I think we can lay tons of informations here but I don't think that all of them will change your mind. I mean, you are still the one responsible if you want to change your perspective or not.

However, having a negative view on people who just spends their time in gambling is not a crime. Personally, I feel bad for them, too. I think there's something more that they could do with their money, time, and life in general. But, what more can I do right? It's their life so it's their say. Just like everybody else, they may also have their reason for doing such.
Yes, that is indeed their life because they are in a gambling environment that will make gambling his lifestyle, but when you succeed in bringing him into another lifestyle to avoid gambling it is possible that this method can succeed in changing their minds. It's not easy, but when you care about them it is something that will be easy if you are sure to do it.

I haven't experience the real casino, I'm betting on online betting games and dice betting but I personally haven't tried to bet inside a real casino. I'm looking forward for the day I'll be able to go to inside a casino just for experience, Iyou know. I think it will be a memorable one.
I think it's the same as you are betting cards in your neighborhood and then there are many people who see, maybe only the sensations and procedures are the difference, I realize not all countries legalize this industry and for us who live in that country it will be difficult to find a legitimate casino place.
11863  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories and Possible Solutions on: May 19, 2019, 06:10:33 PM
Gambling addiction is a serious problem. It can ruin your life and take away everything from you,  money, property, career, etc. It's a difficult problem gamblers can face. Some people ends up bankrupt and with debt but still urges to gamble. Take note, no matter how hard other people helps you with gambling problem, the initiative must start with your self.
Yes, someone can be addicted to gambling because they are very ambitious to get a big profit in other words they are fiercely relying on gambling for their income, so they will be willing to do anything to be able to gamble every time. Indeed, there will be nothing to get rid of their addiction in gambling, the only person who can stop them from gambling is just himself with a strong determination to fight dependence on gambling.
11864  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: May 19, 2019, 05:23:23 PM
Tonight is a strong game in Serie A and I think there will be a lot of goals in this game.The motivated team is Inter who want to keep a place in the Champions League this year but Napoli in front of their fans is a great team.The best choice on this game would be with over goals.
I made it parlay for Napoli vs Inter and Juventus vs Atalanta and I only bet on BTTS, hopefully this will be an interesting match with many goals created.
11865  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Happy accidents on: May 19, 2019, 04:35:43 PM
Hmm, I haven't consider any major mistake so far when I'm gambling. I guess the worst thing I did is intentionally place a bet on the underdog team during a basketball match (just the local one). Its opponent is leading 1-0 to a best of 3 match but I still did such think because I have a strong feeling that they can tied up despite of being not a well known strong team. Fortunately, I won and able to brag on my friends at the same time Grin.

People always love the underdog and the potential prize you can win is very high Smiley  Imagine if you put money on Leicester City F.C. to win the Premier league a few years back.  They odds were 5000:1 for them to win the title.  You could of won $1million with only a $200 bet.
Maybe no one provides bets at the start of the season to choose who the winner is at the end of the season, even if there is but the underdog team will not be on the list. Anyway, betting on each match by choosing the underdog team will also get high odds and if you are lucky then it will also make you get happy accidents.
11866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How did today bullish trend affect gambling! on: May 18, 2019, 11:25:01 PM
There is no shortage of irresponsible people who gamble away their savings. Although these people constitute a minority, they tarnish the reputation of all the gamblers and the gambling industry as a whole. But responsible gamblers hold back on their spending when the exchange rate goes up. I have noticed this in 2013, and in 2017. When the prices increase, the turnover get reduced at major gambling sites.
Well to me I don't care if the market go up or not I gamble the amount I use to gamble in every other time, I am not too addicted to gambling and I have my targeted amount in my gambling scheduled which I will never exceed that amount.
That restriction or limits that you set with yourself is insane. We should gamblers know when to cut our losses and winnings and for that way to implement to us is restrict ourselves.
There is nothing crazy as long as he enjoys the game, if he does it because of compulsion maybe it will go crazy. I also don't care about market trends to gamble, because whenever that is and whether the price goes up or down, but when I want to play then that's when I will bet and I don't have any target for any achievement, because I only think if I'm lucky then I will get the best today by maximizing the strategy that I have.
11867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nobody wins in gambling anyway on: May 18, 2019, 10:33:19 PM
In gambling you have to know that is an algorithm leading the websites for example, you have chances to win or lose
If you are lucky to win and you stop at the right moment, you are smart

