101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regret In Changing A Bet Have You Experienced on: September 22, 2019, 09:09:55 PM
Yes it happens to me several times in dice game but it's about going to add more bet and continue to use martingale, once I stopped topping up because I already lost a lot but I do have a feeling that the next roll could be in my favor, but unfortunately I did not follow myt feeling and just proceed to do I have to do the other way around.
I think the wrong choice like this often happens to many gamblers. because there are only 2 choices in gambling, you profit or lose. when you make the wrong
choice you lose the chance to win. don't regret it, because all of that is about luck. sometimes feeling helpful, sometimes make you lose

West ham vs Man United → Manchester United Wins
Crystal Palace vs Wolves → Crystal Palace Wins
Arsenal vs Aston Villa → Arsenal Wins
Chelsea vs Liverpool → Liverpool Wins

In accordance with my personal prediction. But there is one match that I doubt. Palace vs Wolves, if you see their ranking and previous matches. Of course Palace is superior to win in this match (Just a small doubt) the rest of all predictions in your opinion won, the same as what I predicted.
if you're not too sure, it's better not to choose that match to bet, because you know that the game has a high risk of losing. actually I'm not surprised if the Man Utd lose, they have a bad game in the recent game. instead I was very confident in Liverpool, and they finally won. And I won too Smiley
103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A cryptocurrency entirely dedicated to GAMBLING? on: September 22, 2019, 07:39:01 PM

i would like to see and use an altcoin entirely dedicated to gambling with maybe transfers and immediate credits and fixed value (stable coin)
Fixed coin may not bring the adrenaline which you can get from playing with bitcoin or other high volatile cryptos. Smiley
Actually fluctuation will not be too influential in gambling. fluctuation will not change 360 degree when you play gambling. so fluctuation won't make you lose. for example you played gambling that day with altcoin even though the fluctuations happen it won't hurt you, because you only play for a few hours only. And just price doesnt much change in just few hours, so gambling using altcoin or bitcoin is the same.
104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: September 21, 2019, 04:54:10 PM
You can call yourself as a professional gambler or whatever who make a living out of it successfully for years ... until the time where you lost everything because of gambling come.
I don't think people who go home with nothing but stories of the casino after losing everything can be called professionals!
You need to make bank to be considered a professional gambler and as far as I know such people that make it out with a good pay cheque at the end of their games do exist and I have seen and read about them ,year in year out.
But if you count such lucky ones, it turns out that this is a very small percentage of the total number of players. I am not one of them. Although sometimes luck is on my side.
if you believe gambling is about luck, then you shouldn't use gambling as your profession, I myself don't have special instruments to find out who are professional gamblers is, do they have a lot of experience or who have great luck? while a lot of experience doesn't really help you win in gambling. so professionals aren't very helpful at gambling #imo
105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of gamblers are rich or poor? on: September 21, 2019, 04:45:10 PM
I don't really understand statistics,
in the environment around me, only rich people play gambling, whereas poor people are only busy working to fulfill their daily needs,
IMO, the majority of gambling players are rich people because they have money and lots of time to play gambling.
Because many poor people are too fond of their money, they are very difficult to get money but just throw it away in gambling, it's a good choice for them. honestly gambling is for the rich, because it would be very unfortunate if you didn't have a lot of money but playing gambling, because the risk could come to anyone right ? but in reality gambling is play by anyone rich or poor. but most of them became poor, although some became rich.
106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: September 21, 2019, 04:08:44 PM
City ahead 3 - 0 and we are in 13th minutes only!

Please make only one more goal and let's not give Watford any chance to score however I doubt both thought 🤪

I also need Richarlison to score for Everton.

Edit:
4 - 0 in the 15th minutes! LOL

Silva D, Aguero S, Mahrez R, Silva B. - everyone is scoring! What is going on! Watford needs Mia Khalifa. Is she in the ground 🤣

Boring match because city dominates the match. City went berserk and proved that they are strong candidates for re-securing the Premier league champions. the odds are small for City to win but if you dare to take over goals bet, maybe many of you will get big profit.
107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: September 20, 2019, 02:27:59 PM
Real Madrid should worry about their future. I Don't think on this season Madrid will won a single trophy with this kind of performance. Zidane should change his tactics because current tactics Isn't working.Also some injuries causing great harms to the sqaud. PSG without Mbappe and Neymar scored 3 Against Real. Di Maria was superb on the pitch, scored a brace.
                
