imo, having the same investment across all sites isn't a good idea.
Do the math and find the best investments (ROI). Consider how secure the investment is. Allocate a portion of the portfolio considering both of them (additionally consider the growth rate too). Review and make changes to the portfolio kind of every 2 weeks or so.
I have invested in 3 sites, all doing pretty good. Around 0.2% daily ROI estimate. Lost some because of CLAM price crashing, but still holding on for a couple of months.
This is for example, how I plan to make my portfolio.
Site %
secret dice site 45%
BitDice.me 30%
Other major sites (MP, JD (high risk), etc.) 10%, 10% and 5%.

Hey everybody.
So here we are.. I'm kleineaap and fibo.
Long long shit ass story about how I turned the faucet into real money, then lost it, then got it back, then got more into it, etc, etc.
My swings of losing and winning were so large that at some point I was -30 on two different accounts. I was broke. Waited a long time so I could buy in again and challenge my losses.
-30, -12, + 5, +17, -22, etc.
One night, facing the inevitability of my personal life, I put down 3 BTC that I turned into 20. Cashed out and put ten more. Lose, win, cashout, deposit. When I looked at my wallet again I had 60 BTC.
I decided to deposit 10 more for fun, which I lost.
Then I went all in. 50 BTC. Hardly got any greens, it was over in under 5 mins.
I lost 10k in my currency trying to gamble my future. The future I don't have anymore. A few months left to live. I will spend that time finding the best family to my little daughter.
I do have her covered. I'm not a jerk completely. I wanted to give her a plus, a push, a jump, so I risked around 2000 euros to make it happen.
It didnt work. My life in this forum is done as well.
Thanks for the company and support and the good wishes. I am fibo. I probably tipped and rained many of you. When I'm gone, make sure you tip yourself along the way.
Be good.
It is completely expected. Once you are up and have 50 BTC, you go all-in? Where is the sense in that? Every time I deposit something to a dice site, I already consider it lost. I expect nothing back. Only then do you truly understand whether you can really afford to risk it or not. (I learned the hard way too, but my RL life is barely affected coz I keep it independent. except may be I am spending too much time here). You don't gamble your future either. That is not sensible. Suppose you had won that 50 streak, I think you will play again. Once you are ahead, you quit, or you are going to lose all the profit and your bankroll to the house. Every single bet is independent means for every single roll the house as 1% more chance to win your bet. If you see that, you will understand there is completely no logic in doing all-in. Worst possible strategy: 1. Go all in. 2. Win? Wait a month and go to 1. 3. Lose? Try to recover it back. Probability of losing your balance to the house = 100%. No less. tl;dr. Play for fun. Not for hitting it big. If you want to hit big, do a single 9900x, consider yourself unlucky and quit.  If you bet for fun (the top part of the story) and lost it, you aren't gambling with your future exactly, and don't complain.  |

Initial bet : 0.0001BTC
On lose multiply by : 1.0001010101x
Playing at 9900x
If you win your first bet you stop with a profit of 9899 * 0.0001 = 0.9899 BTC The goal is to make a profit of 1 BTC. I think you need to play with a higher multiplier or something. hehehe yeah.  |

Initial bet : 0.0001 BTCOn lose multiply by : 1.0001010101x Playing at 9900x With a bankroll of 1 BTC, the player can afford 6912 rolls. Chance to win is 49.90770579% on 1% edge. ? or is it 49.5567818%? |

today's my birthday
Happy birthday!  On the other side, (quote from PD mod on deposit delays on PD) Yeah bitcoin network is again under some attacks. Deposits/withdrawals can be a bit delayed.
Don't worry though, all deposits/withdrawals are safe and they will be credited.

... Conflicts can easily arise, for instance I have made those two bets assuming the time zone to be UTC. It is especially relevant to the daily one coz a couple of hours can completely change the winners.
You made 4 bets on 16/10/2015, for the wagerwarz day 17th. None of your bets were place after closed the day ( 16th 23.59ET), although you are assuming the time zone would be UTC. »»here««»»here««»»here««»»here««
7. All bets are FINAL and no refunds unless the contest is cancelled.
3. Betterbets.io reserve the rights to cancel, end or change the details of this promotions without any further notice.
Cheers!! ●‿● I meant the conflict on how the winner is selected, not the deadline on making bets which is relatively much less significant.
Conflicts arise when it works like this. It is relevant to daily warz (not much for weekly one).
In a case when the winners would be different in either cases, say Betterbets would have higher wagered amount when UTC time is taken while PRC has higher when ET time is taken, the players who bet on Betterbets can raise a claim for paying them out.
Fine, I understand. But keep the terms reasonable. You can't just switch to different time zones without announcing it. It would have been okay if you were just sticking to the weekly warz, but it is very significant when it comes to daily ones. 5 extra hours and 5 less hours, offsets results by 10 hours.
I was checking the today leaderboard of PRC which is most certainly UTC/GMT.
Moreover, if you don't mention it, it would be reasonably assumed you are following UTC/GMT which is the standard. Eastern time isn't.Resolved. thanks  |

Well, there was a misunderstanding. I know all bets are final. If you could, I request a refund on all 4 bets placed.
IIRC, a bet on Rollin, a bet on PRC, a bet >250 and a bet <450.
Edit: ndnhc's daily wars forecast.
Winner on current observations : PRC (highroller active there atm)
Above 250.
At least two of my bets will win. But still I prefer a refund.Resolved. |

