well i don't think gambling itself is the problem here but being addicted to it is. gambling is a form of entertainment where you can also earn for fun. though the possibility of losing is bigger than gaining, you don't have to lose much if you know how to regulate yourself when betting. so i think it's being excessive that's causing problems with gamblers not gambling itself

You are right, gambling is a business and it is one of the big industry in the world. The addiction itself is making problem or the gambler itself.

If you don't know what to set your first priority then you are making gambling on that place then you are going to have problem at it.

Just to discipline yourself and be responsible for sure you are not going to have problem with gambling.
Gambling is a business for the gambling house owner not for the gamblers. (Many gamblers never understand this nor accept this).
Addiction to gamble more is the key point for a gambler to keep their business to be successful regardless of the status and satisfactory level of gamblers.

Discipline is big weapon against gambling problems, but no gambling house owner likes it but pathetically no gambler is perfect with hia ability to follow his predetermined disciplines.

Well, gambling is big business for mostly people who get profits there, even for the players. But, as we know more people lose than win because gambling designed like that, so mostly people consider it just game for fun whether to win or lose. The problem is if we lose so much and keep trying to win but nothing to get, so you need to set some amount when you have to stop if you lose and lose.

Bitcoin gambling is better than any other type because of the low amount you can play with. On Dice games, I can play with 1 satoshi. There's no other casino accepting that small amount except the ones for Bitcoin. Also, it's fast and secure. But USD gambling is far more popular and played than BTC is.

Yup, its very fast and totally anonimous. No need for identifications and shit. There are some flaws but its okay. This is the best ever created. Bitcoin is recommended by gamblers coz its very fast. Its not only for gambling, many companies like online shop and others are already created. For me, bitcoin is the best

That's true, in bitcoin we do not need to divulge our real information before we are allowed to gamble which makes it very convenient for us to gamble anytime. It is exploding because majority of the gambling sites offers also investment program and for the gamblers they have more opportunity to gamble due to the lowest minimum amount of wagered required to gamble.

Yeah, as we can see bitcoin gambling is exploding, of course its because the benefits offered. Gambling site become more creative and interesting to try. Players like the rules offered by site; anonymous, could play with small amount, fast transaction, and various options to play makes gambling easier to do.
1543  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin really unbreakable? on: August 23, 2016, 03:34:59 PM
I think bitcoin is now really unbreakable, it has got a firmed base in global market and each day one after another company adopt it for their business especially online business which are adopting bitcoin much faster, and in return giving a more strength to bitcoin and its community.

That is true about bitcoin it is now a strong cypto currency and it is going to build better business transactions in the future. And if more investors are going to trust it then for sure they are going to rely on it. Not just investors but big companies like gaming platform companies then that is going to have big impact with bitcoin.
I agree that bitcoin got firmed base in global market and it adopted by gaming platform makes it so unbreakable.
As we can see that bitcoin keep growing year after year and the price rise and fall but get more tough, as long as bitcoin used worldwide and more famous it's really unbreakable.

In Europe there is a hot new pertaining to a company whose going to introduce paying bitcoins to their employees. But given the instability of the bitcoins market value is it an advantage for the employees or an disadvantage. In my opinion this kind of payment for salary is not yet beneficial to employees not until bitcoins price has become stabled. Though if bitcoin will start to increase its monetary value it can be advantageuos but if not then it is a peril to the employees. So what do you think, what is your opinion on this matter?
For now I think it can be, even if the price rise or fall, because there will be some adjustments to the salary according to the current currency of the country. But, bitcoin should be so famous there and many stores accepted bitcoin.
1545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When gamble small amount i win and when i gamble big i loose. on: August 17, 2016, 08:02:53 PM
That thing happens to me very often whether i am gambling in dice sites or i am having sports betting in soccer,basketball or cricket.
I am gambling since 2 years and that thing mostly happens with me dont know i am unlucky or there is some reason behind this.
Is this happens with you also? Can u figure out what is the reason behind this ?

I suggest you, you should play only small amount in gambling, because in this way, as you said you will win, so better is that always play with small amount, why you need to take a big risk. In fact we play gambling, because we want to earn money, and nothing for big or small amount, so let play gambling with your small amount and always win.
It doesn't happen just like that, small bet and always win, so funny. Gambling about chance, with or without some skill element.
You might just unlucky in dice sites, but I know there are more good chances in sports betting that need knowledge and analyzes, good luck.
1546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 17, 2016, 05:39:27 PM
If out there have an investment that safe and have huge interest i will invest it for sure, but i don't find one until now. So, i prefer to gambling for now.

