G A M B L E R S ❗❗ What are your thoughts on this?

[Guzter]

Assume you have $100 and must choose between the two casino versions shown below to turn a proft. Which will you choose?

1. Casino A:
Players in this casino compete against the platform (house) in games such as BlackJack, Rollet, Slots, etc... .
In this type of casino, players must rely on luck and other factors to make a profit.

2. Casino B:
Players in this casino compete against each others in games such as Ludo, Poker, Rummy, etc... .
In this type of casino, players rely on their luck and skills to make a profit.
There is only one winner in each game (Ludo: first place, Poker/Rummy: last man standing).

If you don't want to express your thoughts, simply answer with A or B.

P.S: Here is an example of Casino B, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5352967.0.

As for me, i'm pretty certain I'll go with B.

[fiulpro]

Well I do think that if am really good at this game which am competing for then I would rather use option B. If am probably not really sure about what am doing then I do think think it would even work I would probably go with B for sure.

B sounds more fun hands down.

Therefore I would rather evaluate my decisions and then make an informed decision as well.. Both ways you need a lot of luck but in one you need skills as well.

How about moving this topic to Gambling Discussion board.

I've always disliked online casinos because of their algorithms, which cause the odds to be stacked against you, but playing against humans who aren't connected to the platform is much more enjoyable because I'm pretty sure we all have the same odds.

I didn't realize it was off topic; tell me how to move it and I'll do so. Sorry tho!

[tulusikhlas]

Naturally, because I am a gambler who is dominant in playing slots, so I will choose point A. Maybe because I rely on luck according to what I have in terms of gambling knowledge. I know that it is a big risk that the funds will often lose rather than win against the casino house itself. But for me controlling losses is a good way, even though we will be played by the house in gambling, it doesn't mean we are lazy and don't have a strategy. If the victory has been obtained, then I prefer to withdraw it first in order to minimize losses.

[Dragonfund]

A game should be fair, even if luck is sometimes part of what makes it entertaining. I'll go with B since I don't want to risk with other factors that may or may not favor one of us. If I play using my skills, I have a fair and high probability of winning because my experience and observations are based on them.
Playing against an opponent gives me an advantage in determining my opponent's next move and plans, but playing a game with the house is always a no for me because only a few players emerged as winners.

Bottom left side corner of this thread, you will notice that there is an option to either move / lock topic



Take this as a friendly suggestion but I think you should probably lock this thread after you move it to gambling discussion board. Thread like this has the potential to become another mega spam thread

There is a significant difference between playing against a player and playing against the odds xd

Thanks a lot for helping me out with moving this topic. I'm really interested in hearing others opinion on this topic, so don't you think locking this thread won't match with my interests?

2. Casino B:
Players in this casino compete against each others in games such as Ludo, Poker, Rummy, etc... .
In this type of casino, players rely on their luck and skills to make a profit.
There is only one winner in each game (Ludo: first place, Poker/Rummy: last man standing).

I will go with the B answer but you should set how much will be deducted for the house as a service fee. If we can play agaist each other in a decentralized app where nobody can control the system or manipulate the rules, it would be amazing in social gaming. Betting against other players is more transparent and funny than betting against the house. I think the great majority of users will choose option B, however few other may chose option A because their favorite games can't be played in groups.

Let's say a 5% fee!

There being only 1 winner in the B scenario is a deterrent against selecting that option. Having been in crypto for years, I remember there being a player versus player (pvp) trivia website where players could compete for crypto winnings. Some suspect the owner of the trivia website participated in games. There was one player who knew the answer to every question who won a lot more than they probably should. Those types of potential scams, which have been around for many years, raise suspicion with the "1 winner per game" format.

That said, I think I would still prefer option B over option A. Simply due to it giving the impression that chances of winning might be more fair or balanced than competing against a house algorithm.

[jrrsparkles]

If you want to make profits with the money you have and you are offering only one between these two then B is better choice because pvp games maybe mich easier comparing against winning the house but still there is no assurance of winning it.

[noorman0]

I chose A, because option B I can do it in real life. LOL

This question is basically whether you prefer to play against bots (code) or humans. Not the main consideration for choosing a casino platform because the two options are just variants of the game which one company can provide all of them. I can bet weekly for my favorite sports clubs and while I can play crash every day.

[ralle14]

I'd choose casino A here I know i'll get crushed by the house edge later on but on the other hand I suck at those last man standing type of games where there's only one winner so from my perspective i'm better off taking my chances against the house compared to pvp games. I still like gambling against others once in a while like lotteries and certain contests but they're somewhat difficult to maintain I remember there's one casino who tried launching a coinflip gambling site then it ended up failing due to lack of interest.  

[Maus0728]

Well, if I have to play a game that requires the skills to compete with other players, then why not choose casino b over casino a? I mean it is a no brainer to participate on something where strategic gameplay influences the chances of winning rather playing based on pure luck.

And I'd rather play with human than with bots.

Assume you have $100 and must choose between the two casino versions shown below to turn a proft. Which will you choose?

I can not give a clear A or B answer to that because it always depends on in what mood i currently am. To be honest most of the times i just want to gamble a little without having to be totally focused and alert all the time and then i just listen to some music and watch some Videos and stuff like that while i play the slot machine for example. Whenever i feel like playing in a more competitive way then i choose games like poker where i can play against real opponents.

[Bttzed03]

It depends on the time that's available to gamble for me. Casino B would likely take a lot of time and require focus than Casino A which I can easily set on auto. I'm not the type of player that's really good at these games but playing against other players was definitely fun based on personal experience though.
