Generally They hold them in 2 wallets. First one is called "Hot wallet" which has 5-10% percent of all coins and this wallet used to send coins immediately. Second one is called "Cold wallet" (also called as cold storage) which has 90-95% percent of all coins and this wallet's located on a computer is generally offline. To secure most of funds from hackers, this is why it's not connected to internet.
If the funds in the hot wallet is decreased they send coins from cold to hot wallet using a flash drive to secure this cold wallet. (They create a tx on the offline computer and tx is broadcasted via flash drive).

I doubt they realy have a cold wallet. The hot wallet will be funded by the gamblers, they take 90-95% out of it by echanging it to dollars and leave the rest for the lucky few that do need a payout of their winnings.

Well explained this is very informative so our deposits are safe and secure as they are in cold wallets.

I think you are right not all sites have cold wallet. May be just few sites look after the interest of the investors and they store their funds in safe place.

Actually, it's the other way around, some new sites you'll see have no instant payments option, they require you to wait up-to 24 hours to send you your withdrawal. They do this because they don't keep any money in their hot wallets and they manually check each withdrawal and then send money from their cold wallet.

most gambling sites store their coins in their cold wallet and will only use it to top up the hot wallet used in instant payouts

This should clarify things a little:
Usually 90%+ of coins are stored safe in an offline cold wallet
The rest is in a hot wallet, that is actively receving deposits and paying out withdrawals.

It depends greatly on the casino, with Money Pot for instance I try keep between 15 and 30 BTC in the hot wallet at all times. Withdrawals deduct from the hot wallet, deposits increase it. When I notice the hot wallet getting low, I typically will do a quick sanity check that everything looks fine and deposit money from a warm wallet (which normally contains 0 to 50 BTC), or if required from cold storage (which contains the rest). If the hot wallet gets too big, I will spill it into the warm wallet or cold storage.

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.

Cryptocoins-dice.com is one of the rare dice-game to providing a proof-of-reserve (for all coin: BTC DOGE XMR XMG XRP). You'll find all the files related to the PoR on that thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=956800.0These are the Cold-wallets.
