Is there any point in betting in the casino? I don't know about slots since id have to know the programing to know the odds but roulette you'll lose coins over time. Is there something I'm missing or are the games there just to waste your coins and if you want to really buy something you should just get your daily amount and move on?

Well unless theres some trick to roulette to make it not the real game roulette always is bad to bet on as like betting on black theres a 18 out of 37 chance but only a 2 times payout.

You get that same kind of chance if you bet on Red too, silly http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Roulette is a game of chance, really. You either bet on a specific number, you can go with Even or Odd, you can bet on Red or Black, or (if this works the same way real Roulette works) you can bet on ranges as well, like "1~10", "11~20", "21~30", etc. Stuff like that.

Anyway, doubling your winnings can be pretty good though, especially if say..you bet 10 silver and win, you just got 20 now. That's pretty good. It's double more than what you had.

I can't wait to get to the casino and try this all out for myself http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Umm I know reds the same it was just an example of how in the long run youll lose money because you have slightly less then 50% chance of winning but only pays twice as much. I was more or less asking if maybe there was some trick to it because it seems kinda stupid the way the games are playing them will just make you lose coins in the long run not gain anything like a real casino but doesn't make much sense in a video game where if your wasteing time betting your odds should so youll gain alittle money so if you spent 3 hours at the casino you might actually end up with more then you had.

just dont let it go to your head though XD I found out the hard way. I played for two hours and earned 12 silver and then bet it all away in one round T_T

It's gambling. Nobody ever said it was going to be easy or happen all at once. It takes time. It does kind of work like a real casino. If someone walks into the casino with $150, it's going to take them a while to walk out with $1,000 unless they bet it all at $500, then double their winnings.

Regardless, it's about chance, low odds, and time. Just keep at it and you'll win big at some point http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

God, the roulette is screwing me big time. Every time I bet red, it's black - I even got green twice. I bet 1-12 and got 24-36 a bunch of times instead, so I finally switch over to 24-36 and it lands on 5. GAHHHH!!

Also, what is a "day" considered? I got a coin when I first logged on at 2 PM, I just talked to her again now (8 PM) and she gave me another.

well daily coins? how long will it take you to get gold coins? Atm, the highest reward is at 4 gold coins cost. ,and later , I m sure ST will add some new item that cost a lot more gold coins.

I had been betting 30 bronze on 13-24 and on 25-36 and 3 bronze on 0, and had a bad streak of 1-12. I was about to start complaining about none of the coin methods working for me since I was so frustrated because I only had 60 copper left, and I accidentally bet 30 bronze on 0 instead of 25-36... then I watched it slow down at 24 and almost LOL'd when it actually landed on 0 - I went from nothing to 10 silvers in an instant, that made my night. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
