1521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you use a VPN on a casino, even if it is not allowed in their ToS? on: June 19, 2023, 02:34:44 AM
~snip~
I don't understand why you can't use a VPN. Casinos should be commended that they can have the option for people to log into their site, so those things are what they should accept, a casino is interested in people and money, nothing else, play that they spend money, that people have fun. , whether they win or lose, that is why I often do not understand why some do not accept the use of VPN, those who do allow the use of VPN I congratulate them.

In online casinos that are Crypto in nature, they should not put these inconveniences, as I said before, they are interested in people entering to play games, and if they win, then they should be paid, not that they say: "as they entered with VPN they did not We will pay" I mean, for God's sake, this is shameless use, but if instead of winning the player loses and then complains, does the casino refund the money they lost? obviously not, then these things must be seen from every point of view to be fairer..


It's not because casinos want to ban vpns, it's basically because different countries have different gambling rules, and the casino is not allowed to serve people from specific countries, where it is illegal to do so.

So, they check their IP to establish the country, and with a VPN that check is useless, so they have to ban VPNs then.

Obviously the casinos in general would be happy to accept anyone from anywhere, but the laws prohibit that.

Yes I tried to do it carefully I don't want to be stuck when I get wins, if I continue to force myself to get more winning then the risk will definitely lose again
As gamblers we already know when to stop, the longer playing means the greater the chance to lose.

Yeah, that's the harsh truth. The more a gambler plays, the more probable it is that their money will be gone. That's in the long term.

In the short term, there's always the chance to be ahead and quit forever, although that is extremely rare.
1523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: June 18, 2023, 06:09:01 AM
But I don't think AI technology has yet reached that stage and is still being developed, so we are still looking for more information or there is already technology that can provide accurate predictions about matches. Indeed, using AI can provide a higher percentage because calculations from AI can be more accurate than we do, but we should not make decisions based solely on information from AI. But if we talk about the luck we can get, AI is having trouble knowing when that luck is coming.
Casinos most likely have it, or at least their odds providers do so, after all with the huge amount of events and bets they offer it is impossible this is calculated by humans so some sort of AI must be able to do this, which is why some professional gamblers have noticed that is getting harder and harder to beat the casinos as the algorithms behind their AI is improving every single day.

Still if at some point that technology fell on the hands of gamblers they could fight fire with fire and find more easily odds in which the AI could have made a mistake.

Yeah, well, these odds are calculated to give the casino some advantage. It doesn't matter how exact they are and that it sometimes is wrong, because in the long term after winning and losing a few times the casino will still won because there is always a better odd for them

It can be frustrating when luck doesn't seem to be on our side, but remember, it's all part of the unpredictable nature of slot machines.

When playing slot, you have to embrace the results it may comes out with since it's more of being lucky on soot unlike those who believed they manipulates results, but yet despite that, some still have the opportunity to win whenever they gambles on slot, this is a strict indication that we have to understand the way some games in gambling operates in other for us to have the best experience in playing them.

Well, at the end of the day, slots are quite predictable, they will give the casino more money than what it gives to you in the long term, with winning and loaing in between.

They are designed so that it seems like you might win big at any time, but it is all just an illusion for you to put more money in
1525  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: June 18, 2023, 06:03:15 AM
The fact that you are the ones or held responsible with your action, no one really forces you to make a deposit on a certain platform on which you do really blame up someone on the time that you would really be on losing side or condition. You would really be making yourself that laughable into others eyes on the time that you would really be making out such act. Blaming out someone for your losses? What for?
Just like on what we are saying here on most people that you are the ones who should really be blamed and not other person because if you do then you would surely be making out some
argumentation in between that person.

Play according into your own risk taking and only spend up on the money which you can afford to lose so that you wouldn't really be ending up on regretting on the time that you would be losing money.
Gambling does have high chance on losing than on winning specially if you arent that lucky enough.

You are absolutely right, the thing is that when people win they forget about anyone else, and when they lose they start blaming everyone else except themselves, and that doesn't brong anything good to them.

The best way to deal with this is what you are saying, take full responsibility of everything. And the thing is that thw odds are against you, so you better be prepared to lose.
1526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I am only trying to stay safe by gambling less on: June 18, 2023, 05:51:59 AM
Even if you gamble less, you are going to be spending all the money, the only way to not lose is to never play
1527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can i make 100 $ daily from online casinos on: June 18, 2023, 05:50:40 AM

What happens is that to earn 100 usd a day is something that you can as long as you have a capital of at least 300,000 usd or something like that that you can bet on and you can get to that money quickly, the whales if I could believe them that they earn that, but to an ordinary person like everyone, who has a Medium to low Balance , it is very difficult, I Personally do not think so , but if they do it every day I Imagine that it must last many hours trying something like that , so this type of work that is Dependent on a casino playing , I do not see it Viable.


