In gambling we must be smart to regulate emotions so that we can always focus, it will be difficult to win if we gamble with passion and full of emotion. No matter how good our strategy in gambling, all that will lose to the name LUCK. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The only way to win in gambling is to be extremely lucky when you are playing dice or slots games, unless that gambler is a professional poker player, he would need to learn to control his emotion and focus in the game well as he will need to analyze all of his opponents strategy and execute the correct move according to the game play. Yeah prediction games needs luck to win. We don't know what would be the result before we hit the bet button. We only could do is to hit it in hope of winning. While games like poker really needs observation and skills and being predictable on a poker table is the worst thing you can do while playing skill based games. for the gambling games that need luck, we don't have a big chance to win. but for the gambling games that based on the skills and observation, the chances will bigger to win the games. and if you have skills in the poker, maybe you can win the money but you will have a bigger chance of loss in the dice or the games that based on the luck. so I think it depends on the gambling games that we play so we can have a chance to win.

My biggest lost in gambling is around $200, since in our country there's a lot of gambling anywhere you go and its really popular that time so I tried my luck there not knowing that I'm already losing money. I also loss in online gambling around $100 which makes me more broke that time, and I think I don't eat my food for 1 day because of that loses. Its hard to lose money especially when you work hard on it, but you have to move forward and keep telling yourself that gambling is really not good so stay away from it, and learn from all your mistakes.
you should learn from your losses and never do it again. you can play gambling but you need to remember that you still need money to buy food and I hope that in the future, you don't have to get the same experience as before. yes, we need to stay away from gambling and if we want to play gambling, don't play too long because we can risk a bigger money inside the game and the chance for us to get lost will bigger.

I think that might be because of the bad news that makes traders panic and after that makes them sell all of their assets at very cheap prices and make the prices at the exchange place fall instantly so that prices drop like this.
besides that, many traders especially new traders think that if the price is down then it will down too hard without any chance to increase. and if they still thinking like this, then soon, they will regret to make that decision because the bitcoin price will increase higher. they never learn that after the price down, it will get up again although today, it needs a very long time to increase higher and we can only waiting for the price to go up. but the market is down because of many things and I agree that the bad news can cause the price to go down.

I invested $85 into ethereum yesterday and after couple hours I lost $10 ,,,does it mean it's not the best time to invest yet and secondly I'll like to ask if that amount is good enough to invest in such a stable coin
no, you have just investment too early. but it doesnt mean that the amount you investment is not the right time, anytime in the market you can invest, as long as the price is low. and this time ethereum is really low. just hold your investment until it increase. I agree with you. he can invest in any amount and he can buy at any price. the problem is we don't know what will happen after we buy ethereum and we can only hold it for a while until it increases. with $85 in ethereum, he can have a good coin that can increase in anytime although today, the price is down very deep. it is not about the amount of money we use, but it is about what is the coin that we choose as the investment and how long we can hold the coin. so this time, he needs to wait for a while and don't panic if the price is down again because every people having the same experience.

Why is someone get addicted to gambling once he gamble ?
I think its because gambling gives comfort to some gamblers. As a gamer, I feel comfortable when I am playing games although I can't say that I have been addicted to games but almost ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . Its almost the same in gambling. If it gives comfort and entertainment to you then there are times that you cant stop it until such time that you are getting addicted unto it. gambling will always tempt people to play more and more without thinking about the loss of the money that they can make. and if they still playing gambling every time, slowly, they can become an addicting person in gambling and they will get the hard way to get out from the gambling itself. besides that, they will lose their money and makes them difficult to recover their money and they can get another loss in the next day. so you need to reduce your activity in the gambling and you need to think about how if that money you have, you save on your wallet or you can invest in the other thing so you can make a profit.

There is nothing wrong to convince people to enjoy gambling, of course they all know good and bad from the effects of gambling. Maybe from gambling someone can overcome problems quickly and of course from gambling someone will get a problem. Take the positive side of gambling and enjoy whatever the results are.
I totally agree with you, we are talking about adults, of course they know good or bad effects of gambling, so we can't say for it wrong. although it is not wrong, maybe we can give them a warning about what is the impact of playing gambling so they can think twice before they visit the gambling places. but it is difficult to solve their financial problem by playing gambling and win the money because they must have a luck so they can get that money. and it is better for them to always remember that playing gambling is just for fun and don't try to chase the winning money because it will be difficult for every people.

