I don't know why more people does not mention their 0 confirmation policy for bitcoin. I don't know any other site that is letting players bet in the same second they send tx before it even confirms once. Great thing with no actual risk attached (you can't withdraw winnings if your tx does not have 3 confirmations).

It is hands down the best feature for me, very easy to implement and yet only Sportsbet has it.

It's a great feature, and more gambling sites should implement it as soon as possible. By accepting a zero-conf transaction you show your customers that you trust them. And it's a nice feeling when the people you are dealing with trust you. You want to do business with them again and again.

As you have rightly said, they are covered against losing money. And that's good, because not all people can be trusted. But for honest people it's a good bonus: to not wait for a confirmation.

They don't forget to care about us gamblers too. Remember their competitions like "Guess the bet number", "Guess the slot" and many of Roobet Art Contests.

Also, just after reading your post I decided to try my luck on Roo Bonanza and I hit this nice 16.55x multiplier from the 5th try!





Kudos for cooperating with Pragmatic Play, Roobet! They create amazing slots for you. Smiley
Nice luck mate , congrats to that big multiplier though hoping that you put bigger bet
so you can take much from that wins so you might be taking a food for the table  Grin Grin
the last time that I win 2 digits in Bonanza is last december in which I got to win x28 with 4 dollars bet .

Wow, man, that's something! Congrats, @kotajikikox!

I do win over $100 on slots soemtimes, but I need to hit a 500x+ multiplier for that, because I never bet more than $0.20 at once.

Roobet is an honest site and they will not make you lose your big bets on purpose, that's what I'm sure of, but still I want to say, be careful with those 4 dollar bets of yours. It's too risky to bet so much at once, in my opinion.

congratulations, how much did you put in each round? and how many rounds did you do until you managed to hit this multiplier? ~

I bet 20 cents and it took me 5 rounds to hit it. I know I was lucky, okay? Smiley

when trying to access the site. And I deposited $250 on the platform just before that(I got sponsored for playing in poker tournaments recently). I hope everything will be alright soon, because I want to play poker on this amazing platform. Smiley
All you can do is hope for the best. I remember only two days before Chipmixer disappeared I mixed some coin and I was lucky to be able the get the coin back. If I was a day or two late then I could lose a larger amount of bitcoin. You never know what can happen with a centralized service anytime.
Yes you never know and sometimes they are honest and make their best to avoid to completely scam their (past) customers. For example Hotbit had a rather bad reputation but when they closed they gave several weeks to their users to withdrawal their remaining funds and they even extended the deadline at the end. So Betwrong could maybe get lucky and get back his funds.

I really hope that things will be better for Betnomi in the nearest future than a situation when they, as honest people, will just allow users to withdraw their funds.

I hope they will be back soon with even more nice features. As for their poker platform, we all know how great it is. Online poker players would miss it big time if it wasn't there any more.

Ivanka Trump is not in any way qualified to be running for President so thats just a good thing its not likely to occur.   Just electing people because of a family link seems quite wrong for modern day political control of a democratic country, they should have to at least be justifying that power with work done over decades and thats not true here.  
~

As far as I know, bets on Ivanka Trump are not accepted anywhere, apart from sites that accept bets on George Clooney, Mark Zuckerberg, Kanye West ... I mean, it's totally totally for a laugh, right? But if you want to bet on them - Yes You Can! Right?

Fot example, some sites where you can bet on Bitcoin price accept bets on the range "More than $1,000,000". And I make such bets myself sometimes. It costs me only 10 sats



and I think the fun is worth it. Smiley
1346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: July 15, 2023, 09:43:11 AM
Rather than cheating it is all about utilising the opportunity. It is really hard to win against the machines. There are people who are skilled enough to cheat the machines through learning. I don't have the patience to learn as well as try against the gambling machines that are completely focused on profit making. I will go with fixed bets, because in the past I've won with fixed bets information shared on our forum. I'm not sure how far the bet is real information or coincidence, but I was able to win a fixed bet.

You mean, betting on fixed matches? You mean, reading a "secret info" on some private forums and use it in your betting? You know, I personally don't it's cheating from the gambling sites' perspective. I think they can perfectly say "Be my guest. Utilize the info and make your bets." Firstly, because all that "secret info" is bullsh*t most of the time. And secondly because, unless you are betting such big amounts that can't be compensated by counter bets on the site, the site shouldn't care much. It will still get its house edge.

