Martingale and all in, so i am broke now, damn I can't controll myself when i lost.
Martingale sucks dude so dont ever use that strategy. No matter how low your base bet is or how much balance you have. In the end you will lose all your capital. And I think only few are using that.
Whatever strategy you use if you going against the house , you'll ended to lose so it's worthless to use the strategy. But if someone is lucky they can gets lot of profit from there but the greedy habit is deadly habit if you choose martingale strategy.
But , the strategy is important in PvP games like Poker and your skill is important too for determine when to fold or raise the bet.
That's true, in a game where there is a house advantage we all lose in the long run if we will play gambling regularly, you cannot win under that situation so better play it for fun as any tricks and method will not work in the long run.
With your statement that will only prove that there are no method in gambling that would give us a winning in the long run, we are all bound to lose in the long run so it is better to enjoy our winnings in gambling even in a short period of time and just forget our loses.

Buy or develop your own time machine and go back to 2008 and mine BTC on the computer at your mothers house in the basement
go back to yesterday and buy a jackpot lottery ticket. You will win 10000000$ and get rich in a day. LOL that sounds hillarious
Let us be realistic here, we cannot go back to the past because if we can we might be all rich now.

Just face you current situation now and make sure you will have to work hard and grab every opportunity you can see because that would lead you to become rich, just always have patience because there are no shortcut to become rich.
1563  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: October 10, 2016, 05:30:00 AM
The main reason why i gamble is for profit at the same time to have fun also. I will not waste my time just to have fun only and not to profit because if i really want to have fun i can do it in many ways not just by gambling. I bet in sportsbet so i can have fun while betting on my favorite teams or players.

That's the reason to gamble, to profit and not just for fun..You will only think about fun if the game has end, if you win, all about gambling is fun, if you lose, atleast some part of it are amusing like chatting...  Sports betting would really mean excitement since most of the time you will bet to a sport that you really have an idea, that's where you could feel chill and somehow feel like you are the one on the field playing...  Cheesy
Maybe not all of us are into profit when we gamble but I must see that majority of the gamblers are into profit, however if you really want to enjoy gambling then it is just right to have a sole intention and that is only to have fun regardless if you are losing or not.
1564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: October 09, 2016, 06:32:34 AM
Cleveland Cavaliers vs Philadelphia 76ers also I am having same thought about this match. I would prefer -10.5 @2.60 for Cleveland cavaliers in this upcoming match of preseason. The margin of point isn't going to be lesser than previous game in my opinion. At least chances are very good with this option.
Your bet just lose, this is a no brainer game for me because the line is too low (-6.5) in favor of the cavaliers at home against a shitty team, this was a trap and you fall for it, I won the game actually but not on the point spread although sixers covered. I bet on the sixers total and hit it.
1565  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: October 09, 2016, 06:28:50 AM
i found my self broke because gambling
i found my life in a mess because gambling

but because gambling too suddenly rich, suddenly be a billionaire
because gambling too you know what it is the real have fun

how about you?

is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life?

It has the power to do both in your life. It can fix your life, not with winnings or money, but with the knowledge it gives. It can give you broad knowledge on calculating each steps in your life. You win in your bet or not, you still possess the knowledge it gives to carry on your life.

Well, on the other hand, it can completely ruin your life from any stage. Usually, ruining shits happen on blind beliefs that you generate within yourself that you're winner!

it more on the latter than the former dude. big winnings that would make you extremely rich are from gambling games such as lottery which doesn't really need knowledge but luck. massive amount of luck. so the chance of gambling a fix to your life is considerably small compared to how it can affect your family, friends and financial life.
But I do not see it that way because it cannot fix nor wreck my life, gambling is just an entertainment and it should not be part of our system. We play gambling to have fun and to be entertain out from the busy working life but it should be done occasionally only.

Not anymore, I had some bad experiences with some services where I use to spend Bitcoin regularly and after that I haven't find other trusted ones. So only only hodling as of now.
I think when you're afraid for using bitcoin, because there are a lot of fraudsters and scammers, you can use the escrow services to do business with someone, because you do not know is it they are reliable or not, so you can use the escrow, just for security alone
yes that is also good to use escrow, but to me if you want to invest and get some profit you have to take a step and without taking risk you cannot make any money either from investment and nor from trading.
Why he need an escrow if he only spending bitcoin? spending bitcoin is direct we do not need an escrow i think if you buy and sell bitcoin if person you did not know i think that is the time we need an escrow.
well i think it depends if the country or location that you're going to spend bitcoin actually accepts bitcoin. here unfortunately, bitcoin is not even widely known yet so it's not accepted. would like it though when time comes that i can use bitcoin, it would be very convenient for me
There is always our local exchange sites that can help us to do that, in my exchange site they have partnered with merchants to spend our bitcoins but I am not really interested in shopping online so I just cash out my bitcoins and directly go to the mall to buy things I need.
1567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: October 09, 2016, 06:21:35 AM
first things first,gambling itself is not a smart move,most or all gambling is luck based,in sports betting there is fifty percent chance that you win the bet if you carefully follow the sport,dice and roulette is sheer luck,there is no specific way and if someone knows the trick he will keep it for himself. Smiley
yeah , but in gambling your knowledge and trick will not work if you crossed your house edge profit in the gambling site . here it is important to mention and to know that every site has its house edge profit limit . if we get that profit then we should cashout our gambling btc .


