This is the reason why I will never invest in buying those Casascius coins... you just don't know if the creator of those coins has access to the Private key. They usually tell you that it is done electronically and that they have some kind of method that hides the Private key from the creator, but I think it is all bullshit. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) I never looked at how the whole collectible coins work. But it could be done better than loading the address by the creator. Well, in this case, it was bullshit. If he kept all those private keys in some way, he was preparing for fraud from the very beginning. We have all seen countless things about collectibles here on the forum, I guess it's interesting in some way but I never had a passion to buy one or to get more included in any way. Looks like it was a good choice... And what will happen with collectibles now? One addicted gambler ruined the entire business!

it is certainly a winning strategy in some cases...
As you wrote, this is a winning strategy in some cases. We have the same thing in trading discussions, and from my point of view, this strategy will have better results in trading than in gambling. But again, we go back to the same old, there are strategies that work in some specific period of time, but none will work forever.

I just tried to play Video Poker on the site, and I don't think it's working properly. Look, why was I given a 4x payout in this case? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJtAHo3C.png&t=663&c=asYevpygL8Pa0g) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FSjlV1dG.png&t=663&c=l-6LQGdKUxygrw) or, again, 4x payout in this case ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FoPL21rI.png&t=663&c=J8D1nkjZOb2KrA) and, actually, there were many cases like these during my play. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F75I1BuJ.png&t=663&c=shv0yHWQsvxuJQ) ^^Look. it doesn't make any sense, does it? I hope, you are not allowing to withdraw from your site, or you'll be milked totally dry. Fast. At least you make some effort to try it, and it turns out to be full of bugs! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) We have similar threads here from time to time, but I am not sure if there is anyone foolish enough to buy something like this. To be honest, I never even open something like this! When you see 100% legit just move away... friendly advice!

I guess the question is why Ethereum? I am not using Ethereum for a while, and I don't feel like I am missing anything... simply there are much better platforms around, and I get the same (if not more) from them! Ethereum I have and I get (from some passive income) waits for some price increase (if it happens), but as a user, I always choose other chains and I will not go back to Eth and Eth Dapps and tokens on that chain. Just because of the fess in the past, I can't get over that...

Just one last more, how do you feels with the market? Do you feels you have been left out or possibly you wanna make a turn to buy now since it hasn't touched $20k yet?
The crypto market is bigger and bigger... now we are just a bit under 1 trillion, but that's alright I guess, 5+ years ago that trillion was something we could just imagine. So now I believe that crypto will make another boom in the next 2-3 years, and we will probably see some new records... as it always happens. Bitcoin will be one of the rising stars for sure, but for all others nothing is certain. The top 10 list is changing every few years, except for that first place.

Providing wrong personal details is similar like just waiting a bomb exploding in the future, if you don't want to submit any personal information to a casino, just don't play in that's casino....
Very nicely explained, using other people's documents is bad for many reasons, not to mention that whoever does it can easily lose the account and all the money on it at any moment. We all like to stay anonymous, but this is not the solution to that. ... Anyway Freebitco is the only one trusted zero KYC casino in this forum.
I don't like KYC, I always look for services (gambling/trading/cashing out) without mandatory KYC, but I will do it if it's really necessary. The good thing is there are still alternatives, zero KYC alternatives. Instead of cheating OP should look for them...

What is your reason for trying a new casino or unfamiliar casino has been promoted newbie accounts in various gambling threads, do you want to catch something from the bonus promotion or you are challenged to try a new casino. but anyway it is your right but most people avoid that casino because we have list of top casinos for trusted gambling. I have guessed about complaining about the unfamiliar casino you use, they will have various reasons to steal your deposited funds, but their reasons are illogical to say they have no crypto withdrawals after you deposit BTC to that casino. I was probably chasing some good promotion that I ran into who knows where... That's how it is when you're a beginner and you like to explore everything around you. It's not bad to take risks and try new things sometimes, just don't go with all-ins. Regarding OrientExpress specifically, I deposited a little more than $50 (as I always do when trying new things, it can be just lower than that), at that time it was about 0.013 BTC if I remember correctly. From time to time they give me a 5 euro bonus... Well, we learn from our mistakes I guess.

It would really be interesting to know if anyone has used the list of crypto casinos proposed by OP, there are online casinos there that are not mentioned here on the forum yet, so many are simply little known.
... In fact, some of the best casinos that we have on this forum are not listed from the sites that Op recommends. I tried some "crypto" casinos that are not familiar here on the forum, and I had issues with each of them. Always something, but the one I still remember is OrientExpress. So I deposited some BTC's and I won a decent amount... when I wanted to withdraw they said they don't support crypto-withdrawals, just crypto deposits! Of course, I lost the entire balance on some crazy gambling. People should be careful with crypto casinos in general, even if they are active here, if they don't have a thread here we should be extra careful! I learned that after I got burned... I checked the list from the OP again, nothing has changed meanwhile, still the same casinos I never so before. I wouldn't dare to try any of them... especially not with some higher deposit!

