Good job with the site Benson, the 0% house advantage will be hard for your competitors to match  Would like to see provably fair added in soon as users have already brought up. Yea, 0% would be pretty hard to match unless they're making a whole lot on advertising. At any rate I think they said it's temporary here. Could go 0% house edge probably after the game pays for its build atleast. Could but why would you? Doesn't seem to be a very popular option. Can also go 0% house edge if there is a sponsor who would like to use the site to advertise their products.
That's what I said. |

mtgox: http://bitcoinity.org/markets?exchange=mtgox (a bit laggy while their API is still not fully functional) tradehill: http://bitcoinity.org/markets?exchange=tradehillI just wanted to create some thread to collect feedback. Ideas or problem reports are welcome. Basically I just created it to have some live ticker on my unused 15" LCD (so it's kinda optimized for 1024x768 full screen), but since some poeple started using it, I'm developing it a bit more. More features coming soon. I found this site after reading a thread where someone posted a screenshot of it. Looks good, I like how the market depth chart is adjustable with zooming and the change bars time. I think I will use this often. |

1. "tmpb" makes a thread accusing every major site of being a scam
2. tmpb is himself, a scammer
3. Hundreds of idiots and trolls congratulate him for making this trash thread
I really don't see hundreds congratulating him. Mostly just him and people like you arguing in this thread, maybe I have to reread it though. It does seem like a popular thread. Maybe he can add some of the recent scam postings and note that they're under review type of thing until he gets to take a closer look at them. It also might help if it's noted which are proven scams for sure or not. |

If you mean just-di(c)e. their profit are mostly gone to all of us small investors. Those coins are ust owned by another guy. And seriously. Jd is already good enough to let the coins circulate. Some whale loses their coins. Those coins goes profit to all little investors.
Think about how the coins go now bro.
Right now I think a few big investors have majority of the stake, so don't count them out. Then there's some funds with a stake also. |

I guess this paves the way for more regulations and other B/S as well. Then again with all the trouble Mt. Gox was having maybe we're already at that point.

Next difficulty estimated at 44 million so far, it's still some number of days away so could get a bit higher even. Could see quite a nice jump this time.

Was just browsing the site, and notice the events weren't sorting by which ends soonest as they normally do. I assumed it was intended for them to be sorted that way automatically as there's no option to chose what it sorts by yet. If you do add that option I would think sort by ending, sort by most popular, sort by newest added would make good choices.
Yes, it is now sorted so that the smallest bid/ask spread are shown first. We might add a way to select how to order the contracts like you are suggesting. Ok, wouldn't have thought of that. Was nice sorted by ending soonest since I mostly bet on short term ones. |

I didn't know they were even close. Well deserved by bitstamp, and a long time coming for the unreliable Mt. Gox. |

Hi,
I've seen similar sites and I just don't understand it well enough. Say I want to say YES for an item and it theres a green "BID" price and a red "sell" price, which would I pick? I assume it would be the green one or something. And my payout would be 10? Its confusing to me. I wish they just said click here if you want yes, you pay this. Click here if you want no you pay this price. Payout is always 10mbtc. Please explain it for me, I apologize but would like to give your site a shot once I understand it better.
I don't like the way it reads either. I would like it to say bid/ask(or maybe add this in parenthesis). "Sell at" is kind of strange for me. |

I saw that also. It doesn't mean much with the market depth they have right now though. |

Big Feature Update!We are very happy to begin offering Live Betting on all MLB games! Tonight BitBook will begin a Beta test for our live betting feature. Please check it out and let us know any comments, questions, or suggestions! We will be offering live odds on all MLB games tonight. Here is how it will work: - Live odds will be posted at bitbook.biz/live
- We will post odds during each half-inning break. We may miss a few breaks, but we should usually have odds
- All bets will be settled based on the final score of the game
For our Beta trial we will have slightly lower max bets than normal, but soon we will be raising them. Thanks to everyone for the continued support! We are very excited to release this and look forward to any feedback from the community. Sounds good. Going to try out the live betting soon. |

The title is a bit weirdly worded, I don't mean this in a bad way at all. But, I've been seeing a bunch of new dice games, you first had SatoshiDice,then PrimeDice,Just-Dice,Insanitydice(lol),Gigadice, etc.
Now, disregarding Insanitydice, why do so many people play these sites? I've checked PrimeDice,Just-Dice, and Satoshidice out, but I barely see any difference. Again, I don't mean this in a negative way at all, I am merely curious.
I think people are trying to capitalize on the success of SatoshiDice. Also the gamblers are probably playing for fun when bored mostly. |

Wish I could play, but too poor..
Then go to #arena on coinchat. Lower betting amounts. Also, someone play today! I'm guessing you're the current champ. Maybe they can give prizes for top several on the leaderboad. |

Well that post was good for amusement purposes. Some people will try anything. |

My point is that your return on a single bet is better than your return on multiple bets. When considered as a probability.
For a given bankroll you will end up with more money by placing a single bet.
But this is an average over many possible outcomes. An actual gambler making a single bet has one particular outcome, either wins or loses the entire bankroll.
Here is another way to state it. If you took the average gain of all the people who make one bet only they would have a higher return than the average of all the people who make many bets. And of course all of these people would on average have a negative return.
Now that I say it that way it doesn't sound correct. This is why I avoid saying stuff. I'll think about it later.
I can't find the post but about 20 pages before this one doog confirms that when you split a bet into two smaller bets, you end up with slightly higher EV That's wrong, you would only have a better chance of winning at least 1 bet, obviously. EV wouldn't change. Also you can go for a long time with martingale, but the odds aren't any better. |

Not sure why you would post that in this thread. Are you suggesting this as a bet on Predictious? |

I'm taking a look at this. It's a bit different than the other dice games, seems like it might be hard to win with the current rule set. Not sure why it asks me how many games I want to play, when I can just withdraw or play as I see fit.
edit: ok, I see it doesn't just let you continue with your winnings. There's no way to check recent or pending transactions yet.
