I got "You are authorizing with unknown device. Check your email for further instructions."
When I tried to log into it.

You need access to that email address to gain access to the account.

Well done! Wink

This is not something new, but many other sites have implemented but not in gambling sites. It is always important for users not to use same passwords for gambling sites or any other sites and email accounts because many people usually do it for easy to remember.

no man, i got 18 losses, 1 winning. . . that is a joke

You got 5 losses, then 1 win, then 13 losses. Not 18 losses in a row. That's a big difference.

If you were at the casino and played roulette and red came out 13 times in a row you would be throwing a fit. Ive never seen any streak like that in a casino before, but I see it a lot in dice.... 

I don't think we can do that in a casino because they will have a better security system but you or we can though our computers at home and no one will stop. Just joking...

This kind of continuous losses is quite common in dice games so I don't like to play auto betting because manual means I can stop at any time.

I used to gamble for profit... then I realised I was not making a profit long term... so I quit, it is amazing the amount of money I've saved

It is a good decision you made to stop gambling if you can't control your feeling in gambling. Gambling is not to make a profit, but once in awhile, we can gamble just to have fun. If we want profit then we need to find some suitable investments to invest and get profits in the longer run.
1104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe that win in gambling is depending on your luck ? on: December 05, 2016, 11:15:54 PM
Indeed dice is not game of skills. There are other gambling games based on skill but dice is based on pure luck. Many people do like to experiment on their luck without even bothering of the consequences.

Hence the winnings of gambling is pure luck as far as dice is concerned.
Yes, dice is totally depending on luck, there is no requirement of our skill. Maybe in sports you have a little edge of your skill and experience but still luck also play important role there.
Overall winning gambling needs luck and without luck we may gamble for entertainment. So we need not to worry about consequences when we are not being lucky, still we have some reason to stick with it  Tongue.
I totally agree with you many games and all gambling games needing a luck for us to win and in fact that not all people are lucky so we must adjust ourselves on what gambling would a good percentage to win .

Most of gambling games are based on pure luck. However, there are games like poker, that aside from luck, you need a good skill in order to win. With regards to slot games, that is really purely out of luck because all you have to do is click on the button and wait whether you win or not.
But still there are some strategies in all games and for winning that we have to understand that and that is called as knowledge about these games and it is gained by experience in these games for some time so I think yes gambling is dependent on luck but not pure luck some experience is also needed to win these games.

Experience definitely will help you to win the games, but only with experience, you can't win the games. Along with that experience, you also need the luck to support you to win. Just think that if two same experience players are playing against each other and only one person can win. Then how he/she will win because both got same experience but who got lucky, they will win on that day.
1105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: December 05, 2016, 11:12:39 PM
There are lot of users who gamble under the age of 18. Various gambling websites have given access to users to take part in gambling without revealing identity. Also very few are highly successful not just because of studied strategies, but with the winning luck.

Due to bitcoin anonymity now everyone got a chance to play these gambling games without revealing their identity. People just need to know how to get free coins if they can't afford to buy it then they can start gambling for fun first but later on they can slowly addict these games which is not good.
1106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: December 05, 2016, 11:09:08 PM
When you are suggesting a gambler to go for it only aiming for fun, probably he will quit after some time because they do not accept the fact of gambling like gambling for fun. Maybe people are having alternate resources for having fun and entertainment what they need and they are coming into gambling only for making good profit that too in an easy way.
Yes, if people are gambling for fun then they will stick with very least bet amount or they will gamble only for free like with faucet money. Then the survival of gambling houses will be very challenging.
That is the reason some gamblers are making good profit and they are promoting themselves as the winner in gambling and making others to follow him to gamble for making profits.

Honestly if one gamble every day then can't win money in the longer period for sure. If one win today and play next time surely, they will lose back to the site. That winning is only temporary unless winner doesn't come back to gambling after the big win then it will be a different scenario. But such thing very rarely happens in gambling.
1107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: December 05, 2016, 11:05:35 PM
In today's match between Australia and New Zealand I'm expecting big totals as they are playing in Canberra where the ground is a lot smaller then all the other cricket grounds in Australia and so a lot of runs are normally scored at this ground. So a par score would have to be 300+ runs for which ever team bats first. I think Australia will win this 2nd ODI and clinch the series win in this match only because they have all the momentum plus they want to make up for their series loss to South Africa. This will be an entertaining game to watch with some big score hopefully being scored.
The team batting first could make a big score and make the chance as difficult as possible and since the ground is small you could see some big hitters from both sides could smash the bowlers to all parts of the ground.I am placing my bet on Australia since they are playing at home and New Zealand does not have a good middle order.

If grounds are small then usually chasing team can win if they play good cricket because they know how many runs per over they need so they can plan accordingly unless if pitch slows down after few overs, then it will be difficult. But after first match performance Australia looks quite confident now and home ground, so they got a better chance than NZ.

Directbet it's a scam.. They didn't pay me since June.

Are you sure directbet didn't pay you?