Tomorrow may be the most important game of the year. Napoli - Juventus. The difference is currently 7 points. A considerable gap, but if Juventus win, the difference is only 4 points and then you really have an open title fight again. If Napoli manages to decide the game in her favor tomorrow, you might say that the race for the championship is over for Juventus, as the difference is suddenly 10 points. I actually don't see AC Milan getting much closer. They have much less quality than Juventus. Juventus will also have to try to win its matches more easily.
Juventus will be my favorite in this game because, they have performed well in their last game and I believe they will use this game as an example to other teams that things have changed positively with them. Juventus will use all their tools to ensure they achieve victory from this game to have hope of winning this trophy. Despite, Napoli is still leading in the Italian league competition, I guess there will be changes in the remaining games that will make AC Milan to lead Italian table because they were able to beat their opponent yesterday. This is a very difficult match to predict. Juve is playing great, they have a good winning streak, and they keeping their net untouched. I guess Zanab is right, Juve should try to win games more easily, or it's better to say to score more, their wins are with one goal mostly. I feel that Juve is not going to lose, but I am not sure they can win... X2 at x1.85 sounds like a good bet, and 0-2 goals as well. A draw is around x3.5, that would be a bold bet. Both teams are playing well, it would be foolish to underestimate Napoli, but somehow I give a slight advantage to Juve today.

So you don't miss the moment when the size of the base prizes from the wheel of fortune starts to decrease.
Exactly what I wanted to write. Do you remember maybe at which BTC price we get '50' for the first time? I have a feeling we still have lot of time until it will be decreased, for sure it the price was >$20k, but honestly speaking I do not remember what it was. It was like ages ago... @iv4n, @slaman29 - when do you plan to execute all that WOFs? 1000? Or just at the end of week/month to have some sats for bets? I guess when the base bet prize starts to decrease I will spin all of them, but if that doesn't happen I plan to wait for the next Lambo draw, which is in 91 days. I will probably spin them a few days before that... A week ago I busted the entire balance playing multiply... I got two Golden tickets, at least something. So I plan to take a break from playing. I am thinking to deposit some money just for the interest.

Mobile altcoin wallets are not safe, because there are viruses and malware targeting mobile phones. The best way would be use desktop wallet versions. Also antivirus soft are mainly developed for desktop.
In the end, we all need multiple wallets. For saving and long-term holding is better to use desktop wallets, and even better to buy... I have Trezor T, just my choice. But if you are active in the crypto community, if you like to trade or gamble, and participate in all crypto things around you will need a wallet that will be used for all those daily stuff. Don't use your main wallet for everything, safety first.

Thank you for your suggestion. While I'm aware of btcgosu, I am not familiar with the criteria they use to rank casinos. So, I would prefer direct recommendations from respected members of this forum. If Effie isn't a trusted member then I don't know who is: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FV6gmhbXN%2Fimage.png&t=663&c=qGAZe-MtCdypVA) Before writing a review he checks a casino and everything they have to offer, and his criteriums are pretty high. On the site, you have his detailed reviews and ratings, but you can also rate any casino as well: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FQxhmJKdz%2Fimage.png&t=663&c=TMwoNTowHGhl9g) I will suggest Starsbet. A relatively new casino, they don't have many games as some others, but recently they added a new one, so I guess they are working on that. It's a dividend-based casino, and I can say that daily payouts are nice for the amount of the Stars tokens I hold. I have a lot of deposits and withdrawals, so I guess it's a nice place that has the potential to become even better in the future!

... and some promotions/competition in this forum...
As a guy who won some of them, I can only say that I expected a more challenging competition each time. I guess it's the same thing that happened with poker (Efi started the first bitcointalk poker tournament), although the prizes were very good after some time people lose interest... The year just started, I am sure we will see some new promotions & competitions very soon.

Nice rewards from WoF's spins rolls today. That is the ideal results in my opinion: few lottery tickets, average number of RPs and a lot of sweet satoshis! 5000 satoshis prize and 500 RPs prize in 45 spins. Really good, I was waiting for that since a long time already, but it has finally come! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FqLYSLXc.png&t=663&c=nSy3WhKPq62JhQ) Here is my winning to make you feel more PROUD about your winnings. (Your spins 45 My Spins 96) ... My Sats: 1770 My RP: 1560 My Lott: 150 GT: 00 Well, I decided to break some of my records. I guess that having locked tokens for a year comes with some benefits, every once in a while I get one more free spin daily: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2F15Q2NX6W%2Fimage.png&t=663&c=pdizIKLbLEWe2w) ...but still did not reach the next GT (did I mention the progress counter would be helpful...?)....
Yes, you did, and I will support you again on this! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Buy the way, I am curious to know if any user here has ever won that lambo ticket, or the lambo itself, been a very long time that has been on the board but I've never seen an announcement that a user actually won it.
I've already won some lambo tickets on the WoF. Sometimes it does happen. But for this round I still haven't won any golden tickets. About lambo winners we don't know any of them. I just remember it was said last winner was someone from the forum, although he didn't want to show himself publicly. I won many "Lambo tickets", from the daily free spin we get in the mail, and from the daily spins we get from holding FUN tokens. I think the last winner is from the forum, if you scroll through the thread you will find his comments somewhere. If you focus on the days when the last Lambo draw was held you will find him easier.

