1001  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Many Bets to Know How Good Enough You Are? on: November 26, 2023, 10:31:47 PM
As a gambler, how many bets do you think  you need to place to give you a true idea of how good you are? Anyone can hit 60% in the short term. But for example in betting I am hitting between 55-60% depending on the sport after around 450 - 500 bets. Assuming I want to go pro on betting, do you think that this is good enough or do I wait and see what my percentage is after 800 - 900 bets before making a decision?
The number of times for me is not that pretty much important n my opinion, I will be okay with winning a few number bets with huge profit than winning many times with less profit compared to how much I have spent gambling. In going pro you will be expecting to but 80% wins at your total bets, however, assuming you hit 89% wins margin of your total bets but didn't make so much money due to size of odds your strategy allows you to work with,would that still make you satisfied? Because I want to know if it's in the number of times you get a win you're interested in as a gambler or it's rather how much big amount you win not minding how many times of bet to be won.

Manchester United managed to get 3 points away from home with 3 goals. United managed to take the lead with Garnacho's great goal in the 3rd minute and managed to close the first half with this goal. In the second half they scored 2 more goals to make it 3-0 in total. Everton had plenty of chances but failed to convert. They had 24 shots, which was a disappointing result for Everton. It was the low point of the match for Everton that they couldn't score even though they had so many chances to score.
An impressive performance was put in by the red devils and they deserved this win. Maybe not many people expect that Manchester United can win easily in this match because we know that Everton sometimes makes things difficult when facing stronger teams. But Manchester United, which was not supported by many of its core players, actually played freely so that many goals were scored.

Garnacho scored the goal with an overhead kick and it should have been the Puskas goal of the year award. Everton failed to at least hold Manchester United to a draw and their defense was so chaotic that Manchester United could score goals from any side. Having lots of opportunities but not producing any goals at all, Everton is certainly very disappointed with their current performance.
For an inconsistent team as Manchester united that's currently struggling with form to win Everton in such a humiliating cleansheet win playing away it then mirrors how worsen Everton team is getting to even after returning from relegation we expected they should be putting up an impressive diehard performance but opposite is the case. Oh I loved that breathtaking goal scored by Garnacho, reminds of Wayne Rooney in those days of old glory Manchester united. Anyway, I won't take this upbeat performance by Manchester united so serious for they are also suffering the from inconsistent plague this season but I just wish they can keep this tempo for a long time

I had my reservations about this process when I first commented on this thread, but 24 hours later I will say I have been impressed by how much effort has been made. I will wait to ensure that each user can in fact convert BCD into any crypto of their choice and then withdraw that.


All the users have already withdrawn their funds from our platform and you can confirm the same with them. Smiley


Out of curiosity, do you have a way to check for other customer complaints outside the forum and is there an effort being made to fix those too?


We have a team checking cases on Askgamblers and casino.guru too and they're working hard to reach swift resolutions.
It's beautiful to know about this development as am impressed by you guys recent effort in keeping things mutual for all. We hope to hear more testimonies about this in coming days. This is just a part of a first step to rebuilding the BC.Game reputation and reclaiming the love and trust of the community as it were before all the hitches. I hope you guys completely put things right and get back to business. All the best!

Last update 12th OCT 2023

2. Don't be so greedy, settle down with low odds but not to low (read 3), no need to add a lot of games to increase the odds, make research about 1-2 games and settle down with that, place a bet and if the bet turn out into winning, do it all over again with the winnings, it will be higher chance to be a winner long term this way instead of example only place bet with example 10odd - 15odd or more in odds.
I would rather place a bet on a single game with 3 in odd with research then place a bet on four favorite's in a paralay without research.
This betting strategy is maintainable and  achievable by bettors with huge amount of bankroll. It reducing the risks of losing many times and increases winning chances extremely. To have the patience to hold to it and not get greedy in the middle of exercising the strategy is one challenge to deal with, because even those that have the money enough to take advantage of low odds normally be think it as a waste of time, and so they accumulate.

Quote

 In the end don't place a bet because of the odds, play it because of your own research.
Yeah own research can be considerable advise but there are odds that the sight of it can give you a clue about the possible outcome of the match in sportbetting. Example, there are odds which I have observed repeatedly that whenever they appear in a particular option in a game the results are always same. I have noticed it in over 1.5  for goals option and whenever I pick that odds it's always good result only that it's a very low odd and for that I had to usually accumulate games.

