Real Madrid vs Roma will be a good game to watch. I hope Roma will suffer an humiliating loss tonight at Santiago Bernabeu after making me lose a lot of money on Sunday by drawing to the last team on the rankings in the local championship. My bet will be Real Madrid team to score Over 2.5 goals.
Lol  Grin. Valencia vs Juventus, Ronaldo play against spanish team, i'm surprised Juventus have a nice odds here. I think it's because of away match, but i think Juventus still can manage to win.

Valencia's performance isn't good in La Liga so far. It will be difficult for them to win the match against Juventus. I think the most realistic target for Valencia in this match is to get one point even though they will play at home.
1282  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours a day are you spending on online gambling? on: September 19, 2018, 12:41:42 PM
I would say around 8-10 Hours per day:)

Are you sure you can play that long hours in front of your pc? You must have been really addicted to spend almost a third of your day playing online. I must admit that I have played around 8 hours in a land based casino but online? no, might just tired or bored so I will definitely quit.

Spending 8 to 10 hours a day regularly just to gamble will definitely interfere with our other activities that can have a negative impact. Anything that isn't the main resource to cover our needs shouldn't be carried out in a longer period of time especially on a regular basis.

I am of the opinion that every situation do present an opportunity. The current bear market present an opportunity for investors to invest in cryptocurrency. It actually gives opportunity to those who were unable to invest when the market price was high.

Yes, every condition whether bear or bull will give an opportunity. Holders will benefit when a bull happens and new investors will have a good starting point whenever the bear occur. These two possibilities are what I hope will be able to keep bitcoin alive for a long period of time.

Many gamblers also experience the same things, losing money, regret and then decide to stop gambling. But not all of them will succees in leaving gambling for granted. Many of them will come back again as soon as they forgot or can move on from their previous regrets. It's like a temporarily stop from gambling habits. So in general, many gamblers will still continue until they meet a condition where they no longer able to fulfil their habits anymore aka broke.

Everything comes to an end sooner or later, eternal there is nothing. I think ico too will end. But when it will I even not I can assume.

Yes, nothing will last forever. ICO will end someday and will be replaced by the new things. An increase in the number of fake projects has given a very bad name for the ICO, which of course can affect the existence of the ICO itself.
1286  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting on: September 18, 2018, 12:10:23 PM
yes and that is the reason that we think about sports gambling where we can use our previous experience, study and analysis. In sports gambling it is important that we must have good knowledge about the team and their players performance, their weak and strong points.
I think this has been said numerous times and people do it meticulously as well. Those who look at the big sharks and think sitting in the sidelines that they are getting lucky, it also their hard work on analysis of the game. Although luck is also important in sport betting. Because if you are having bad day your best bets might even become losses. Which match is fixed and which is not is also something not told everybody. Even the tipsters dont know it - they make calculated guesses.

But those guess are backed by their analysis data.
To some extent you are right with the analysis part in sports betting, but most especially in soccer, there are some few times analysis has failed me which makes me just believe that it is still a game of luck anyway.

Every future outcome is always going to be unpredictable and even if you end up right, you should just consider yourself lucky. I see those analyses as just some guidelines to at least be on what you think could be the right track, but outcomes of a game can change for so many reasons.

you have the point there mate. Although I don't bet on soccer games, I see that it is really hard to predict the game as it is really hard to get even one goal. Compared to basketball where if the team has many skilled shooters, defenders, and rebounders, you can most certainly tell that that team will going to have more chances of winning versus the other team.

Frankly, if only predicting what team will win a match, it'll be easy. But there are odds in sports betting that for sure will give us a small profit for predicting such market. Sports betting is the same as other types of gambling. It's hard to win especially in the long run.
1287  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you still invest in Crypto related projects, if you know it was a scam? on: September 17, 2018, 06:56:34 PM
A few years ago, we had the "Cloud mining" phenomenon and most people were warned that it was a Ponzi scheme, but they

still invested. A Ponzi scheme is a form of fraud in which a purported businessman lures investors and pays profits to earlier

investors using funds obtained from newer investors. Source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme

I still see some of those types of schemes around, so I was wondering if these schemes has changed their business model or

if people are knowingly investing in these schemes.  Huh

I know Ponzi schemes are legal in some countries, but most of these schemes are advertised globally, so they should not be

legal in countries where they are classified as being illegal.  Undecided

                                  Would you still invest in something, even if you know it is a scam?

I used to participate in cloud mining a couple years ago. I was a beginner at that time and had no experience when I was involved in a ponzi scheme like that. I was scammed once and after that I never touched the ponzi scheme anymore. So, if I know that a type of investment is fraudulent, I am very sure I will keep away from it!
1288  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Invest in ICO this time, yes or no? on: September 17, 2018, 03:55:52 PM
I assume that for the time being following the ICO does not promise profit, many tokens after listing the price are lower than the ICO, only a few ICOs that I followed were successful, therefore at this time I stopped temporarily until things improved

Based on what was happened in the past few months, ICO projects are no longer profitable and there are facts that some of them even deliberately scammed their investors. I think you have done the right thing to pause your investment activity in the ICO project.
1289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You cannot win in gambling on: September 17, 2018, 11:35:49 AM
I just had a really bad day gambling today with Roma losing a ticket for me and their odd was 1.20 and they were playing against the last place of Italian Serie A. I thought a bad day and move on and played another ticket this time I choose Brondby as they were playing at home against a team they had beaten almost always and the odd was 1.35. This was even worse as Brondby lost 2-4 at home to a team quoted from the bookies at 8.5

Now I am not an expert in gambling but this day was a really eye opener for me, you can never win in gambling. Imagine when you can't win in lotto , soccer betting or whatever you call it, you don't have a chance in slots.