I think this black Friday fever bonus should be over now but however be the case, I do not really think I need anything right now for a Friday bonus but just a big win. A big win that could pay some bills for the debt accrued, a big win that could see the family through, a big win that could outt a smile on my face once again, a big win that could help me sustain my friends, relations, Loved ones and those dear to me. I wish I could get that big Friday win right now so I could be at peace and blessings to the less privileged. Can casinos do that Friday bonus in such a way?
I guess that every gambler would like to win big, but there's that little thing... do you play for big wins? Or you are settling with small odds and lower-risk bets? Do you play the lottery every week? I guess we can't hope for a big win if we don't have a ticket! Now when I think about the headline... we don't need to wait for extra bonuses from casinos, as we play they are coming. More playing is equal to more wagering and in almost every casino more wagering will bring more perks. When I say "more" it's over $10k daily maybe, more or less. Everything under that will bring some benefits, but not in every casino,

... Actually it's still a question to me whether Video poker is absolutely the same as slots, where you can't affect the outcome in any way. Like, for example, if you were always ignoring a good hand, like a full house or four of a kind, or even better, that were given to you, and were holding nothing, but were exchanging all the cards all the time, would the result after, say, 50 games, be the same as if you were holding the "good" cards? I read that skillful poker players have significantly higher odds of winning, but I'm not sure if that is the case in reality.
There are many different types of slots, to start from the number of reels and lines to the ones that have some special features. I said that video poker is "something like a poker-themed slot machine"... and basically it is. 5 reels, one line... with the first spin you decide which reels to hold for the next spin, and after that, you either have a hand or not (there are not many, but there are slots where you can hold the reels, but it costs extra). If you have a hand you can gamble for more and play hi & lo. Something that many slots have... feature to gamble with your winnings. From my experience, you can chase whatever you want but without luck (as in slots) you will not get anything! 50-100 hands without 3 of a kind, to not speak about something higher. Simply if you decide to go for "good hands" you will miss many hands that would actually pay off and give you the chance to gamble for more. A simple example is 4 of the same color with an ace and a king... so you either risk and go for flush, or to try to get at least a pair holding just an ace and king, which has a higher chance to come of course. And you are a poker player, how many times have you had 4 of the same color and you waited for that 5 but it didn't come? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I guess in video poker, our chances are even lower, video poker has RTP. Simply you don't have many options in video poker, it's just hand after hand and you either hit something good or not. Like spinning slots... For people who like these games and wish for an extra thrill, I advise trying Caribean poker. Unlike video poker, you have a chance to raise or fold, but it's a lot more expensive than video poker, and actually requires some kind of strategy and poker skills. But it's also a poker against the house, so a lot depends on luck and the next card you will get!

~ And for people with zero tickets it is especially important.
I support this too. A counter displaying the remaining number of bets (sats) to get a golden ticket in the hi-lo game would be a useful feature for many users. So I think if freebitcoin developers wish, they can easily implement such a feature because it shouldn't be a difficult task for them. By the way, if a user has a desire, he can write such a counter (script) himself using the console in a browser, although I'm not sure that would be a good idea because freebitcoin may interpret it as a violation of its rules. I hope our requests for this counter will not be buried under other comments, and @wetsuit, @TheQuin or @freebitco.in PR will reply on whether it's possible to install it. I think such a counter would increase wagering on the site, because many of those that are mainly there for the faucet would try to wager 500,000 satoshi to have at least one Golden Ticket. I love counters! On auto-betting there is some kind of "live stats", the biggest bet and win, and profit/loss for that session. But that can look a lot more serious, and why not make the same for manual betting? I think it would be great, and for sure it would attract me to play more.

2: what do you think, if all necessary security checks are up to 100% and Abuse is totally eliminated from casinos, do you think gambling sites will make a no wagering requirement on their bonuses?
Why would they? casinos are living on their player's deposits and playing activity, there are always wagering requirements in everything you do in casinos. I agree, in casinos, it's all about wagering... and without wagering requirements, it would be like casinos are giving away money! But casinos are not charity organizations, and even if abuse is completely eliminated there will be wagering requirements for all casino features. When it comes to money, I never saw any casino that gives some "free cash" without wagering requirements before withdrawal... imagine that abuse if you can register, get some free cash and withdraw that cash immediately! I guess even with mandatory KYC people will try to take as much as they can... But some casinos give "free spins" without wagering requirements, but the tricky part is that with 20-30 spins you need to be extremely lucky to hit something nice. Usually, it's a few dollars so you need to play more before you reach the minimum withdrawal amount.
