if you think 30x-40x wagering requirements are easy to achieve then why don't you give it a try?
what I know is that if a gambler knows the easy conditions for getting a bonus, $1-$5 is a lot of money for gamblers and of course they will try to get the bonus. because the terms of the bet are easy to achieve and get a bonus number of dollars.
it doesn't matter if the bonus is big or small, the most important thing is to try and gain experience from reaching those conditions.

for me 30x-40x the condition is rather difficult to achieve. because there are betting limits that make us play longer and in the end our balance always decreases and loses before reaching the conditions.
Granted the wagering requirement of 30x-40x the stake is pretty easy to do, but sadly it seems like betting up to 40x if you only get a $1-$5 reward is it worth it. You don't know that I used to pursue such conditions to be able to get prizes, but the prizes I received were not comparable to what I spent to fulfill these conditions.
It seems that not only me but other gamblers also have the same thought, namely if the bonus prizes that are given are not worth what has been issued then they will not want to do it either.
If you think it doesn't matter how big or small the prize amount is because the most important thing is to try and gain experience then I'm sure it won't take long for you to lose everything chasing a meager bonus but spending almost everything you have in the casino wallet.

30x-40 is not easy... and I am not sure about the $1-$5 rewards you are talking about, to be honest. A 100% deposit bonus is x2 your deposited amount, most common is 100%, but it can be higher or lower... some casinos add that to your balance immediately after the deposit, but you can't withdraw before you complete the wagering requirement. While in some (like at BC) your bonus is locked and you are unlocking it with wagering, but you can withdraw/deposit again without problems.

Maybe you are talking about some different casino perks and the prizes that come from leveling up and tasks... they are indeed low sometimes (most of the time in most casinos). But it is what it is...

It all depends on luck also, I tried it several times on casinos already but always failed to complete such a wagering requirement. Most of the times, I only get to 10% or something lol. And if a 30-40x wagering requirement is already hard, imagine to complete a 500x requirement lol.

It's all about luck and hitting some higher payout in the beginning. From many bonuses with x30-x40 wagering requirements, I completed just a few (maybe 1 in 10 or 1 in 20 even)... the ones I finished and took some money are the ones with some big wins in the beginning, later it's easier just to wager with some higher balance.

When it comes to my BC.Game bonuses I have +$4k for unlocking... it's going very slowly.

Hey guys, do you like spinning the wheel of fortune? In honor of St. Patrick's Day, the Wheel of Fortune was launched on the platform.
In just 1 hour this wheel will be available to Starbets platform users.

Announce: https://t.me/starbets_io_channel/116




Thanks Klarki! Just spun it for the first time but only won 1 token. Tested out the new Keno game and I like it, the auto made is very fast but didn't win anything big today. The auto mode also seems changed on the other games (just tested it on Dice) and don't really know if I like it. It takes a bit longer than before also.

200 satoshis for me! Smiley

Keno looks great, and I let it run on auto with some small balance I have in USDT... more for mining purposes than for big wins. I didn't notice any difference between auto settings for other games... maybe it looks a bit different, but the options are simple as before. Maybe the team will upgrade auto-betting options one day, I would definitely like to see that.

Forbes proving once again their rankings are fake and you can just pay to be mentioned

There are many interesting comments when we start scrolling down. This is hilarious what they are doing and how this is passing from year to year.

SVB recorded six straight quarterly losses, why didn't these financial gurus fix the bank? Yet they claim to be the only solution.
Because it really isn't the job of the economists or 'gurus' to prevent a certain bank from going insolvent — it's the CEO, the team in general, and the board of directors' jobs.
But some of these CEO and board of Directors claim that they have wealth of experience in financial matters. The way they attack cryptocurrency firms will make one believe that they have all the solutions and are infallible.
After all, no matter how talented they are, they are human and will make mistakes from time to time...

I guess that the board of directors always gets big bonuses at the end of the year, it doesn't matter if they did a good job or if they made some royal mess with big losses.

If one tries to change the destiny he may succeed or fail but he may get a result. But there are many people in the world who only dream inactively without taking any initiative.

But one should keep in mind that gambling is a risky platform. As there are lot of histories of victory, there will be defeats as well. Use gambling money as much as you can afford to lose.

If you don't try you will never know. I believe you are right when you say that many people dream inactively, but when we are at a win/lose ratio of people who dared to try a majority lose for sure. On one success story, we have hundred if not thousands of stories with the bad end.

It's like that with gambling as with many other things in life. There are no rules or universal definitions/answers, we are playing with what we have, sometimes against the odds (some people are aware of that and some are not) and we bear consequences for every bad move we make.

I like to read about guys/girls who had luck, who beat the odds sort of speaking, but it's not like all of us can do the same one day. Even thou I try I still can't hit that max win on any slot! 8 years and counting...

As far as I understand, if 6 people do not join, then the money should be automatically returned...

