I have been playing online ever since, I am not a kind of guy who likes to go to a physical casino and play, so as a gambler I am not so affected with the conona virus threat. I have some friends who really go to a real casino, maybe I could teach them to just play online, my favorite is sports betting but season was cancelled, so maybe its time to try to explore difference kind of games.
I have downloaded a ton of games so far, my steam suddenly got a lot bigger in the recent days because we are stuck at home, however nothing gives that adrenaline rush of gambling neither.

I can't gamble all that, there is no way I can spend that much time but more importantly that much money on gambling so I gamble maybe an hour a day, two if I got lucky a bit, but that is about it, and even that is not every day honestly, so I still have to play computer games and online ones against other people do give me some sort of rush, it is still not a lot because I am not too good, if I was really good I would maybe feel some entertainment for maybe winning maybe losing situations but I usually go first so I don't get that fun feeling, on gambling I am quite better than gaming Cheesy.
If you find yourself good in controlling emotions and you are aware of losing money and time are not valuable then you'll be able to entertain yourself
with playing online. This types of time killer entertainment needs to be more responsible in order to keep the enjoyable part and not to harm your savings.
Online casinos are just there so best t understand everything especially the risk factors.

I get your point but they aren't really similar they both have risk,
But gambling is way more different than trading gambling is fun unlike trading it is too serious.
You couldn't trade to have fun and relax.
That's your own perceptions but for traders who already been here for some time, they've treated this place as source of their enjoyment.
Trading gives them money and that money provide relaxations. Gambling most of the time do the other side, it's not giving you money but
stress when you lose your capital.
143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Right time for gambling addicts to come out of addiction? on: March 19, 2020, 06:35:35 AM
Actually the gamblers have the initiative or the common sense on where they should bet or gamble so they will always find way on how they will be able to play aside from going to the casinos in which it is prohibited by the government because of the sign of the coronavirus there are still some online casino in which they can play their just for fun so that they don't need to go outside or go to the casino in order to play.
The impact of corona from prohibiting people to go around offshore gaming house gives traditional gamblers to stop their addictions, I'm talking about those who are not familiar with online gaming as they can find other ways to entertain and not to play gambling for the moment. A good example of 30 day quarantine will lead them to keep being busy to other things in life.
144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play gambling that require skills and techniques. on: March 17, 2020, 01:43:19 PM
For me, Gambling is much more fun it is only because of your luck, there is more thrill and excitement when betting because, you totally don't know what would really happen after you made your decision. Gambling based on your skills will feel different because, it would only feel like a competition and not a gambling at all. Also, it might be unfair to other players if someone is more skilled from them that might make them feel not good and would not play again.
Gambling with luck beside you added much enjoyment, especially if you are betting with lotteries or you hit the jackpot from slot. You are correct with strategy and skill based gambling where knowledge brings you higher confidence that you'll be able to win according to how you analyze the game though
there's also luck that's needed as both strategy and skill based gambling also prone from shit things that happened around.

Maaring si Kail Sotto ang susunod sa yapak ni Fajardo kung hindi man tuluyang makuha ang batang to sa NBA.

Slim ang chance na makapasok ang batang ito sa NBA, maraming negative comments ang mga sports analyst na nakakita sa kanya doon kaya PBA ang bagsak ng batang ito. Kung mag-add ng muscle si Kai Sotto at lalaruin niya ang larong pang big man sa PBA, sigurado akong magka-MVP siya, huwag lang puro tira sa labas kasi parang si Mo Tautoa ang kalalabasan niya.
Bata pa si Kai and kung talagang magpupursue sya sa NBA malaki pa din ang chance nya  since nandun na ung basic at ung height nya, ung determinasyon talaga ang magiging susi nya para makuha nya ung pangarap nya.
Ang kagandahan lang sa kanya eh hindi lang PBA ang option nya, nandyan din ang Euro league in case na lumiit ang chance na sa NBA, mas
malaki ang offer dun kesa dito sa pinas..