It seems that after losing Ronaldo, Real Madrid lost its role play. they don't have fangs when they compete with a big team. it's not about VAR or something.
they need to change their tactics, and of course add more good players. if they want to win the trophy then zidane needs more star players in their squad.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many gambling sites are you playing and do you use the same strategy on: September 20, 2019, 02:04:49 PM
I played to the 5 gambling sites right now and I use different startegy depends on my mood or what I think is really works.
But not all the time we need to rely to the tot he startegy that we have or that we use when we are playing gambling because sometimes is not appropriate or works.  Better to play without startegy because sometimes is really works too. Startegy is not necessary is only need to low chace to losses.
I don't know the difference when you play with one site or more. honestly I prefer to play with 1 site that makes me comfortable, because gambling for me is about fun right? if you play and have fun on 1 that site, that's enough. moreover, playing strategies on many sites don't really affect your chance to win.
109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Cock Fighting on: September 19, 2019, 11:55:29 AM
This gambling game is a fair betting which used breeding cock which is conditioned, and fight other breeders raced. It's really fun and unpredictable, but always provide every participants a chance to grab the luck at their best pick. Hopefully the online and live betting game will be more visible to cock lovers all over the world, and this is advantage when crypto will be used.
honestly I have never seen cock figting in online, how it works and whether it will be prone to manipulation ot not. Moreover, cock fighting are rarely shown on television or even none at all. if you want to gamble like this, just go in many villages, there is still a lot of cock fighting there, and socialize with the villagers, they are very friendly and ready to gamble with you.
110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: September 19, 2019, 11:39:01 AM
Chelsea vs Liverpool should be a great match. Both teams lost midweek although you could say both possibly didn’t deserve to lose. Chelsea missed a penalty which would have made it 1-1 & Liverpool conceded a penalty which shouldn’t have been given. I really don’t understand what is the point of VAR if it doesn’t change wrong decisions.

Any way, I think Chelsea vs Liverpool will be a close one, maybe a draw.
Honestly I will not go to draw to bet, because I think both will beat each other. Liverpool want to win to solidify its position as the top of the standings, and of course for the solace of the defeat at the champions league. Chelsea too, they will do a revenge mission after losing in Super Europe. I'm sure this match will end with a lot of goals. over 2.5 goals be a good bet
111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of gamblers are rich or poor? on: September 19, 2019, 11:06:48 AM
I think most of the gamblers are in the middle class life,
It’s considerable since the middle class can become richer in a span of time and they can become poor as well in just a glimpse
Quote
a lot of them have an ambition and trying to get rich in gambling, the rich people playing gambling for fast time not as source of income. That is only my  own view and opinion for those people playing  gambling. But of course we need to accept all gamblers are want to get win.
Well most rich people that gamblers do this for leisure and not totally to win,and you’re right on there that all of gamblers in the end expect winnings

Obviously.

No matter what your status is, as you gamble, your goal or aim is to win a good amount of profit.

Despite the fact that your goal is also to have fun, we are also hoping that we could get a profit out of the bets that we would be doing.


I think it's easy to distinguish between gamblers rich or poor, just if they are addicts they will end up in poverty, if they succeed in gambling they will certainly be rich. nothing is gray or middle. there will be poor or rich in gambling. and poverty can be so much more seeing, because gamblers mostly are addicts
112  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Cryptocurrencies are not harmful for economy on: September 16, 2019, 09:24:10 AM
There are some nations that are too blind to see the advantages of accepting Crypto currency investment like reducing the unemployment problem which is the most common problem of every nation. Once unemployment will be reduced it will increase the purchasing power of the people making their economy to become more strong and stable.
Yeah I agree that, crypto can provide other options for unemployment to get another option to get a job, although crypto is very positive effect for the people. but the government does not see that reason as a reason to legalize it, the government has certain internal reasons to bancrypto, because crypto have negative effects too in the government economy
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling habits that will cost you on: September 16, 2019, 08:14:57 AM
I would like to add a little related made by @OP

- When you win, don't bet bigger. stabilize the situation or play at a minimum. This is usually very good to do.

I don't know if this has been added or not, but it's really effective to do when you win. Don't add a bigger number with an even bigger winning goal. It will make you lose and you lose the amount that won before.
Agree that because when you win, many players will start to dare to play without rules and control because they are very confident with the win they get and
think that they can profit and win more. that is precisely what will bring them to great loss and that is what is called bad habits in gambling.
114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times have you gone against majority on: September 16, 2019, 08:09:07 AM
I did it a few times but most of the time, i’ll go with the majority because it is a little safer unlike when you bet in an underdog and risk you money. But sometimes going with majority becomes a little boring so it’s nice to go against them at time and it’s just amazing when a time will cone that you won because you go against the majority.

Sportsbetting is also quite the same as gambling where it has risk when you bet either with the majority or against them. It just a matter of good decision making and a bit of luck too.
If you like something high risk against the majority is very challenging you know, in gambling nothing is impossible. Even large teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, or even Man City could be derailed by a black horse club. especially against the majority have high odds of course trying it a few times is not a problem right?
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Choose Lottery Instead Of Anything Else? on: September 16, 2019, 07:58:37 AM
For me, lottery is not that very addictive and the grand prize is very huge if only one person got the lucky numbers.
I have got some friends who are very interested to try their luck by purchasing lottery tickets. They not only buy online lotteries but also offline lotteries too. Its really interesting to see their temptation during draw date. Hopefully they are slightly addicted in this matter or want to be millionaire with one lucky chance Cheesy.
 
