1801  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Fortune Jack a Scam or are they Legit? on: February 15, 2017, 07:45:02 AM
They are a legit site but as far as I know their withdrawal system is pretty slow for unknown reason.
I think they are taking their time to check the withdrawals by hand.


Based on my own experiences (at least on the last 2-3months), my withdrawals were processed instantly in few minuutes. Maybe some players get some delays on bigger withdrawals which is exceeded the hot wallet. So they need to refill it first.
i can vouch about it too , do withdrawal below 1 bitcoin always done instantly within a couple minutes or even few secs only . but yeah based on my referral complaint there is few withdrawal processed a little bit delay, don't know what is the actual reason, they just keep saying sorry for the inconveniences etc. so far so good , nothing to worried about.
1802  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin dead? on: February 15, 2017, 07:37:42 AM
Bitcoin can not now die. It invested a lot of money. Therefore, it will go up in the next few years. I believe in it.
yeah bitcoin will be never die because getting much more stronger and a lot of people investing their money in bitcoin and maximum people strongly believe in bitcoin so i am sure bitcoin will be survive forever.
That is right that bitcoin will survive forever because it is now used in a large number of companies as a payment method for their clients and they are considered as the strong pillars for the base of bitcoin and because of these companies the survival of bitcoin will be forever.
Acceptance as well use of bitcoin directly have increased a lot. In a recent article it is mentioned that bitcoin acceptance in Japan increased by 20% which is very large. No need to be panic that bitcoin will not survive long.

That's reasonable, but today the price of bitcoin went so much down that I think many people have started to panic. Can someone explain what's going on? Why do so many people have so little trust in bitcoin? I mean why do they sell below $1,000?
people would call bitcoin dead when the price dropped at least to 50% or more , just like what happened few years ago the price went down from $500 to $200/$250 a lot of investor got huge loss due doing panic selling that time. but then what happened today? it's clearly growing gradually in every years, just take a look into the graph and you will see the fact.
i do not think that bitcoin will even be call as dead, previously when bitcoin fell down. after some time people start trading bitcoin. and now we are trading bitcoin above 1000 USD level. that is i think a remarkable achievement. and now we are hopping that bitcoin will very soon cross its all time high price and may be even cross 2000 USD in 2017.
keep that optimism , but also don't forget about something bad that could be happened . it has possibility to keep increasing up to $2,000 per 1 bitcoin but you know it could decreased deeply back to $200 or even worse. you need to have a second plan. don't go allin on anything , or you would be screwed up.
1803  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: February 15, 2017, 07:28:30 AM
True having bankroll management helps in lessen our worry whether it will beneficial to us, we can figured out things if it is the right time to push the game or not. Plug some range and caps too in playing.