Some probably will not recover on this bear market after the dust recover , A couple will shine brighter than it is before , just a matter which one has a real value and revenue
yes, the weak coins will die in 2019, and the strong coins will stay exist in 2019. for the big coin which can give benefits to the user will have a bright future and will still live, and even they can get more support from other people. but in 2019, I think it will many another new altcoin that will release on the market, and they want to offer to the people to give support for their project, and as long as the project is good enough to provide the best to the people, the project will get their support.

Yes ofcourse, even if there are many people spreading fake news about crypto, they always keep saying that crypto is scam. They don't even know how it works, crypto is the future, future of payments or other services.
yes, they only want to buy the coin with the cheap price and this is why they keep telling other people that the price will go down and makes them lose a big money. but the truth is people still hold their coins because they still believe in crypto and they see that the crypto can rise back soon and they still want to try to recover they're lost in this year. besides that, people still make a buy for many coins because they see the price is not too high depending on the last year so this is their chance to buy as much amount as they can while they still have money in their balance.

from the poll result, I see that many of us want to see bitcoin to grow more than before. I agree with this and maybe this year is the best year for cryptocurrency to attract people to come and join with us because, in the last year, they see what is happening with bitcoin. although right now, the price of bitcoin is down too deep and makes people become disappointed to see the price, they still believe that bitcoin price can go up again in the long-term. I am curious about what will happen in the next year and I am sure that cryptocurrency especially bitcoin can increase higher than the price now and bitcoin will reach more people to join.

In my opinion, gambling online we can play with identity not the real one, so that the family or the closest person doesn't know that we are gamblers. But in my opinion, gambling on the casino and looking directly at our opponents is more challenging. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Agree. The biggest advantage yet of online gambling, is that you could play with a fake identity (in some games) instead of your real one. In some cases, you can even play at a gambling site without fulfilling the requirement of 18 years of age. And in others, we don't need to interact with humans at all, as everything is done by the blockchain (in the case of gambling games which operate on smart contracts). The benefits of blockchain-based gambling games are even better than traditional online gambling games, but their adoption will greatly depend and how successful they would be in the mainstream world. Sometimes, it's better to gamble online than doing so physically, as the chances of being duped, or tricked is very minimal. However, not everything is perfect, as online gambling games still have their flaws. Which it all comes down to preference whenever the gambler wants to play within an online gambling site or simply visit a local casino for a better experience. Nevertheless, I believe that online gambling has far more advantages than regular gambling, as most games are provably fair, transparent, and don't require ID at all. Just my opinion ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Online gambling provides an opportunity for those who for some reason cannot go to the real casino. And when combined with crypto currencies, online gambling experience can be safer than using fiat. Both are the best advantages that online gambling gives nowadays among the other advantages. Definately! I also think in that kind of way, online casino give you the opportunity to play safer in some reasons, it's like training field. Also, online casinos can give you free coins and spins without deposit. and this will attract a teenager to playing gambling because they can hide their ages to start the game. besides that, they can play without anyone knows so it will safe for them to play. without any control from their parents, the teenager can play gambling and spend their parent's money with using a credit card or debit card to buy the coin and they can get free coins that are available on that site.

People who are making a living from sports betting is good at bankroll management and consistency on his unit bet. It's not easy though make a living from gambling.
I cannot imagine, how the gambler can make a living from gambling as we know that for winning in the gambling games, it is too difficult but I believe that there is a person that can do this but he doesn't want to show his self. it is better if we can get a job and use the small money to playing gambling and we can have a good knowledge about the sport so we can have a good chance to win the games and get the money.

There is still some edge in sports gambling in the long run if you are good at analysing teams. You cannot expect to win 100% of the time and low odds in sports does not mean that the team will win for sure. I have witnessed where favourites with odds less than 1.10 failed to win so don't bet blindly on favourites.
that will happen if the weak team can give a little surprise in the game so they can win the game. sports gambling is different than other gambling games and I think we can have a bigger chance to win the game if we have a good analysis for the teams so we can choose the strong team with a good analysis. but all in all, we cannot always win in gambling because we know that we need a luck factor in every gambling game we played.

Everyday, we are seeing new crypto currency exchanges start working. So many platform has already opened. But Is that OK? I think volumes are seperating. How this effect prices?
I think it is OK and it is our opportunity to make more profit because we can add our balance to every exchange and it is for the exchanges itself because they can compete to give the best services to their customer. the price will always different from one exchange to the other exchange but sometimes, the price can increase higher because there is a big volume of the transaction and that is the other benefits for the traders. the exchange's business giving a big profit for the investor but they need to have a good service to make their customer satisfaction with their work.

people getting into cryptocurrency because they amaze with the news about cryptocurrency especially for what they see in the last year. they see that bitcoin can increase too high and they wonder and curious how it could happen. and right now, they still stay in the cryptocurrency because they want to see the crypto to come back like the last year so they can be like other people who can make a big profit. they know that this is not going to happen in one night and they know that they need to be patient for a while and they can wait until the price can increase.

