  Following is a link to a version of your code
  rewritten to run using python3  

http://csphx.net/fire_dice.py.txt

  The only significant differences 
  between python2 and python3
  in your code are  

python2 . python3

 print ... print( )

 raw_input( ) ... input( )

  These changes are the key
  to making the program loop
  as desired  

  All other changes are mostly cosmetic

What are the rules of the game?

When you call a function from within that function you are using recursion.
This is not what recursion is intended for. If you play long enough you
will run out of memory.

The proper way to handle this is to put the entire body of game() in a
while loop.

Since the values of e and f are not changed in the loop he will continue to
get the same thing.

Python Dice Game/Need help with my script/looping!

[Constantin Sorin]

Hello,I recently started to make a dice game in python.Everything was nice and 
beautiful,until now.My problem is that when I try to play and I win or lost or 
it's equal next time it will continue only with that.
Exemple:
Enter name >> Sorin
Money = 2
Bet >> 2
You won!
Money 4
Bet >> 2
You won!
and it loops like this :/

Here is the code:

import time
import os
import random
os = os.system
os("clear")

print "What is your name?"
name = raw_input(">>")

def lost():
print "Yoy lost the game!Wanna Play again?Y/N"
ch = raw_input(">>")
if ch == "Y":
game()
elif ch == "N":
exit()



def game():
os("clear")
a = random.randint(1,6)
b = random.randint(1,6)
c = random.randint(1,6)
d = random.randint(1,6)
e = a + b
f = c + d
money = 2
while money > 0:
print "Welcome to FireDice %s!" %name
print "Your money: %s$" %money
print "How much do you bet?"
bet = input(">>")
if e > f:
print "you won!"
money = money + bet
elif e < f:
print "you lost"
money = money - bet
else:
print "?"

print money
lost()  

game()