People cant really win, If I have funds then Im just going to invest in gambling site and leave some changes for myself to gamble. Sometimes I win with my small amount and I feel good about it although I might be losing again sooner or later however atleast I got something invested on the site and Im not losing everything in gamble
Yeah I agree, the more we play, the more we lose. I can not handle the winning percentage since there always be a house and it is likely to control everything. Therefore, my strategy is : whenever I win, I will withdraw all of my money and decide to take a sleep in order to forget about gambling. well, we are all greedy, you know
keep in mind that gambling for making money wouldn't work smoothly , you have to be skillful and play only on the games that skill based not luck based, so your winning would determined on how good you are playing not on how luck you are which hard to find yourself always in luck. sportsbetting the only game that i've mastered and could be profitable.
1804  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you beat the house edge on: February 15, 2017, 07:13:41 AM
Temporarily yes, longtherm not...
What if you are lucky in the long term,it all depends upon your luck and gambling strategy .If you are a rage gambler you will never win and never plan on becoming rich in a single day. If you could follow all those then you could beat the house ,but the margin of error is really slim.
then it has different story, luck always be the number one factor that could makes anyone break something impossible in gambling. and it's rare happened so you can't expect on it at all. i guess the house edge could lost over the player if there is an exploit attempt in the system , otherwise hard to make it happen.
1805  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy and Lost in GAMBLE on: February 15, 2017, 07:01:59 AM
in gambling dice I often use martingale strategy it's the general strategy but can generate profits as long as not greedy. in sportsbetting I prefer choosing a team that has a chance to win big, and of course see the details of the game
Yeah, this Martingale strategy is really great, it can win back your losses but as a return you must have a good and high capital. If you just have some faucet bitcoins in your hand better YOLO and dont use martingale, Martingale really need a lot of money because you are doubling your bets every loss. And I think it has the highest risk of losing that winning. Better be in a sportsbetting site than dice.
Martingale does really need big bankroll for you to be able to sustain the use of martingale but it doesnt guarantee you anytime on making money because house will surely bust you out and you will lost of your bankroll on a short period of time thats why i dont use too much martingale system.
on how much bankroll you think martingale will work? 10 bitcoin? 100 bitcoin? 1000 bitcoin? there a lot of people have done this kind strategy before and no matter how large your bankroll , your desire to win more will be there . so it's doesn't matter how much bankroll you have , but the martingale itself proved not working at all in any conditions.
1806  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: February 15, 2017, 06:43:07 AM
Does it make sense to believe that Bitcoin could one day be replaced by another cryptocurrency, that is, a cryptocurrency that really does make Bitcoin obsolete?

Bitcoin possible obsolete by other coins but not this short period of time.Bitcoin replaced if no one using it.  As long as many consumers believe in bitcoin it will remain number 1.
i do not think that it will be every possible to replace bitcoin by another coin. i think bitcoin will continue for ever as it is the best currency of the world so far and still there is not any currency so near to it.

I don't think that it will happen too. Looking upon the market cap of bitcoin it's very impossible that another popped out coin will just replace it.

And seeing the next to it which is ETH is still very far to replace bitcoin. So I really don't think that it will be ever replaced.

That's the aim of most alt devs.
i wouldn't say it's impossible, it could happened anytime but so far i can't see there is a high possibility for altcoin like ethereum or litecoin could replace bitcoin position as a center of cryptocurrency. but you know everything could changes as time goes by , i just think not for now.
1807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: February 15, 2017, 06:19:32 AM
Well for me the smartest way to play gambling is to limit your self,
Set up a goal for your profit and your lose and just be calm whenever you lose.

Exactly, the smartest way to gamble is to control our betting like daily 10 gambles. Either we win or loss, it will impact on your person life if you don't keep any set of rules for your gambling. Even you are in swing of making money continuously through gambling than quit gambling for that day.
that's true stick to the rules that you have set up before are a must to avoid your greedy come up and take control your mind. anyone who start gamble will have hard time to quit as they keep following greedy minds which it's never ending , on losing you will think to cover it up asap and on winning you will never enough to have profit, we are human and being greedy are always there.
1808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your game and why? on: February 15, 2017, 06:08:54 AM
I prefer the fast action of dice, it is easy to play, and while I know I'm going to lose there are some days I get lucky and make some money not much, but it is better than nothing.
that game was the fastest result that you can get but it has super high risk for everyone who play there to walk away from the site with empty hands, broke and even poor. i wouldn't play dice too much, just for the sake of looking for the luck. as i bet everyone would prefer to gamble on a skill based games like poker, sportsbetting or maybe balckjack.
1809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: February 14, 2017, 11:54:38 PM
although gambling has many risks for the loss, but I do not ever intend to stop in this game because I positioned this game just for fun and not a problem if I can enjoy this game.

