So.... how much have you win or loss gambling ?? And what did you stake ?
I've lost about $60 so far but im planning to win it back. Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
A saying well said, however i still need to learn it since my greed is my downfall. Guys and girls
how much money have you made or lost gambling ? Any pointers or warnings ?  
biggest my lose around 15 btc per one bet. But bitcoin price had much less  then now, around 200-250$. First i lose 10btc, next bet i win 7.5 btc and next lose ~15

That is a huge bet i think, i am curious about to know that from where you get more and more bitcoins after loosing 15 BTC than 10 BTC and after that loosing 15 BTC again.. Where you get money? Are you do mining ?
lose 10 , win 7.5 and lose 15). Before this i win above 40 btc in poker for few month.
I think, i was start with few dollars and after 2 month game I had more then 20btc. when I walked in this way, then I several times make bet all-in and win




My story is happy, gambling change my life Smiley
now i lose almost all). But it had great time in my life and I have learned to put up with losses. All that is being done all the better Wink
Nice journey man, you are talking about good bets with big ones, I don't know if I can ever bet that kind of amount in my life as I am not that risk taker and in the first place I cannot afford that bets, I play small bets but still get entertain.
Yes true I did not dare to big bets such as very high risk. I only bet a small amount because I do not want to lose a lot of bitcoin. Although I can win big if the bet huge but I was afraid if lost, ituakan be defeated mesar my opinion and I avoid it.
Yeah its very risky but if you are just thinking that you are just use bitcoin as your chips to gamble you will not thinking that bitcoin is valuable.. and you can try to gamble high amount.. and make a high amount of profit..
Indeed gamble in high quantities for a win will benefit most and win in high amounts. But it is difficult and very risky in my opinion, I would not bet big because if I lose I will lose a lot of my bitcoin.

There is so many girls in gambling why not even Bitcoin world have diversity so girls can make profit or having fun with gambling I have met so many girls in different sites and they are a good gamblers too.
Yes absolutely sure there are girls who gamble well but it was not as much as men. Because interest to gamble far more men than girls. But really I've also found some girls who gamble poker.

Get a job, get a life, get a hobby (except gambling ofc) take a look and read on some site like gamblinghelp.org, ncpgambling.org or anysite like that else maybe it will works. Even when you had no money but if you're addicted to gambling you can't stay away from gambling.

Get a hobby that needs much time is really good for stay away from gambling, like playing online games with your friends. It will makes you forget about gambling.

It all depends upon your reason and purpose of gambling. If you consider it as your bread and butter, then better find a real life job, gambling won't give you those...playing online games could really help, but it is much time consuming and possibly could not learn anything from it, try hobbies that could give you skills... a good example is reconditioning old electronics that you have in the house...
Online games would also lead you to gambling as you can easily access gambling sites online, you should stay away with the internet and do physical activities instead like playing real life sports.

Yeah that's right, online games could also make you feel like you are still gambling. So I think that would just trigger you back to going back to gambling. Yeah, sports and any outdoor activities could make you avoid gambling easy..
Honestly it would be easy to stay away in gambling, you just need to invest your money intended for gambling.

Having that in mind you are forcing yourself to be an investor rather than a gambler,  if you continue to discipline making your investment regularly you will eventually lose interest in gambling especially when you started to see the value of your investment is growing.
Ya might switch from gamblers become very good investors to stay away from gambling. We could focus on investment and reap the rewards. But investing requires precision and who want to invest any bitcoin should be clear and really reliable.
1804  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: July 15, 2016, 02:09:11 PM

well, gambling site owners are lucky enough to have that site but the gamblers are not thinking about the outcome of betting in that site, not knowing that they will loosing a lot of money/bitcoin in just one click. But if that gambler is lucky enough then they will become a winner at the end of the game. But then sometimes you get lucky, you are going to play again right? and then you do not know if you have still that luck or not. So if I were you after winning, stop playing then save your money.
That is already given, gambling sites do win all the time and if you are the owner you are making consistent money. However, it is not that easy to own a gambling sites because you need to develop your site to gain the trust of the gamblers.
Yes if we have the gambling sites will certainly have a lot of money because I believe their profits are very large, and they are a big gambler. But for regular gamblers is very difficult to profit from gambling because we could lose and win.

yes its really hard to own a gambling site, because we need more money/bitcoin in our account so that we can also make our own gambling site but it is really hard to achieve. But if you really want it you will get it as long as you have a patience. I know more years will come to have your own but it is not impossible to have it someday. It is also not bad to dream of what we wanted to have in the future. so continue dreaming. Smiley
Owning a gambling sites is an opportunity to make money consistently but we need to have a good capital in order to start one, maybe if I will be successful in my investment I could try to start my own gambling sites as I believe it is a profitable business with many gamblers already ruin their life because of gambling.
Yes absolutely capital to start gambling site is huge but if successful will get a lot of big profits.
To start gambling sites are also quite difficult to work hard.

gamble or invest hyip and scheme ponzy same risk high risk, but gamble your money control your hand, your investment hyip scheme ponzy control your money is owner hand, gamble high return, investment ponzy profit low under under under profit return in gamble
But your gamble in my opinion can not produce consistently and that is different from that investment can generate. Everything does have a huge risk, but investment risk is smaller than gambling.

