill. There are states in america which ban gambling but allow games of skill. The distinction between the two can represent a fine line determining whether something is legal or illegal in some states. Recently there was a case where fantasy sports platforms like fanduel and draftkings claimed they were a game of skill but were said to be gambling by some US states and banned on a state wide level.

Merging gambling with games of skill could be one area dice sites could focus on. An example of this could be including the results of mini games in dick win/loss algorithms. For example, let's say there was a pacman mini game. If someone scored higher than 1,000 points their odds for winning could increase and if they scored below 500 points, their odds could flip in the opposite direction. Similar paradigms could bump web platform dice from being hard gambling to representing something more similar to a game of skill, which could allow it to be more widely adopted(and also increase appeal on the basis of originality).

Another area that comes to mind is internet dice's "provably fair" concept. Devising a better, more transparent method of ensuring fairness could a long way towards attracting customers, many of whom may not know what provably fair is much less the details of how its supposed to work.

Ok then why even make this post right now , just post your idea or now or post later why is this required
Are you planning to edit this or simply just wrote it?

Yes, we need to invest lot of capital for the casino website and we need to spend lot of money by attracting the customers, in the begining, website should able to give bonus for depositing funds. Casino website should be a user friendly one in order to attract more customers.

It's sounds good. It's better idea to start a gambling sites ,instead of just playing it.But you need of some money to inverse for the creation and promotion of gambling sites. If you have some experience on frame works, you can start to create your own gambling sites,by this you will save dollars.

If you think promotion is the most important thing part of a gambling site then how about the game itself? The game should be the main priority first, it will be useless to have so many promotions but the game is not attractive. The promos wont give a good result for the site except temporary traffic.

If you want to start a project I think you should be going with a project that would be helpful for the community.
We have enough gambling websites, and if you are not planning to do a decantralized system to gamble without paying any house edge or fees then I don't think that the project will be succeed.
There are already gambling sites from all sections, from dice and roulette, to skill based games such as Texas holdem poker and pool, really hard to think about something that is yet to be existed.

If we're talking about Asian games, maybe mahjong. This is an extremely popular game. The only downside is that you would be targeting their market specifically as not many Europeans or Americans know how to play and enjoy it as much.
You could also try an arcade game like one of those shooters from the 80s. Skill based games would bring some fresh air to this industry.

there is no new idea that we can say ,, everything I will say almost there with the other ,, but it is like that the situation .. and I hope the profits will soon be in the can if you open a gambling site ..

Mahjong means a game or site,I never heard about it before.
If the OP wants ro have more players to his/her site then they need to keep the games which must be known to everyone normally dice games are much popular in the crypto gambling so he can try to create site regarding but the problem is there are already lot of reputed sites are available so the chance of getting grow his site among them is guite harder.

Currently old fashioned casino market is saturated so you might not be able to compete with big old giants. These days blockchain based gambling is garbing interest of players so you better focus on developing fair and transparent game based on smart contract platforms like in ETH and find some way to accept multiple coins rather than just ETH on that platform.

Many ETH smart contract based casinos have limited game and don't accept multiple coins so try to make your entry in this existing gap.

I feel ashamed of this statement that you and many others are saying. Why you people are giving advices to newcomers to join this gambling. Plus, advising the investors to find out better solutions for gambling and casino making. No, I think this culture must be ended. It has demolished the making just because the easy money attract everyone and they become victim of this fatal to finances disease.

Why not just release the dice website first to know if there are players interested in your site because these ideas could be useless if no one would be interested to play in your website just to get a feel of what it's like. I said this because i've seen a lot of gambling sites that doesn't last long and suddenly stop. Also by releasing it early you can build up your reputation faster then the rest should follow.

I don’t know if you are just fishing for ideas but I think it could work because some people would say their ideals truthfully. If you manage to create something unique and new  to the table of casinos. Well It’s probably going to work. Hopefully you could make it.

I think you're a bit confused here as to how things work, my advice is to first register on popular gambling sites, deposit little on all and see what's your experience is. Each site has its own usp, games that people like, see if you can bridge the gap create new or best is to ask what new features does a gambler want (I'm not sure if there is any feature left out). I do hope you'll make a proper research or else you could get your hands burnt.

If you are looking for the long term, you should get some help from people running the website. It is not easy to run a website especially when there are many hackers out there. So, you need trusted people right away

Running a gambling is a really hard deal because you need to take a lot of security measures at the same time, you need to spend a lot of money on the website. Why don't you check the other website by seeing those you can learn many things how to built a gambling website. Other ideas will work only if you satisfy those.