As always if the tournament doesn't meet "the min required players". I guess for this tournament the min required players is 6. Smiley

If there is a minimum number of people, but no more than ten, then I think everyone will agree that this first game can be considered a test (if the game is this weekend).

I don't think you should complicate things... call it a test game to see how many people are serious about this series, or the show is on and that's it, with 10 players, more or less.
I don't wish to be negative, but even with freerolls (with nice prizes) before the series, we didn't have a lot of players. If people still remember some of the previous Betnomi series on the forum. So I guess that some test games will not hurt, and probably will show how many people are really interested in all this.

I wish to know if anyone has successfully claimed referral bonuses and how easy was the process and what Casino did you claim those bonuses

This is the same thing as affiliating with the casino and I don't think it's it's a waste of time...

Referral and affiliate programs are two different things. I guess we can say they are similar, but when you take a better look at "numbers" you will notice a difference, sometimes a big one...

I claimed some "very little" amounts of coins from my referrals in different casinos. Referral links shared on some social networks did their thing, along with a few "online acquaintances", but none of them was an active gambler/player, so I didn't harvest a lot of money from referral programs.
I guess it all comes down to one thing, are you able to bring people to some casinos or not? It's not easy as it sounds, but it's possible... and some people are very good at that. They have a nice passive income every month, even without playing (if you are an affiliate Wink).

This is an opinion which would welcome more contributions and possibly ways to develop this particular board if considered and deemed fit to hid to.

Thank you

Simply no! It will not make any contributions except unnecessary spam! Whatever you wish to write (positive or negative) you are welcome to do that in any casino ANN thread, like each of us. If you have some undisputed case with some specific casino you are welcome to open a scam accusation in that section.

In the end, we can't compare our own (amateur) reviews with professional reviews by people who really tried deposits/withdrawals with higher amounts, and tested all games with lower and higher bets. Above all that, have experience with gambling in general and everything that comes with that. One of them is https://www.btcgosu.com/ for sure, Efi and his rating on the speaks for itself.

Manipulation and fake reviews could easily be done on almost all platforms especially if creating accounts is as easy as ABC...

And those fake reviews and complaints happen more than we think... that is for sure!

Nb. Sorry for the slight delay

I would like to confirm that I've received the prize(s) in my bitcoin address a few seconds after I sent my address to efialtis.
Thanks BTCGOSU for the easy contest, although I hoped to see more participants in the contest.
I'm not sure why there were few participants only, even less than the previous one while in fact it is very nice contest with several possible rewards to grab and with low minimum bet as well.


This event is more than nice with many prizes... I also expected more participants, but seems like there are not so many slot players here on the forum, or at least there are not many Gosus playing on BC.

Congrats on winning this one Panjul! I was very unlucky this time, I simply didn't have the luck to hit something interesting... mostly I was getting very low payouts and I busted my balance pretty fast!

Thanks for the update on the roadmap! Looking forward to the addition of the new inhouse games and the Curarao license. This always helps for credibility; a license is not the holy grail but gives the player more confidence to play on a site. 

Keno in the first quarter and another in-house game in the second sounds good. The license can give some confidence, or limit access to some people (strange things happens lately with some of the Curacao operators and my country), so I am looking forward to user bonuses and rakeback a bit more than for a license.

More and more sites have "live stats" for in-house games, and some of them even for third-party games. I don't see that in the road-map, but I hope you will consider that.

On top of this, I have accumulated 300+ spins now. However, I am waiting for them to reach 1000 spins. It ain't easy to hold but the party is on!

I noticed today that the size of the base prize from the wheel of fortune has already decreased from 50 to 48 sats. So if BTC continues to grow at the same rate, you should think about using those 300+ spins now rather than waiting until you have 1000 spins in your account. In other words, you could potentially miss out on a lot of sats and RP as well as lottery tickets.



I noticed the same thing... I thought about a reward decrease, but I didn't expect it so soon. I have a lot more WoF spins, and in one second I was thinking to spin all of them, but I decided to wait. I think it's just temporary (maybe I am wrong about it), so I will wait a bit more.
I'm aware that we who hold can miss out on some sats and RPs, but if we get Rolex it won't matter much anyway. Smiley

I agree into some words above that being honest is sometimes its really hard.There are indeed questions could really be answ0ered neither Yes or No.LOL0
In general, i do play when i do get bored which means i do seek for leisure but there are times which greeds do activates. hehe

We are all addicts... when we do things we like we need to be addicted, more or less. I believe most of us play comfortably, but I agree that there's some greediness in each of us, and it turns on more or less often. Moments of heat and passion... and not-so-rational thinking.

