API bets are insanely slow right now.

Site pd3.co seem out

Bets made using API keys were slow for some reason, this was fixed today. Not sure if that's how you were betting. Also bets in general should be much faster now.

We made some changes under the hood today that significantly increased roll speeds. Also the API page is now live (available under the more dropdown menu).

Updates for tomorrow: fixed hotkeys, mobile changes.

Feel free to post any suggestions

Thanks Stunna. Any way that the /Tip function can/will feature private tipping ?

Has any1 been feeling primedice is very laggy right now? I can barely roll on there

Let me know if this persists.

It's a 1 in ~102,596,558 chance to get 27 reds in a row.
But you don't bet just once, do you? No. You bet multiple times. Hence, more possibilities to lose.

It's a 1 in ~176,059,567 chance to get 27 greens in a row.
But you don't get more than one chance. If you falter on that 49.5% win rate on any of your 27 bets, you lose.

Do you see the difference in odds? More a 70% difference. 70% rarer to get greens than reds.

This is the house edge. This is statistics.

Every single wager you place returns you [statistically] 99% of what you wagered (given this h.e.).
Example:

You bet 1 BTC on 50% twice. You win once and you lose once. You get 0.98 BTC back.
You gained 1.98 BTC on the winning bet, and you lost 1 BTC on the losing bet. You "broke even" but still lost.

The odds are not roughly the same. Nowhere near.

Continuing on, the odds for red would only increase as you bet more and more. This is not an opinionated answer. These are raw facts.

Continue your ignorance, or face the fact that you don't understand how "provably fair" works.

More bets doesn't necessarily = more wagered if the bets are dust or only small fractions of BTC.

Let's say you have 100 users running bots with a base bet of 100 satoshi, and bet speed is hiked to 3 bets per second.  100 x 0.00000100 x 3 = 0.0003 wagered BTC per second, now let's multiply that into a per day basis, so 0.0003 x 60 x 60 x 24 = 25 BTC wagered in a 24-hour period.

Obviously some people will have a much higher base that 100 satoshi or a high increase on loss or whatever, but even if your theoretical increase in wagered per day was 100-200 BTC, multiply that by the 1% House Edge and you get 1-2 BTC income from the potential bet speed gain per day, and that's only if people lose statistically to the House Edge, excluding outliers.

So from a math standpoint, you're looking at a POSSIBLE, if not highly improbable (taking into account HR winners, people with bots that succeed instead of lose, and counting outliers) gain of 1-2 bct per day, and the cost of upgrading the hardware to match a 3 bet per second standard even with PD's sheer bet volume is probably 50-100x that amount.

So arguably, not worth it, at least not yet.

OP has refused to answer me despite the fact that I have asked him multiple times here and on PD chat. Yes they could upgrade hardware/hosting, but they don't.. I've probably asked all dice site owners the same thing at some point in the past, and usually the answer is that it costs too much to upgrade, but those sites (FD, JD, FJ, Bitsler) roll speeds are overall a lot faster than PD. PD is certainly not low on funds if they can hold a 20BTC giveaway (bingo). Also this is a problem for most players on PD, or rather an annoyance.

Bets seem slower since most recent maintenance ...

THIS!

My questions concerning faster roll speeds also never gets answered, so don't feel left out. 

Still seeing a "Too many requests (slow down!)" error. Was hoping PD4 would fix this...
