I just finished a new page on a live dealer game called Dice. There is already another page called Dice on the WoO, so I'm differentiating this one by calling it "version 2."

As always, I welcome questions, comments, and especially corrections. In particular, do you think any of the screenshots of the lovely dealers are the same woman?

The question for the poll is would you play this game? Feel free to post on why.

This is an interesting casino to say the least.

"Let's make uninteresting gambling games with high house edges, but have attractive women operate the game." It still might be making them good money.

I might play the game only if it was a free app for my mobile and used play money (just like I play Yahtzee as time-filling entertainment.)

Other than the matching black dress, the women all look different.
I don't understand why there are sports on the TV in background. Perhaps another aspect of being in a real casino? The position of the TV looks like it would be very distracting.

Perhaps two "typos" (AutoCorrect?)
Second paragraph: "The game is a simple get of luck..." Should that be "The game is a simple game of luck..."?
Rule 9 & 10. "To win the roll must contact this chosen number..." Should that be "To win, the roll must contain this chosen number..."

Thanks for those corrections.

I think there are sports in the background because this casino is a tack-on for Internet sports books.

I thought the live (AFAICT) sports broadcast along with the clocks were to reassure the public that the action took place in real-time.

Hmmmm - - not for me. I need a lower house edge and a bit more cleavage.

Could be both. With this house edge, they hopefully don't need to rig the game.

Is there a jackpot bet to win a girl?

No, I wouldn't play it.

It does seem, for an on-line game, that they could be much more generous with their odds. For instance an even-money shot should really be giving something nearer 1.90 than 1.70. btw are you still allowed to give your expertise advice, since I should have thought you might have added a recommendation to avoid this game due to its house edge.

What is the mechanism for rolling the dice? Are they all placed in the cup by hand, shaken, then dumped down the "ramp" and arranged for the camera? Does the player get to see the entire process? Seems like there is ample opportunity for some switching if the casino needs certain combinations/totals to avoid a big hit. Who verifies that the game isn't gaffed?

The dealer puts the dice in the cup, shakes it, and throws the dice down the table. There is a camera directly over the end of the table to see what the roll was, although it is rather high up and hard to tell.

With the high house edges in this game, there is no reason to cheat.