There is people (me), who gambling for fun, cryptos of sports in general, I only spend money that I have and will not use for anything else
Yes it depends on how they play and bet, because when you can maximize with the money or budget you have to spend in gambling and then you can win then it will be a good profit, but when they play with the money they have in the sense money that can lose and then they still get lost, so it's the same as no one wins in gambling even though you only consider it as entertainment to get fun.
11868  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading without losses? on: May 18, 2019, 09:56:49 PM
Trade with low valued coin with low volume and small spread that way your risk will be minimize but it's gonna be boring and takes times for your orders to be executed and the profit is will be not like that of the mainstream trading from the big exchange sites.
Trading on coins that have a low volume will be very risky and I have experienced a failure about this, there is no need to hesitate to trade on coins that have higher prices and large volumes, because it will be better for you compared to the trades you do or you mean that, it will have more potential to lose.
11869  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Why the market is falling and why not be afraid on: May 18, 2019, 07:21:31 PM
This isn't a price fall, these were just price fluctuations that take place between growth. Everytime the price falls there will be some growth further and at times this growth won't happen. By that moment we can experience the price to move within limited range for certain time period. This is form of correction and after the same there'll be sudden growth.
At that time it is something that makes prices go down because of the bear market and that is not a normal fluctuation or correction because the decline is very deep. Even so, it is true that it is a market cycle that should have happened after a very large increase and we need not be afraid of it, because of course the market has a great potential to recover and that is a reason many people are not afraid and remain be patient when the bear market happens.
11870  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bull or bull trap on: May 18, 2019, 05:21:21 PM
Indeed, in recent weeks the price of bitcoin is rising, but I also don't know it will later become a bull or bull trap, but now I see it is possible if this is a bull run.
I think the increase in the price of bitcoin is not like a trap, but the increase in the price of bitcoin is due to the influence of the good news that makes the demand for bitcoin prices soar.
So what's the good news that can increase the price of bitcoin this time? In fact, I only know about the bad news that happened in hacking attacks at Binance, after the news spread there was no major correction that occurred and precisely the price of bitcoin was able to soar. So not always good and bad news will affect the price movements in the cryptocurrency market and this time it is a very good bull run and I don't see any bull traps this time because the trend will be very good this year.
11871  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin has reached 8000$, then what? on: May 17, 2019, 10:49:51 PM
I do not think Bitcoin is going to go any more bear after this as we already know Bitcoin as a lot of wounds to heal before facing the next crisis. Let's hope Bitcoin does go up again. Maybe I am wrong and maybe e there a lot to explore in the market which is not informed to us but I do not see anything which is going to Trigger more rise.
So, with no trigger to increase you think bitcoin will no longer have the ability to increase higher? Bitcoin has been around so far and there has been a lot of growth and development happening in this industry, even though there are no triggers you mean, I'm sure bitcoin has the potential to continue to grow with the many adjustments that will occur for the payment system in this case. Bitcoin has indeed reached $8k and the value can still be higher and the correction that occurs is a common fluctuation.
11872  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Exchange coin on: May 17, 2019, 10:07:42 PM
the time of posting this thread i think BNB was on its low price... when you bought that time you already gain profit.. BNB is a good choice to invest
Price of BNB last year as of the post date was $14. And now it has increased nearly double but it wasn't a good year(2018). Look on how the slide that it went base on the charts, I don't hold BNB but it took a rough time to recover same with popular coins.