That's part of being a gambler, you never stop, you enjoy the game most of the time and that is one reason why it is so addicting, people want it for fun and at the same time if they are lucky, they could earn few bucks. Though it looks like it is almost nearing addiction, it's just fine, as long as it is still controllable and not affecting your real life.  Smiley

People dont need to stop if they could afford it, it is a way of earning money if you know what to do. If you just gamble blindly then that is a mistake. People cant gamble blindly and keep on hoping to win, most of the time you will lose however with small chances you might win huge amount from a site

Exactly right. For some is the way of earning money for others is luck.
But don't think you can get all back.
noone know what to do to make gambling profitable in the long term , those people who feel themselves in profit are just lucky to quit gambling at the right time. things that i know always happened in gambling are a lot of people suffering , and that's enough to explain everything.
1810  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you like slot games ? on: February 14, 2017, 11:27:33 PM
Slots are great if you play just for having some fun for sometime and spend some money on it, but if you are trying to win anything in gambling then slots are not the solution for that because the chances of winning big are really low there. It is even hard to win the lowest price in slots but it is fun to watch and that is what makes people play on them i guess.
I do agree with you slot games are really fun to play and of course to watch on in a real casino as online gambling is totally different from real gambling. But the problem is I don't trust real casinos with slot machines as they may increase the difficulty from the standard level.
This is the online reason why I like online gambling as they have that probably fair implemented in them.
I absolutely hate the slot since it is not very fun and waste of time. The more you play it, the more you realize how ridiculous it can be. Therefore, I have not played slot for more than 5 years and I think it is my best choice. And as you say, I totally agree that there are no way to calculate whether the provably fair system work or not in the slot game. Therefore, I recommend not to play the slot. It is too boring
ridiculous when you win nothing , but what would you say when jackpot hits you huhh? i doubt you would say the same thing! it's always worth even slot have really high house edge. just the matter how you react to it. you have to gamble on slot for sometimes only don't do it in regular time.
1811  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: February 14, 2017, 12:39:58 PM
I think, by making gambling as the lucrative activities of course can be. the best way is investment in gambling sites, there are many giving gains of up to 15% per month.

Really? 15% per month, Have you invest your money in any gambling site? Because i have no idea about investing in gambling sites, but if it is true, than i thing it is big chance to make money. And also in this way, gambling sites are more than profitable than only play gambling.   
Most of the new gambling sites accepts investment for their bank roll and you could make some profit from it.It is better to invest in a gambling site than gambling with it. I am not sure how much you will be getting in return,gambling is not a profitable activity as it has its risk.But if you are into sports gambling then you can make some money with it if you are interested in sports.
you think people will just put their money on strange sites that new in this business? i don't think so unless there is a lot of dumb people who really not understand about how to invest properly. but since invest on gambling site itself popular considered as gambling too , i think there's no harm to invest there of course on a trusted well known casino.
1812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: February 14, 2017, 12:08:24 PM
Gambling can certainly get you in trouble and can sometimes lead to addiction which can bring a lot of problems. If done responsibly, it can be a great source of entertainment. Just try not to overdo it, only gamble what you can afford to lose, and you should be fine.
much better if you do not gamble, I don't know what kind of entertainment gambling is and how it entertain gamblers,. gambling is a wrong and bad habits and when someone get addicted to it than it will fuck that person who addicted to gamble.
wrong only if you don't really understand what for gambling designed. a lot of people come to a casino to make money of course it's wrong , make money by doin business not to gamble it. you should come to a casino for having fun , just for the sake to get your adrenaline pushed.
1813  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any insurance service for gamblers to retain heavy losses....??? on: February 14, 2017, 11:25:21 AM
I have been thinking of an insurance service for gamblers, in which they were supposed to pay regular premiums. And while placing bets can get back at least a small amount back if the lost amount is a huge one. Myself too haven't come across such services. What you people think of an insurance for gambling.
The nearest service I can think of is the moneyback/coinback promotions offered by casinos. 4grinz is offering those kind of promo if you play on thursday and lost all your deposit they will credit 10% back no rollover required but you have to be a premium member to qualify for this promo. Sportsbet.io also offers moneyback up to 100mbtc for specific sports just always check their promotions tab.
makes sense , consider a moneyback promo as an insurance. but i guess that wasn't what op looking for. he wondering about if here is an insurance service for those people who prepare themselves in case they got greedy and broke because of gambling , which i think no company want to take this as business since they know it wouldn't be a profit at all.
1814  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin dead? on: February 10, 2017, 10:56:16 AM
people would call bitcoin dead when the price dropped at least to 50% or more , just like what happened few years ago the price went down from $500 to $200/$250 a lot of investor got huge loss due doing panic selling that time. but then what happened today? it's clearly growing gradually in every years, just take a look into the graph and you will see the fact.