EST  It should be UTC. I think you are wrong there. dicesites.com is following the Eastern Time Zone because he collects the entire data based on that timezone. Would be quite a bit difficult to maintain and collect two sets of data. Wager warz should be running on UTC/GMT time zone or is already. 4. We will accept bet until 21th of October 23.59.59 GMT+0, in which odds would be lower for the winning site as the time goes; Hi. The wagerwarz will be running accordingly to dicesites The timezone in the main rules, already chance to prevent more confusions. Cheers!! ●‿● hmm, when you make the changes, you should announce the changes. Or how do the players know? AFAIK, the competition was suddenly shifted from UTC/GMT to ET after Nico posted that the site was running on ET time. Considering that there is no mention of which time zone is being accepted either in OP or in subsequent posts, confusions can arise esp. in the case of daily warz. For instance right now the winners would change depending on which time zone you pick. It is okay when you are running a giveaway like skipping to mention what source the bitcoin price will be taken from etc. but in this case when you are accepting bet from players and they are risking the money, they should be aware what exactly they are betting at. Conflicts can easily arise, for instance I have made those two bets assuming the time zone to be UTC. It is especially relevant to the daily one coz a couple of hours can completely change the winners. |

Competition is going on as per UTC time, right? So for daily competition ones http://dicesites.com/wager-warz (which uses Eastern Time) is only partly reliable, am I right? I was talking to Nico in our chat and he said his site currently is in EST time zone. I dont think he has changed it yet Yeah of course. Nico already had said so and it is mentioned in the site too. So I assume competition is based on UTC time, yes? At the moment the wagered amount for (today/17th) Betterbets is just 2 BTC (Edit: now 3) and PRC 1 BTC or am I missing something Edit: PRC as per data from the site is ~6 BTCall of the side betting action and wager warz is on EST. NLNicos site is EST. It also doesn't auto update. Refresh every 20 mins to see real numbers. EST It should be UTC. you guys changed it in the middle!  dicesites.com is following the Eastern Time Zone because he collects the entire data based on that timezone.

Wagered amounts started counting http://dicesites.com/wager-warzRemember my site uses time between 1 Oct 00:00 ET and 14 Oct 23:59 ET. In your local timezone this is: Between [time]Thu Oct 1 04:00:00 2015[/time] and October 15, 2015, 03:59:59 AM (based on your forum settings.) |

Well, here is what I have observed (no guarantees regarding the accuracy tho): 1. Deposit transactions are mostly credited manually and not automatic. At least all my deposits were credited manually but the OP of that thread blames it on blockchain.info API for every single delay. I think your deposit would be credited if you ask him about it. 2. All withdrawals seem to be coming from funds deposited by players. This is a very concerning. The only thing sustaining the game is the fee for instant withdrawal. If the hot wallet balance is not adequate to cover the withdrawal which is usually instant it shows up "Server Error" and you can do nothing than wait. OP inactive since 17th May. Edit: This seems to be your hot wallet. https://blockchain.info/address/1MnVvgmoocr7SQNEFEdShRXVsxeVTYi7AZAll deposits go there. All withdrawals come from there. As soon as deposits < withdrawals (i.e. the address does not have funds to cover your withdrawals), you get server error.
That is precisely how ponzi works. Please top up the address with at least 1 BTC.In other words, players get withdrawals only when 10% of withdrawals > the amount given away by the site towards to pot. If you read ndnhc posts you can see deposits are not always credited and there are some problems with it at this moment. I would rather wait and see what is going on there for now.
Thank you for the good words. Deposits and Payments are processed instantly and automatically by our system. At some point Blockchain.info (Bitcoin API) can work slower, that's what was experienced yesterday,and we can't do anything at that point, only wait. all the transactions are still processed instantly when they're system starts to work correctly. Usually it's not longer than hour that they experience server lags. Edit2: If you had paid attention to the thread, have you seen anyone who got deposit credited instantly? (unless may be OP of the thread was online then) Anyway there have been a lot of complaints.
My deposit has not credited either even after 20+ confirmations as of the writing. Please fix it. -snip- sorry,,why my deposit not credited?
its been 4 confirmation and on the site ,it said that only need 3 confirmation for deposit to be credited..right?
and many more. |

By the way, I don't understand much about dice, but what do you think about directbet dice? Since you can make parlays with it. Does it make it more profitable?
Nope, it still have a negative 1% EV (parlay or no parlay the odds are the same). Profitable to the owners as expected in the long run. |

Get an escrow to hold the $100 AND to select a random number. And by the way, lottery is not a giveaway. Change the title for one. |

If a player becomes a boss would the bet amount be refunded?

I made a 0.04 bet on Betterbets before the odds changed. Now can I bet on PocketRocketCasino with a 0.025 bet?

Just noticed that deposits require 2 confirmations before being credited.
In the past the money was credited as soon the transaction was broadcasted(in few seconds), but withdraws were only allowed after one confirmation. Why the change? IIRC at least from early 2015 deposits required 1 confirmation. If the money is credited as soon as the deposit tx is broadcasted, it would make it vulnerable to one or more kinds of blockchain attack - to confirm the deposit if he makes a profit or to leave it unconfirmed if he loses it or in case of a duplicate transaction from malleability attack it would be kind of a free 100% bonus which would give player more advantage. Only allowing confirmed deposits is an easier and more secure way. |
