Theres no guarantee of a fair play on online cockfighting, theres alot of ways to cheat on it, especially impaling one of the cock or using a gaff that has a cheat advantage over the other. Some cockpit manage to control these but not all. That is why i have a doubt on this online cockfight you would not be able to complain when cheatings were done.

As I said on my recent post, they can be a live game or match in a cockpit though they might not be live even though it is indicated that it is live. There are tv channels and tv shows that stream this kind of videos and as I said, we don't know if this is legit. For sure, dads and uncles will have more fun going to cockpits yelling their bets rather than going online watching and betting on these live fights happening.

Did not hear anything about this before, thanks for sharing this though. I will try this site and maybe tell this to my friends and they might know other online cock fighting sites that I can share here too. I just hope this is a legitimate site, there are some sites that my friends told me that the fight happening is not live, it is not cockfighting though.
1763  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: September 16, 2019, 10:36:05 AM
The house always wins in gambling so there is no such thing as a secret to winning. The cards, numbers or combination are all random so the only key to win is you should have the ability to foresee what is going to happen next or what number or card will be shown. Therefore, I conclude that that if there is really a secret on winning in gambling is he should have is own casino.

They are all random huh? Or are they? Well, I don't really know, we don't really know. Also, don't you think that if there really someone that know the secret of gambling, don't you think he will not be owning a gambling site or a casino but take down casinos and earn a lot of money out of it. He will be going casino to casino earning money and that would force the owners to either kill that guy or close their business. If he will be owning a casino, he will not earn as much as he can win using the secret he knew.

Today's generation, money is what we need to survive. So whether it's from gambling or not, as long as it's legal then I will consider it clean. Money from crime is what we should consider dirty since it came from a source in which it was taken forcibly.

That is true, gambling can't be considered illegal as long as it is legal to do in your country. If it is illegal, then I advice that you should not do that since that will lead you to the jail. In our country, money from smuggling, and other crime is dirty money. Scams, hacks can also be considered as illegal acts
1765  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We still don't have any idea about the real Satoshi, stop false info on: September 15, 2019, 11:10:29 AM
I think we no need to worry more about Satoshi. We can only remember him/her for new money transaction system. There is nothing to say about his invention so that we should focus on how we carry his invention successfully or modernization his system.

We don't need to remember since whenever I hear anything about crypto currency, Satoshi Nakamoto is the first name that would pop into my mind. Because of his Blockchain technology, bitcoin became the most popular and the most successful crypto currency ever made. Whoever he is, he is a genius and despite me wanting to know him too, I just respect his decision to stay hidden.
1766  Economy / Economics / Re: Mining in the cloud vs simply buying bitcoin on: September 15, 2019, 10:22:00 AM
Mining in the cloud is very difficult because to get a single Bitcoin from cloud mining means lots of hard work and time required. Buying Bitcoin is the fastest, easiest and smartest way to own Bitcoin only if one has the funds to purchase. In this way, one can purchase 1BTC within the next few minutes which the cloud mining cannot give within the same time frame.

Mining bitcoin through cloud is really difficult not only because you are working for them but this is not even a choice to earn a good amount of bitcoin. Buying bitcoin is not the fastest, it is the easiest and most reliable way to get bitcoin. Obviously, you can't mine a bitcoin in a minute, even if you are using a mining rig, especially with the difficulty of it these days and in the near future.
1767  Economy / Economics / Re: Perfect example of why governments must hold Bitcoin on: September 15, 2019, 01:30:40 AM
Government are not even supposed to attack cryptocurrency because it is like this even favored them more in the area that the op listed on the benefits of it for the government.
But they will when once they started to lose their fiat value due to the increase in adoption of bitcoin and other decentralized matter,so bitcoin holders need to stay at that time to bring the real financial freedom.

"Attack"? What does that mean? You don't need to think that since they will never attack nor control crypto currency since even they have bitcoin saved, the majority of it is in the investors. Also, it is not easy to control a big crypto currency like bitcoin.
1768  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why haven't governments illegalized bitcoin transactions? on: September 15, 2019, 12:04:27 AM
they just shouldn't

More like they couldn't. Despite them banning bitcoin and crypto currencies in a country, they can't stop tgese users in their country since they can' track or pinpoint who's who. They should just let it be since it is an unstoppable force they can't deny. They can ban the way it want it, it will keep on going.
1769  Economy / Economics / Re: The Bitcoin Giveaway Project on: September 14, 2019, 11:23:18 PM
What are everyone's thoughts on this? Any recommendations for a strategy or format which might be utilized in an effort to help crypto mass adoption?

I think giving out btc for free is not the best thing to do or what will draw them in bitcoin stuff.
My thought is that you can teach them how to invest or trade on it. As the saying goes ; teach someone how to fish and not giving them fish. That is, give them the source not the result.