True, and most of us are havig a hard to do that one because we are feeling the hype instead and gets more greedy so in the end we end up losing the  profits from the house instead

Most of gamblers  do  have these problems  when they are already experiencing winning streaks  or even   to hit jackpots they would  still keep on playing   instead of stopping  because as you said greediness would  push  or  pursue  you to bet even more  and aiming for more  profits but casinos are not charity that always  give  money thats why gamblers  losses on the long run. Theres no smart way on playing gambling.

Agree You will loose in the long run. It is not really advicesable if you play in the long run, dont play with greediness to earn more though you have earn a decent profit from it but you want more so that is the time yyou loose all of your profits. If you are in winning streak and earn a decent then its time to stop Cheesy
It is only good to play in the long run if you are a professional gambler and you are not playing in a gambling game that has a house edge. Some also succeed like in sports betting as there is no house edge and we can analyze the game before we put our bets.
1568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling. on: October 09, 2016, 06:18:22 AM
when you're hooked on gambling games, it will be very difficult for you to get out. however, there are some right way to get out of the game. The most important is to remember your family, the longer you get together with your family, then you will be to forget the game, besides replacing the hobby also is the right step. maybe that way you will slowly come out of gambling

well yeah there's the part that you need to have your family or people close to you for support. although mostly i think it would really boil down to how badly you want to quit or how strong your  resolve is in quitting. it's going to be really rough though in the beginning as your body and mind will be adjusting to not being able to gamble anymore
If you are successful in doing that then it is good, the fact that you want to quit in gambling it means that you do not love gambling anymore and you can do the sacrifice in order for you to turn into a change man, our family still matters to us in the end.
1569  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: October 09, 2016, 06:14:51 AM
When I needed money urgently I sell my collection of knives. Some of these are extremely expensive. I sell them to those who will appreciate and understand them in the sense

But when it comes to selling things its very hard to find a buyer instantly and as we need money desperately there is a full chance that we may compromise with the price and sell at lower price which will result in loss.

yeah it's not that easy unless you already have a lot of trusted connections who could either buy themselves or refer you to other people that would be interested in buying. but that's actually a good way of earning specially if you really need money. i'd have a hard time though if i was in your shoes to sell my collections :p
You cannot get faster fund when you are in urgent needs of money and just sell your collection of knives, I mean not all people are interested on that kind of collection, and you might find out that you are the only one who interest on collecting that.
1570  Economy / Economics / Re: I'm not gonna sell any coin. on: October 09, 2016, 06:11:06 AM
holdimg your bitcoin is the ultimate key for succession. it not only helps to tobget back your profit but also teach you to clam at very hyper points and i belive it helps in our life too so we can give some importance to our close one's too
Holding is good but only a certain limit that we can afford to lose, there is a big risk in holding for the future as we do not know if bitcoin will still continue to succeed, therefore it is just right to put a limited amount, enough to earn a decent income when bitcoin will be the mainstream currency.
1571  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: October 09, 2016, 06:07:32 AM
Selling everything is good but keep in mind that I would stay patient due to the fact that the bitcoin will got to a higher amount without any doubts.
There are also some events upcoming so..
which events by the way maybe i'm lack of information about bitcoin,but what make you saying that bitcoin will got a higher amount without any doubts? is there a reason? if none then it's just useless words by the way,even there's events doesn't guarantee bitcoin price will be going high just look at halving lately