I will also prefer lottery than the classic gambling because in casinos, the bigger you bet then the larger your winnings you could get but in lottery, even the small bets from average people has the same chance as everyone.
Still there is some differences between gambling and lottery. Specially on sports betting professional gamblers use previous data and research a lot before placing their bet which increase the chances of win undoubtedly. You can't do something like this for lottery IMO. Gambler depends on previous data, prediction or possibilities but winning lottery completely depends on luck. 
Its not about luck completely, because the chance of a win in lottery will be affected by the number of tickets you buy, it means that the amount of money you have will affect your chance of winning in the lottery. so the lottery isn't just about luck, the small players in the lottery will only donate prizes to big players, that's what I see. so I like to play other gambling games than play in lottery
116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Have An Exit Plan In Playing Gamble? on: September 15, 2019, 10:59:39 AM
According to your level on how hooked and how addicted you are, it's almost impossible to leave gambling because you will be leaving the excitement and all the feeling associated to gambling, not to mention the prize that you are going to win, if you already set up a winning method.

But honestly do you have an exit plan or the right time for you, that you are you going to leave gambling, not a week or a month but permanently, or you are going to stay and die gambling?
Permanently quit is difficult especially for addicts? I suggest not to stop permanently, but to play in some free time, not every day, but depending on your desires and free time, can be once a week, or 2 times a week. as long as gambling doesn't harm you, why do you stop it permanently?
117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: September 15, 2019, 09:50:45 AM
I bet yeah, Liverpool fans are currently the most happiest fans in earth.
I am in the moon! 5 win out of 5 match. 15 points for Liverpool and their only one competitor (so far) is losing a match by 3 - 1. Only 3 to 5 minutes left officially to seal the lose. LOL
If Liverpool and City play then betting over 2.5 goals is an easy win. because those 2 teams will almost certainly score more than 2 goals, those 2 teams will onfire every match and will fight fiercely this season. This win proves that gossip about Mane and salah fighting is just a small thing, and Klopp has handled it well, they both get back together and playing good.
118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will There Comes A Time That All Online Gambling Sites Are CryptoCurrency Based? on: September 15, 2019, 09:17:26 AM
That's likely going to happen, this fiat-based gambling sites will integrate cryptocurrency or they are going to lose more clients and of course, they want to cover more markets for their games, gambling is a multi-billion dollar industry just like porn and if Cryptocurrency dominated this market, there will be a lot of demands for Cryptocurrency.
Thats will definitely happen, if many gambling sites still use fiat as their currency, of course they will lose more and more players, because many player start to go with gambling sites that accept crypto as a gambling currency, because it is much safer and private for them. businesses like this will definitely use crypto as their currency.
119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto hodling as a form of gambling! on: September 14, 2019, 09:48:47 AM
If we think broadly of the word gambling, it could actually be used in so many things. Even life is a gamble somehow. Marriage is the same.
You have a point. If there's no assurance for the outcome then its gambling.

Holding crypto is like gambling as well because we dont know the future of our holdings.

Just like now all of my coins in my portfolio is slowly losing their value but I keep holding because I know the risk if you invest in crypto.
Yeah, there's no guarantee you will profit or be happy. then you do gambling. but if you do something that can affect the final result then it's not called gambling. we know that a lot of people are starting to adopt bitcoin, there is a guarantee that prices will definitely rise in the future, so I don't call that gambling.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling just for fun? on: September 14, 2019, 09:39:01 AM
There are some people gamble and lose. if you ask them why do you gamble? They will answer you "just for fun"
They know they are loser in long term and no strategy works, but continue to gamble for fun.
How can enjoy something that you know you will lose? Is losing money really enjoyable? Isn't there any other entertainment you can enjoy?
I think these people are still hopeful of winning back previous losses or they are addicted. Gambling cannot be just for fun. There are many free games too.
No one gambles absolutely for fun, at least there must be an idea of winning or making money through it at the back of your mind, which increases tension and I see no fun in that.
When the term gamble for fun is used, I think what is meant is one should not put ones entire hope in gambling, but should rather take it as a fun activity, where you test your prediction skills Grin, that way it'll reduce the negative effects losses would have on you.
The reason why we are in gambling is not just to have actually but to win prizes. It seems to be useless for me to be here, spending time and losing money without having any chance to take it back. It for sure everyone does and everyone wants to win that is why they'll keep coming back to lose again... Grin
It found to be difficult if we don't have luck in gambling, it is better to stop this (fun games) before it becomes worst.
I admit that the form fun of gambling is from the win you get. I am not hypocritical that when I was lose I will certainly be sad, fun that I get if I can profit from gambling. but I realize that there are gambling players who don't care about winning or losing. they play and spend their money, their time because the sensations they get when playing gambling makes them happy.