Lol yeah I think today most investment sites are Ponzi and they will be hyip scam and you will lose your money and you will be in pain when they become scam. yeah I'm the better gamble. the risk will be clearer and it will give you instant income. ponzi risk may be the same with gambling
There are only like 6-7 legit gambling sites which take investments, i know it's risky to invest so is gambling but if you're in for the long-run you should invest instead of gambling.
Well i dont recommend it for those newbie better because its risky but for those gambler and they want to get  a profit investing that we dont know if you will make a profit..  honestly i never tried to invest there because its risky.
Gambling or invest have risks, but gambling more risky than investment of course, there are some sites that allow you to be a bankroll and get nice profits there. There is thread on this forum discuss about being a bankroll and its profits, since the house get more win than players.
1547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: August 17, 2016, 05:18:42 PM
Gambling is risky game of money from which most people lose and just a few wins. Gambling too is addictive and fun especially when you're winning and that's why most people can't get away from gambling once they get in it.
In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

it is not a sickness for sure, in my opinion people should be able to do whatever they want with their money they earn so they can freely gamble if they want

Ok i agree, people can do whatever that want with their money but Gambling is a sickness in such a way that if you want to quit gambling some time later in life its hard to do so.

Gambling is a sickness only for those people who are addicted gamblers, because they have waste their whole amount in it, and also their life become hard for them because of sickness of gambling, but i think if we play gambling for fun or entertainment so definitely gambling is not sickness for us.

Gambling could considered as a sickness for people who get addicted of it. I agree that who play any kind of gambling for fun and not so seriously doesn't feel that way, its just entertaining for them. But basically, gambling made people loss and could ruin their life. Just don't do it in the first place.
1548  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: August 17, 2016, 04:24:46 PM
bank and bitcoin wallet have their own importance and value. we cannot ignore the importance of both wallet and banks.

we can ignore bitcoin but we can't life without bank in this time. im bussines and i need bank everyday for buying something or paying anything, because bitcoin can't cover it.

I agree, we can't ignore banks because it is really important and the people are into banks. But if we are going to think outside the box and being a wise man. We are going to choose both, and since we are into bitcoin industry of course bitcoin wallets are going to be important too unless the banks are going to accept bitcoin too.

bitcoin will continue to grow. view statistics now I am quite confident in the future bitcoin could have the same features with the BANK.
bitcoin provide services and features that are far better than the current BANK.
some services in BANK even already available today in Bitcoin.


That's true but till the point where we are not able to spend it directly we need banks too, as of now we need to transfer our bitcoins to bank account first if we want to spend our coins.
True we need bitcoin wallet and bank. We need bitcoin for investment and we need the bank to save money securely. Although we get a lot of bitcoin but I think it needs to be transferred to a bank account because we still need money and still a little shop that uses bitcoin payment so it is still difficult to use.
yes, we need both of them, whether bitcoin wallet and banks have their own roles to the financial managing. Of course we can savings money on banks more safely but bitcoin wallet has advantages due to its anonymous and fast transaction worldwide.
1549  Economy / Economics / Re: How good are you at managing your money on: August 17, 2016, 12:32:48 PM
honestly I was the one who was not good at managing finances. however I feel happy, because I can still manage the expenditure to be less than income. it helps me save a little money to save each month.

im not too good about it still, i sometimes dont manage to make enough money for the things i want to buy though im still learning

I think there are some rules about financial managing.

1. Never depend on single income, make some investment to create second source
2. Buy things that you need, not what you want
3. Save your money first, and spending what is left after saving
4. Don't take risk with all you've got.
5. Do not put all eggs in one basket

It back to our self, where to spend or save the money. Usually for they're at 20+, thinking about the future and managing it properly. But everyone is different in their way to managing money, so make planning and priorities of your life.
1550  Economy / Gambling / Re: AVOID SAFE DICE, WON 25BTC THERE AND THEY COULDNT PAY OUT on: August 17, 2016, 04:51:00 AM
Well prove first that you have won 25 bitcoin and show some strong proofs so that we are going to believe what you are saying.

Attacking a gambling site is really not a good thing to do or maybe you have lose 25 bitcoin instead of winning?

Don't let the people bash you here if you don't have reliable proof.