In the end, I think that it all comes down to the simple question, can you afford to spend money on gambling? Those who can afford to play & lose will gamble for fun and entertainment, and those who risk what they can afford to lose will face consequences, sooner or later.
1454  Economy / Economics / Re: Americans go to Mexico for medicals to cut costs. on: March 13, 2023, 09:45:34 PM
The recent kidnapping of four Americans exposed me to the medical tourism going on in America. I have always thought that the US was a perfect country has very functional health, economic, and political systems. I thought all Americans have access to cheap and quality medical services until I read that over one million Americans go on medical tourism in Mexico yearly.

And the reason why some of them choose Mexico was because of its quality and low cost. These medical tourists are aware that it is risky to do to some parts of Mexico, but they still go there because they want to cut costs.
Is there any other reason why Americans go to Mexico for medical?

Medical tourism is not new, and it's widespread! Sometimes it's cheaper but in some cases, people choose other countries with "more flexible laws"... simply said you can get any kind of medical intervention if you have money. In the past years, there's been a big drama in Poland and new regulations about abortion, and girls/women go to nearby countries for that.

Not so long ago, a young boy died on the operating table, and a woman had complications after the operation, when she returned to Serbia, they tried to save her, but unfortunately, she also passed away. They decided to be treated in Turkey, through some agencies that promised them the best care at much more affordable prices. Their families are trying to find some justice, but it's so complicated according to their statements that I had the opportunity to read.

Definitely, it's a hard decision to make, but when people are short on money and they desperately need/want some medical intervention choosing the risky path is sometimes the only path.

This has to be a fairly lucky day for me. So I was rolling and this happened. Got 9993 and missed one decimal increment in the next reward. Just "1" man, it was so a tight call, to be honest.

Anyways, I am happy that I rolled this number because it was like another whole year to get this much luck. Lolz.

Though on the other hand, we are always wanting to roll that 10000 number which is one in million odd for a guy like me who always rolls only the basic reward.

Has anyone got lucky today or recently who rolled $200 rewards? Please share and make the community motivated to free roll.

On top of this, I have accumulated 300+ spins now. However, I am waiting for them to reach 1000 spins. It ain't easy to hold but the party is on!

Nice hit! My highest was between 9994 and 9997, I hit that a few times over the years, but not lately... hitting 10000 is like a mission impossible. I also wonder how often people hit a $200 reward... maybe one or two users per month. Smiley

Good luck with accumulating WoF spins! I wish you even more luck when you decide to spin them... I guess you are waiting for Lambo (in 31 days) as I do, by that time I will have around 1500 WoF spins.

A $2 bet for $5,353 on the Punk Toilet slot by Nolimit City is the most interesting one! A few days ago I was buying bonuses on NoLimit and not even one went over x100! Most of them were around x10 and lower, I busted my amount in 10 minutes more or less. Smiley

IzMeRoller turned a $190 bet on Monopoly Live into a whopping $9,510 win, as well as a $155 bet that resulted in a $7,855 win. On Crazy Time, IzMeRoller won $6,698 on a $136 bet.

Well, I saw some pretty crazy wins on these live games! I guess this guy was pretty lucky with these big bets, I would never bet that big on Crazy time or Monopoly.

I like the "Weekly Recap" idea, it's interesting to see the biggest weekly winners and their bets.
1457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The fear of KYC requirements on: March 13, 2023, 08:24:15 AM
Have you ever seen a online casino website that displays, No kYC requirements or KYC requirement for **** amount of withdrawal before? And why won't any online casinos do something like this? I believe this is suppose to boost users and players confidence when they are about to try out new gambling platforms for the first time.

I believe this is still affecting online gambling platforms because this is one of the most common issues that online gamblers are still facing.   
yes, I've seen casinos that have this kind of rule on their ToS before(but I can't remember which ones). but before someone go and try out a casino with this rule, they should also know and put it in their mind that the casino can still ask you for your KYC even if you haven't reached X withdrawal amount.

I have seen it as well, and I think it's some new casino, but I can remember which one exactly and where I saw it, KYC for deposits/withdrawals over 2 BTC...

KYC shouldn't be an issue for fair players. I personally don't like it, and I avoid it whenever I can (whatever service it is) but if I have to pass it in order to use some service I really like, or I have some money stuck and KYC is a requirement, I will simply verify myself.

We can talk about rules, but rules can be bent for any reason and services usually reserve the right to do that in some "special cases"... small letters are the ones that are f. us.

Do you think AI will be more successful to get a working gambling strategy to win the house... and if they do, what will be the impact on casinos?

I don't think an AI like ChatGPT will be able to beat a gambling website that has a house edge.
In the long run, AI will get beaten by gambling websites with a house edge. I doubt AI will be successful at the job provided to it.

It's because casinos are using an even better version of AI! They can afford it... in the end (or beginning) it's all math! And AI is probably beating us in math...

I tried ChatGPT, just a few questions... I got very detailed answers, it stuck at some sex-related questions, which was funny! Smiley Anyway, I guess that with some right questions, ChatGPT can give "good answers". Of course, the question is how successful it can be. I guess everything over 60-70% would be great. I will not test it, but I believe some people will for sure...
