Like what they have said and posted on the previous links your Avatar will take time to change in the upper right section but every time a member sees your post what they are seeing is the new one you have uploaded, it just takes time for you to personally see it. Try logging out of your account and visit a link where you have posted, you will see that you avatar has been successfully changed. Don't worry about this too much as this is just a delay, even when I was a full member back then I got worried just like you so I just searched some threads first to know if I have a similar problem that is when I knew that this is a common occurrence.
Got it, thanks Theb. |

Yes, go away if you win ... but for how long? Your mind will force you to go back.
Depends on ourselves, it is a part of money management. Once you won a big amount then you have to think wisely, yes you will think to come back but you should be smarter a little bit to manage your money. At least you need to split the amount you won. Keep 50-75% of it to your bank account and dont touch it for gambling purpose. So use the other 25% for gambling again if you want. Once you lose the 25% then just STOP. Perhaps if you would buy real estate with this money ($500k) and by buying it means buying without a mortgage - then by all means the money would be safer because you won't have liquidity with the money anymore and you can still get nice income such as rent from it. However I know some people who re-mortgaged their fully paid properties just for gambling purposes, so in the end of the day - if someone wants to find a way he would find a way. |

If you can enjoy the game even when you are losing then you have the right mindset and you can start playing. Otherwise you shouldn't even start.
How can anyone enjoy losing? NBA Players when they lose a game they are not too worried because they still get a fat paycheck, but a gambler who's losing surely won't enjoy it? |

Losing it all in gambling shows the worst form of gambling addiction.
The worst part is he just lost it all in just 60 seconds and even get have a depth of $50k which is pretty high as well. That's too arrogant of him, seriously. If you were never in his shoes you cannot judge him, no one can... |

Betting is betting and it doesn't matter that it is poker, casino or sport betting.
I won't talk about the moral aspect of this but the fact is that betting is something you go in and sometimes can't control. I've never bet huge amounts because i know i couldn't control myself. But even with "low" amounts I've seen myself playing them without any kind of reason or pleasure just because I HAD to click on that button in the hope of getting what I lsot back. Of course I lost it all.
Well said. |

That's one fact in gambling. It takes longer time to win but all the amount you've won will lose in a shorter time including your bankroll. It just says that it's easy to lose than to win in gambling. That's why it is advisable to run after winning and don't get carried away by continues green because for sure, reds will follow.
You're repeating the same thing that was said here and this was addressed, please see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5071320.msg48021076#msg48021076 |

Hey this things happens in stock trading too, people let their greed get better of them its basic human nature. I feel many gamblers know when when to start, but when it comes to pulling out they are clueless, they let their greed guide them and end up loosing. In my personal experience when I'm playing sometimes the gambling gets to me, even the risk of having debts doesn't scare me, and it's taken years of practice to quell my desire to stop when I'm ahead.
Gambling = Greed. Whether you bet with $5, $10 or $100,000. The amount doesn't matter, the time spent doesn't matter. Once you're in it then you're in it. It's not like a "casual gambler" has no greed, it's just that he hasn't reached the bottom of it yet but he is at serious risk of getting there. It's very unclear why people in this forum try to portray gambling as fun and joy. Taking money from someone else for no value whatsoever - has no joy in it, period. Not for the winner and not for the loser, they are both losers in the end of the day. Try to portray it otherwise and you would just be lying to yourself. |

Gambling should be just for a fun activity but not a regular income generator.
It would have been fun if money wasn't involved with it. Once money is in the picture then it becomes an immoral practice. One person takes money from the other for no real value in return. Do you see any fun in that description? |

That won't happen if the gambler keep himself busy, have big responsible, have new hobby or have different kind of addiction.
It's true to a certain extent... Justyn Larcombe, 47, from Kent - lost near £1,000,000 and he was a very busy person at the time he got addicted into it. Once again - you are looking for excuses claiming it would never happen to you, but honestly once you get hooked you are at a serious risk of not only losing a substantial amount of money but also at risk of losing your family, your job, your career and more than that. It's hard to find "successful" stories of people who gamble ... I did mention Daily25.com - Steve from Australia is someone who has been gambling for almost 8 years in sports betting - but as mentioned previously his ROI on his turnover is 1% .... !! 8 years, risking so much for such a small return?! Not worth it. He himself said all this has caused him sometimes too much stress, he also had several months where he lost 50% of his profits extremely quickly... 8 years and he hasn't reached his goal of making $250 AUD per day.... If you ask me - he has injected tons of adrenaline/rush to himself, being too thrifty/frugal is also not the best way to go .... his last blog post is about Japan where he writes how much he spent on the trip ... If this is the kind of lifestyle you guys are pursuing - by all means - go for it. |

Game Protect is a good service, and definitely helped with many cases.
Can I ask if GP can help to protect against websites without licenses such as Bookmaker.eu which is based in Costa Rica? Or any other shady sites that have no license and simply rely on their reputation to lure customers in?

