161  Economy / Gambling / Re: Does anyone find the spate of online casinos a bit uninspired? on: February 21, 2024, 04:43:04 AM
I've seen someone play a casino game on a particular casino for hours and won nothing, he then shifted to another casino and started playing same game, and under a hour, he won a jackpot.
Wow, that's something really amazing that I'm hearing today. A player can have better luck when he/she moves to another casino or that player might have won because other casino had low house edge as compare to the previous one where the players lost many bets.

I guess that day his luck went in his favor and that's why he won the jackpot at the other casino. He might have played 1 more hour on that same casino and might have won at the one also I guess. But, sometimes it's nice to move to other casinos to test out your luck.
I'd like to believe that low house edge where the gambler hit a jackpot for the particular casino is the reason why he win. But if it's the same game (and a luck-based) it's likely because of luck and not because he switched. I also do this, changing casino even the game that i'm going to play is still the same. IMO, the platform where you able to win is special fr a gambler to keep returning since that's where he/she experienced to become lucky.

There are casinos with similar UI but it's not really a problem as long as the platform is trustworthy wherein you can gamble without worries. It's normal nowadays to find such that will make you question if it's just a copy or they have their own brand. One of the reason why researching is necessary.
162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Buying and Selling of Casino Accounts (Discussion thread) on: February 21, 2024, 01:41:23 AM
Now, my question is..
- is it right to sell ones casino account, most especially when the account is KYCed?
- Do casinos have any policy against account sells?
- If you have the opportunity of buying a casino account, would you buy or build yours from afresh?
- Would you sell your casino account if you decide to leave gambling completely, most especially, your KYCed account? If yes, how do you trust the buyer?
- Over all, is casino account trading legitimate? If yes, should I create a thread where gamblers can easily post their casino account sell ads?
- Of course not. It's risky especially for the part of seller. Will you allow anyone to use your account verified with your own documents? It is not worthy regardless of the account's price.
- I'm not certain but probably this is against the rules.
- I will create a casino account (since it's free) and begin with low level rather than spending my money just because I want to take advantage the VIP rewards. Be active and wager more to reach the level that you desire.
- No. I will just keep it inactive free from worrying on how the buyer use my account after I sell it.
- For sure it is not. And no casino operator will encourage such activity.
163  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Wins: Your Money Was Returned to You. on: February 20, 2024, 11:11:35 PM
I'm a gambler for years already and aware of the fact that I had so many losses more than a winning moments. That being said, i'm not in profit but still chose to continue playing (though not often). My point is, yes it might be true that your few wins are just part of your many losses but what did you get in return? Because satisfaction everytime you play is crucial since this can minimize the bad effect of losing your money. As long as you are entertained and satisfied then I think you should not regret even you lose. Moreover, it is your decision to play even gambling is a game of luck and risky.

Anyway, casino is a business so they can't continue to operate if they are not in profit. Thus, it's not surprising if majority of gamblers are losing their money instead of gaining. This is a fact that every gamblers should know. If you can't bear losing your money since that's very likely, then refrain from playing and spend your money in something else that you won't regret.
164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A famous influencer lost more than $4000 in just 2 minutes. (2) on: February 20, 2024, 08:48:43 PM
Even with a rich guy gambling, still has this regret he just made, so how much more for an average guy to take the risk of spending his hard earned money just to gamble?
Regardless of your life status, losing money is not a good thing. Who wants it, right? Because that's your hard-earned money and in this case it's a huge amount already in his local currency. Well, the difference is, even this guy lose, he can still make money by posting the video on social media to attract viewers and of course to gain revenue. Thus, easy to get back what he lost.

Have you experienced this kind of situation wherein you spend huge amount of money and then regret after the loss? Is your reaction the same with that guy on the video?
Yes before. But now, I only spend the amount that I can live without. So everytime I gamble, i'm prepared for the outcome. I think having a mindset that losing is inevitable (so you should have fun instead) can lessen the expectation to gain money in gambling. However, many gamblers have this desire of earning through it then became uncontrollable. It's not unusual though.

166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 19, 2024, 01:54:29 AM
By gambling to pay off debt, gamblers are just going to increase their overall debt along the time, as they will be adding debt from gambling to their current debt they are trying to pay off through hypothetical gambling income. Profit which may never come, or that will eventually stop coming at some point the more they gamble, once they hit a long loss streak. For the debtor, gambling is just going to mess with his life even more, as the purpose of this activity isn't to proportionate people money to pay their debt.
It's funny that some gamblers are resorting to gambling to pay their debt. It would be good if you're lucky and able to earn a decent amount, but what if worse case happened? Gaining should not be the mindset when you gamble your money, once you wager, be prepared to lose since that is very possible. Therefore, forget about paying your debts or gaining huge in gambling, just enjoy the game. Because if you can't do (since your goal is to gain) chances are you'll only lose more for having such mindset.
167  Economy / Gambling / Re: Responsible gambling on: February 19, 2024, 12:25:21 AM
The number one way to understand a thing is to know the rules and by knowing the rules alone it has solved almost half of your problems,  so for a gambler who want to act in the most responsible way the first thing to do is to outline the rules within which you intend to operate on to have the most safe time while gambling.
Indeed. This is necessary to prevent ourselves committing any actions that are against the rules of the particular casino. Taking time to read the ToS just shows you are careful, and it's also one of the behavior as a responsible gambler.