At dahil nga hinihingan nila ko ng contract naisip ko na lang sabihin na wala na ko freelance job at yung real job na lang meron ako. Ngayon naman pinapapasa ako ulit ng coe o payslip, ulit na naman. Hays
Nge. Dapat hindi ka na papasahin ulit kasi nakapag pasa ka na, nasa kanila na record mo eh. Ang hassle naman talaga kung ganyan. Kung ako, napikon na ako. hayst realtalk lang... Tanungin mo na kung isesend mo ba ulit, maibabalik na sa okay ang lahat? Para diretsahan na, wala ng pasikot-sikot. Isa lang din naman pala patutunguhan. hehe

Naka freeze ba account mo? Kahit mag send sa ibang user hindi pwede o mag buy ng load?
Real talk, malamang dismayado na ko if ganyan ang mangyari sa kin, buti na nga lang hindi ganun kadami ang naiipon ko sa wallet ko sa kanila sapat lang pamgbayad ng bills no need ng maglabas ng pera diretso load or bayad na lang sa kasyang bayarin.
Sana sagutin ka ng rep nila dito para ma clear at maayos na yang issue mo sa kanila.

Donovan Mitchell is feeling great.
It may really not affect on them since they are all healthy athletic people.

https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1239549150729035776

In isolation but all the test with him are negative with fever, also, no symptoms.
I think he is also enjoying the isolation watching his highlights.  Grin
Smiling and looking pretty well.
We should still wait for more news. 14 days is still the maturity of this shitty virus.

Not everyone that is tested positive and isolated tend to have the syndrome. Some people are still normal but they do have the  corona virus tested positive. I wouldn't really trust the news nowadays, media tend to blow things up through some extensive writing about this kind of issue

They only care about the impact for people to read the news but being responsible is no longer the focus of medias nowadays. Agree to you that things are no longer taking correctly as they are bringing more panics than to sort whate should be the correct information to help the government and the people itself to be more aware and relied with the right information.
148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why there are so many people who get addicted on gambling? on: March 17, 2020, 05:56:28 AM
snip..
a gambler will not get to the level of addiction if the person has never won big.. average gambling addicts are people who have won big when they win big automatically their minds program that they will easily win.  even though they lose a lot, their minds say that don't stop, you will definitely win..

Not really. People who always get lost in gambling will get addicted too because the factor that can make them become an addiction is because they will be curious about how to win the gambling games. So that can lead them to play more and more, and no matter if they can win or not, they slowly become addicted to gambling. They will realize that they become addicted, but that will be too late for them to get out of gambling because they will lose big money without they recognize.
The mindset is on how they will be able to find the right pattern to win back those loses, chances to engage more time even they are keep losing
they will keep trying and hope that time will come and luck will let them to take something out from the house, only to realize that when they
win they will keep coming back and find themselves addicted to this activities.
149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: March 17, 2020, 05:38:12 AM
30 days is the given timeframe to fixed and ironed out what's the best thing to do.

For now, let's stay away from any rumors to avoid expectations.

NBA is already working on that and I think we don't need to wait for 30 days before they will release an official statement.
There's nothing to do now but to wait for further announcement from the NBA board, this suspension is needed to make sure that everything
is being taking place, and like what you just said NBA is surely working on it and they will released updates regarding to this concern.
We can check the website from time to time for information that we wanted to know about the league.

So China already had contained the virus?

I thought the numbers of being infected was still growing, is there any news regarding about this info? I think I will be interested as that would somehow give us some kind of assurance that this will be contained soon also.

Not totally contained at all but the recovery rate is improving.

We can say that they are now in the last stage of dealing with the virus and only a few cases established while our country is just starting with the fight same with other countries that currently in lockdown.