No one can be winner in the bets for long streaks because as you said house has better edge of winning so if someone won in gambling then they need to get away with that rewards and spend it in the way he want of he looking for more money then he will learn the lessons just on the articles you mentioned.So the real moral of the story is "Don't be too greedy or you will lose everything".
If you properly read the story of the person who lost over $300,000 - you would see he did take his winnings away, and he did save them asides, and he did watch them closely and told himself that he would never bet again with this money. But .... life has proven otherwise ... he lost it all. Yes, go away if you win ... but for how long? Your mind will force you to go back. People need to understand this is like drugs, very addictive drugs - the best way to win is by simply betting on yourself i.e. don't gamble in the first place ... and if you did - put as many barriers as possible so you won't be able to go back to it. Or you can try to live with that, but that's a very costly habit, financially, emotionally and personally. |

That just shows how getting too carried away can mess up your logic.
The system is built and designed for this to happen. The system is not built for people to spend $10 and leave, if it was like that then the entire business wouldn't exist. It feels like you guys are trying to justify the need to place bets - you don't need to apologize for it. If you wish - follow Daily25.com - this is an Aussie guy who places tons of bets on a day to day basis, and writes a blog about his "investment" .... after 7.5 years of placing bets, and he used tipsters, many types of software, other websites etc. - He is barely on 1% ROI .... and that's someone who took this extremely seriously .... he probably made more from selling packages and such from his site, or from ads ... but the Alexa ranking .... 3.5m - not that great. Just shows you that someone tried to really turn this into a full time job and ended up making peanuts money out of it.... Say what you want to say, the house always wins, that's a fact, including sports betting. You would have a very hard time trying to convince me otherwise. |

True but its also a matter of not becoming greedy.
If you make $500,000 profits on sport betting you must collect your winnings and start with a 25k balance again or something like that. Im betting on sports as well. I am using valuebetting software and strategy. I am already happy making a consistent average of 25-50$ profits on a daily basis. But I know that I do not withdraw and increase my bets I will end up loosing everything. 1 downstreak is enough to chase losses and at the end end up in loss.
How many years have you been gambling if that's okay to ask? There are some people who built lots of "fortune" from gambling and lost it all. Graham Calvert is a great example of a greyhound trainer, greyhound is a dog racing, in his case it was in the UK, he was a dog trainer and placed lots of bets on the dogs he knew that would win, he was a sort of an "insider", he had the most amazing "valuebettng software and strategy" you could ever think of. Wanna know how he ended up? Google his name and find out ... lawsuit against William Hill - lost it, lost his wife, his family and his life pretty much (I think he is still alive but in prison, he got nobody and that's a really sad thing). He is not the only one, there are tons of people with similar examples .... emotion, knowledge, strategy - all go down the drain if you lose the plot, and it's a very fine and thin line that separating between being sober and losing the plot. |

The story is from about almost 5 years ago but this is 100% relevant to 2018 or 2019 or many years to come, you can read it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/1ch7wb/starting_with_almost_nothing_i_made_almost_500000/In short version, he gambled on Bitcoin, made $500,000 - and lost it all later on, he then continued to gamble in Roulette and other games, and ended up with $50,000 in debt. By the way, This is not only related to Bitcoin or Casino Games - if you think Sports betting is different think twice after reading this:https://www.psychforums.com/gambling-addiction/topic182379.htmlThis person lost over $300,000 within 48 hours, all because of sports betting, he had bets on tennis, basketball, soccer - you name it. And there are many more stories to read such as this: https://www.reddit.com/r/problemgambling/comments/4pzgmu/i_just_lost_140000_in_5_minutes/Moral of the story - you can never be rich with gambling, and even if you end up being "rich" - you would lose the whole lot in no time ... only the house wins because the house has an edge.