Can you post some proof to support your statement? I use the only directbet site for all my sports betting until now I didn't face such issues, and their support team is quite helpful in answering all queries quite fast.
1109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: December 05, 2016, 10:39:45 AM
of course I think that experience is important. Now you compare someone who is not familiar with poker gambling. then he tried it he might lose a lot of money. after that he will gain experience that will help him to gamble. I think the experience was expensive

Experience will surely help to reduce your losses but it will give you any assurance to win. If your playing for just fun then experience will really help to reduce losses and can play longer time to enjoy the games. But if you're aiming to make money from these games then luck is most important than experience.
1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: December 05, 2016, 10:36:32 AM
Hey guys i want to know what is your aim while gambling do you take it as way to get fun and excitement? Or your aiming to get more money and have a living for this thing?


My first intention is to get some profits, so I give it a shot and lost of course.
Well, I think that happens to many gambler at the first time, but I didn't plan to make a living from gambling.
I'm just playing and bet on my choices, although it's exciting and fun to do but with little capital and not go all in.

That's why I'm just playing for fun only, because most of the time if I think about profit in gambling opposite outcome is happening to me. And I guess I'm that a very lucky person and still not able to win some good amount in gambling. So if I win with my purpose of having some fun then that's great but if I lose, nothing is new, I know it will happen anyway.

Even if you are not thinking about profit you will only lose in at the end because there's high probability to lose when it comes to gambling. We should expect that the outcome will not be good as winning but at leastl you enjoyed the game that's enough.

Gambling is made to have that kind of fun, but we all took it wrongly and aimed to make money out it and at the end we don't enjoy the games and also end up losing money.  If you want to enjoy the games then you shouldn't worry much about the results then only it is possible.
1111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: December 05, 2016, 10:34:11 AM
Gamble in sports betting so you can research every team statistics and compare it to other that way you can determine who to bet so the chance of winning will be higher. Avoid roulette game as I don't have good experience to it stick to statistic games just to be safe .

That's one real smart way to go about gambling but the issue there is that there is no certainty in any game because its even hard to go against the odds provided by the gambling sites in the sense that you put yourself in a position where you believe they have more statistics to conclude the odds. Another issue is when the odds are not too different from each other which could be confusing to go with a side without beclouded with emotions.

Instead of wasting time on finding a smart way just play with some small fixed amount and enjoy the games. If one is lucky, then they will win otherwise think that you spent that money for fun activity. I never bet high amount in any single bet so I don't worry much on end results.
1112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you play Dice with Autobet? on: December 05, 2016, 10:32:10 AM
Sometimes I use this method when I play martiangle and playing low chance winning
When I bet with big amount, I'm usually bet manually since if I'm using auto bet feature, I will lose ( as my experience )

Everyone knows that when they use bot in the longer time, their bankroll going to empty still people want to try those bots. But I never use those bots but sometimes use auto bet option which sites provide only for a couple of minutes, and I will stop it. I prefer to play with manually because I can stop when I wanted.
1113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: In what gambling games are you good at? on: December 04, 2016, 09:30:27 AM
When the time am not quiting gambling am good at dice game everyday i double my bitcoin but. But i feel am getting addicted to it so am decided to stop. And am quiting now in gambling becuase its better than getting addicted in to it.

I'm bit surprised to see someone was doubling money in dice game not sometimes but every day. Anyway you already made a decision to come out of gambling for good reason even though you were making a good profit every day which I don't think real. In dice game you play every day then surely site is good win not players based on my knowledge and experience.
With that kind of statement, maybe you have to doubt because it ain't happening in gambling. We might win but not everyday because it should be temporary and gamblers loses in the long run. That's the only reality I know because it is base on my experience and majority of gamblers here.
thats clear statement mate because most of the players lose in their everyday activity playing dice if i have the same talent and capability to double my btc everyday i will take advantage and allow myself to get rich first but for sure it won't happen as i see the difficulty playing luck base games and lose my btc.

In gambling there are certain games you simply cannot be good at. Dice is one of them. It is pure chance and doubling your money every day is not possible in the long run.

It has either been every day for the past 2 days, or it is simply not true. Or he is doubling at dice and losing at blackjack. End result of doubling everyday with chance based games is just not possible for very long.

First of all, if anyone thinking of leaving gambling means they might have lost a lot of money or can't control their emotions while playing. If a person winning every day and still thinking not to gamble again means something is not correct. I strongly believe that he might have lost lot of money in dice game.
1114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: if you watch a sports game that you bet? on: December 04, 2016, 09:26:41 AM
I only bet on games that I am intersted in seeing in the first place, so naturally I watch the games that I bet on.

I can understand some people not watching, especially with bigger amounts. It can become quite tense and frustrating if it is a close call towards the end.

If it is a close match of your favourite team then some people can't take that thrill pressure whether they bet on that match or not. But usually I like to watch those neck to neck kind of games and if placed bet on those matches even very interesting for me. Most of the times I will watch the games which I placed bets.
1115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling Investments on: December 04, 2016, 09:15:08 AM
Crypto-Games returns have been so smooth, they are definitely doing something very right!

That's called good bankroll management.