Few hours ago we suffer quite a drop and alot of people in my local exchanger is panicking about it. We are now in a stage where a simple drop will make people panic because the current price is too high therefore we cant really blame them for what is happening right now, well atleast because of this we are getting profit from the panic dump
no wonder , they are a newcomer usually , can't see the real situation out there causing the flash drop. it's pretty clear some group dump the market , quite often happened if you can really read the market , just put on the right sell/buy position don't be confused and keep that position no matter what.
1815  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: February 10, 2017, 10:44:28 AM
For some, gambling is part of the vacation experience. It comes in the hotel/resort and provides entertainment for the guests.

That's for some and they prefer to gamble in real one rather than online. But there are also some that prefers to gamble online while they were on a vacation, for example if they are vacationing in a country where gambling is prohibited then they don't have choice but to gamble online and that can make them relieve their crave.
since online gambling are flexible i guess everyone love to do it online , as for some people especially an under age player they can't go to a real life casino. but you can do it even you are an animal in online gambling casino. so for me online gambling have more supporter and it's good for bitcoin as it seems that onlince gambling have a big contribution to bitcoin adoption.
For me, online is very appropriate and very comfortable especially someone who likes to stay away from casino environment, there are a lot of smokers there, I can manage but would prefer not to. There is no assurance whether you'll win or lose so, it's pretty hard to win, but it's entertaining. Bitcoin have achieved lots of accomplishments that are actually worthy, one of them is being applied into gambling. Lol
there's always pros and cons, online gambling hard to control if there's a lot of player underage and also a lot of real life casino not healthy as you said people smoking and drunk everywhere, and some casinos run illegally even have been regulated. one thing makes both same are on how people get addicted so fast no matter where they play, gambling simply addictive.
Well, Although online casinos seem to support teenagers, I think it is easier to control people on the online casino. Real life casino is very annoying since there are too many people smoking and drinking drunk, as you said. When you run a real life casino, there are many issues which are hard to solve while they can easily be handled in the online casino. However, I still like to gamble with my friends in my local casino because it has brought me a lot of good feelings
the point are both online casino and real life casino have each advantages, and now it's depend on how your needs . when you think go hangout with your friends and gamble togethe make you have more enterteinment then go for it , but when you have no time to waste walking there to a casino then you would prefer to gamble online with its flexibility.
1816  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin for the rich, not the poor on: February 10, 2017, 10:35:10 AM
The thing is, even though the fees are increasing for the current time, still we can't deny the fact that these increases for the fees are still sustainable and still is nice for moving large sums of money. Though it sucks that it would take a couple hours before you get your tx confirmed if you pay for a small sum but it is what it is; you get the service that you paid for.
if you compare bitcoin fee with another altcoin transaction fee you will see a contrast difference on what op said was unfortunately correct , for examle look at dogecoin , it provide very small transaction fee as low as $ 0.00025 ! see? sometimes people move to altcoin because of this situation and also a very long time your transaction to be confirmed often recently.
1817  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: February 10, 2017, 10:27:29 AM
Well, I think in playing dice those people would think and do some calculations, but I think it is not a strategy, because basically all depends on your luck, and whatever you do, you will not be able to do any strategy, because you can only view it
I disagree a bit with you here, some strategies like martingale and others actually are very good if someone is happy to accept small profits everyday. I mean yes if you want to double your money, maybe martingale is worst but for a 20-30 % profit, I think best is martingale.
though in a longer run no matter how much you play per day you will always lose those money, i would definitely not take the risks to make only small profit
Yeah I completely agree because basically some people give theories like if we generate small profits daily and then stop after a certain amount then we can win in long term while in reality such strategy delay your loss. Its like user is expected to loose after around 10000 bets and rather than making all 10k bets in a single day he makes 500 each day.
no you're wrong , for me it's not considered as delay the loss. but more to managing your bankroll to survive in the long run, even though i know that bankroll management in a game like dice to make profit for long time are in doubt , but at least you have trying.