It's impossible to think that it will be contained for a few months. What matters here is, we are now seeing slowly that the situation is now being controlled on those countries that heavily infected with the virus-like China and South Korea. PH will follow soon.
The more the people realize that following government instructions the more this virus will be contained or it will lessen the risk. We all knew that
WHO is really trying to find the proper treatment for this virus.
Good to know that numbers of recoveries are increasing and giving good hope for the entire world.
151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some casino gambling tips. on: March 16, 2020, 03:27:04 PM
Those tips are useful in order to enjoy if your gambling purpose is mostly for entertaining yourself. Though there's no assurance of winning but from what you intended to do you'll be satisfying your urge of playing the game.
The difference between online and offline gamings as you have said but due to spreading virus for sure this one is truly affected.
152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: March 16, 2020, 02:31:50 PM
I wonder what would have happened if the virus will take too long to disappear, we can't do something about it but to wait for the officials to resume the game again. meanwhile, players will have good times for their families now that the season has been suspended. the only thing we can assure about this season is, the Golden State Warriors is no longer have a chance to play on playoff.
I am not thinking of that anymore, I am optimistic that the NBA season will resume soon, I don't want to think of the possibilities that the season will be cancelled as that is unjust to the NBA teams who struggle in the past but has been performing pretty well this season.

Lets all be positive that this virus will able to find the proper treatment so this issue with the resume of our favorite games will be there for us.
Not sure if what will be the next thing in mind by NBA facilitators but for sure it will be for the best interest of everyone.
153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: COVID-19: Avoid casino, play online on: March 16, 2020, 01:31:33 PM
Avoid crowded place as much as we can to stay safe from the virus.
Luckily we who only play at online casino doesn't have to worry and stop from gambling.
If others who have been gambling on casino would found out about our online gambling sites this could help the market to grow up again
But of course we have to wait for this virus to be cured before seeing it happen.
It's a good way for those who are involve deeply from this activities they can easily place bets and enjoy by using online platforms and no longer needed to go to the offline casinos and play the game you love.
You can see alternatives as casino online also provided games that you can find from offshores.
154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ways to recover from being addicted in gambling. on: March 16, 2020, 10:18:38 AM
Addiction is a disease and should be treated with serious caution.
Definitely. It is a serious problem among gamblers. Every party should contribute to support the way to recover the addicted gamblers. Not only their family but they also need helps from their close friends, experts, and neighborhood. If the addicted gamblers have been at a severe level, they must visit professionals or experts of mental health regularly.

If the person is genuinely want to get away with this then I think everybody will support him/her as nobody would like their own person to get into gambling and spoil their own life. Only thing is that one should not be cheating that on one side show as if not into gambling anymore and on other side continue to gambling beacuse once this is known then no one will believe that person and no one will even care to help out to overcome from such addiction .
I agree to that, people who loves you will support your will to step away from gambling. Those people around you will be there to help and assist
you to whatever stake that you needed them.
Recovering is not from other people but it's needed to be in your own self decision. the will to quit and the help by those who supports you will be
enough to removed you from this addiction.
155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: March 15, 2020, 05:39:47 AM
Going back to Casimero vs Inoue, I'm sure organisers are looking ways to stage the fight without putting risk on boxing fans, I don't know how are they going to implement it, but we will see if they can make it happen as schedule so that we as boxing fans can still watch this very interesting and good fight.

They can't change the current set up, this is not possible without the fans watching them, so its either they postpone it or they will face the risk of being infected on the virus, the thing is, no matter how careful you are, there are still possibilities that the virus will spread, and this big crowd here, the risk is so high, if other sporting events like NBA are suspended, I would not be surprise here will be postpone.
The chance of getting this fight to be postponed is high as mentioned that the risk is not worthy boxing fans should wait for some time there's no need to rush for this fight since the Corona virus can spread very quickly it's better for those promoters to rethink as they need to gamble with the health of those possible people to watch the fight.
156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: March 15, 2020, 03:08:29 AM
Hays, this is sad. No more games because of this virus. I wish that the infected players will completely recover and be cured as soon as possible.

