Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Working with NLNico we have made it easier to verify your bets.

On the provably fair tab there is now a button that says click to verify.
After you generate a new seed and click that button you will be taken to http://dicesites.com/pocketrocketscasino/verifier but all the fields will be filled in with your seed data and results shown to you right away.

So no need to copy paste all separately. Also copy and pasting is made easier now in case you wish to send the data to another verifier or a friend.

That's new. Good idea, I may give it a try.

Are the prizes paid from investors' funds/profits go to investors? Or is it independent from bankroll?

Will the wins/losses be included in players' stats and are the tickets bought included in referral system?

Thanks.

Currently the prize is from PRC not investors. If there's enough interest (players playing) and investor interest I may open up to investors.
I just wanted to test the idea first.
After the first draw you will see a results panel for wins and losses but it's not part of your stats that show on dice. You will also see previous draws and be able to verify the results.
I think each game (including new ones) will have independent stats and then I'll add some sort of global stats page for a user.
Currently no referral for lottery. I would need to think of best way to do this.

So when choosing 9 numbers out of 49 and getting 7,8 or 9 correct, I'm awarded the 10 BTC jackpot that I would've gotten for just 6. Is that correct?

No. You can't match 7 8 or 9 as only 6 numbers are drawn. So you have more numbers to try and match 6. Better odds.

Thanks for the clarification. I just did the math and got house edges ranging from 59.2157% to 99.0733%. Shocked

This was something we discussed in the chat and is now being reviewed. Prizes and ticket price may be updated. Or the format may change.

I assumed that anyone playing the 7,8,9 ball game would only do so to try and have more chance of hitting jackpot.

They do, but you charge 30x as much for someone to have a 7x chance of winning it. The numbers don't really make any sense Tongue

Removed the 7,8,9 ball options and come up with a better price/prize.

It was not meant for or expected any seasoned gamblers to try and play. It was a little fun since people kept asking for a lotto in chat.
I'll change it tonight.

First draw had one winner though Smiley

I checked the math, and it seems fine. Here are my numbers, along with the price per ticket you need to charge to have a 1% edge:

It's good of you to remove the 97%, 98%, and 99% house edge games, but you're still running the 59% edge 6-pick game. 59% is really excessive for a house edge. Players would be better of playing the state lottery.

Also, what do you do if multiple people match 6 numbers? If you share the 10 BTC prize between them then the house edge is even higher than 59%.

Edit: also note that if you are sharing the 10 BTC jackpot between winning players then the game isn't provably fair either. The house knows which numbers will win and can play them to reduce the amount it has to pay out to real winners.

Yeah just chatting on site about this and it's still far too high for even the normal 6 numbers game. So I have taken that off too for now.

It was intended as a little side game for fun as people mentioned it in chat (though using dice rolls to pick numbers etc) but there was an error in my edge calculation making it not too fair.

I'll modify it tonight to have less edge.

Modified the lottery game.

Prizes are now:
6 numbers = 10 Bitcoin
5 numbers = 2 Bitcoin
4 numbers = 0.52 Bitcoin (increased)
3 numbers = 0.02 Bitcoin (increased)

The ticket prices for 7,8 and 9 ball games are now all much smaller.
6 balls = 0.001 Bitcoin
7 balls = 0.00204 Bitcoin
8 balls = 0.00373 Bitcoin
9 balls = 0.0063 Bitcoin

Modified the lottery game.

Prizes are now:
6 numbers = 10 Bitcoin
5 numbers = 2 Bitcoin
4 numbers = 0.52 Bitcoin (increased)
3 numbers = 0.02 Bitcoin (increased)

The ticket prices for 7,8 and 9 ball games are now all much smaller.
6 balls = 0.001 Bitcoin
7 balls = 0.00204 Bitcoin
8 balls = 0.00373 Bitcoin
9 balls = 0.0063 Bitcoin

Now I get a little over 10% house edge for each game, assuming that the 10 BTC prize isn't shared, and even higher if it is shared.

Do you get the same?

And is the 10 BTC 'jackpot' shared between winners if multiple people hit it?

Yes I get the same numbers if the jackpot wasn't split:

Yes same results, around 10% is the intention. The jackpot is split.
The edge will decrease as the prizepool increases.
Depending on the popularity I may allow investment in the lottery prizepool which would allow obviously a higher prize but would decrease the edge further.
