I lost all my SBD in Steemdice!!!

.. All 2.5 SBD of them. :) I just learned of this cool github page/app that lets you play a game of chance: https://pharesim.github.io/steemdice/

I'm sure there have been several postings about it but i just wanted to share my experience.

So there you can see my bankroll is wipedout.

How does it work?

Step 1.) login with your Private key :) i thought red flag! I checked the about page and i was convinced of the safety precautions and risks involved.

Step 2.) If you're a crazy unlucky gambler and you know yourself well enough, LOGOUT immediately

Step 3.) ok on the betting box, put in the desired amount and choose a percentage of winning. It shows you the potential payout at the bottom.

So what it does is it uses a formula to derive a completely random number from 1-99 (i think) based on the last block number of the steem chain. Whatever the result is, the app compares it with your chosen percentage. If you chose a higher number, you win. Of course a higher percentage of winning like 80-90% will yield like 5-8% of your bet. I tried betting .1SBD with 10% chance for a profit of 1SBD. That's when I started losing. I actually managed to double my money to 4SBD (sorry no pics)

I got some error messages while playing and it might be helpful for the dev:

Step 4.) Rinse, Repeat.

Your bankroll/wallet is updated realtime. You can choose to play with Steem or SBD.

Purely for fun, don't burn your money here. As the saying goes, "the house always wins"!
