I guess the main question that makes you increase your gambling addiction is the rush of winning. Winnings give an incredible sensation and on e a gambler tastes it he either learns to control it or it will destroy him.

I don't think you are seeing things the right way. The current price of Bitcoin is a great opportunity of the market to grow. It gives space for many newcomers to gain interest and attract even more investors. As for the miners, they have to cover for expenses. I imagine that most individual miners are just selling bitcoin just to cover for expenses and the remaining Bitcoin, they are certainly hoarding. Even though the price is declining, most believe we will still see new highs for the asset

There are a lot of gamblers that do not even grasp the idea of having simple statistical techniques, as they simply rely on luck. And quite frankly, those are the ones who make casinos profitable. Even those gamblers who apply mathematical concepts and statistical techniques many of the times may fail, but by using those techniques, they greatly increase their chances of winning. After that, it is just a question of management. But yeah, most players are completely unaware of how to apply mathematical concepts and statistical techniques to gambling, it's true.

I'm not too fan of multipliers. Even though there is the promises of high profits, we need to take into account that the risk also goes up exponentially. That is why I prefer to avoid multipliers and only go for them with sure bets.

Great thread. This is very useful information for newbies who are starting their way into betting. Now, I just think you forgot about one form of betting that is also quite popular which is the Asian Handicap betting. I guess you should also consider this as many bookies offer this option as well.
Asian handicap is a form of betting that originated in Asia and is mostly used in soccer betting. It means that one team is the top dog who has an upper hand over the under dog. Asian handicaps eliminate the chance of a draw in a match, so the possible outcomes are two.

Well, there is nothing new here. For years governments have been working hard to implement effective laws for the gambling industry. Today, with the advent of cryptocurrency casinos, regulatory pressure has been increasing in a way that it is almost impossible for casinos to operate without any kind of compliance

Thansk for the heads up, but I actually wanted to create a new thread as it is supposed to be my 2022 last predictions. It so happens that my picks were only matches for the Premier league but I could have chosen different leagues for different countries...

So, I would like to leave the last predictions of 2022!

England - Premier League

Brighton - Arsenal

Arsenal is the top dog for this game, however, Brighton plays with the massive support of their fans and has shown quality football. Thus, a well-disputed match is expected, where goal opportunities will appear. In front of such a scenario, I believe the most likely scenario for this match will be for both teams to score at least one goal.

Both Teams Score

Wolverhampton - Man Utd

I see Manchester United as a favourite for this match, however, the home team should also have its say. It should be noted that the market "Both teams score" was a winner in the last five Manchester United away games. In this way, a very busy game is expected with several goals opportunities for both teams

Both Teams Score

Bournemouth - Crystal Palace

It is true that Bournemouth can be more confident about playing at home, however, in this round they receive an opponent that provides amazing good football. In addition, both teams have several defensive issues. Having said that, risking in favour of the ''Above 2,5 Goals'' market in this game is a good option.

Above 2,5 goals


Man City - Everton

In addition to Manchester being motivated after the latest results obtained, it still receives a team that has shown serious flaws in the defensive process. Everton conceded a total of nine goals in the last three matches played, and, on the other hand, Manchester City has shown its offensive potential, scoring six goals in the last two games. In this way, I expect to see the occurrence of a few goals.

Above 2.5 Goals

Newcastle - Leeds

The most likely scenario for this match will be for both teams to score at least one goal. It is true that a game more controlled by the home team is expected, however, Leeds also plays good football, with a lot of offensive quality. It should be noted that the market "Both Teams Score" was a winner in Leeds' last five games, counting for the championship and in three of the last four matches between the two teams.

Both Team Score

The wheel is turning, so let's hope to see good results!

Let me hear your predictions!

I always play for fun. I actually love gambling, but of course that the ulterior purpose of gambling is always to win and earn some profits as this is the best part of gambling. I'm sure no one gambles just for the sake of fun and not having the urge to win in the back of their mind. So, to me, gambling for fun always comes with the final purpose of winning.

I think that it is the basis for all of is who are gamblers. Yep we are in it for the fun but also for the money. And when you are not earning some it can still be fun. You just have to know how to lose. Gambling is one of those activities in which you need to balance your winnings with your losses. This means that you will need to accept the losses as something normal and detach yourself from the emotional harm it brings. Once you learn to control these emotional urges, you have learned how to gamble!

Yep, apart from making you lose a lot of money, gambling can be extremmely time consuming and this will make you forget other more important things such as spending time with your family as well as time to rest. Additionally, the stress of losing a lot of money that you cannot afford to lose can also drive you mad and increase the chances of mental illness.

Having third party features that can be integrated onto casinos that can grant gamblers additional security when it comes to fighting addiction and wrekless behavior would be an amazing idea. It is also something that can work out in terms of business model.

Yeah, I actually find the feature extremmely useful as ot prevents you to get out of control and immediatelly recharhe your account after a real hard bad beat. That is basically when you feel frustrated for losing hard and in the back of your mind you believe that it is perfectly possible to recover all the money  lost in a coupple of plays. Well, this is terribly wrong and this feature is perfect to help you avoid going down that road.

That is actually true. Most gamblers are just in it for the money and they do not have any relistic approach to what the risks they taking in relation to what they can potentially earn. And even worst, mos do not even have a proved technique and are just betting on a chase of profits that are off hand. Yes it is true, greed is the first mistake of a gambler.

I guess that is one of the major mistakes people do around gambling. To gamble as a way of getting additional money. I say that is wrong, as you should not rely on gambling to make money. Making money simply by gambling is not feasible as you will innevitabelly make some mistakes and lose much of your money. Although there are several techniques to stay on the profit, this is actually not a sure thing. So, if you are in need of money, just stay away from gambling.

Yeah, I agree that it is very easy to go around the responsible gambling feature if you have an account in different casinos. Thing is, I only use around 2 casinos. One for soccer betting and another one to play poker. This way, for me it becomes easy to follow the feature. But as I said, this is a feature which is not found in many crypto casinos, so you also need to have other techniques to prevent you from spending money that you cannot spend

I do not know about you guys, but I gamble because I like it and because it is a hobby as well as an addiction. I'm good with myself, as I already admitted to having an addiction but tried to find and apply techniques to avoid getting off track and spending all of my money on gambling. It's quite easy for me to control my gambling anxiety as I already follow strict rules that help me stay on the line.


What about you guys? Do you have any addiction to gambling? What drives you to gamble? Is it the long shot of having a big profit coming in or is gambling simply a way of spending time for you?

Sometimes licences do not mean anything as even if they have licences they could not have any reputation, or even worst, they can havea bad reputation.


For me, it is much more important to find that  a casino has a good reputation than if it is fully licenced.

The responsible gambling feature is something that is very useful but unfortunatelly it is also something that it is difficult to finding in most of the crypto casinos out there. I remember that i have found the feature on Betcoin a few years ago. I dunno if they still have it.

As for the functionality of the feature itself, it is a feature for players that can easily lose their way after a few bad beats. It allows for players to set upmaximum deposits/monthand daily top expending, so I believe this is something that cryptocasinos should implement.
