Here's our thoughts on Satoshi Dice. You can find all our reviews at https://thebitcoinstrip.com/reviews.html.

If I'm missing a casino or if you think I got some details wrong, let me know.

The site reviews look great, but it would be even better if you can add a filter function so that we can have a list of bitcoin gambling sites or provably fair sites or sites with invest option, depending on our needs.

SatoshiBet is missing I think.
By the way a question, how BitCasino is considered not provably fair?

[elephantas1]

Is it possible to vote on the page? Because if not how its honest? Do you have any statistics or something?

Vote for what? If you are talking about writing a review, you can do that on the casino page. For example, you can write a Primedice review here.

Nah, you must have missed it. It's there. BitCasino is listed as not provably fair because, as far as I can see, it isn't. I don't see anything on the website indicating that it is.

I'm getting blind sorry

New: Added a Casino ranking section at https://thebitcoinstrip.com/leaderboard.html.

Site looks good but there have been sites with same concept before and they either died or were not updated. Let's hope you keep this up and running and honest.

Very nice site! Just one minor correction for MoneyPot, the house edge is actually 0 to 1%, as opposed to 1%. This is more than a technicality, as most best are placed with a pretty low house edge (our historical house edge has been 0.11%). Also for the careful gambler, playing with +EV is quite realistic. For someone who cares about gambling with the best odds, it's pretty unique.

Also, there's a stats page: https://www.moneypot.com/stats which you can scrape. The stats load take a few seconds, as they're computed on demand (and cached for 5 minutes) but if that's something you would like improved, it's not a problem for me to do so.

Thanks again!

I wonder what caused the decline of hearing a lot about satoshidice recently.

IMO, there are too many dice sites in the market offering a lower edge than SD and more feature than SD.

Very nice site! Just one minor correction for MoneyPot, the house edge is actually 0 to 1%, as opposed to 1%.
-snip-

The house edge data isn't quite right for other sites either.
For Peerbet, the edge for dice is 1% but the edge for wheel is 3.125%.
For PocketDice, the edges are different for different bets but are all above 1.67%.
etc.

Thanks for the link to the stats page. I'll be switching to that now. I noticed, however, that you don't have the maximum profit listed on that page; it would be awesome if you did. Also, what is the difference between "Total Plays" and "Total Games"? Are any of them appropriate for the "bet count" field?

I've changed the edge to 0.11% and I'll try to keep it to the historical/average house edge. I think this is fair for now, but it may change in the future (see below).

I'm not quite sure what to do about sites with varying house edges yet. Should I go by the lowest, or the most common house edge, or the mean across all games, or should I just bite the bullet and change the codebase so that it can understand "varying house edges" (eg. "Edge: 1.67 - 3.125%")?

IMHO, it is better to list the range as it reflects the whole picture.
If you use the lowest one, you will have to mark moneypot's edge as 0% which will be very misleading.

But if the change in your code is going to be difficult, I think you could use "Varies" in the general information section and add a paragraph in your review for the house edge.

It's not too difficult. Just a bit inconvenient. I'll try to get to it some time today.

You are welcome.

And I like your newly added leaderboard page as well.

Thanks for the link to the stats page. I'll be switching to that now. I noticed, however, that you don't have the maximum profit listed on that page; it would be awesome if you did.

Sure, created an issue so I don't forget

Also, what is the difference between "Total Plays" and "Total Games"? Are any of them appropriate for the "bet count" field?

MP is round based, where each round is a called a "game". And people have a "play" on the game. So "Total Plays" exactly the bet count.

I think it makes sense to include a range, as it's the only way to get a real picture. For instance, sites like safedice.com allow you to play small for 0.5%, but any serious bet has to pay a lot more (which, I think is a great scheme). Or MP does allow you to make a bet with a 0% house edge, at the expense of being insanely vulnerable to p2p bonus sniping (which is why so few people ever make a bet like that)

Great site btw!

Can you add Coinichiwa to the list? Thanks

Thank you. I will definitely get around to adding support for variable house edges very soon. It's something I unfortunately overlooked when first designing everything.