Why would you teach them something they might not evnn be interested with? Not all of the people are fond of investing and if you will be specifying that they should invest on bitcoin, they would suspect that you might be plotting a way to scam them, especially people these days usually like to look at bitcoin as a scam. Better give them bitcoin and let them do what they want. If they like it, they will go back. Nice OP, i think the best way to sell something is let them try it first.
1770  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My simulations for testing Martingale strategy on: September 14, 2019, 10:20:38 PM
No. I am not interested in this strategy nor other strategies since I don't really have a problem gambling for fun. Also, I know that Martingale can be more vicious than other strategies. You double down every time you lose, that would really drain your balance so quickly. I would just stick to fun and run.
1771  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: September 14, 2019, 02:36:04 PM
there won't be many people who depend on income from gambling, especially if gambling can be done as a profession to be able to make money. I think only people who are lazy to work or do not have other jobs that make playing gambling a profession to make money instantly

What are you saying? The reason it is called a profession means that people are earning through it as a source of income. That is like when parents are telling their children that they can't earn anything from playing online games and now million and million of money are being priced to these games and now being called esports.
1772  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will There Comes A Time That All Online Gambling Sites Are CryptoCurrency Based? on: September 14, 2019, 01:33:27 PM
Maybe, we don't know. If you say that it is crypto currency based, then there would be no other currencies except for cryptos but there are gamblers that do not want to use them or be any part of it so I think they would still accept fiat. It is a possibility but for now, I don't think that would happen.
1773  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Facebook trying to profit from Cryptos ? on: September 14, 2019, 01:17:50 PM
I agree with what they've said. And yeah, I will never trade or even invest on those crypto currencies. Some of the cryptos I am holding gave me some losses that is why I can't also afford to lose and invest on those crpytos.
1774  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How using Tor Browser increases bitcoin theft? on: September 14, 2019, 03:22:18 AM
I think they have their reasons for this since this browser is better than others when it comes to privacy. I doubt that people would be able to track your histories with this. It would not increase the possibility of being hacked but it would increase your time browsing since it is not that fast when it comes to that.
1775  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cheaters . who caused the cryptocurrency to go down on: September 13, 2019, 10:41:49 PM
Your post reminds me of bounty hunters who cheat using more than one account, even those who use dozens of accounts with bonus programs. The money they receive when they sell will affect the value of the project.

At first I thought bounty hunters will not affect the market but when they recieve their shares, usually they quickly sell it in the market with a low price. Obviously it is not a lome hunter and there will be a lot of more them selling their shares with lower price than the first one, that could really affect the price and the project as a whole.
1776  Economy / Economics / Re: Differences between an investor and common man! on: September 13, 2019, 12:58:18 PM
I don't know what the difference between an investor and an ordinary person is. I only know the thinking of an investor that they are always looking for ways to make their investment profitable because I am also an investor. and ordinary people I don't know what they think.

I think we are having a misconception here about these ordinary people. They can also invest, but unlike investors, they are more focussed on investing time, attention and sometimes money rather than most of the investors that also use time and most of the time money to maximize profit.
1777  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Blockchain trigger a massive boost in our economy? on: September 13, 2019, 12:09:40 PM
Obviously the technology will be leading here. There are a lot of technologies that can be used and I don't think the Blockchain technology will be left out. It will be the start that will leads to another technolgy that in the future will be used too. I don't think though that it will be a boost but a way to help make transactions efficient and fast.
1778  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: September 13, 2019, 11:22:58 AM
The chances for us to win in the sports betting will not be too big if we don't know how to pick the right sports because that will depends on how good we know about those sports. If we don't have any info or knowledge, then we will be difficult to win. And to develop the skills is not easy because it will need effort and practice in years so we can get the experience.

I'm not saying it's big or easy, I'm saying it's possible because there are people who are proven to be successful in sports betting.
Unfortunately, if we look at the rate, there's only a small percentage of the total sports gamblers who are really successful, but if we make an effort to pursue, who knows we will be part of the number of successful gamblers. 


Yes, I don't think that they can make a living, but if they can win so much money, then they can make a living from the gambling industry. But that will be only a few gamblers who can do that.

We have different opinion but I will respect yours, but hopefully one day I will be able to prove it to you by my experience that I can make a living, and hopefully you will believe me if I show you some proof.
Agree with you we all can become good gambler and we can make good amount of income from gambling as a profession o like to gamble in my free time it’s not my whole earning resource but almost all my earning is about gambling its my additional job which supports me allot to reach my daily needs, so to you as well good luck.

I don't think not all of them. Though there are a lot of gamblers that earned a lot, there are still a lot of them that lost a lot. If you really have the skill, I encourage to gamble since it will create you instances and paths to success. They said that when you enjoy and like what you are doing, it is already a success.
1779  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My gambling strategy on: September 12, 2019, 11:58:02 PM
This might work for you this day but I don't think it will happen to them or will ever happen again to you. Congratulations on your winning though and thank you for sharing.
1780  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Money is Dirty Money on: September 12, 2019, 02:01:56 PM
To define 'dirty money' is money obtained unlawfully or immorally.
When I think of 'dirty money' I am thinking about money obtained by doing something illegal or harming a person maybe even drugs
Since gambling is legal where I am from I can not consider it dirty
Like your examples I know of people who feed his family from playing cards- how is this dirty money if he does nothing wrong

But OP also mentioned Islam in which I think he’s Religion and since it was forbidden from Muslim then it become Dirty money.no matter how good we deal with gambling yet it will be a Negative as not allowed by their religion and that’s the sad reality
Also there are countries that treat gambling as illegal activities so this also applied to the people live in those countries
Yeah we respect those religious rules, but all the choices go back to everyone wants to follow it or not. I myself assume that dirty money is money generated from crimes such as theft, robbery, cheating, scamming and others thing that harm others people.

Obviously since if you are reading the OP, dirty money is obtained unmorally and unlawfully, and you just ellaborate that. For me, dirty money is still money. No matter what they think as long as I am doing nothing wrong and I received that money as a donation, I would accept that since in the first place, I don't of that is dirty money or not, all I know is I am grateful to that person helping me.
