Betting on Sports that I do not know is what Gambling is about. I like to bet with the odds being so far out there though when the matches end up hitting the selection that I picked then it becomes even more cool.

I would recommend people to try it at least once if they are a Gambler already.
You don't need to be a gambler to bet but that's okay. I agree with you that sometimes, you should do a YOLO bet. Don't be stupid like me, always yolo betting. I lost lots of balance like that.

The awesome thing about bitcoin is that you can gamble online using it. If you use it on dice, it's actually pretty easy, you just have to click, that's why I think it's one of the easiest ways to earn from it. Gambling in sports betting is also good because it provides better chances when betting with a higher multiplier.
10203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: February 17, 2017, 01:00:38 AM
I think it's a good thing to play with a strategy, even in gambling that can make a difference, but I do not consider it a good way to have great profitability. But if it is something good for you, you should seek to listen to what professionals and people with experience in gambling have to say.

I would say that it is not advisable to use a strategy or system of betting. It will just rob you of the chance to really profit from gambling. Unless you have an extremely large amount of money to use as a bankroll or unlimited money, then don't do it. Many have tried it already and all have miserably failed doing it.
In my honest opinion, a strategy is the best way to overcome the house edge against the casinos. It's a way to win, and why won't you do it, right? It depends also, there are some strategies that require less bankroll which is good. It's how you do it in order to win.

I don't agree with you. Why do you think that parents should be in prison with their children? Don't you know that it is impossible to be 100% sure that your baby is doing if you're not with him? The more that children do not work and they always need money.
As parents we will responsible in anything happen to our children even he/she doing crime in the street.Even you are not with your children you are responsible to it As parents you are the one who can discipline them and you can teach them a good things even bad things.
Someone should be responsible with the actions of the people. First, it should be the person themselves to take the responsibilities of their actions. If he/she is still a minor, then the parents should take the responsibilities as a parent. They should know what they do and how they groom their child.

Ilove spending my profits from good ma and items frim internet i always shopping it or exchangeing it into foat currency to use it on my personal purposes like paying my tuition fee or other things that can be done with it.
Seeing that, enjoying your easily earned money is great. It's entertainment and you need to entertain yourself and don't get so racked up with stress. Seeing that means, you are really good in work. Keep it up and be gret. Finish school!
10206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: February 16, 2017, 09:36:51 AM
When I have a decent sized win I normally take 50% of the profit and invest it into Alts that I think will make me a return in the long term. That is how I have built up a nice Altcoin portfolio when I win big, the rest I add towards my bankroll so that I can continue to keep betting even if I have a couple of bad days in a row like i have been having betting on the NBA.
Well, we're talking about a big win. It's not just your ordinary bankroll. Investing in some alt coins are considered a smart move because of the probable change in price. Be smart with what you do with your money. Bettign is a great way to easily earn money, if you always win or bet big.
10207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: February 16, 2017, 09:34:41 AM
For me it is better to gamble right now cause if you are only going to invest in some HYIP sites it will also become a scam site in just a short time,But if you are going to gamble your money then you could earn the profit the you desire it is up to you how would you earn it.
Mate, Who is suggests you to invest your money in HYIPs/Ponzi sites? It's clearly you will be ended got scammed. IMO, just invest your money in some trusted gambling sites, although the profit is not high as gamble, you will likely make profit in long term.
Gamble could make you lost all your money too.
If you've researched well enough on those sites, you would probably know who is scamming you or not. Don't get scammed like that and be smart on how you use your money. There are A lot of safe ways to invest to. Be happy with that and don't get too greedy. Don't lose your money by investing in one basket. Save to invest.
10208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: February 16, 2017, 09:31:57 AM
Not everyone lose in the long run i proved it my self we lose when we stop playing gambling once we lose why togive up if there still a chance to win? Be smart and don't be afraid as long as you have money to bet don't afraid to lose everything will be successful in the end :$

don't be afraid as long as you have money to bet ? so what if you only have a few money left . you will still continue your game ? . it appears that you are not thinking for the future needs or expenses, there are many things that you need to sustain more than this habit . people should not be optimistic with gambling although you have a lot of money to gamble on being successful in gamble is not guaranteed .
Maybe he set ome aside for entertainment purposes in order to make himself happy whether winning or not. It's about ones attitude in order to regain their losses. I have lost a big one but continually rebuilding my balance and finally, I've won it back. Success and it's fun to win.
10209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone ever stop gambling? but then gamble again? on: February 16, 2017, 09:29:17 AM
Anyone ever stop gambling? but then gamble again?

What are the reasons you come back to gamble?

