I mean if you would have 50% chance of winning would any strategy make you win 100%? I always wondered since you cant win on normal casinos because the odds are against you but here in a perfectly fair dice would you be able to win ?

I think that there may be some good strategies( even against real casinos) but you always have to have the luck in your games

if though they state its fair, they have better odds on winning, theres that saying the house always wins.

Assuming sane parameters (i.e. a finite amount of money) no such strategy exists. If you're playing with a fair dice, every single roll gives you an expected value of 0, and there's simply no way to combine EV0 bets to become +EV nor -EV. The one thing you can control for, however, is variance. By making small bets, you can reduce it. By making a singe bet, you can maximize it.

Check out gamblingsitefinder.com for a decent list/rankings of crypto casinos. Note: I have no affiliation or interest in it, and don't even agree with all the rankings ... but it's the only uncorrupted review site I'm aware of.

No my friend. There is no way for you to be able to win 100% of time. That is why this is called gambling not investing. Normal casinos are not different from crypto casinos. They exist for one purpose, to earn money. Not to make people rich.

you would have to stop when youre at profit because 50 % chance means that even after 1000000 bets you will have almost the same amount of wins and losses so you would have to stop when you have more wins

Nearly all of the provably fair dice sites have a positive house edge (except PD PvP), and so you won't have 50% chance of doubling your balance.
And even in a 0% edge game, there is no way you can have a 100% chance of winning.

well this would depend, if the rolls arent recorded for the house to play against you, with server seed manipulation etc.

and none skipped nonce #`s.

No.
Basically there should always be 50% / 50% on each hi/lo game, no matter what was the previous number.
But you/me don't think like that. We hope that after a low will come a high. And if it didn't, next surely will be high. This is why Martingale fails.

Even without the edge , its hard to be certain that you will win. Any strategy will fail because of the highest betting limit for all sites.

No. players rely on making small bets and wait for the lose streak so that they can bet big on the next winning bet but they forget that odd remains the same. If they get lucky they think that their strategy is working but it's not the truth.

The house is prevent you from winning.

No house edge , everybody can win. Cool

Example : on the dice , if you can predict what number will come out than you will win 100 % Wink

So you need a very very pure luck to win 100%

most gambling sites are not fair. if they were anyone could make a lot of money. IV played dice with 97% chance of winning and still lost 5 times in a row. maybe ull get some luck with new sites.