LOL. he has a point out there, because at the end of the long run, the chance of encountering the long loss streak has a high chance due to the long duration of the gameplay, but actually controlling bankroll per day might survive if the player have self control, just like he will stop playing once he lose his principal money and come back the day after. there are many possibility on gambling, so there is no right or wrong strategy on it.
i am not blaming on wrong or right certain strategy, i blame him for saying play in the long run useless as it's like delay the lost. you get it now? means he have an opinion that everyone have guaranteed to lost in the end , which in my opinion i disagree. feel free to make an argument Wink .
1818  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Excuses on: February 10, 2017, 10:10:36 AM
I gamble to solve my financial problems. I don't have the money either don't have jobs, then gambling is the solution that comes to my self when I already know bitcoin.
Please don't gamble for profit, you WILL lose. Gambling is supposed to be fun, it's not for making money. The odds are always against you, if you continue like this you'll ruin your life, go look for a job if you need money, don't gamble away all that you have left and you'll only worsen your financial problems. Good luck
if you say so then why you want to throw money like that? as i can assume from your statement that gambling can't be profitable then for fun means you lost money there right? if you have a pure thought like that i guess yu have lost alot of money and now you still happy with it?
1819  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: February 09, 2017, 05:57:06 PM
Nope, i never ever had a good luck in gambling. I can make profit at first when i bet on match betting. But only applicable in first 2-3 games, when i won, after that i will lost xd

That is what happening to me too because I'm becoming lucky at the first place but as the game goes on. I keep on losing a lot and that makes me think that I don't have what it takes to be a rich guy in gambling. Because I keep on losing instead of becoming rich and saves a lot of winning it really can't be a way for me to have good fortune in gambling.
you can't become rich through gambling unless there is a lucky on you when you bet huge amount which i doubt a lot of people can do it. so there is below 1 percent of total people who gamble could become rich immediately due their huge winning in gambling. with that fact i guess people shouldn't have too much expectation to become rich.
With 1 percent based on your estimate, that means one has a chance to be rich in gambling. We mostly hear losing experience but that they are not the only people in gambling, there are also winners who are making a fortune in gambling. The main reason why we cannot be rich is because we do not follow the method successful gamblers are doing.
actually everyone have experienced how good get a huge winning , but things that always make a difference are on how someone can manage it to keep in profit until the end of day they retire fom a professional gambling world. rich from gambling only could be achieved on a jackpot games like slots machine or an impossible odds on sportsbetting , that's why i call it below 1 percent.
1820  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: February 09, 2017, 05:35:33 PM
as long as you play on a game that have a house edge which it's has -EV , i'm sure you wouldn't have fun at all and never get profit in the long run. but you can try a game like poker or sportsbetting which has +EV , at least you would have better chance to fight for your luck there instead against house edge that honestly i think it's never ending.

If sportsbetting has EV+ house edge then everyone will win and no one will open up sportsbook site. Does this even make sense to you? because it doesnt to me, you might need to make some math calculation for this. Even if you do few math calculation, you wont really see sportsbet as an EV+ game
of course i do, there a lot of things to do to make sportsbetting +EV , like to looking for a news that could affected the team/player form , statistics , head to head etc all of them need to be analyzed then you would have a +EV there. it's doesn't mean everyone would win just because a game have +EV , then makes sense now?