Even with that amount you won't get $100 a day, because the odds are the ones that define if you win or not, and that is defined to make the casino the winner in the long term

Win the jackpot and then become filthy rich, the mind of a person who continues to gamble without caring about how much he spends while gambling. Trying to hit the jackpot but in reality he just throws all his money away and is enjoyed by the casino dealer. No one will ever get really rich on slots, those who do get lucky are only a few and look at how many people are frustrated by losing it all. Maybe 1000:1 can get the Jackpot.

It is crazy to think how hard it is to actually win the jackpot, and that almost all the people that win the jackpot end up losing it all over a few years.

It seems that the mentality that some gamblers have is to basically waste money instead of earn more, so it doesn't really matter how much you have at the moment, many gamblers will lose it all eventually, even if they win big at some point.

Crazy really.

You will found out that every gambling addicted individuals will always loose control of himself and end lacking the perfect direction to how they should live or handle their personal lives, such ends up in hunger because they have no money left to feed themselves with neither do they have any quality source of income that they are serious with and giving them source of income, which means it will do much of harm than good if we are gambling addicted.

That's common in many addictions, but it's specially true in gambling, because you can lose so much money in such a short amount of time.

The thing is that it's an order of magnitude more expensive than any other addictions, because you physically cannot consume/use that much of the drug/addiction in a day, whereas with gambling you can lose all your money in a single day.

It isn't really matter of public what they think, even if he would be guilty in one of the 37 felony counts Trump got would technically get jail time. I am not certain if he would do the time in reality, but if he is, he is going to have to campaign from prison. These are federal charges and seriousness of these charges are totally on a different level then other charges trump has faced.

No lawyer even wants to represent him as they know it's not a winning case, but total nightmare. I would say that it would be easy money to bet on democrats if republicans can't get their act together.

It is quite crazy to think that it might be the case that the US can elect a president from jail.

I mean, I don't think you can even vote if you have been in jail, yet apparently you can be the president.

In fact, I think that both Messi and Ronaldo have the same technical level, the problem is that Ronaldo was going through a very bad phase at that moment with Manchester United for different reasons, not because he was actually playing badly.
Portugal's disqualification in the quarterfinals left Ronaldo with an even greater "weight" on his conscience.

I believe that Ronaldo has already recovered from this bad phase and if he plays in the next world cup... I hope he accepts it and that Portugal qualifies, I believe that we will still be able to see Cristiano Ronaldo in his full form and as one of the favorite players .

I think Messi is superior to Ronaldo, but they are very close.

And the thing is that both should actually retire since they are way past their prime already, and they should give the opportunity to the next generation.

I mean, they both can simply appear on ads and they will make more money than actually playing

Even the Ponzi scheme does not guarantee a steady $100 daily income this is because the Bible will boost the next day so in Ponzi nothing to rely on,  I don't think anything aside from setting up a business that is the only way to guarantee steady inflow of cash,  gambling shouldn't be taken as a way of making daily income rather gambling should be based on fun and nothing more than that.

A lot of people are having misconceptions about it and at that, they end up in constant loss and possibly becoming addicted all in the quest to meet up with the set target or demand.

There are a few different ways to earn $100 daily, but they all have in common that you have to give some kind of value to the people paying it.

You could provide a service, or sell digital courses, drawings, apps, whatever really. As long as you provide value consistently, people will be happy to pay for it.

That's what casinos do actually, they consistently provide the service of making gamblers feel like they can become millionaires, so gamblers keep paying for it.

Even I thought that Ron DeSantis had a good chance of winning the GOP nomination in 2024. But he floundered his chances. He couldn't garner courage to attack Trump, and then he delayed announcing his candidature for too long. And when finally he announced his candidacy, it got botched up due to some technical issues in Twitter. Also, momentum swung in favor of Trump due to the ongoing criminal proceedings. DeSantis's candidacy was dead even before it was launched. Unless there is going to be some miracle in the next few months, I would advise him to drop out of the race.

I've seen quite a few photos of DeSantis flags next to literal nazi flags, I'm not sure why they're becoming so popular in the US, but if anything, it's not a sign of a peaceful time to come next year.

Messi will get a lucrative contract with Inter Miami and there is no doubt regrading that. But no matter how lucrative it is, the new contract will be nowhere near the one that Al Hilal was offering. They were willing to pay up to $1.2 billion for just two years. Initially I thought that Messi rejected the offer from Saudis because he wanted to move to Barca. But then that was also not the case. If that was the excuse, then Messi would have said that he wanted to stay in Europe since the quality of competition is quite high. But with MLS there is no such excuse. The quality is even worse compared to the Saudi Professional League.

