Oracle SQL- Getting "Distinct" values within a "CASE" query

Question

I have the following query in ORACLE SQL:

Select
Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime),
Count(Case When Cs.Cs_Listing_Id Like '99999999%' Then (Cs.Player_Id) End) As Sp_Dau, 
Count(Case When Cs.Cs_Listing_Id Not Like '99999999%' Then (Cs.Player_Id) End) As Cs_Dau
From
Player_Chkin_Cs Cs
Where
Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime) >= To_Date('2012-Jan-01','yyyy-mon-dd')
Group By Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime)
Order By 1 ASC

I added "Distinct" just before "case" for each count. I just want to make sure that this only returns all of the distinct player_Ids in each case. Can some one confirm? Thank you! Here is the final query:

Select
Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime),
Count(Distinct Case When Cs.Cs_Listing_Id Like '99999999%' Then (Cs.Player_Id) End) As      Sp_Dau,
Count(Distinct Case When Cs.Cs_Listing_Id Not Like '99999999%' Then (Cs.Player_Id) End)     As Cs_Dau
From
Player_Chkin_Cs Cs
Where
Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime) >= To_Date('2012-Jan-01','yyyy-mon-dd')
Group By Trunc(Cs.Create_Dtime)
Order By 1 ASC;

A simple test case for you to prove count(distinct ... returns only distinct values:

11:34:09 HR@vm_xe> select department_id, count(*) from employees group by department_id order by 2 desc;      

DEPARTMENT_ID   COUNT(*)