Sometines, people tend to say to themselves that they are going to stop gambling only because they have loss a huge amount whether it is fiat or bitcoin . They are actually stopping this habit but only for a short time and coming back once they feel that the frustration they felt before were all gone . They are having a hard time to stop because it became a part of their daily life and they are still aiming for a big win from gambling .
You are right, as long as the urge to gamble is still there you cannot successfully quit gambling for good. I guess, we do experience that scenario most of the time in our life, it's like we regret that we know gambling because we lose our money but after few days have lapse, he we go again.
That is the continues activity in our life if we will not reflect on the possible outcome in the future because we won't notice that we are just wasting our money for nothing. Maybe, we are just waiting for the worst thing that would happen in our life before we stop,  and hope it's not too late to stop.
Maybe the gambler is just on a break and is going to try his luck on another day. A gambler would stay as a gambler unless some outside force has acted on it. If he is going to marry, he should've come back to his senses with his responsibilities and be a man.
10210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you bet on "Sports" games that you don't know? on: February 16, 2017, 09:25:39 AM
Betting with the sports games that we don't know is very dangerous, first, you don't know the stats of the competitors, second you don't know their forms or shapes. Third you waste money if you don't know the rule especially you bet on live betting.
Well, it's like playing dice when you don't know the stats or something, just basing on the win chance given to you, or the multiplier prepared by the bookie. It's hard to trust games that you don't know of because it would be hard to predict, but there are times where odds are broken. Breaking the system.
10211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: February 16, 2017, 09:20:40 AM
Was reading one of the article and cam across that only some percentage of individuals become rich and other who become rich is the casino itself. Not sure how much fact it could be.


Honestly speaking, many gamblers especially on real casino,they are rich that's why they afford to risk too much money just on gambling. That's why there are people rich on gambling because they are rich already before they enter on gambling hobby. I will be interested for the story of people who became poor because of gambling. In that sense, there will be an interesting lesson to learn so that people will be cautious before they enter gambling world
You won't find more stories about rich to poor because of gambling, common stories are poor getting poorer because of gambling. Don't think they risk much money because for sure they can afford it, rich people are smart gamblers and they have that liberty to spend big money in our eyes just to get entertain.
that's the real fact, people way too far dreaming about become rich through gambling. it won't happened in gambling unless a luck come to you everytime you play. rich people doesn't mean always smart in gambling it's really an erroneous thought. be realistic and gamble properly for entertaiinment purpose only.
Gamblnig has this effect on people when they think they can get very easy cash on it but it's not like that. It's hard to win against the house edge and you need to be extra careful. It's for entertainment so be careful with your emotions and be always in control.
10212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: February 16, 2017, 07:07:44 AM
Because that's the nature of gambling -and humans- it's addicting because you always have the desire to win more regardless of being in profit or loss. There is a physical explanation as well regarding brain hormone secretions etc... -google it if you want to know-
The aim of the gambling owners is go triggered people to keep playing players to their website enjoying the game even they are loosing not just to play but also to entertainment but if we won the joyful that brings to our life is bigger than had a gorlfriend mot only physical nut also in emotion ad well
Of course because we have different intention but I am sure they are operating a gambling site to make their business profitable and they are successful of doing it due to the fact that there are plenty of gamblers who loses. Our loses is their success and we have to accept that, they are operating with an advantage and they will use it to last in the business, while if we do not have the control, then probably we will not last long.
They get their profits from people who lose, that's how much they are losing. Of course you want people to lose if you own a gambling site or casino. You will get rich easily by doing that. Be smart with your money and dont get addicted
10213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: February 16, 2017, 07:00:53 AM
I'm usually stop betting if I reach 10% profit from initial deposit so my answer is not !
I'm ever experience if I keep betting , I'm loss more than I can afford

It's good that you are stopping when you got 10% already. But with what I do is I keep on gambling with my profit and instead of using my initial deposit. I prefer to use the winning I got instead because it seems to make me more comfortable to use my profit rather than using my deposit and when I lose, its okay.
Same as the above mate its good to play with profit rather than using the deposit. Because it gives us a relaxed state of mind, even losing won't affect our balance. On this basis we can be free of fear and make better prediction on the events that we make bets for the doubling purpose with ease.
I use my bankroll as a basis, when I double my bankroll, then I withdraw my original bankroll amount then play with my profit. There are a lot of things that can be done when gambling. It's all about self control, that's the beauty of it. Be happy with the profits, don't get greedy.
10214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone ever stop gambling? but then gamble again? on: February 16, 2017, 06:36:44 AM
Personally I gamble rarely and most of the time I lose that's why I'm not a big fan of gambling, but sometimes when I need some money badly the only thing comes to my mind is gambling because I have a small amount which is not enough for my need so I gamble it away either I double it and that is my goal or I lose it. so yes shame on me Cheesy.