Well if we look at the condition of the OP then the analogy is like don't think too much about tomorrow think about a bright future even though if we look closely when we don't think about tomorrow and don't have something to eat then let alone for a bright future, even for the day after tomorrow or one week ahead we don't know if it still exists or not because we are too obsessed with the future lol.
Indeed, in this case there are exceptions if we are still lived by parents but I think everyone here is very mature to just ask parents for food.
Investment is of course good I definitely support that but that doesn't mean we do everything in investment so that just to eat is difficult.

I think before reaching a certain level of income, the income that you don't need to think of how to cover your basic needs, you shouldn't think of investing at all. It shouldn't be like this, "Well, my salary is small, so, I can't afford investing a lot, but I can afford investing $50 per month, so, why not?" No. Those $50 will be taken from your "unnecessary spending", like spending on your entertainment, entertainment of your wife and kids, and you shouldn't just cut that and invest the money. Because cutting on your happiness can cause nose-diving at some point, and we don't need that.
1348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can i make 100 $ daily from online casinos on: July 12, 2023, 10:04:33 AM
is there method
To get 100 $ per day
what do you expect from betting in the casino? casinos are not a great place to look for a steady income or a stable income. you can't win bets in the casino every day.
the only good method to earn $100 per day is to open your own business. analyze a good business opportunity then use your money to open the business.

It's surely a good advice for someone wants to make money. I don't know about opening your own business, but expecting to make money on a regular basis, especially as much money as $100 daily, in online casinos is stupid. What  you can expect from online casinos is relaxation from making money elsewhere, and occasional winnings, of course, but not constant.
1349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you been threaten to stop gambling on: July 12, 2023, 09:38:47 AM
If you get to that stage , I think you're an addict to gambling and you already lost more than you can ever recover. Threatens on gambling are scary and I don't even want to imagine what is like to be like that and I don't want to find out. However, every action is a reaction of you previous choices so that should sum it up.  Undecided
Yes, of course it's clear if you're not an addict you won't be threatened to stop gambling whether it's from your family or lover especially your wife, I think everyone who threatens has seen you go beyond the limit of gambling or let's say they have seen you as a heavy addict so they threaten you to stop . because otherwise, of course there is no threat whatsoever.
~

This is not necessarily so. There's so much bad publicity about gambling that your relatives or close ones may be concerned about your betting even if you don't lose much to that, or you don't lose at all, or even win. And why is there that bad publicity? It's because there are addicted gamblers and their life is a tragedy. And people love reading tragedies, so, there's a demand, right? And journalists are happy to supply. They don't care about how objective it is as long as it attracts attention. Not all journalists are like that, but many, unfortunately.

~ Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it will never happen because it's impossible by design for a poker site to lose money regardless of however talented poker player or advanced AI is playing on the site. In poker tournaments the house takes its money, from 6% to 10% out of each ticket bought, before the game has even started. After that the house doesn't care about the level of players and who wins and who loses.
There is nothing to correct, I myself don't know very much about poker and all I said was mere speculation, and for all I care, you might be right after all..

And based on what you said, another question that comes to mind is, since casinos do not participate directly in the game, they just act as the game facilitators, in a situation where one or two players on the table are Ai bots, and the rest are humans, is it right to allow such a tournament? I mean for online pokers, first of all, is there even a way for the casino or other players to know if other online players are real humans of bots..?

I think if an AI bot would always take the same time before making a move like calling, folding, raising, things like that, it would be easy to spot one because humans always take different times for those moves. But the thing is that a bot can be programmed to purposely take different times. Then I think there's no way to tell.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it will never happen because it's impossible by design for a poker site to lose money regardless of however talented poker player or advanced AI is playing on the site. In poker tournaments the house takes its money, from 6% to 10% out of each ticket bought, before the game has even started. After that the house doesn't care about the level of players and who wins and who loses.
You are right, people utilizing AI models to beat others in poker won't actually affect the casino directly since they already get their fees from the games, but there can be one thing that might be disastrous for the casino, and it's the genuine players leaving their platforms only because there are AI models playing against them and they aren't being able to beat them, that will surely cost the casinos a fortune in the long run.