It seems that most sports are being bought by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc. There seems to be a focused investment in sports from those countries.

Not sure what's up, but these players and lots of people around them are getting a huge amount of money.
1535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: June 13, 2023, 05:37:22 AM
Gambling addicts will stop at nothing unless the gamble to quench hunger for it temporary, gambling is one of the most addictive activity that has ever existed, people can do anything as far as gambling is concerned it is important to understand that gambling affect some persons to the extent that the can do without it.

Gambling is a really powerful addiction, and extremely expensive when it goes wrong.

The thing is that it doesn't get the same attention as other addictions like heroin, alcohol, tobacco, etc, but it's probably even worse.

Unfortunately that is the harsh reality.Even gamblers who have got their maximum prize like x100.000 or higher jackpot wins they say that in total they are on the red because of them playing in a continuous way.If anyone plays every day then it is impossible to not lose on slot machines because they have been programmed to take people money but in a slow way,they don't get all your money in the fastest way possible,they keep you playing deceiving you that now you may got a win and then all of a sudden you see yourself in red and 0 balance.

Yeah, and also the fact that gamblers usually won't share any of their losses, they simply forget about them, but every time they win, they will broadcast to everyone, so that they look good.

In the end, it's kinda like paying for a service, gamblers are paying for the ability to brag that they won in certain occasions. The truth is that they also lost, but people don't have to know that.
1537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: June 13, 2023, 05:33:37 AM

See, You said it yourself, it can be useful. As for predicting outcomes of the things that are going to occur in future, you can ask "How to cook a tasty cheap soup?", and AI will provide you with a recipe, and it's kinda prediction of the future, innit? It's basically saying "Do this and this and you'll get a tasty soup in the future". In sports betting it could be "Bet on this and this, and you'll be in profit in the future." Of course, it's never guaranteed. You can be allergic to some ingredients in the recipe, or you might just don't like the taste, same as your profit might be negative after following AI's advice in sports betting, but we can try several times and see whether we want its help or not. AI has been doing well so far in many fields.

Well, the thing is that it's different when you use an AI to create a plan for you, like a recipe, etc, compared to betting.

When betting, the odds are always against you. The chances of a team winning are calculated, and then the casinos add some odds in their favor.

In a simplistic example, imagine a coin toss bet. The AI calculates that it is more probable that it lands on tail right now, but the thing is that the odds are not 50/50, they are slightly on the casino's side. So, say, if you win, you don't win 1, but win 0.8 or whatever. So, in the long term, you will win some, lose some, but overall, the casino will end up winning.
1538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you use a VPN on a casino, even if it is not allowed in their ToS? on: June 12, 2023, 05:07:16 AM
I don't think big gambling sites are going to check whether a player has used a VPN or not. That doesn't matter for the use of the site, does it? There are several reasons why a player can use a VPN. And there is another element underlying that, if someone uses a VPN for privacy, that is a different reason than someone using a VPN because they are located in a country where gambling is prohibited. Then you should combine this with strict KYC protocols. It remains a dangerous business to use KYC.

The thing is that gambling is illegal in some jurisdictions, and they check the IP in order to comply with that.

Maybe visiting would be OK, but making the payment would receive more checks, and they would be actually able to refuse payment to a country where it is illegal for them to provide gambling services, otherwise they might face issues.

Sounds like a fantasy but I'm pretty sure that in the next World Cup we'll probably see both Messi and Ronaldo - even if they are mostly benched and all their playing time is limited to group games (which will obviously be easy). They are huge brands and I think even the organizers will push the leadership of the national teams to see them at another World Cup.
As for the "strongest team in the world - England" it's probably a joke  Roll Eyes

The only place where we'll see Messi and Ronaldo will be at an ad while waiting for the game to start. Just like we saw Pirlo in Qatar

Ron DeSantis is still referring to the Ukraine-Russia war as a "territorial dispute". That's one big mistake of his that I can see, but it's very likely that there are more. American people support Ukraine in their majority, and they want Ukraine to succeed in its war against Russia, meaning, taking its territories back. Nikki Haley, a member of the Republican Party, criticizing DeSantis for his stance on the matter, may start getting more sympathy from Republicans in the future, so I place a small bet on her while the odds are still pretty good



So how is it going to be?, are they going to have a pre-election for Trump vs De Santis?, or are they going to run both for president at the same time against Biden?

Are they both representing the republican candidate?