Their max win amount to bankroll size ratio appears to be the lowest among all the casinos in the review. This doesn't allow both significant drawdowns in the bankroll and massive losses by the gamblers, so we might not expect whales losing thousands of bitcoins at a time as it happened with BetKing. But this strategy seems to be working in the long term, and it is working perfect at that!

But now it doesn't look good bankroll management because past earning records will not give any guaranty of same earnings in future as well. So now left with only two sites and if big whale wins in crypto-games then his investment may down a lot and all his profit may be eaten up very fast. Now again need to find another one or two sites investor need to add back any of the old sites.
1116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: December 04, 2016, 09:06:02 AM
Austrailia vs. New Zealand 1st ODI. The home team have the advantage to win this match, They are very strong in Home pitch, But away team also played well in the last series. So this match is going to be very interested. My choice is New Zealand because the odds looks very good NZ @3.05.


yes the odds against NewZealand are pretty tempting and i am certain this would be a high scoring match and the toss will be a factor here as both teams have a confusion as to what a good total in this pitch would be and the team batting second has the highest chance to win the match in this ground.

Currently, I feel that NZ may give a surprise to the home team today. As you said, maybe we can wait for the toss to make a final call to bet on this match. Both are good teams to play on fast tracks so we can surely expect to match today to watch.

Australia are batting first. They weathered the first few overs of the new ball and seemed to be gathering momentum. The loss of Warner will slow them down though. At 47/2 after 10 overs, I would say neither team has a sizable advantage.
Because of the impressive odds I am going for NZ to win this match and since warner is out very early I don't think Aussies can manage to put a total greater than 300 . It will be a difficult task for NZ to win this match but it will be an exciting chase Smiley

Even if Australia don't make 300+ runs a score of 280+ might be enough to hold New Zealand out because the pitch does seem to slow up as the day goes on and New Zealand will be batting at night where the pitch normally slows up a lot at the SCG so it could become tough batting for New Zealand so I think 280 runs might be enough for Australia if they can reach that total. Right now it's still very early on in the match and Australia could very well make 300+ or be bowled out for a small total.

Australia won the toss and elected to bat first and already last first four wickets for 114 runs and already 24.3 overs finished. Means half of the innings finish they also last all top orders and now need good partnership for another few overs then they can go for bigger hits in last few overs but if they lose couple more wickets in next 10 overs then I don't think they can reach 250 marks as well.

Australia have made a strong score of 324/8. It will definitely be difficult for NZ to win this match.
The bookmakers were right after all to offer high odds for New Zealand.  Wink

It can't believe that Australia reached to 324 runs. At one stage I thought they might not even reach 300 marks. New Zealand requires another 233 runs with eight wickets, and 32.0 overs are remaining. NZ star batsman Guptill still playing at 56 runs in 58 balls. So anything can happen in this match as long as Guptill is still around. Very interesting match.

i dont know if that would be the case right here, but the bitcoin network is awful right now.
this whole week with 40k+ unconfirmed transactions.

https://blockchain.info/pt/unconfirmed-transactions

If this happens on a regular basis then many new people may not come back to bitcoins if their first transaction stuck in this delay. They may not get a confidence in bitcoins and may not come back to bitcoin. Hope these things will sort out soon.
1118  Economy / Gambling / Re: fortunejack site is going to close? on: December 04, 2016, 05:49:33 AM
That's not correct. It's the sending parties responsibility to ensure that enough transaction are getting confirmed in a reasonable amount of time. If the transaction fees are too high, they should increase the fees they charge players in order to support it. If a transaction gets stuck, they can do what I do and repriortize it by pulling from the change address (CPFP).

FWIW, these issues will exist even with segwit and something all bitcoin services and wallets need to start handling.

Yeah, I think a large percentage of the sites out there just include static fees based on size. Ideally, they should be accounting for network congestion and adjusting to help ensure quick confirmation times. No one is happy when they have to wait sometimes over 24 hours for a confirmation. Of course these higher fees would likely need to be passed on to the players or perhaps give them the choice of paying extra for fast confirmation or paying a lower fee for a longer confirmation time.

But fortunejack don't take any extra fee from the players to send money to their accounts because they are absorbing it. But now if many players start complaining then they may consider passing on these extra fees to players to make things faster. Until now all my payments are quite OK from fortunejack.
1119  Economy / Gambling / Re: Where Can I invest in Bitcoin Casino? on: December 03, 2016, 11:29:31 PM
I have seen this option on some sites but I won't recommend it, mainly because it's highly risky. You never know what will happen in that website or casino. it's better to invest in other things in small amounts.  Smiley

Any investment you take will have some risks. If you don't want to take risks, then you can't grow your money. At all casinos or gambling houses are going to close because most trusted sites know how to make a profit by running honest casinos then cheating players and investors. You can find few good trusted sites in this forum to consider for investing.

I think as of now moneypot don't have any sports betting apps in the list. I don't know whether their system allows for sports sites app to use their bankroll. If allowed then it is good opportunity for someone come up with this feature to attract many people to use their site.
