I am pretty skeptical about that and I still don't think it's possible for a fast game like dice. But yeh, if you don't publish "how" then we cannot check it obviously (:

This one http://satoshinonce.com/ (don't know if this is still running fine) appears provably fair to an investor?

I don't think it is impossible, it will just be slow. We need one variable that is not determined by the server or the client and cannot be influenced by either but becomes known soon-after like a block hash?

let's say this problem is solved and investors can't be cheated by casino owners. it will not solve the hit n run option for a casino owner imo and this would mean that investors coins are always at risk

at the end the magic word will be trust (the casino owner)

If everyone is really going to trust the owners we could do away with the provably fair too. Grin

provably fair was invented for the player and imo the best invention in gambling business so why to do it away? please correct me if I am wrong