It went as low as $4 by the end of 2018 and still low early January. But it's all good and increased again and I think IEO played well and contributed that much with this gain.
I think that now we should observe the developments on the binance trading market after a hacker attack.  Many analysts tend to argue that the administration of the trading platform may be implicated in the loss of 7000 Bitcoin.  We must wait for the results of the investigation.
You can observe as you want, Binance's market is still good as before although it has went through with that incident. I'm already forgetting that incident because they were able to stand on themselves so fast unlike other exchanges that went with the same situation before.

That's all we can do now, to wait the outcome of that investigation. Actually I'm not interested if there's an inside job or not, what matters to me, they were able to deliver and guaranteed the refund and able to fix the damage that was done.
Yes, everyone can assume anything about the incident but when they continue to provide good services and guarantees, I am sure they will not lose their trust in this industry. They work well with full responsibility for what happened, so this coin still has good potential and I'm sure they are able to solve this problem without any bad things happening and will keep the situation well controlled.
11873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: May 17, 2019, 07:32:18 PM
Of course one is playing for the money in the end. If you don't want to win why you play in the first place?

We all want to win but it's different when you think of winning consistently as in that state, you need to be a serious gambler.
I am a gambler as well, I would call my activity playing for fun and of course I want to win but the reality will display which is I am losing most of the time.
Despite of that, I still have the fun especially if I'm gambling I will also experience winning though in the end I will still loss.

By gambling, we are not investing, we are spending, that's my principle in gambling.
A gambler who has the goal of looking for fun, they will not get pressure when they lose, which is why it is important to have a goal of having fun. So Expect to be a person who is always positive and thinks that gambling is entertainment. That will make ourselves able to live far more comfortably.
For me gambling is both a source of having fun and having profit as well, we should try to increase our knowledge in gambling as it sounds only fun taking but trust me it has so much profit it can make us rich faster than any other way of earning, be positive and gamble fairly it will be all profit for us we only need to focus on our goal and concentrate.

If you are too focused and increase concentration, then there is no more way to have fun in betting, if you think gambling is a way to have fun then the mindset that must be maintained is freedom and not making the gambling that you do a pressure when betting. With this mindset, you will enjoy every bet and make it an entertainment.
11874  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your game and why? on: May 17, 2019, 06:29:47 PM
I only play sports betting and nothing more. I bet mostly on Basketball and sometimes in Boxing.

I don't want to spend many time and money on gambling because I can't control myself when I spend many time gambling. Different gamblers here play on different games like poker, roulette etc. I don't play into any of them Cheesy. I just want to bet on Basketball games Cheesy.

I used to play dice a lot by now i don't have time to do so.
Now I find pleasure in sports betting (not live) because I gamble when I am relaxed on my couch and watch the game. Especially if you like the sport that you have gambled at it is the best way to spend your spare time by far.
Yes it is a betting method that will not take longer in gambling, different from betting at a casino that takes longer. Gambling in sports will indeed be more profitable imho, because when we can win bets with good profits then it will be very efficient in terms of time. So that is the reason I gamble in sports, but when I have no control, then I will spend more time in sports gambling, because to predict when there are many matches in several types of sports, it will take longer to get predictions the good one.
11875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can I spend the daily expense by playing gambling? on: May 17, 2019, 04:56:17 PM
Do you even have to ask this question?

The answer is obviously no, how can you risk the money you need for your daily expenses.
If you read the OP, the answer has been answered by the OP itself. Spending daily expenses by gambling is indeed impossible because gambling is not a place for you to get profits every day, but if you think gambling can help as an additional income, then I think that can still happen if indeed you are sure about luck that will always be there when you bet.
11876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about the gambling site's having a promotion? on: May 17, 2019, 02:55:22 PM
What do you guys think about the gambling site's promotion? Does the promotion of the site help you playing their games?

Can you clarify what kind of promotion you are referring here?