The tracking should be done and the people they've talked to and interacted with before knowing that they were infected must also go into self-quarantine to avoid further infections.  Undecided
For sure the team owners and the commissioners will take actions in order to lessen the possibilities of much wider spread of this virus around their premises.
Fans are likely to accept this actions from the league governors in order not to bring more risk and have more casualties.
157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have control or not? on: March 14, 2020, 05:05:15 PM
Yes i can now control myself in gambling because i don't want to get addicted and be greedy again just like what happened to me last year that i got greedy and i lost thousands of money due to gambling addiction. It is the reason why i am scared to gamble for a long period of time because any time i could be reckless and greedy again, that is why my friends or my brother is always by my side whenever i am gambling to control myself but i am now only gamble for entertainment or for leisure of time.
Tendency that you'll be back from how you suffer before is still there, make sure that you will not lose site from your friends or your brother as gambling urgency will flow around your mind especially when you are losing money.
Your savings will once more be at risk when the time that you really feel the urgency of playing without any limits.
158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Right time for gambling addicts to come out of addiction? on: March 14, 2020, 04:27:44 PM
As we all know , Coronavirus has impacted each and every industry in the whole world and sports isn't an exception .

If you take a look at this  , https://www.nytimes.com/article/sports-canceled-coronavirus.html or https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5232295.0 you will get to know how many tournaments across different sports have been affected .

But the question is , is this the right time for gambling addicts to come out of addiction? The assumption I am making here is  that the gambling addicts are addicts on sports betting and not casino game addiction or poker .

Why this question is because although I wanna bet on sports ( which I have been doing every week since 8 years ) now I cannot .
It's going to be a case to case basis, some people will be ok to stop and just wait for the resumption of the sports betting, while others will just shift to other forms of gambling like online gambling casino just to satisfy their urge to gamble, the one that will benefit here are online gambling casinos if these people made a shift.
The answer is opinion base for sure, and like what you have said, to those who are addicted to sports gambling and don't have any idea if how
casino games works, they will not entertain this kind of gambling while to those who wanted to satisfy their urge of gambling possibility to play
some casino games will do for them.
159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: March 14, 2020, 03:19:25 PM
How do you even proceed after this? I mean let's say Gobert is cleared and Donovan is cleared as well, and you do tests to everyone and you cancel all the viewers in the arena and just make sure bare minimum number of people are there who are all tested and fine, it is still not NBA as we know it. Hell I am not even sure if people would want to play with players who got corona but get cured, even after being cured it will be hard for players to play against those people psychologically.

In short, we will need a lot more evaluation to continue, it may actually really take more than a month to come back. Whatever happens I am 100% certain that no team would allow to continue playoffs from right here, they will want to play the rest of the games if the season will continue.
That's the mentality behind, once a player/s got positive with this virus those who will play against him will think for it's health. We can't blame
people's mindsets after the spread of this pandemic virus.
Gobert and Mitchell  are examples of how this virus can reach people whatever state you have in life and how healthy you think you are.

Minsan na lang ako makapanood ng mga balita sa TV kaya maganda talaga na napag uusapan din itong issue para updated din yung mga katulad ko dito. So please provide recent news or updates regarding this issue kung ano ang magiging kahihinatnan ng ABS-CBN sa huli. Kaya dapat yung mga ibabalita nila ay walang kulang o sobra. Di pa pala sila natutu noong una kaya dapat nasa ayos at tama na sila ngayon para wala ng kasunod na violations in the future kung sakali man na makapag renew ng franchise ang network.
Matanong ko lang, ano yung naging violations ng ABS-CBN during President Marcos?
Wala pang update since natabunan ng corona ung issue na to, malamang if hindi mapupush ng mga congressman yung batas na para sa renewal nila malamang sarado sila ng wala sa oras.
Hindi sila pwedeng magbiro sa mga ibabalita nila ngayon since malamang sa malamang mahihirapan silang maipush yung renewal ng franchise dahil
sa mga mali nilang nagawa nuon kasama ung mga malisyosong pagbabalita nila.
