If im the house edge and create bets which are odds on for me, how can a player who competes with us win anything?
That's the whole point of the platform. It allows both sides to profit. The house edge becomes mathematically operative only when games are played many times. Gamblers, gamble. You win some, you lose some. All casinos have built in edge. Even the 0% edge casinos have an "edge". Except their edge is the exploitation of human error.
VIABET works in a different manner all together (although you can create games with 0% edge if you wish).
Allow me to quote a section from the VIABET Whitepaper:
IV. Cloud Betting Explained
The VIABET platform enables online players to bet against other online players
using cryptocurrencies, where one player acting as the casino is given the house
odds. For example, “USER A” is able to open a roulette table, or open a slot
machine while other users play against him/her. The player enjoys the same odds
and will profit from the slots and table profits as if he/she was the casino.
In order to qualify to become "the casino" “USER A” has to purchase and stake
VIA Tokens, play a certain amount of game rounds as a regular player against
the VIABET casino, or against other players who have qualified to become the
casino. Each time “USER A” plays a round of any of the VIABET casino games
he/she earns Edge Tokens.
After earning a specific amount of tokens “USER A” will qualify to become the
casino and will be able to offer and open games himself/herself which will allow
other players to play against him/her. The player has access to various game
customization options, such as setting the house “edge” % for each individual
casino game he/she creates.
When a regular player plays against VIABET he/she doesn't have to pay a
commission, but when he/she plays against other qualifying players who became
“the casino” then he/she or the qualifying player will have to pay VIABET a
commission for operating, maintaining and administering the plays within the
system.
Players who have qualified to become “the casino” will be prepared to pay these
commissions since they will be enjoying and benefiting from improved “house”
odds. Playing players will be prepared to pay these commissions since the
VIABET casino will offer more Edge Tokens when players play against each
other, which means that players who have the desire to become “the casino”, can
achieve this goal much quicker by playing against other users.
