as in the title. im fairly sure I found a +EV method for a particular dice site, if someone like dooglus would pm me to confirm for this I would consider selling this bit of info to a few people. just being +EV goes not guarantee massive profits because this is gambling after all, but it is +EV. this does not involve martingale whatsoever.

how is that possible Huh

that's insane
it's impossible to find a dice site that you can have +EV playing it
if this topic was for newbie then I will laugh a lot , but this is coming from a Hero Member Huh

damn I'm so curious to know what is this ( particular ) dice site
I won't buy it and I won't believe it unless I know the site

It's not impossible at all. DaDice for instance has a jackpot that pays out 20 million satoshis for a 1 satoshi bet, and hits about 1 in 4 million rolls. That's massively +EV (except that the jackpot isn't at all provably fair, and it is really easy for them to cheat).

subSTRATA, if you want to PM me the details I'd be happy to check it out and confirm or deny. If you did find a problem I hope you would offer it to the site itself for a reasonable price first.

Now that I understand better that your method is simply +EV and not necessarily a sure winning method I'm not as interested.

But +EV is really all you need. Play long enough, apply proper bankroll management and you will win.

(Assuming of course that it really *is* +EV).

There's always luck involved and so it's possible to have short term losses. Think of counting cards at blackjack for instance. It's possible to have long losing sessions, but the odds are in your favour if you do it right, and so you will eventually end up ahead.

Edit2: Lots of people are saying it's not possible to find a +EV strategy. I wouldn't be so sure. There can be all kinds of problems with the implementation of a dice game. PRC dice used to roll high numbers more often than low numbers due to a bug, and so it was possible to have a +EV game just by rolling 'hi' every time. I can imagine a game where your payout is rounded up to the nearest satoshi rather than down, such that a 60% bet ends up paying 2x for small bets. That would be +EV. And so on.

+EV means "positive expected value", and basically just means that the odds are in your favour rather than against you.
