How CS GO dice sites work
The dice mechanic from roll to payout, and how skin deposits turn into balance.
Updated 2026-11-10
A CS GO dice site is a gambling platform where you pick a roll-over or roll-under target on a 0-100 number and win a multiplier set by your win chance. Crypto-native dice usually runs at a house edge of about 1%, and the five sites we rate range from about 1.0% to 5.0%, so always check the site you use. Provably fair dice lets you recompute every roll from seeds. Counter-Strike 2 replaced CS:GO in September 2023, so "CS GO dice sites" is now a legacy term for CS2 dice sites. You must be 18+ (21+ where required), laws vary by country, and Valve does not endorse third-party gambling sites.

The site generates a random number from 0.00 to 100.00 for each bet. With roll-under you win if the number is below your target, with roll-over you win if it is above. A dice site pays you a multiplier of your stake if you win and keeps the stake if you lose. Skins you deposit are converted into the site's balance at the site's own valuation. The full explanation of how dice sites work covers minimum bets and why dice is popular.
Your payout multiplier equals (100 - house edge) / win chance. A lower win chance gives a higher multiplier and more variance. The house edge is the share of every wager the site expects to keep over the long run.
| Win chance | At 1% edge | At 5% edge |
|---|---|---|
| 90% | 1.10x | 1.06x |
| 75% | 1.32x | 1.27x |
| 50% | 1.98x | 1.90x |
| 25% | 3.96x | 3.80x |
| 10% | 9.90x | 9.50x |
| 1% | 99.00x | 95.00x |
Expected loss per $10,000 wagered: $100 at a 1% edge, $500 at a 5% edge.
Derive the edge on any site with: edge = 100 - (displayed multiplier x win chance). Example: 1.86x at 53.01% gives 98.6, so about 1.4%. More in the house edge and multiplier guide.
Yes. Counter-Strike 2 replaced CS:GO in September 2023, and CS:GO skins carried over to CS2 inventories. Dice sites still say "CS GO" because that is the term many players search for. See CS GO vs CS2 dice sites for what changed.
Skin dice sites take CS2 items through a Steam trade offer. Crypto dice sites take coins and usually process deposits instantly.
| Attribute | Skin dice | Crypto dice |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit method | Steam trade offer with a trade URL and public inventory | Coin transfer to a deposit address |
| Value of your deposit | Site's own skin valuation, which can differ from the Steam Market price | Market price of the coin at deposit time |
| Speed and fees | Depends on trade offers and Steam trade holds | Typically instant deposits and lower fees (verify per site) |
| Effective edge | House edge plus any valuation markup | House edge, plus network fees |
| Cash out to skins | Possible on skin-first sites | Usually not; check the site |
Pick skin dice if your value sits in your Steam inventory and you accept valuation markup and trade holds. Pick crypto dice if you want fast, low-fee transfers and do not need skins back. Compare in detail in skin dice vs crypto dice.
Provably fair means you can check, after the fact, that a roll was not changed once you bet. It uses a server seed hash, your client seed and a nonce. The server seed is revealed after seed rotation.
Step-by-step with a worked example: verify a provably fair dice roll.
Legality depends on where you live. Online and skin gambling are restricted or banned in some countries and regions, and minimum ages are 18 or 21. Valve does not endorse third-party gambling sites; it sent cease-and-desist letters to some of them in 2016 (verify the source before relying on this). Gambling with skins can also break Steam rules in some cases, so check Steam's terms.
Licence claims need a check. The licences listed for the five operators are shown as published and are not independently confirmed by us; see how we treat licence information.
Read the legal and safety guide for licence checks and the Valve policy details.
18+ only (21+ where required). Gambling involves risk and can be addictive. Never stake more than you can afford to lose, and never gamble with money you need. CS2 skins have real-world value. Skin and online gambling are restricted or illegal in some countries and regions, and Valve does not endorse third-party gambling sites. Check your local laws before you play. CS2DICE is an independent comparison site with no commercial relationship with any listed company.

Enable the Steam Mobile Authenticator, make your inventory public, and copy your Steam trade URL.
Send a trade offer from your inventory to the site, or pay with crypto or card where offered. Skins are converted to balance at the site's own valuation, which can differ from the Steam Market price.
Choose a roll-over or roll-under target and a win chance, check the multiplier against the formula, and set limits before you start.
Request skins or crypto. Expect possible KYC checks and wagering conditions, and a Steam trade hold on skins that changes owner.
Make your inventory public, check the trade URL and confirm the offer in the Steam Mobile Authenticator.
A Steam trade hold may apply (up to about 7 days in some cases; verify on Steam Support). Wait for the hold to end.
The site may require KYC or completed wagering. Read its terms before depositing and complete verification early.

No betting strategy changes the house edge. Martingale, Paroli and other systems only change how your results are spread out. The edge is the cost of playing: wagering $10,000 at a 1% edge loses an expected $100, while at a 5% edge it loses an expected $500.
-$100
expected loss per $10,000 wagered
-$500

On 10 Nov 2026 the lowest edges were about 1.0% at CSGO500 (derived), Duelbits and Stake (both widely reported at 1%), followed by PLG.BET at about 1.4% (derived) and CSGORoll at about 5.0% (derived). Edge can change with game settings, so derive it yourself with the house edge formula.
It depends on your country and sometimes your region. Skin gambling and online gambling are restricted or illegal in some places, and age limits are 18+ or 21+. We cannot give legal advice. Read our legal and safety guide and check your local law before you play.
Yes. Provably fair checks show that a roll was not changed after your bet. They do not show that the site will pay you, keep your funds safe or hold a real licence. Use fairness proof together with licence evidence and withdrawal behaviour. See how to verify a roll.
Common causes are a Steam trade hold or trade protection (duration follows Steam rules, up to about 7 days in some cases; verify with Steam Support), identity (KYC) checks, and unfinished wagering requirements. Our deposit and withdrawal guide lists the fixes.
Compare house edge, fairness proof, licence evidence and withdrawal terms, treat licence claims as claims until checked, and set limits before you deposit. Our ratings are dated and show how each figure was obtained.