Those who choose to remain lazy and not take the time to know those rules that safely guide them from becoming irresponsible gamblers and due to that laziness end up messing up things for themselves along the line
It's a human nature that many of us still forget this basic rule. Some also assumed that casinos have similar rules in general hence they just ignore reading the ToS. However, for gamblers who are long been playing, we know this step is crucial if we don't want to face problem later on.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: February 16, 2024, 10:23:19 PM
Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling. One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.
Anyone can gamble regardless of if you have experience or just a newbie and wants to try out gambling. As long as your age is above the required to legally play, then experience doesn't matter. Because you can learn this in the process. Moreover, learning about the casino games or even sportsbook are not that complicated. A simple research will do, thus even you're inexperience you can still play. But of course it is better if you already exert an effort to be aware of what you can possibly expect when you gamble your money.
169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 16, 2024, 07:17:48 AM
So I was wondering if there is any connectivity here, or do you believe such could happen in your own situation? Can you do such a thing to win? Have you had the experience of going to such places to seek predictions on how the outcome or results of games could be if they worked in your favor or not? Have you had anyone say or tell you such before and how their experience was?
I have not tried to personally go to someone with such capability. But what I used to do before is to look for everyday newspaper with a horoscope feature. The lucky color and numbers are my reference to buy ticket for lottery. This sounds funny but yes it happened to me before, because I believe in superstition. However none of those gave me a fortune.

But there's a case (this is not about gambling) where I consulted a fortune teller online (according to reviews he is accurate) about something personal. All of he said happened after 5 years. I asked, if I will be given a male child and if we will going to have our own home (that time we're just living with my in-laws). And it did happened, I don't know if it is just coincidence. Anyway, there's nothing wrong if you're going to believe those superstition but in gambling keep in mind that it is a game of luck. So just enjoy the game and don't pressure yourself to win.
170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you beleive in the concept of "Luck"? on: February 16, 2024, 02:28:05 AM
    • Do you believe in Luck? If so, how do you describe your perception of this concept?
    Yes. That's an important factor. However, we know most of the time it's not the case when we gamble because majority are losing their money.

    • How lucky do you think you are from 1 to 10?
    • Does your sense of luck in regular life correlate with your luck in gambling?
    Just 5. I'm not that lucky in gambling as I don't often win but in our regular life, we should not rely on luck. If you want to earn money then get a job.

    • Do you believe that some special things or actions can increase your luck?
    I believe yes. There are skill-based games wherein knowledge is your edge to somehow win. On the other side, in reality, it's necessary to exert an effort to achieve whatever goal you have. So if you're just waiting for your luck then nothing will happen. Because it needs an action to get a result.
    171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The person who can’t control emotions in gambling will never earn money from it on: February 15, 2024, 11:32:32 PM
    Nearly eighty percentage of the gamblers are doing gambling for the money making,So it was essential for the gamblers to make use of their strategies to win money from the gambling site.How your emotions affects your games,let me know your past experience.
    Having a strategy doesn't necessarily mean you'll going to make money in gambling. In my experience, luck is still a major factor to win regardless of what games you play. That being said, gambling should not be treated as a way to earn money because it is quite risky. Instead of gaining, there's a high chance to lose your capital. The reason why we often advice the beginners to only use the money that you can live without since losing is inevitable. If you gamble with a desire of making money, this can only disappoint you once the outcome is not what you expected it to be.
    172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: February 15, 2024, 01:14:59 PM
    I also started playing card games with my relatives using just a small stake as well. It's more on having fun and it serves as our bonding when we are together. But because any form of gambling here is already prohibited (aside from lottery since it is regulated), there's no way we can enjoy playing card games just like before.

    Fortunately there's an online casinos where we can play at home conveniently. It became the new way for gamblers to keep playing. Though of course the risk of becoming addicted is there if you have no self-control.

    Is it currently better not to register there?
    I am looking for a new bookie. The selection of bets looks good.
    In my experience, Roobet is one of the best casino that I played in (sportsbook or casino games). Never had an issue playing on their site and the support is responsive if you have concern, so try it for yourself. But as others have said, there's a mandatory level 1 kyc, need to fill a basic details.