No one can predict what price bitcoin will hold in future, either it can go higher or lower so the best thing is to sell your coins when you see higher price and allowing you to make profits.
yeah I think no one can be sure that bitcoin will have a higher price in the future, even no guarantee that bitcoin will have a high price, so take advantage of the best possible moment when bitcoin pump
Now is the opportunity to buy bitcoins if you are thinking of your future, the price is still cheap although we have a good increase this year. Be positive that we can see a bigger price and if you buy now there is a possibility that it will double your capital per year.
1572  Economy / Economics / Re: I have 12 BTC in my Account, How should I invest this?? on: October 09, 2016, 06:03:57 AM
There's so many question like this.
Anyway,You can do altcoin trading to increase your capital But for that you need to have good skills and knowledge.Many ways to invest your btc like you can do sports betting ig you have good knowledge about sports.
Sports betting and trading is the best method for your 12 bitcoin to invest, just be careful always, investing bitcoin has a big risks if you can not manage your bitcoin well it will be lose quickly.
Where did you ever think the greater risk of investing or gambling. both have big risk but I think gambling has greater risk, why did you choose the method that all of the way it has a big risk? I think you have to choose one course, it will reduce the risk
You can get a lesser risk in gambling if you are just an investor, that 12 is already a good amount of money to invest and that will already generate you a good income regularly, just diversify that investment and put it only in a reputable gambling sites.
1573  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: October 09, 2016, 05:58:20 AM
earlier i gave the simply openion about trading profit , when i was trading with small amount of bitcoin . but when i starts with bulk bitcoin trading , then i got a big loss of about 0.01btc/week about continuously for 6 days . so i think it is really a game of like gambling . and it is unpredictable job .
you should really pay attention to the price movement. never in a hurry. you have to have great patience. if trading of our control then we can also control the income every month we want to get.

Agree, paying attention  to the  price would  be  a  big help and you  must have  good observation and analytic skills  regarding with this  because if you  done it  correctly on which price you  buy  or sell  then  it would  assure you  to gain some profits. Trading is really an  unpredictable job and  we  cant  really predict future  but with the  help of some   preferences we could somehow  increase the chance of   making succesful trades.

I agree! in a short period of time the price of the coin will pump big then its time to sell and it will dumb big also which is the time to buy. Paying attention all the time is the best because sometimes it is really unpredictable you can missed a big profit from it. Really Trading is very unpredictable job to us
Therefore you really need a lot of time if you want to be a successful trader, monitoring the price is not that easy in order for you to get the right timing to buy an sell, that is why some of the traders are not successful in their journey because they lost focus.
1574  Economy / Economics / Re: When do you buy Bitcoin ? on: October 09, 2016, 05:54:05 AM
bitcoin prices currently showing gains. a very good thing for those who want to buy bitcoin.
because in bitcoin 2016 prediction would be increased significantly. I heard about the rumor
yes i also suggest to buy bitcoin in the present time, as it is expecting that the price of bitcoin is going to be increase so high in next few months so if some one interested he should buy bitcoin right now.
I think you can not force someone to buy bitcoin that moment, because every person must have a reason and a certain criteria before trying to purchase bitcoin, yeah bitcoin is growing even though you think everyone knows that, but of course they will be looking for the right time to buy
And it is not good to force them to buy bitcoin when they do not understand it very well, we can advise them but what matters is that they are also convince with their decision to buy bitcoins, we all know that it is a good investment in the long run but we do not want someone is blaming bitcoin for his wrong decision.
This is depending on the capacity of its person, more users of bitcoin has no investment they have bitcoin by just participating in signature campaign and they do not need to buy because they earn lot of bitcoin specially if they are a higher rank.
Well, lucky for them because they have the opportunity to earn, but my opinion is if you are not earning big working online that is still not enough to hold that for your future, so you will be force to buy if you want to have a bigger income in the future.
1575  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: WAVES. Ultimate crypto-tokens blockchain platform. on: October 09, 2016, 05:48:44 AM
Don't forget that Waves are currently on other exchanges as well. Not just Bittrex. A chinese exchange called 'Touzibi' is already listing it.
Don't think that no other chinese exchange will be adding WAVES. OHhhhh they will be adding once full node is out. Touzibi ain't gonna be the only one.
You can bet all those other exchanges with their own mother tongue, when they start listing WAVES..."poloniex is small fish".



WAVES all along have also been doing translations of every WAVES blog posts since post #1.
And they are being posted at various respective places on the net wherever said language is spoken.

Once Full Node + Custom Tokens/Assets are out, Sasha did say he will be going out to promote the hell out of it.
And with Custom Tokens/Assets, he will be able to promote LOTS: "Hey there everyone, we are WAVES....look what we got....INCENT, etc, etc, etc"

You or he can't do that with only just a Full Node release, yea? "Hey there everyone, we are WAVES...look what we got...a full node. That's it folks!"

 Cool

good post!
Good improvement, I hope this will continue so we all be happy here. Waves should surpass LISK now as we are a bigger and a stronger coins than LISK. Guys, let us support waves and do not sell yet, we might have a good increase this year.
1576  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick? on: October 09, 2016, 03:11:22 AM
My pick is bitcoin, but if I have a lot of money I want to pick bitcoin and gold
Gold is safe an investment than bitcoin and the bitcoin is good an investment to get a profit
Correct it is always depending on the capacity of the person, like if i can afford to invest in gold i do not hesitate to invest because i know that price of gold is not decreasing it always increasing and also i want to invest in bitcoin because it is more affordable than gold.
It should be through a procedure, you cannot invest in gold if you are not rich yet. With our current financial status now and most of us here are not rich, bitcoin is always a better choice of investment and we should start now while it is not yet progressive so when it succeeds more in the future, we will earn big profits.
1577  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 09, 2016, 03:05:51 AM
Are you inspired by those bitcoin millionaires? Are you thinking of filing a resignation letter on your day job (if you have any) and focus on bitcoin instead?