So to prevent that from happening, casinos will surely need to take action against those accounts which are utilizing AI models to gamble as it won't be difficult for them to detect that if they also make use of AI and ask every player some questions that only a human user can answer.

From what I know, for an AI to start beating human players, if they are good players, of course, it takes many hours, much more hours than the length of a single tournament, of studying their ways of playing. Without that an AI can't do much against good poker players, so, they won't be scared.

1353  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is money ruling the world? on: July 11, 2023, 12:00:25 PM
This is how it should be, but there are countries where national currencies are printed in unlimited amounts at some point. It happens when the government feels that it will be overthrown soon. Then they are printing out as much money as possible and people from the government and their relatives are buying property, gold and other precious metals and precious stones, and many of them become billionaires with that in the future. Regular people, of course, suffer heavily from that. The purchasing power of such currencies drops catastrophically and there are cases when can buy only several kilos of sugar with their monthly wage.

May be true because the people in government are living more satisfied life but not in all countries because their salaries are so higher that they can life comfortable life. If they are printing more money then they will use illegal way which is termed as money laundering and they cannot steal money of population because they have to give answer that how they earn money.

There are so many government's persons who spend certain time in prison because of money laundering and they have to return that amount if they earn with wrong way.

In those countries I was talking about they are not accountable to the law. Judges are either their friends/relatives or they just obey them, the authorities above them. It happens in very corrupt countries, and I hope they will seize to exist in the future, but today there are still too many of them, unfortunately.



Overall, for better or worse, money is the blood of the economy. I personally think it's for the better. Before money was invented the world was like hell compared to the current one.
1354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots 101: Basics, Strategies, and Discussion (with poll) on: July 11, 2023, 11:08:23 AM
-snip-

Just stick with the smallest bets possible, mate, that's my advice. And it can be both, for fun and for money, sometimes. You can stake just $0.20 and win $200 if you are lucky. I know it's possible because it happened to me once


$0.2 is already too high, because when I lost ,I played Sweet Bonanza with a bet of IDR 1000 = $0.06 (current rate). I lost quickly because I didn't do normal spins. At that time, every time I played, I always used the buy bonus feature. But it really worse, from every free spins, always get below 50% of the bonus buy price. Since then, I, who initially made sweet bonanza as my favorite place to play, no longer play this game anymore and move to other provider such as spadegaming and PGS.

Well, you din't buy bonus feature for $0.06 , did you? As far as I know the price of the feature ranges from 50 to 200 times your stake. So, I assume with the base bet of IDR 1000 = $0.06 you paid $6 for using the buy bonus feature. That's a $6 bet, mate, and nothing else. And my advice is to bet $0.20 at once, and never more than $0.40. It is more entertaining to hope for some big luck than making your potential win bigger at the expense of bigger bets.
1355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: July 11, 2023, 10:08:19 AM
~ If women would have the same eagerness as the men in the gambling, then the woman is tantamount to be wrecked to her bottom where she isn't in control of her self anymore. Everything becomes magical to them at that gambling moment keeping them the feelings of hopelessness with the thoughts of not worth to live just after loosing.
While men could walk away hoping for another day to strike back to win with a more tactical strategies.

And in an overview, Most people feels women who gambles are irresponsible and shameless because they feels it's a game of the fittest strictly for men.


It's a stereotypical way of seeing women that they are less educated and more inclined towards mysticism and stuff like that. For the last hundred years, or so, women are getting the same education as men in many countries and they are no different than men in those places, and there are more and more of such places in the world. I believe soon the question of differences between Women and Men in Gambling will be absolutely irrelevant.
1356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An Intriguing article: How to Perfect Your Gambling Strategy on: July 11, 2023, 09:27:19 AM
If you mean by all their customers taken together, then you are right. But how does this apply to us individual players? It's a false statement that "no one can beat the casino". You know this, right? There are tons of examples of people winning huge amounts through gambling, so, I think, we shouldn't repeat this false statement over and over like a mantra. Leave it to dishonest journalists.
I understand what you're saying but here what I mean is about luck and as I said before that there are no guarantees.
what I say is maybe some people will disagree, but from my experience, if I tell the truth, I think someone who wins a lot of money from gambling, if you calculate the overall losses and profits, will not be equal.
like for example I bet the first day I lost $500, the second day I lost $1000 and the third day I won $1000. despite getting a $1000 win but a $500 loss.
but back to that there are no guarantees because the luck of every gambler is different and all of this depends on a commitment not to be greedy. even though someone is lucky to beat the casino make a lot of money but greedy want to earn more I'm sure he will lose even more soon and fail to beat the casino like the problem of that time a person won over $500k but wanted to win $1m and finally all his big win was gone and failed to beat the casino.