He keep claiming that he has no time to go and post screenshot. But the funny thing is that he keep appear online and keep replying to other people. He even go as far as telling people that they are not high rollers so they dont have right for him to reply to them.
Thread just for high rollers? hope your problem can be solve immediately. It doesn't need much effort and time just to show your evidence, so we could stay away from the site that couldn't pay out.
1551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: August 16, 2016, 03:58:53 PM
For the long run, i think gambling can't really be profitable way, because it's depending in the luck mainly and it's not guaranteed income

Who the hell will think that one can make income thru gambling. The right term for that is profit but of course it is not for a long term but you can take a profit everytime you do a bet. It's possible. Just don't chase the loss.

More people get loss instead of win, that's how gambling works. There are some people who makes good profits by doing gambling for sure. But not in long term, it just sometimes and you need some skills, knowledge and experiences, don't play game depends on luck. Poker, blackjack or sports betting are good to makes some profits. Of course gambling so risky, you just need to learn it and be ready whether to lose or to win it.
1552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Didn't know I can loss all without winning anything on: August 16, 2016, 01:44:37 PM
You really think that playing Dice would have given a better outcome?
I hate to disagree but that's not true because the maths is never on our side and that is why the house always wins. The casinos are built like that.
Henceforth make sure you gamble with that money that you are willing to lose and don't get fooled by casinos Cheesy

In Dice game, one can win only if they are lucky otherwise, they will surely lose whether they got a huge bankroll or little. It is tough to calculate or guess the outcome of dice so you can rely only on luck and luck will come only sometimes. It is good to play dice occasionally than playing every day to reduce our losses.

when you play types of gambling that based purely on chance likes dice or roulette, never expect to win. It designed to make you lose again and again, the chance like 1000:1 to get jackpot. If you want play gambling game, choose kind of game that need some skills and experiences likes poker or sports betting.

get hacked in 1 exchanger but it is my fault because i set same password on all account and not set 2fa, but now i already made new account on exchangers and set 2fa so i hope my account is safe
Same thing happen to me, someone ever hacked my wallet through email, I don't know, it just happened that way.
So I just let it gone and set my account more safely, set second password and not put all eggs in one basket.
1554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ALL IN!!?? on: August 16, 2016, 06:09:49 AM
Ever go all in  Shocked  and have a positive result?
Yep already use all in strategy but high chance of winning and I playin dice game. 89% winning chance I roll 3 times and then after I widraw my winnings . That's strategy is risky if your not lucky in roll you will lost all in just one roll.
That is always true, the amount of your winning is very low compared to what you risk, so you should win the three rolls in dice otherwise you will have a big lose, shit happens sometime actually and even if you set the winning percentage to that level losing streak could be possible.
Of course, I ever all in and get positive results, it's my pleasure to win in gambling that need some skills and experiences.
I do not expect to win by play some kind of gambling depends on luck like dice game, it's so risky to loss more than you can win since the game arranged for us to lose.
1555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: August 16, 2016, 05:06:04 AM
To play gambling in a smart way you have to don't spend a lot of money there, don't gamble with more than you afford to lose, and minimize your daily bets to minimize the risks as well.

Personally i don't think any smart way to play gambling, but you have point in your opinion, we should play gambling which we can afford it easily, otherwise if we bet a big amount and suddenly we lose so how can we pay it if we can't afford that amount, so simply its mean our life has been destroy by gambling. it is only one point which i always remember whenever i start gambling.  
The smart way to gambling, you have to choose wisely what kind of gambling to play. Learning it and try with small amount in order to get some experiences first. Do not play types of gambling that depends on luck likes lotteries and roulette, but some kind of gambling that need skill and knowledge likes poker, blackjack and sports betting. Be ready to win it or lose, because gambling so risky.
1556  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 15, 2016, 06:26:50 AM

yes it is true that saving bitcoin is just like investment. you must consider also the bitcoin dump because it can possibly happen unlike fiat your savings is secure. If your savings is for future plan. you must be consider too the negative side of bitcoin because anytime it can be collapse.. just choose the most safe if that savings is for future. don't risk it here.
This is the best investment so far as we can easily make money with this in the future if there will be more people who will use bitcoins, now is just a gamble but it is better than gambling alone as you have a basis of what will possibly happen in the future.
Save money in the banks more savety but you could get lose some due to banks regulation and inflation.
Investing bitcoin online on real estate or maybe gold are good as long term investment, but do some research on real estate you want to invest, are they trusted and responsible, so you're not suffer a financial loss.
1557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 15, 2016, 05:23:31 AM
Trying to block any of the gambling sites would be the best way and force your computer to not allow you to go on these sites on any circumstances. These is probably the best ways as it will completely stop you from EVER getting on these sites. I think there are a couple add-ons for chrome and other things that would completely stop you.