Me? I do have a day job and I consider bitcoin as my side job. I don't want to lose that another source of income just because bitcoin is awesome.

I will find a way to earn more from bitcoin, I will quit my day job.
But now I think it's really riscky for me.
that's indeed very risky especially if you don't experienced on bitcoin,don't have any business and you just quitting your job for the sake of bitcoin and trying with only confidence and don't thinking about it twice,there's no guarantee you can make bitcoin and fulfill your daily needs though
This, but I will also add that if you quit your job you don’t know when you will get another one and what pay you will get, in my country if you lose your job, you will need to look for months to find a new one.

That's true same is the scenario in my country, first  of all its very hard to find job and if you get a job then you need to compromise in salary and if you quit that job and  there is gap in your carrier then no new company will entertain you.
Yeah, it is a shame that things are like that but I cannot change it and things are even worst as you get older because no one wants to hire you because of your age.

Yeah every company prefers to hire fresh blood who are more energetic and hard working and it will be really difficult for you to find a job at an elder age and even if you get the job you won't work with the same energy.

That the sad truth, companies prefers young professionals to hire than older ones but there are really instances that the older ones with high experiences in relation to the position the latter is applying will be hired preferably than the young one that has less to no experience at all. If I am the company hiring, I will not focus on the age or experiences, I'll focus on the attitude of the applicant.
It always consider the experience more experience it will has huge amount of salary unlike the fresh graduate applicant they will accept how much salary you give and also it is good to promote the old employee in your company than hiring some oldies with higher position as starting.
That's how it works in the real world, so if you are fresh graduate you only have a little chance to earn decent salary, the good thing is that bitcoin is here as we can work without considering our age, as long as we can deliver our  employer will pay us better or based on the agreed amount of salary.
1578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: October 09, 2016, 03:01:57 AM
I will suggest to stay away from gambling either as investor or as player. Gambling is where everyone keep traveling in circle and never reaches no where in the end as you are walking in circle and there is no destination. It is hope what keeps the people intact to do so. Investment in real life project which have scope of growing is good and right way of becoming rich or turning your money into huge over the time.
There are risks in every money making schemes, i think investing in gambling site is safer/less risky on the long run. (everyone have their own point of view)

It not that all casinos are well trusted and your money is safe so you should invest money only on well-trusted casinos and consider to diversify your money by investing on few good casinos instead on just one or two. This way you can reduce your loses in worst cases like if anyone wins big amount from any one casino or casino closed down suddenly.
Diversifying your investment is really necessary especially when you are investing in a high risk investment, investing in an online casino is good as they win most of the time, however there is no security with your investment if the casino will choose to scam its investor, that is the weakness and high risk I have identified here.
1579  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: October 09, 2016, 02:50:34 AM
as only a suggestion i will say saving money is the best option for everyone as it will not only satisfy a bigger demand but also can be used to fulfull an emergency need but we usually invest that money too so that is not stoppable but it is controlable so try to save a percent of your money

just saving money is not good options. Its a better to invest some of money to get profit
dont invest all your money is not good too.

That is true, with saving alone you will not experience a good future if you want to live a comfortable life, money is subject for inflation therefore it is just right to find ways to grow your money and the best way to do it is by investing your money in different investment opportunity in the crypto world.
1580  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling made for kids???? on: October 09, 2016, 01:49:15 AM
If you ask me gambling is not made for kids because it can end up being a bad habit for them so I think that it is better fro them to avoid it.
Let them focus on school so that they can learn how to manage money and not spend it.
Yeah it is dangerous to them to be addicted in gambling because they have no jobs..  unlike we are we have own jobs to live to have salary unlike kids that should always in school to have a good job in the future.

But it is hard nowadays, especially after many online gambling sites popping up, to avoid kids to do gamble. It's parents job to keep their children away from such activity. I myself as a parent tend to prevent my son and my daugther to access internet. I never give them gadget that can be used to access internet untill their ages reach 18. Frankly, gambling will make kids lazy and can forget their main task, study study and study!
Although the term not let kids to playing gambling but in fact not like that, we can easy to find kids play online gambling. the term under 18 year olds will not get access to play gambling is only force on casino.
In many online casinos there is KYC Know your costumer and you need to verify your identity after a certain time of using their services if you don’t you cannot make withdrawals and eventually your account could be limited or banned.
We know that therefore we are not playing in that kind of casino, if kids are smarter they can play in a bitcoin gambling sites where they can bet a minimum amount, bitcoin really makes the gambling industry more profitable as the restrictions in gambling are already gone.