Actually, give away merchandise is quite good, but it's usually quite troublesome during shipping for winners who are in distant countries, so I don't really agree with giveaway merchandise

I have an experience of winning merchandise from a giveaway in facebook/twitter/instagram (I cant really remember it) long time ago. It was an official jersey of a football club + some other merchandises such as keychain, stickers, and a hat . I was surprised when I received it because I have to pay a tax which I think is too much. It is because the tax is counted from the shipping fee + the price of the merchandises. What I had to pay is something that I can use to buy 2 or more better t-shirt in my country Smiley The most surprising thing is that the shipping fee was more than the price of the merchandises. Although I did not pay it but it affects the tax that I had to pay. Of course it is all about preferences, maybe other countries are not charging too much for the tax but in my country can be said as an expensive one (at least for me).
The tax alone when you contemplate about it can  discourage you from been an interested party participating in the contest or any other from another casino, and am talking about myself as someone from a country I know custom charges are outrageous for imported goods.  Imagine paying a tax amount higher than what you are receiving, governmnt of some countries ain't helpful at all. Grin . What I opine imo is if it's achievable, these merchandise can be converted to cash equivalent of the merchandise price it will encourage more users in participating particular those that tax fee for receiving their prize is their element of discouragement to participate in contest like this.

Lots of good matches today... Man City vs Liverpool and Newcastle vs Chelsea are the most expected ones in my opinion... I think both teams will score here... It will probably be a good multi bet... Man City and Newcastle have Champions League games coming up, so it's not a given that they'll win...
As an away team Liverpool don't have the force to hold down Manchester City to a draw in this game,  City are already leading in the first half of the game with an early goal from Haaland at 27minutes making it his 50th goals in 48 appearances since he arrived the English premier league.  Something I love about Manchester City is their ability to convert chances to fruitful results and that's what they are using as a hedge against the Klopp defense that hasn't been able to clampdown Haaland from giving a lead.  Can Salah break this lead and put back the game to a stalemate draw in the second half? Let's see

Do you also find yourself spending more on you payday?, or you approach your expenses differently?
People that are salary eaeners will spend more immediately after they collect their salary. Many of them will have many things to buy in mind but not having money or because they are savings and not want to spend from it will let them wait for the next salary and if they collect the next salary they will spend more. But that does not mean they are not still spending wisely. If anyone collect salary and save from it and also have emergency fund and other important funds saved, that does not mean the person should not go for his needs after collecting another salary but also saving wisely. Although some people spending unwisely.
Salary earners are known for not earning enough monthly salary that can cater for their personal needs and family at large. It's not easy to be a salary earner especially at this hard economic time that prices of commodities keeps soaring up while the money value dwindle continually. I have many salary earners around me in my extended family, I understand they are always in debt as it gets to the middle of the month waiting to clear it after they have been paid salary at the end of the month. They take items on credit from business shop owners with the promise to pay when they receive salary and this is why they don't have enough left to use for investment after all debts has been paid and new items on demands for the new month.

Having investments and savings is of course a hope for everyone. However, if you look at the current conditions, having investment and savings is very difficult in the midst of an economy that is not improving. For those from the middle to lower classes, being able to have a job and earn a salary every month is already very grateful, because by having a job their daily needs will be met. And speaking of, most people shop at the beginning of the month, or when they have received their salary. They do this to prevent the money from being used for other things that are less useful. So for the first time after they received their wages, they had to go to the grocery store to buy rice and other basic necessities as supplies for their lives for the next few days until they received their salaries again.
salary earners life are just in repeated circles as 95% of their salary is swallowed up by foodstuffs and other household needs due to how not enough the salaries these are in a shaking economy that's hitting hard on life. For a salary to have a small cash left for investment after all he has to be thoroughly economical with his salary which means you've got to be cost effective and cut unnecessary spending particularly those that can be foregone, only with such frugality can a low salary earner have something left in salary to invest at least a 5% of his monthly salary.