Man, you are related to many gamblers here. I can relate myself to you and that's why I've been for the past years though I learned from it already. And with the same result that I'm getting whether I play occasionally or daily I still lose that is why I stop. But when I'm alone, I'm thinking all my lose and I regret that I've lost it all. In that time, it makes myself encourage to get all my loses so I gamble again.
Not good to still think of the past, it's given already, we gamble to win but we do not have the edge so we lose. The best thing you can do is to try to forget it and enjoy in the present. I hope you experience will give you a lessons that making money in gambling is not easy as we think, thus, to be able to appreciate it, we must be playing it for fun and enjoy while we can afford to spend money for gambling purposes.
You've got to move on somehow on your losses, better to tilt your head up high instead of down low. You're positivity would make you really rich if you always win and always stand your ground. Believe that you can win in order to win. Be careful in being too greedy, it could cost you your bankroll.
10215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: February 16, 2017, 06:29:03 AM
I have not really thought of it has shame has I have not done anything wrong or owe somebody some cash , so there is no reason for me to be shameful about gambling or being a punter.
Society doenst try to make you feel shameful?

Society is another factor, when you live in a place that's full of people that has a very bad way of thinking with gambling. That can affect you, your family and friends because we know that when a crowd shouts 'shame to you, gambler' that will make you feel that you don't belong to them and that's force shame.
If that is how they see it, then in the first place you would not be influence and will learn gambling. I don't know if there are really a community that hates gambling because for me it is just s pure game and entertainment. People can play if they want and they are not force to spend their hard earn money.

If you are living in a religious place or you are part of religious family then they hate gambling. Admit it or not there are places are like this and they are making fun for those people who are into gambling. Instead of helping those type of people, they are putting them down with their ego's and that's making them more shameful to gamble.
Maybe gambling is considered a sin that is why they have that reaction every time they caught someone gambling, if I live with that pace, maybe I would have not known gambling in the first place. Fortunately, I live in a country where we have democracy, we are free to do whatever we want and gambling is just considered as an entertainment and the government has no negative actions as long as they have their fair share.

Yes they are treating gambling as a sin and I don't know if you won't know gambling even you'll live there. Because the surroundings will still attract you to do so, especially if you have peers that are into gambling, you will be influenced as they do. But that is not going to be a shameful thing because you are in the crowd of gamblers.

Because indeed some religions claim that gambling is a sin. And it's not without reason, in gambling can cause a lot of harm besides can earn money. Especially when it's an addiction, people who are addicted to gambling can do a lot of harm, such as selling essential items at home, selling jewelry belo his wife, abandoned his wife and children, even to kill people. Because when the addicted person can be pkpP
pppunbridled. But for people who do not consider it a sin, pk
Loopoop pt all depends on how you treat yourself when gambling.
I don't know any religion that banned it, but getting addictied to something bad is probably a sin for everything and everyone and every religion. Everything can be harmful when it's too much, it would be really hard to overcome so before starting anything, be sure to commit to it and makesure it's legal
10216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you bet on "Sports" games that you don't know? on: February 16, 2017, 06:08:21 AM
I was wondering if you make bets on sports that you have no experience in?

lets say you have never watched boxing, or soccer even, would you still consider betting on these matches?
how will you do it then? random or will you use a tipster service?

I was thinking about getting into sports betting but the games are countless and i don't know which one to choose and i don't know anything about majority of sports.
Actually gambling is just like a game of luck where the win/loss depends upon the outcome of the game for which you made placed your bet . Usually in the high /low game gambling is just like not to understand for what thing  we got loss or win our bet .
So here we need to bet for those games whose outcomes are very clear .
Heein my opinion the sports game gambling is good for gambling because here we can understand easily .
But in the sports games thier are some games which are hard to understand .
The most likely games for me to not to understand are handicap betting and  soccer , I tried to understand many times but I got lost my ever bet for handicap , So here it is much better to leave gambling for those games which are totally non understandable .
It's always been like that in everything. The outcome of the game is the basis on who and what is going to be the case. It's fun to watch games if you already win something from it and it's winning. If you lose, you might just get discouraged. Be swell and enjoy. Try yolo bets also, you will never know.
10217  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: February 16, 2017, 05:35:05 AM
Explaining the overall procedure may be quite difficult to teach the early teen though there are many ways such as YOUTUBE which provides info about all the things GOOGLE another easy way but it would be easier if they are teached in their late teen stage so that they can go on through their own
Well teens dont really care about bitcoins and they will not search it until someone told them so. Teens nowadays just watch trailers, assignments project and other things they need to do so they learn something from their studies.
Though noone is introducing them to bitcoin, they will not know it, so until someone told them about bitcoin and how you can earn some from it, they will not understand especially know bitcoin.
Bitcoin nowadays is very profitable as an investment, however, the interest of the kids is not yet in investing as they are not in need of money and in case they need, they can simply ask from their parents. Honestly, bitcoin investment is only for mature audience, due to our needs and dream to have a good future, we risk with bitcoin and fortunately, we have been getting good results so far.
They wouldn't put any interest since they don't care money too much because they are still dependent on their parents when it comes to money that's why they don't bother at all but well there are some will surely got interested not on earning opportunity but it would be on its benefits.
in fact their parents are responsible for fulfilling their educational and other needs, they no need to earn money, while in some countries they are taking the responsibilities of their education. there they should put all their concentration on education and not on earning money.
I think, it's not always the point in earning, but it's learning what Bitcoin is. It is an innovation for for itself, a great way to transact with minimum amount spend. It could be sent from anywhere anytime that has internet connection and it's quite easy to learn.
10218  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: February 16, 2017, 05:26:09 AM
One precondition to play gambling in a smart way is to select the operator wisely, because there are some shady operators out there, like betcoin.ag, who will not honor the prizes you won or defraud you or embezzle your account balance! Like it already happened in the height of over US $300 million!