I don't trust celebrities endorsing cryptocurrencies because the project only wants to make that celebrities fans come to the show and they (the fans) only want to see their idols. it's not good for that project because the celebrities don't know deeply about cryptocurrency and it will make that project hard to grow. maybe it will be good if they can make a conference with the other people from the cryptocurrency community so they can meet with the other and talk more about the project. but we cannot tell them that is not work, maybe it's part of their strategy to introduce their project to the public and they hope that this will work and they can attract many investors to come to their project.

I am not gambling in the race sports but one of my friends gamble in race sports and he told me that it's difficult to collect the information about each team or player if we don't know where we need to go. but the chance of winning is wide open because as long as we can collect valid information from many sources, we can win the bet and make a big money especially if we are sure with the prediction. but yes, he has a bad experience in the race sports because, at that time, he missed something that is important and makes he lost.
From the place I lived in, every horse day, you can buy horse racing tips program at a cheap price and you can do your own analysis based on that program. Even newspapers carry a tip program as well. There's even facebook group and other social media as well, so there's a lot of source. My problem though is the more tips and source I look at, the more I have a difficult time to pick my choice, so many variables and commentaries from different horse affionados that sometimes it better not to look and listen to them but just do your own analysis. with so many tipsters in out there, I am sure it will make you confuse to choose the right tips. but maybe you can search for a good review from the tipster so you can find who will you choose and you can place your bets. I am sure that there is a various comment from other people or other tipsters that can be a guide to make the analysis. but if you are not sure, maybe it is better to find other people which familiar with the horse racing so he can help you to choose.

I appreciate your decision on taking a break from gambling, and I glad that you are not playing gambling for three weeks since your last bets. it is a good lesson for every people who want to break for a while, and maybe we can follow his idea to replace our habit of playing gambling with another thing that can produce some good activity. I hope that you can get another good result for your life and you can break from gambling for a longer time, and you can make your life better.

maybe people need to check xpm, xbc, btcd, doge, xmr, ltc, and many other because this is the oldest coins in the cryptocurrency. and if you see what is going on in a few days ago, you can found that btcd, doge, can increase higher and gives the profit to traders. soon, the other oldest coin will do the same, and the trader will make another profit from the old coins. although right now, those old coins get down, I still believe that the coin can increase again and create a new position.
You're right but not completely right cause those coins you mentioned does gain pump and the pump is not genuine because it seems that some whales price manipulation is involve. However, I will wait for some weeks before rely on the pump in price by those coins. I don't mind if the coins were getting a pump and dump, but I believe that the old coins are still profitable. you can see on btcd and doge, although the price is up and down, it still increases. I know that the manipulation is involved, but I don't think that the manipulation can stay in every time because there will be any support from the dev and the community which want to make the price back to the higher price. this makes the old coins still profitable but some people don't want to see the old coins increase, so they dump the price back to the lower price.

So what do you think would happen if another Cryptocurrency (Example Monero / Ethereum etc) were to take Bitcoins spot as first in market cap?
Well if that will happen thier will be a new king on crypto but as we see so far that theres no other coin can surpass the value of bitcoin. Yep, expect bitcoin to drop in value, but as of now there is no strong coin that can defeat bitcoin on top. The current trend is still depend on the market situation of bitcoin. Maybe in the future, who knows right? Since this is a continuous growing market. and if there is another cryptocurrency took bitcoin place, I think it will change the cryptocurrency to a new situation which bitcoin will on the second place of the cryptocurrency. but personally, I don't think that it can happen as we know that bitcoin still lead the cryptocurrency and in the market, the altcoin still adjusts their price from bitcoin price. but we don't know what will happen in the future because cryptocurrency still new things among us and cryptocurrency have a bright future.

although we have a big chance to recover in the next month, it is difficult to expect a full recovery because every altcoin is on the lower ground and it needs more than just support from every community. but we still have the next year which we can hope that the recovery will slowly happen so the crypto will be back to the high price and help us to make a big profit in the future. and right now, the market still trying to recover although it's not too big, and if this continues, then I think we can start to sell the crypto while we can buy again if the price is down.
