This is great!

Server just crashed- lost the .75ish I had. My username is success if that helps, but it seems to have happened to others as well. Other than that, its neat.

If you are ever looking for someone to help you with pixel art for the custom skin.. *cough*

Our server was having some problems. No money was lost, it was just unable to connect to display your balance so it came up as 0

If you still have problems let me know!

One thing that occurred to me about the provable fairness:

For roulette, minefield, and pig racing, there's no such thing as a "bad deal" for the player.  You pick the result in advance, publish the hash, and the user can verify after the event that you chose the result before they bet, so you can't be cheating.  (Well, if a player is playing red over and over again you could deliberately pick black over and over, and publish a hash of you picking black before the player places his bet).

With blackjack however, there is such a thing as a "bad deal".  When you're playing against a single player you can deliberately pick shuffles which give the dealer blackjack more often than he should.

The way most provably fair blackjack sites (all 2 of them?) work is that they allow the player to provide part of the random seed, publish the server half of the random seed before the game, and publish the shuffle algorithm.  That way the casino has no way of picking preferable shuffles.  bitZino has this great writeup about how it works.

Currently your blackjack doesn't appear to be provably fair.  All you seem to be proving is that you picked the (possibly rigged) deck before the players played, rather than during or after.

I think minefield can be a bad deal through. Humans are pretty bad at generating randomness, and some grids would be dug more often than others. The operator could weigh the mines to those grids more, giving them a higher house edge.

In fact this could be tailored to the player since it is a one player game - store a record of their grid digs, and personalize it individually.

Yes.  The same goes for pig racing and roulette too.  Some players will tend to bet more on long-odds pigs, others will more often back the favourites.  Some players favour red, some always bet on zero, etc.  But if the player plays randomly, there's no "bad deal".  In blackjack there is.