But I doubt whether someone will come up with some interesting idea because it is not that much easier for most of the people to contribute here for free of cost by spending long hours in thinking about different gambling activities and ideas. It would be much better for OP to hire some professionals to innovate some marvelous new gambling ideas.

I don't think so. Just being attractive and having friendly customer care will be more than enough for many people here to get engaged with any new gambling site. Being unique will definitely work but that is not easy one and also that is not the only way to success any business.

It is not necessarily so because to start a gambling website you need to invest a lot of money and not everyone has it. In some cases it's better to give your idea for free instead of burying it. But are there any new ideas for gambling? That's another question. And here I agree with the first part of your post, people don't like to change their habits. And that's why concentrating on improving old games is preferable to creating new ones.

I think the first thing that he should ready is to prepare with the money to build the sites and he can hire some programmers he knew and ask them to take the responsibility with the security of the sites so he can use his times to do other things. the hard thing that might be happening is how to manage that sites and make sure that site can run for a long time and the site could attract many gamblers to play on that site. and for choosing the games, I think he can visit on the other site and I think he can get a new idea to be applied to his site.

Something unique from what is being done is one thing he would need to come up with and that would not be an easy thing as it would require some high level of hard work to come up with. The thing is that, it is a big space and there would always be a lot of gamblers who are willing to try out new things. The only idea anyone can come up with now is something that I believe it is already being done in some of the known websites unless he is thinking of bringing new games.

Lol. As funny as that sounds, it is the truth but it is a free world and we cannot force anyone not to do what they best please to do or what they feel would give them the breakthrough. Even if he does not, someone else will anyway. It is a culture that has been on for a very long time and a culture that I do not see ending anytime soon.

There would always be gamblers who are also looking for the easy money and it is left for them to make that decision on their own on whether to gamble or not.

New ideas is the thing which pushes me to keep checking this thread often. I love to know how innovative our folks are and how much possible for the OP to implement them. Really more curious. A honest and friendly site will definitely works always even these are things which are not even innovative nor unique.

Yeah it is the waste of time. I don’t think that somebody will share his ideas before the right time. When you reply your post then we will also comment on your post and will give our new ideas of gambling. I will just tell you that you should start some regular business besides a gambling site, because gambling is not good and people like me will never support you.

in my view just stick to the oldest games such as dice, poker, blackjack or roulette because these games are so popular and plenty of fans but for your website you have to find new idea to attract more people to play at your site such as low house edge, the particular bonus for loyal players or monthly competitions which is the prize will be so huge

For gambling dice-based very much for now, I'm not sure you will succeed to be a competitor with an existing dice. And I think the game is narrow just play and role there is no possibility to add a new feature. I only have an idea, how about application-based gambling, every gambler will have a smartphone and that you can make as an opportunity. By downloading the gambling site application you have, you can already get paid from the download process.

I don’t feel like any investment at all if someone is trying to start his own gambling website. All he needs to do is code or either hire someone for this. The money that he will be spending here would be even less than 5k dollars. Now that is not a big amount for starting a business. Then comes publicity which is totally dependent upon his mind and cleverness. He can come up with tricks for attracting people.

Firstly, 5k dollars(USD) is a big money, for me at least. Secondly, however clever you are you can't make a good publicity without investing in it, and here we are talking about thousands USD again. An average signature campaign will require around $5,000 monthly, and without it you will hardly be able to draw somebody's attention to your site.

I think so you people must need a big motivational talk. Why are you doing this to humanity? Just to seek some profit as the house owner you are involving people in such disastrous game which is only the source of losing their money.

You are providing people the platform that is just a hub of worries and depression and losing everything. Don’t do this. Don’t be so selfish that you are totally becoming inhuman.

That would actually be a start but the thing here is that he will definitely have to come up with something pretty enticing to be able to break out from the stiff competition in this industry since there are so many reputable and reliable ones already offering that. I doubt if anyone will want to leave bitsler, cryptogames, fortunejack and the rest for a new site knowing how some have opened their own gambling site in the past just to end up as a scam eventually.

Still, looking for new gambling ideas must be a great initiative by OP to entertain all of us with his new venture. Success of that venture may be a secondary. But being innovative for change is the thing attracted me too here.

You should take into consideration when it comes to marketing which the thing you said on here was definitely the truth where you would spend another thousands when it comes to exposure of the site. You can make a gambling site with those funds but marketing will always give a big factor into your success. Gambling ideas ? There would be lots of it but you would really need to be unique into this market if you do like to get attention.

It's impossible to run a gambling site for only $5000 unless you are running some sort of scam.