    roobet is doing great with the marketing campaigns here in the forum, glad they keep it up after so many weeks.
    Indeed. They became well known here because of their different marketing strategies (sig campaign, contests, games etc.) the reason why they became popular. Though they already lessen their promotions as well as their sig participants.
    174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you quit gambling for a friend? on: February 14, 2024, 11:54:47 PM
    Of course I stop if it's for my friend's good, but that's not necessary because our friend can of course access it at any time if he wants, it requires close supervision, only self-awareness is the most important thing.
    I also think that things are like that, that's why I don't like to stop playing for a while and it's necessary only so that my friends can heal and not suffer, in fact all of us, as good friends, should Doing this type of sacrifice, not just for a friend, I believe that this can be done for any person as long as they are not suffering from the greatest dangers, it is something we should not do.
    If this particular friend is a compulsive gambler, even they stop this bonding as friends, he will likely find ways to continue this habit since he's the type who is already hooked in gambling. Stop playing for a while is a little sacrifice and a good decision. However, that doesn't mean this friend will also do the same. Chances are, he might continue playing in other place with different companions or doing it alone. Nevertheless it's really sad to see someone started playing to have fun but ended up being an addicted just because he don't have discipline to only play in moderation.
    175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To what extent have you hated yourself due to your gambling losses? on: February 14, 2024, 02:05:11 PM
    I was going through reddit in the early hours of today, and came across a user who lamented bitterly through his post, of how unlucky he has been in gambling in the past few weeks, like almost a month now, he said he bets minimum, twice every day, but have not won a dime for the past weeks, and this made him hate himself so much, I sincerely felt pity for him, for I remember one time I lost a huge sum of money to betting, I felt so bad that I thought of killing myself  Grin.

    So, let's share our worst gambling experiences, have you ever hated yourself so much due to lack of winnings in gambling? To what extent, and how did it end?
    Losing is inevitable in gambling, therefore it must be expected already when you use your money to play. Consistent losses are certainly not funny at all but come to think of it, if you're not happy with what you're doing and it's just giving you stress, making you hate yourself for being so unlucky, do you think it make sense to continuously playing?

    In my experience, I also felt the same way when I was a newbie in online gambling and has a high expectation to win. I thought I can double my money in snap and it's not hard. But gambling slap me with the real deal. Thus, if you can't bear losing your money, much better to not play at all.
    176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ? on: February 14, 2024, 01:14:25 PM
    Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ?  If not, how much you think is sufficient to retire as Gambling winning ?
    I'm not one of those who are fortunate to earn a decent amount to finally retire being a gambler. Though this is not really my main desire on why I am playing but of course who don't want to win huge, right? IMO, this is subjective. Because we have our own way of thinking so if one is already contented, regardless of the amount then that's the time to retire.

    Anyway, there are gamblers who already win a fortune that can change their lives for the better yet decided to keep on playing. Thus, it's not about the amount, it's about your will to already stop even your winnings are not sufficient to say it can change your life.

    178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling? on: February 10, 2024, 07:26:00 AM
    If suddenly you went on a binge-gambling out of a lack of self-control or something else. For example, you deposit money in rapid succession after a series of losses and the casino management freezes your account. And when you call their customer support, they tell you that your account has been frozen for 3 weeks and the reason why they carried out that measure was because they suspected that you were gambling irresponsibly and decided to take that measure so that you can call yourself back to order, will you feel furious, cuss out, sign out of your account and register on another casino and continue betting. Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?
    Did you experience this or just a hypothetical question? Because it's unusual for casino to freeze the account of their player for being out of control. In fact, it is actually beneficial for their business if the gambler keep on depositing money, it means more revenue. So they'll never do this unless there's a violation in the gambler's end.

    Anyway, if this actually happened, just shows the casino is not just after profit. Clearly they are concern to their gambler's behavior, preventing their player to have a further losses. It is actually a good thing. So if you are the gambler who experienced this and you are eager to play again to chase back what you have lost. Think deeply if what you're doing is right. Maybe it's better to refrain from playing this time and just do other activities to divert your attention.
    179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a generous gamblers on: February 04, 2024, 01:54:02 AM
    I just met a friend while playing in a lottery called Keno. He is a good gambler and sometimes hits jackpots. As a pensioner with grown children, he is a heavy bettor. I noticed that he is a generous gambler. He uses half of his winnings to treat friends, neighbors, and relatives every time he wins. He does this to invite good karma and since he acknowledges his gambling addiction, people who know him don't question him.
    This guy is already enjoying his life since he already did his part to support his kids (and now they're grown up). As a pensioner and probably no one relying on him anymore, gambling became his source to enjoy life. I don't see anything wrong with that especially he is generous to share half of his winnings to those who are in need. Regardless how much he is spend in gambling and how often he win/lose, it's his business. What matter is he's not begging to anyone for money to use in gambling.

    If i'm given a chance to win a decent amount, I will also share some to others especially to my family. Unfortunately, i'm not that lucky.

    True. Dahil dito sira ang kredibilidad nya bilang isang expert kuno. Kasi kung talagang expert ka sa crypto hindi ka basta-basta magiging biktima dahil nga pwede mong i analyze kung ang isang proyekto ay deserving pag invest-san o possible na maging scam. Malaking pera daw ang nawala sa kanya pero sa tingin ko hugas kamay lang ito para hindi sya masisi. Hindi naman din magtitiwala ang mga investors kung hindi dahil sa kanya.