I understand, there are such cases, there are many of them, that's true. But it's not like a rule that everyone loses in gambling in the long run. It's simply not true. It's like saying that everyone who drinks alcohol becomes an alcoholic eventually. Or, everyone who eats cake eventually becomes obese.

I, for one, am in profit from gambling, especially from playing poker, but I know it proves nothing, because it's a single case. What is more important is that neither online games, nor our brains are designed so that we will necessarily lose in the long run.

Such a statement can be true in individual perception. It's an opinion base and possible to take place.

Though most of the time, it's really more on the losing side in the long-run, like with your example eating a lot can turn you
to be an obese, keep playing and keep forcing yourself to win can turn to addicted gambler, also a big possibility depending
from how a person will handle and how he will be precise with his limitations.

Most people don't need those limitations. They just don't want to gamble all the tie, that's all.  There are many other things they fancy apart from gambling, and it's normal. Just as with that example with cake: if eating it makes you feel good it doesn't mean you have to eat cake all the time. Find other things that make you feel good. The World is full of such things.

When I play roulette, there are no patterns, I have played a lot using patterns, both colors, even or odd numbers, and it is difficult for them to follow an order, because when one is completely sure that what is predicted will come out , it does not come out This is normal, so there are many roulette strategies , you have to use them all to see what Works at a certain Time.

This is very important for any player to see no patterns when playing roulette. Because there can be no patterns, right? All "patterns" that we see playing any game purely based on luck is just a product of our imagination. They are unlucky people those who invented a strategy for roulette and accidentally it worked couple of times. The poor guys think their strategy actually works, and then they lose everything, while betting in hopes that it will work again.

But it's not just words of someone watching from the sidelines, it's stats, it's a fact that addicted gamblers constitute around 5% of all gamblers.. Check it by yourself.


I read some articles, and really saw that there are not as many addicts as it seems. Nevertheless, 5 percent is outdated statistics relating to 2018 or 2019 (judging by the latest articles on Wikipedia). But a year ago the statistics were updated, and now eight percent of respondents admit that they cannot control their desire to play. As you can see, unfortunately the number has increased (but in old surveys it was said that the number of addicts is only two percent).

I am sure that this is due to the fact that digitalization has made gambling much more accessible.

That's disturbing if true that the number has increased. I said "if true" because it's never certain, this is just a rough estimate, but what we can be certain about is that it is far from being the majority. Problem gamblers should know that it is not normal to be a gambling addict, and it's not the online gambling to blame but themselves.
1359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: July 10, 2023, 10:56:10 AM
..
Do you know why many people think that affiliate programs do not work and they are a waste of time! Because they tried it and failed to gain any profit from it.
They failed but this is not because those programs do not work, rather, it's because the don't know how to make them work.
Most of them share their links on popular groups, forums.. but they forget that most of the followers of those groups are not interested in gambling. They Wil simply skip your link and even if some of them will click on the link and register on the casino, only one or two will make a deposit.
But if you target a gambling community, even if it's smaller in numbers, then you will have better chances to get more loyal referrals
So many people fail in running affiliate programs, and it's because they haven't found a method that works for them. They only know how to spread their affiliate links on forums, popular groups, or social media, but they may not have found good ways to promote, so they can't make money from affiliate programs. It will depend on what you want to promote, where you share the affiliate link, and what methods you can use. One has to keep trying and looking for ways that are different from others so that it can make them successful in affiliate programs.

Maybe this is really what we have to do, keep trying. I, for one, have dropped the idea years ago, but seeing your post I started thinking "Why not?". I have almost 3k followers on twitter so I can try to spread my ref link. But this is what happened:



I tried several times with the same result. Maybe twitter won't allow you to tweet your ref link? After adding a space here "https: //freebitco.in/~" it worked, but then it's not exactly a link, right? There are 6 views in the first 5 minutes. Let's see how it turns out.