Choosing a casino is a good suggestion. But it seems that you are always targeting betcoin.ag Cheesy Oh well, you are right with it. Because with that case I stopped using betcoin too. I can also add that you should really be responsible when you gamble and don't let your emotion get you when you win small amount. Just focus on what you are doing.
yes he is ,looks like he want betcoin.ag use his service as 'game protector'  Tongue , however he has a point to always choose a trusted gambling site to play , how someone could called smart when they gamble on scam site ?

it is indeed not a technical way to gamble smartly but it is important.

Well yeah he has the point on choosing the operator or casino that you are going to gamble or else you will end up into frustration if you will have the same experience with betcoin. And the next thing you need to do upon choosing the casino, you need to be wise and precise when you will gamble, just gamble to the games you know.
It's your money after all, so you have the full freedom to decide on what site you want to play. Do not get tempted with the game alone, consider also what site are you placing, if it has a scammy history, you should not try to risk your money, besides, there are plenty of gambling sites here and for sure you will find what you are looking. It's really good to have fun especially if you are not afraid you won't get paid when you win.

Simplifying on what you had said, that's why choosing the operator or casino will do it all for you. And when it comes to scamming, I guess there are only few cases for this type of problems. We can consider also that while we are gambling, don't forget to have fun since it's your fund and you are the one who's responsible on it whether you lose or not.
I agree with the things that you have included, like choosing the casino your going to play on, or what site you are goin to play on if you're playing online. There are just some factors that you are goin to address like location, how clean and good the environment is, if the dealers are great, etc.
10219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: February 16, 2017, 05:12:51 AM
no, Trading job is different from gambling, for trading, we need to analyze the market a scientific way, what we need to do is find out information, then apply our minds to accurate value judgments. It's a job that requires high skills, it does not depend on your luck, so trading is not gambling, you are a trader, not a gambling man. Be confident about that, your job is done proud.


there is no scientific way to analize the market what they calls TA is bullshit it doesn't work for everyone and it work some times, those who created TA are deceiving noobs in thinking that there is actually a way to predict the market and make always a +ev choice, what they don't say is that they are actually part of the market itself, thet are the one that manipulate the market and therefore can make the market move where they want
You are misunderstanding, technical analysis gives you the chance of improving the possibility of being right on your prediction, that is it, there is no way to completely predict every single time what the market is going to do, because there are simply too many variables, but as longs as you make more right calls then you should be in profit.
Yeah , everyone here right  , Actually in the starting everyone thinking that it is just like gambling .
Herr reason is true or you can say reason to say trading as gambling is right because in trading it is hard to predict that what the price will be for the particular altcoin in the future  But opposite of this if you are working in yobit continuously for long time then you will comes to know about the price for. every  famouse altcoin slowly slowly and you will comes to know that what is the range of the price for particular altcoin .
So if you are experienced in trading than you can't consider trading as gambling .
There are many possible ways that you can analyze the market, whether it's on stocks or crypto currency trading. That way, you can earn the possible profit you can get when dealing with it and analyzing it to your advantage. The risk of it getting involved in that is like gambling, so it has risk, be careful and be smart
10220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: February 16, 2017, 04:52:49 AM
No one can't become rich from gambling, because gambling isn't a regular source of income and if you win big amount one time you try to gamble more to win more that result all your money to be lost.
That is right. I do gamble, and it started the day i was introduced in these forum and earning bitcoin.
Eversince i did not win and stop gambling my own money and savings. I was addicted to gambling that time but now I was just using my bitcoins from Faucets and use free rolls that they give.


I gamble from time to time and it's entertainment for me. I was elated when I learned about bitcoin and especially this forum because it helped me a lot to enjoy the small things in life. It's the little thing that counts. Always and you will be happy.