Try em and good luck!

That's a good idea to stay away from gambling, but only block gambling sites to stop you play it,
to stay away from gambling back to the reason and your determination that you already loss more than you can afford. Try to tell your friend or family to always remind about disadvantages of gambling.
1558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling Investments on: August 15, 2016, 12:41:29 AM
Unless those casino's go bankrupt or if they decide to pull a gox trick on their customers, you are safe with them. You will make guaranteed profits. Because, the house always wins. 1 year more than enough to collect your investments.

What are you talking about ? What guaranteed profits ? There is no such thing! The most likely scenario is that part of the sites will go #404, and other
will be in borderline positive value. Investing in gambling sites is plain stupid in my opinion.

haha risky as hell - I agree! You would have to assume at least 1 of those sites won't be around year end. History has been brutal to bitcoin bankroll investors in the past.

If you see profits as it, make interested in participating and invest as bankroll. It risky of course but some sites can double their benefits and we get advantages too. Just make sure the sites are trusted historically and how their works, not parts of sites go #404, haha
1559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does Skill Work? on: August 14, 2016, 05:44:15 PM
I was seeing this Section and saw many people saying that your Skill Work mostly in Gambling, Yes There are a few types of games where skill can also play some role, but in most games, skill plays absolutely no role. . Independence of events, Randomness and House Advantages are the most important concept in the gambling that one Should have Knowledge when you are gambling.

Let’s look at where skill does, and doesn’t, come into play.

Games Based Purely on Chance
(No Skill element)

1. Lotteries
2. Scratch tickets & break-opens
3. Spinning reel games on slots and VLTs
4. Roulette
5. Mini-baccarat
6. Craps
7. Keno
8. Raffles
9. Dice

The results of these games are produced purely by chance – skill plays absolutely no role. There is nothing players can do to become “better” at these games. Each result is chosen by a random generating device, such as a roulette wheel or a random number generator on a VLT, and each result is completely independent from all the other bets.

Games Based Mostly on Chance
(Some Skill element)

Most of the games that fall into this category are card or sports-based games:

1. Blackjack
2. Pai Gow poker
3. Casino-based poker games (3 card poker, Caribbean stud, Texas hold ‘em bonus, etc.)
4. Sport Select®
5. Sports pools
6. Horse racing
7. P2P

In these games, there is some room for players to apply their skill. While skillful players may be able to keep their cost of play to a minimum, the gambling operator will still always have a house advantage.

The reason that skill can play a role in these games is that players must make decisions that can affect the outcome. Players who make bad decisions will win less often than players who consistently make good decisions.  You can read More here

Yes Skill Works , I apply my skills when i am playing poker but in a poker where players vs players , Even with a bad cards you can win a hand by using your skill. Sometimes when i am already losing and i just want to leave even with a bad card i just bluff and sometimes i win the hand.

It's depending on what kind of gambling that you choose to play, just like you had mentioned above.
For gambling, skill not mostly works but knowledge, experience, skill and luck that matter to win the game.
If want profit choose that you good at, not only depend on luck.
1560  Other / Archival / Re: Do you use bitcoin as currency or investment? on: August 12, 2016, 10:11:30 AM
It is more on investment now due to lack of either physical or online stores that accept bitcoin. On the other hand, here in our country we are already using BTC as currency through paying bills and mobile load recharge, so it is really big help for us.

Yeah it can be treated both ways, spend it if you are able to and if not then simply save it for the future as bitcoin will be more developed in future allowing us to spend anywhere we want.

Me either, I'm doing the same thing with bitcoin as a currency and as a investment. Because I'm enjoying the service of bitcoin daily with it conveniently by paying the services that I'm availing online and paying them by means of bitcoin. And the product or service that I'm enjoying is also an investment for me.

That's the advantages of bitcoin, I also use btc as currency and Investment.
Nowadays many stores  and services that accept bitcoin, so it makes easier for us to online transaction without having to leave home.
Savings bitcoin  also an investment, because the high exchange rate and the prices continues to rise.