Yes it's possible to create a gambling site for $5000 or less since most of the scripts are already out and you just need to modify them or do some out sourcing in India.

But like you said before. The advertising and marketing will be way in the 5 figures if you expect it to be successful. Making a single ANN in the gambling section of Bitcointalk won't cut it.

However the bigger factor is the bank roll, which should probably be in the six figures. No body will deposit large sums of money to a new website unless they prove solvency. Meaning they want to see at least 50> BTC in the bank roll.

he could still run a gambling site for only $5000 but he needs to do a lot of things to grow his gambling site. maybe he can search a gambling site script which is less than $1000 and modify the script if necessary. the advertising and marketing is not more than $500-$750 and if he cannot make ANN in the gambling section, he can use another site especially if he can create many free blogs with spreading a link of his gambling sites. this will need about 1 month-3 months to do until he can get many visitors.

for the bank roll, he needs to figure out how much he wants to use and I think it's fine if people are deposit small money and still playing the games. meanwhile, he can give a proof of his sites that will potential in the future. and if he can maintain this and makes something different than any gambling sites, I am sure that soon his gambling site will bigger and the bank roll will bigger too so I am sure that many gamblers that want to play in his sites.

The rules, way of gambling, authentication, registration, marketing and easy access is important for new gambling sites, because it is all about the money and one will never trust you if you cannot give authentication proofs. Capital is not a problem for starting new gambling site, the problem is to attract customers, because no customers means no business.

What kind of advertising and marketing are talking about? Do you know any effective way to advertise your product spending not more than $500-$750 on that? Imo it will be just throwing away that amount with no result.


Again, this will do nothing. There are thousands similar ventures but they don't get any attention because people used to ignore such blogs, let alone clicking links there.


That's right but he can achieve that only with proper advertisement. There is no other way these days. Being a good unique gambling site is not enough. Even Coca-Cola, being a very popular drink, spent 3.96 billion U.S. dollars on advertising in 2017. That's because they know that there's no other way to remain popular.

Apologies for bumping an old thread, but did you end up developing one of these ideas? I'm also in the early stages of setting up a new type of casino site, but I'm looking for potential partners, developers etc. I'm thinking that a simple dice game with a few special extras would be just the thing, but it's a bit more complex than it sounds so need a group of like-minded guys behind it.

That looks interesting if OP will update us on what happened to his survey here.
You can create your own thread for this one, good luck.

this is a serious problem in this forum when some people who make the threads then leave them without the slightest respect they convey related comments that have appeared, without locking the thread they have created
it will be more interesting when new threads are made to meet and get answers from every question and statement that want to be thrown ,, hopefully will be a consideration for boy130

It seem to be a normal thing now and I don't know if the surveyors are really taking our comments and concerns seriously. They want to get more information and ideas that will be beneficial to them but when it's about updates, they are forgetting to just simply lock it. Anyway, this can be reported to a mod so he can lock it.

Why you intended to make fun of people? Why you want to take money from others to make them loser and you yourself becomes stronger and profit earner. Don’t do this. Really this wouldn’t be good for all those who would become victim to your casino. Think before what you do and let this idea be shifted to something else so that things can get better and fine for you.

Customers are the major sources of income generator so not only creating a gambling website you need to provide a lot of benefits to the customers in order to attract your website. Yes, there are some techniques to attract the customers.

I would like to see some sites that would be thinking outside of the box. You said that you are interested in Dice sites, but I thing the gambling scene is flooded with those sites. What about a site where you throw a dice that moves units on a battlefield. You join forces with other players to fight the "house" in a modern day battlefield scenario.

The player can buy units based on speed and power and the more speed and power that the unit have, the higher the bets. The goal of the game is to move through the enemies <house> battlefield and to destroy units. The enemies units is small jackpots and if you manage to kill a opponents unit, then you hit a little jackpot.  ;)

you can get this on freelancer, fiverr or another else and I am sure that he can find a low budget of advertising in that site and don't forget to use google adwords with free credit. no, it depends on how he can do with that amount and he can get a nice result. just try it  ;D



I guess that you don't know anything about blog marketing  Grin with that many blogs, you can create nice backlinks that will point into your site especially if you can hire someone to do this. I am sure that you can get with a low budget too  ;D



we talk about a new site and it's different from the famous site. you need to do like Coca-Cola if your site has grown. so here is the "step by step" that I know.

1. create your unique gambling site
2. hire a team/personal to do marketing of your site, I mean this is for the whole process of the marketing
3. place an ad in the advertising ads especially in gambling site ads
4. let the time will answer  ;D