Promotions like banner advertising, signature, etc. helps if they hit the right target.
Other promotions like having tournaments or other competitions definitely increase the interest of playing.
Yes because there are so many types of promotions that can be done and all types of promotions have different levels to have a large effect on the growth of related gambling sites. But I feel that gambling sites are big because of the many of feedback and trust that has been built all the time, so actually having a promotion that continues to be active will build greater trust and of course it will be very good for the long term.
11877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The key reason for gambling on: May 17, 2019, 01:44:01 PM
The key to success in being able to play gambling is to be able to avoid an addiction, because when someone is addicted, he can be said to experience failure in playing gambling. So play gambling with fun and avoid addiction so we can get a fun and pressure free game.

Gambling games are fun and can relieve stress when used appropriately.
But what if the addiction produces good profits for them, because not all gambling addicts always end in bankruptcy. When they become addicts and have control in spending their money on gambling, I think they are successful gambling addicts. The main reason for gambling is something to get a pleasure with the win he will get.
11878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: May 16, 2019, 09:14:49 PM
Yup.  And I know I kid around about Klopp having a penchant for losing finals, but tbh, I hope he wins this one.  He deserves it more than any manager I can think of in Europe imo.  He's worked so hard rebuilding LFC back to the top...  A good example on how it should be done.  

And he's one of the managers that I've got a soft spot to.

I could very easily say the same about Spurs. Pochettino has arguably done even more for Spurs then Klopp for LFC. He managed the same result in CL without buying a single player in 2 years, and to top that up Spurs are very consistent in Premier league. Last 4 seasons they have finished 3rd twice, second once and 4th this season. He is probably the most underrated manager in the world.

That being said I would also prefer Liverpool lifting the trophy, mostly because of Klopp heavy metal football but I had to play devil's advocate for a bit.
The both coach were very good indeed, I was aware of that, but since Klopp came to LFC it was something different and this time was a great opportunity to get a CL trophy. This is the CL Final match but for some reason LFC is very attractive to win and I will personally say LFC is worthy of getting the CL trophy this season.
11879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Outside risk: similarities between gambling and trading? on: May 15, 2019, 05:57:30 PM
If you'd ask me both gambling and trading are risky but they only differ on the level of risky because gambling is riskier compared to trading. In gambling, you almost have no chance of winning but if your luck stuck in then it will be crazy profitable unlike trading your success rate are high and it will also kinda profitable. In order to handle the risk of trading, you must have possessed skills, knowledge and experience while in gambling you must have experience as well but the most important is an extreme amount of luck. Honestly, I used to do both trading and gambling but trading is not in my favor for now so I am unto casino games at Vegascasino to enjoy and waiting for some luck. Actually, this bitcoin casino is fun, a lot of bonuses and even amazing features.
How can gambling be more risky than trading, I don’t really get this explanation. In gambling you have a right to play any amount as little money as you can afford and even while depending on luck, it’s still fun to make wins and losses because you are happy at how luck could determine an outcome of a game but this is not the same as trading.

Because traders are aiming at   profit on an investment and they aim at a certain amount, they can be tempted to putt in more than they can afford with the expectation that it would bring profit which is not even guaranteed and the next thing we hear is stories, I don’t trade anyway but I have seen how traders behave and they can’t be compared to gamblers who laugh when playing.
Gambling is more risky if you can realize it, even though you can play as little money as possible in gambling but it is a money that can be lost. Different in trading, even though your prediction is wrong but you still have the opportunity to get the money back even though it is not an expected profit.
11880  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: May 15, 2019, 04:52:16 PM
It's officially Griezmann will went to Barcelona this season and i think Atletico will lost their other key player too because their captain Diego Godin will possibly went to Inter Milan however if Griezmann appears to Barcelona i think there is another players who became the victim of his appeared and i heard Barcelona will sold Coutinho because they were not satisfied with his performance and consider Coutinho over price
I think that is a right decision for Barcelona, seeing Coutinho not perform well at Barca every time I watch the match. Maybe that would be another consideration for Barca to release Coutinho, given the high cost of getting Coutinho at the time.