I think the game is open to be won by either of Chelsea and Newcastle United. While Chelsea are knownn to be an inconsistent team and poor in front of goal; this season Newcastle United has also been inconsistent and injury ravaged which is enough reason to help gamblers understand its either any team wins or a draw ensues

Personally, i think Chelsea will win the tie, they are in good spirits and better form as well.
Chelsea are in the lofty spirit at the moment they have been able to impress their fans by the performance against Manchester City with a draw and Newcastle are not in a good form currently as they are facing injury problems in their team which has made the performance average to that of Chelsea who are now doing better than the start of the season.  Big teams haven't been able to defeat Chelsea this season except for smaller teams that have been messing them up, but Chelsea will be winning the match against Newcastle as they have a better injury free squad than Newcastle.

Something came out in my mind recently:
How would the price of Bitcoin change if there were no other cryptocurrency than Bitcoin?
Would Bitcoin develop faster without a competition?
If there's no bad we wouldn't know what's good and the value of that which is good. It is the availability of altcoins that has made bitcoin stand out as a better and reliable coin than them all. Have you asked if there were no alts what would you have used to explain why and what makes bitcoin the best. There wouldn't have been any comparison and it would have been boring.

I cherish the competition that exists among the cryptocurries, the competition has been what has driven bitcoin into the the hearts of the adopters, if there wasn't competition it would have been a boring crypto space and people would not have taken bitcoin so seriously as they do currently.

There are imaginations we should allow to die out in the realm of imagination without we attempting to give it a try because the result won't be a commendable one, which makes the question op is asking omw of such imaginations. Putting funds in a gambling account as a way of hodling it is like keeping fresh meats under the watch of a dog and expecting it never to take a bite. How's that possible!
Custodial wallet is risky but gambling account is two-way risky. For it's either the casino uses kyc requirements to frustrate you from been able to withdraw our money due to how big the amount or they can actually runaway with your money without an excuse.  What's so difficult in me creating an electrum wallet and stacking my coins in there to avoid complex stories.

The imagination was the cause of the gambler to withdrew the funds from the gambling,the gambler may consider the way of background check of the gambling sites.So they are free from the fear of losing the funds in the gambling sites and no need to worry to hold the funds in the gambling sites.Holding funds in the trusted gambling site may help the gamblers to save their transaction fee by the repeated deposits of the funds from the gambling sites for each game to the gambling sites.If the gambling site was the trusted one,you no need to worry about the deposits of funds in the gambling sites and holding the funds for the longer period compared to short period.
alright, lets agree the gambling site is a trusted one and has no issues existing for long term. Let's now beam our torch on the gambler who's holding the funds in his gambling account the likelihood is that he will be tempted to use a part of the funds to gamble, it usually start with small amount and from tampering with a small amount if he loses control of himself and forgot the purpose of holding the funds in his gambling account.  Not everyone can be able to resist the temptation that's why some people are scared of saving funds in gambling account.

In the future, AI will help us in various ways so that we can benefit from AI. AI is currently still in the development stage so that it can be even better and can reach a level where it can provide the results desired by humans. However, casinos will not just watch the development of AI but will prepare AI to fight AI too. And later, there will be competition between AI involving casinos and gamblers who want to win. But it looks like casinos will still make the most profits because that is their business. Meanwhile, many gamblers still experience loss because they are not yet able to use AI.
Am no ardent fan of AI still am gonna admit that AI is fast penetrating into different sectors of industries. In the development of AI into enhancing gambling predictions for both casino's and gambler's use, just as always, the casinos will have the hedge over the gamblers. How many gamblers will have the money to afford sophisticated and advanced AI tool but the casinos will be able to afford these devs to protect their business and grow profits.
AI  are machines that can only work with the information stored in it, however, gamblers should be prepared ahead learning on how to make use of these AI tools in addition to their human intelligence if they wanna stand a chance to get winnings in the near future of gambling.

If putting your bitcoins in a custodial wallet is already a risky thing to do, imagine doing that in your betting account, it's actually much more riskier since you might be tempted to spend that money in bets or games in your account compared to the custodial wallets where there's really no risk besides that it's not your coins since you don't have the key to the wallet.

So, the latest trend when it comes to crypto gambling is the new wave of Telegram Casinos . I'm not talking about those early bots where you could play simple blackjack games in a Telegram group; I'm referring to these new crypto casinos like TG Casino, Mega Dice, and Lucky Block. They've created tailor-made mobile casinos for the Telegram audience, allowing players to log in through their Telegram accounts and start playing instantly without the need for KYC.

