🔔 In this video I show you how to use Microsoft Excel to calculate the house edge for a dice game. I go through combinatorics mathematics, as well as probability, returns, bet sizes, and finally ways to manipulate the game so the house always wins! 🔔
✅ Number of outcomes for win conditions calculated
✅ Probabilities for each outcome calculated
✅ Return on investment (winnings) for each outcome determined
✅ Overall house edge determined and explained