I know how it feels! I experienced such similar bad betting day too. But, lets move on! We just unlucky by choosing the wrong games. And to be honest, odds, looks better team, etc don't always give us the expected result. Sometimes, big teams can play worsely too against the weaker's one and it happens frequently.

1291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: September 16, 2018, 06:42:03 PM

There are a lot of people saying that controlling yourself is important, that you should treat gambling as an entertainment but I think this is the most simple way you can do to stop your gambling games more faster.

Some of the gamblers don't check their remaining balances the reason they end up being not satisfied to their gambling games and will find a way to satisfy themselves maybe by borrowing money from other gamblers which is bad thing. If you are a gambler, you should be able to check or maintain your gambling balances checked to make yourself stop right away.

Borrowing money from someone else just to fill our gambling habits means we cannot control ourselves which is a bad practice that will lead us to immediate addiction. A good sign to know when to stop is when we feel that our emotions are controlling our game rather than our common sense.
1292  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Short term vs. Long term investments on: September 16, 2018, 05:40:18 PM
everyone's choices are different, you can adjust to the way you trade and your character, I myself prefer long-term trading rather than short-term, because I don't have much time, but if I have a lot of time I will choose short-term trading

For me, choosing a short term or long term will also be affected by market conditions. If my short-term trading doesn't meet the profit target I've planned, there is a possibility that I will hold it for a long period of time until my target is reached.
1293  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some unique advantages of online gambling ? on: September 16, 2018, 12:14:28 PM
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

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

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.
1294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crime Effect of Gambling - Your thoughts! on: September 16, 2018, 11:11:34 AM

For me personally, I believe immoral activities are certainly based on each individual and it does not have anything to do with gambling. Nevertheless, from some of the further research that I made, I got to understand that, these things mentioned are very much applicable in most casinos; drug dealings, prostitution and even some casinos where the owners are into some shady stuffs. Well, just want to get to know what you guys think about this. Do you think Casino is like a hiding place for perpetrators of crime or casino on its own, ushers in a huge level of immoral activities by default?

True, immoral activities will depend on each person's personality. But most immoral activities are caused by money. When someone is in a bad situation that needs money to overcome it, personality can be changed. Gambling is an activity that is very close to people who have financial problems and can trigger people to commit crime.
1295  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: are you now afraid to save bitcoin until December 2018 on: September 15, 2018, 06:59:35 PM
I saw a lot of news in the media about the price of bitcoin.
and they predict bitcoin can go to the month again in December 2018
and there are some media that say the price of bitcoin will go down and this news makes investors afraid to buy bitcoin.


do you believe the price of bitcoin will rise?
or believe the price of bitcoin will drop!

Good and bad news are part of the development of crypto currencies and I have read it many times. As a person who believes in the existence of bitcoin, of course I believe that bitcoin will last a long time and the price will definitely increase later.
1296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: September 15, 2018, 06:06:06 PM
It looks like Liverpool and Chelsea are unstoppable this season. Both teams have won their first 5 games and if their hot streaks continue, this year Premier League title race will be tight. Big games will be title deciders as the first 3 teams (Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City) hasn't dropped much points.

Yes, Chelsea and Liverpool showed their class in this season. And I think, this year's premier league will be very interesting to follow because the competition to be the best, will certainly be very tight. Meanwhile, MU still struggling to win the game against Watford. '83 Watford 1-2 MU.
1297  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: INVEST AND DON'T HAVE REGRETS !! on: September 15, 2018, 05:52:27 AM
when we decide to invest it means, we are ready for any consequences that might happen later and if something bad happens, we don't have to regrets and we need to search another way so we can still make a profit. so before we invest, we need to know everything about the program investments so we can know that every investment has the risk. besides that, don't put all of your money in one investment only, it is better to spread in many investments and if you decide to invest in cryptocurrency, you need to diversify in many coins so you can have a chance to make a profit from the investment.

Feeling regret for getting something  that beyond our expectation is normal. As long as we can immediately forget it and start to take wiser actions so that in the future we can minimize losses, it will be okey. Regret is a humane thing btw.
1298  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: September 14, 2018, 11:56:22 AM
As long as you are still sufficient for your family's needs, there is nothing wrong if you gamble. Enough first your family needs, and the rest you can fight at gambling, with that you will play without pressure and maybe luck will side with you.

I agree with you,  it is not wrong if you do not do it regularly.  Also if you are discipline to do it, you know your limit,  you do not gamble all your money. You make sure that you do it just fun but not for looking money to gain to.

We can consider it wrong when it results negatives in your life and you bet all your everything just to provide your gambling.

I agree, as long as we can keep this habit from having a negative impact on our lives, I feel gambling isn't that bad. And since gambling will involve emotions from time to time, it would be better if we didn't do it in a long time span.
1299  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What cryptocurrency would you engage to gamble in? on: September 13, 2018, 04:37:20 PM
Whatever the cryptocurrency finally that is in marketplace usage then we can have that coin to buy and sell coins.

Then people should try to use the coin which is best in rate that time to use for gamble wherever the site it is. Then I will not suggest gambling to anyone but to enjoy you can be use it.

Count transactions fees and confirmation time too since not all coins will always have the fast confirmation time which can arise frustration to gamblers.
1300  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Too many new Exchanges on: September 13, 2018, 03:47:47 PM
Recently i was working on a project related to Altcoin listing on different exchanges. Strange i found out too many new exchanges and people are trading well over there. Don't you guys think there should be limited number of exchanges and regulated ones? (Many new exchanges are nicer too and competitive but there is always a trust issue there specially for new investors). Your thoughts.

Investors should be wiser in addressing this. Even though for example their tokens are listed on new exchange sites, they should not necessarily give trust to the site. Further research is needed to minimize bad possibilities. Or they can wait for the token to be listed on a well known exchange. It will be better.