What do you guys think about this new trend? Is it good or bad?
it's another  seamless way of crypto gambling just that the telegram form of it makes people to raise an eyebrow as telegram is notoriously known as a breeding ground of all sort of scamming and fraudulent activities.  And since a user won't be giving any further kyc aside his telegram details in opening an account with the casino and should the telegram account get hacked it's a direct access for the hacker to access funds in the telegram-casino account or am I wrong thinking in this direction?  There should be additional layer of security question for a user to access his account fully after login from his telegram, this way it will dismiss some security fears I thought of above.
1016  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed or risk on: November 23, 2023, 10:47:44 PM
Yes everyone wants to play for fun and when they earn for the first time then they thought appears in their mind that they are lucky and they will win always. But it is impossible that a gambler win all the time without losing any amount so those who initiate gambling as a fun will eventually become a permanent participant of gambling.

Yeah, a lot of people start out playing innocently and for fun but when they start down on the path of winning, they feel luckily enough to continue playing believing in themselves they would always win.
It’s def impossible to have a gambler win all the time and in this case of having played for a while and winning, that would motivate anyone to continue playing and by then, the fun isn’t there anymore as the player is just now playing to see how much he could win. This is when losses would start to happen and if you’re someone with no discipline on how he spends his money, that person would likely spend money trying to chase his losses.
when you haven't won before to experience the sweetness of  gambling money you won't you be be desperately conscious with that desire to quickly get another win again. The temptation to chase losses began when you have had a taste of how winning tastes like and within you you wanna sustain that winning streaks which is not possible, and that's how greed comes in that if you are not careful with how you conduct yourself you'll start playing without control believing that it's from excessive plays that another winning will be made. I'll say this, winning money in gambling should motivate us in enjoying the game instead of getting greedy at it, it distract us from the fun when we get greedy.

I’m a new member here, and I want to gamble on online casinos. I found some good trusted casinos. And I want to begin with a game with a low budget. First, I need your suggestions about the best games, slots. Live casino for a beginner.
Do you think Me starting gambling would effect me in my real life or make me addicted to gambling. What’s you suggestion and advices.
Gambling is not child's play because you beyond any doubt lose money thats why it's said to be an activity not meant for everyone.  As a beginner you should be conscious of your self control, make a limit in the percentage you will be able to use from your income and learn to stick to it from the start so you can get use to keeping to your own rules as you continue gambling. There are days that you will have streaks of losses, never chase the losses you can recover another day when luck is in your side. For a casino to make use of there are many reputable casinos in the forum, you can also check out the casino am promoting in my signature you'll love it.

Not only will you lose money but maybe what's worse is that if a minor is involved in gambling activities then it is very likely that they will lose their bright future, so this activity is really not recommended for minors who still have a great opportunity to achieve a beautiful future. Of course that's true, although everyone has the freedom to gamble except children but maybe this activity is only intended for people who have more ability in terms of controlling themselves and their emotions, especially for new beginners who just came, usually they come because of the opportunity to win and they want it.

Am not quite sure he is a minor, must be a full grown old man, and come of it who says a gambler can't have a bright future. Gambling places whether online or physical setting are a fun hunting ground which comes with a reward if you are lucky. People that lose their self to gambling which later aftects their future are those with lack of self control and with the mentality of becoming rich through gambling, all of which just make them  go crazily addictive. The opportunity to win huge amount of money in gambling is not by how much efforts and skills you exert in if you are not just lucky enough you never get it. It's something beginners should bear in mind.

[....]
Furthermore, there's a growing concern about BC.Game's lack of response to numerous threads on the forum. Many players have posted questions or issues, but BC.Game has not taken any action to address them. This lack of engagement adds to the frustration, as players feel ignored and left without solutions to their problems. It's essential for a gaming platform to actively participate in its community forum, providing timely responses to ensure a positive and supportive environment for its users. The silence on BC.Game's part regarding these threads raises questions about their commitment to resolving player concerns and maintaining a healthy player-community relationship.
I think they have pretty much given up on the forum because of the negative feedbacks they have received from members here.
I wouldn't say this is the end of them yet since they are still actively handling cases filed against them on third party sites like casino.guru and askgamblers.
Not speaking as an advocate though it's just a thought; which is I don't think they will give up on the forum just like that despite the negative feedbacks, maybe for the time being they are more down with the the third party site  issues as a matter of first priority after which they may then engage with all questions to their repute in the forum. When in fact from all indication it doesn't look like people have that patience to spare as their continued delayed silence is rather making worsening things by the day.
