Ritzgrandcasino is posting many days a new thread of their site...with the same 220 "free" credits (misleading) stuff.
22  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: RitzGrandCasino is not provably fair. on: March 18, 2014, 02:28:23 PM
why are they allowed to make multiple thread for 1 casino?  Forum rules say 1 per site.

I'm pretty new to direct bet but particularly interested in how you don't keep any money "on site" so everything is safe and secure. 

Is there any way to see events/games that are currently "live"?  without having to click on each individual sport.  This would be a HUGE positive for me to make iteasier if I have some free time, to get in on the action.  Thanks

Wow this follows the news about bitbook shutting down.  What are the feds closing all the gambling sites down?  At least bitbook is giving back user funds.
25  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitBook.biz - Bitcoin sportsbook - Instant Withdrawals - Widely Trusted on: March 13, 2014, 02:09:41 PM
Wow, can't believe this.  I assume because they haven't said anything it's because they were about to get busted by the feds or something.  I think they had some activity/connection inside the US, and they got too big.

Wait, stopping hosting makebtc shouldn't mean you lose your btc.  Someone still has the btc somewhere and that person should give them back.

This is fraud.  You will not ALWAYS pay, you will only pay if you get more deposits.

My guess is that this is a scam.  Try again OP.

So, with all due respect, these are the types of results I got when I was doing bitcappers.  Have you really had success handicapping, or WTF is going on here with the bad record?
32  Economy / Gambling / Re: CoinDrafts.com | Daily Fantasy Sports for Bitcoin | Freerolls Today! | Rewards on: March 10, 2014, 02:28:32 PM
I tried looking through the thread and checking the first post and couldn't find anything.  How much rollover does the "bonus" portion of account balance require before withdrawal is possible?  Thanks.
33  Economy / Gambling / Re: CoinDrafts.com | Daily Fantasy Sports for Bitcoin | Freerolls Today! | Rewards on: March 10, 2014, 02:26:08 PM
Ummm. CoinDrafts, you may want to reconsider the rules of the BIG 0.5BTC Freeroll.

There is no skill involved in it. Its a bit of a joke. Allowing 1 player to enter 10+ teams etc. What's the point of that? With so many opportunities to configure lineups - a handful of players will sweep the prize.

You may as well divided it up between them now and do away with it.

The players are only going the rules, but surely it takes away the fun. Just taking advantage of not well thought out rules.

It should be like a poker satellite - you get a ticket - you get 1 seat in the next level up game.

I disagree with your point, but I do agree that the tournament has gotten somewhat ridiculous.  DFS isn't a poker tournament, it's playing the odds on players.  Thus entering multiple teams into tournaments is +ev, since you can use different combinations to maximize your exposure.  I'll often enter multiple teams in the .005 GPP, and in fiat DFS I've at times entered 30+ teams into the same giant tournament.

Limiting each player to one entry defeats the purpose of having a large target tournament...everyone will have one.  You might as well advocate eliminating the sat tournaments altogether.  

I do think that it needs to be done away with/modified.  It's become the focal point of the site, and the real-btc games are barely getting any action.  It's lead to a lot of people just grinding those and tooling up the chat, which is lose-lose for everyone.  I did well in the tournament the last week, but have stopped playing the sats because there are going to be ~300-400 entries into the tournament so each ticket is going to be worth very very little.  Not really worth it to me to grind all of the free sats.

My suggestion?  Keep everything the same (10 man SNGs, fire on-demand) but have there be a small buy-in, maybe .001BTC.  It'll operate more like a traditional sat, defer some of the cost for CD, ect.  Or perhaps have the buyin for the sats be CDP since there is no other use for them at the moment?  Either way, I just think that you need to incentivize people to participate in the real-btc games on the site, not decentivize them from doing so.

What you say is fair, and you come across as reasonable. And i too would like to see the action focused more on the buy-in games.
So we both want the best for the site because we both think it's great.

But all i am saying is the 'Big one' can be manipulated towards those that have the most time to spend rather than the most/any skill.

You can either 'grind out' the free sats - or you can set up 10 accounts - put all those 10 accounts into the same 10 man free sat - and end up with 3 guaranteed tickets. Pick the same 3 accounts each time to get all the tickets and at the end of the week have those 3 accounts each enter the big one 30 times each - NO Skill at all - just time in going through the motions.

Then with those 90 (or whatever the number is) tickets, skew the big one away from genuine players looking to test their skill and have fun with the site, towards yourself.
Basically its taking advantage of the rules to steal from the site.

Now i am NOT SAYING ANYONE IS DOING THIS at the moment. Just saying it can be done. And its no fun putting in 1 team and seeing another player with 20 teams. And its not because that player is more skillfull - its just that they spent more time. And i do not think the reward should go to the time rich.

It will get old and boring pretty quick - and kill the site - if the rules are not looked at. I agree with the suggestion you made. That'll help things.



I previously pointed out this issue and agree with you goose.  I don't have time or the inclination to set up 10 accounts or enter all the satellites to get the tickets.  It's a joke.

Winning anything in the free rolls is next to impossible now for normal-medium quality- players with "quone17 and the gang"  Wink , Pretty cool game though,I will be improving my picks and playing with real BTC's now.
'

Why would you mention me?  I think I've placed in about 4 freerolls, out of like 20 or 30.  Get a life.

I don't know if I've even gotten any earnings from affiliates lately to be honest.  is it still even working?
37  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitBook.biz - Bitcoin sportsbook - Instant Withdrawals - Widely Trusted on: March 06, 2014, 08:09:35 PM
LIke I said, the admin's communication has decreased markedly since the early days of this book.  I also used a "fiat" book recently and the live betting is SO much better than bitbook.  I'd love if bitbook could get better live better as the poster above said but bitbook has shown limited interest in actually improving the book lately.

Okay... Anyone else actually talked to them?

I'd go back and see where their last post was on here.  I don't know of anyone who's gotten personal e-mails etc. with them.
38  Economy / Gambling / Re: Your betting experience. on: March 06, 2014, 08:08:46 PM
Can I just advise you to be VERY careful about gambling.  It is very addicting, and it can come out of nowhere.  So just make sure it's only for fun, in reasonable amounts of money.
39  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sport Betting Picks on: March 06, 2014, 08:02:11 PM
Well, I'm going to have a problem with the late posting time of your plays.  I understnad that you apparently need to see the line movement and final line etc. before making something a pick, I'm just disappointed I won't be able to tail most picks.  And, I hate only tailing a few picks of someone because I'll end up getting the "bad" ones Smiley