I believe they do gamble but majority of the gamblers are boys, I have witness that in our community that girls do play cards like poker game but I don't know if they will be interested in playing online gambling games. Usually girls can be easily convince to stop in gambling because they have less pride than the boys.
Really very little girl to gamble, and even girls can be easy to quit gambling. They gamble just for fun and not think about pleasure can benefit from gambling. Might think something like that girl who gamble.
1808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: July 14, 2016, 01:59:06 PM
Gambling is addicting because people thing they can win but the truth is we can not. there are many strategy which can only slow down our losing time but in the end we know the truth we will lose all of it. in gambling people mind and greed plays a very important role and this is applied to all type of people no matter  if they are foolish or genius they can't win from casino

That is really why gambling is addicting the essence of winning is the reason why people are getting addicted in gambling. But in the end, they are not realizing that gambling is really not the way to earn. That's why they are gambling too, the hope of earning big money into it. But the reality they are not going to earn out of it.
True that causes addiction of gambling is our belief to get around easily. If we win we are excited to get bitcoin very easy, and if we lose we believe we can reverse the defeat gambling. Maybe that's what makes being addicted.
Seems like that is common to everyone, we are thinking of always winning and when we experience winning we have this feeling of greediness that we want for more until we don't know how to stop anymore that ended us losing.
Yes really makes a person addicted to is the greed to earn bitcoin. If we win we will be thrilled to get bitcoin lot with ease, even if we lose we are also confident that we will be able to restore the defeat.
1809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: July 14, 2016, 01:48:08 PM
for me gambling is not a problem actually are the most common when you have no support your family of some expenses i use gambling to double my bitcoin in easy as 123 and it helps me because i can support my self for my daily needs but sometimes im not that too greedy if i think i win 1 time that you think you can win more thats not actualy for its always 30% of winning and 70% of losing it just depends on how you play and you follow your gut

That's not easy, and not healthy too... relying on gambling to support life is not a good idea... At first, yes, you will enjoy it and could possibly win a little while you are not yet abusing yourself and gambling, but days would come that you would realize that you are not gaining anything from it in totality of time that you spend to it.. You should stop now while you are not yet experiencing the downside of it..

totally agreed with this, relying on gambling to support life is not a good idea, what if you lose your bitcoin and you can't win just one time? you cannot support your life if you lose? right? so for me, don't depend on gambling it is really up to you of how you save your money. in your monthly income save some of them also for you to stop gamble. save 30% - 50% of your income and not use it in gamble. the more you save the more you earn Smiley

Yeah, that's right, instead of allocating some part of your salary to gambling, you can just save it, who knows, you might need it in emergencies in the future.Besides, gambling won't guarantee that you'll have a good future.
We have to be patient and not be greedy because continuous savings will give us a good amount of money in the future, put all your money in bitcoin as savings and investment because overtime you will your money grow.
Well, if you care so much about saving your money then you should not go into gambling in order for you to succeed in your saving plan. Gambling is just fun if it will not take to much of your money intended for savings and if we just play it occasionally.

yeah I also do gambling occasionally and not everyday or every other day, I can save money every time  my salary is already in my hands.  Grin. For me, It is better to save than to gamble and then you will just blaming yourself after loosing. savings is much more better in the feeling if you see that your hard works are growing. Smiley
It is true that savings would be better than the issuing of gambling. Gambling has a risk of losing because bitcoin is a game that can be won and lost. Maybe if you still want to gamble a little better bet is to avoid losing a large basis. And most importantly, do not be greedy if we gamble.
1810  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: July 14, 2016, 01:39:58 PM

yes I agree, do not think about winning gamble much just consistent enough been better

its very hard to consistent enough in gambling
this is gambling you can't to get profit always. I think is better to play in gambling you can afford to lose
Consistent gambling without making consistent money is not good, you will not last in gambling and you will not enjoy because you will lose your money in no time, we should think of that risk if we want to enjoy gambling and last in doing it.
Gambling will not make money consistently for sure we will experience victory and defeat. Many people who do not like it if he loses in gambling because it will make them lose a lot but there are also people who enjoy it. Maybe if we want to stay away from gambling we should pause to bet and try something else more enjoyable. Or maybe a small bet to minimize the loss of large bitcoin.

1812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: July 14, 2016, 01:06:37 PM
Gambling is a fun game. So I think gambling is not wrong. This depends on how people will take gambling. If people make gambling is a serious money making a game. Then it is entirely wrong; You can not make any profit unless you put a lot of risk in gambling. But if you take it as fun then it is good for you. No much risk needed a year just control yourself and enjoy the game. So according to me, Gambling is not wrong.
If you will not try gambling you will not feel the effect of gambling, so when we decided to try it we should accept whatever the outcome is, we need to be a man to face the challenge and accept the result.
you do not have to try gambling to know the effects of gambling. You only need to read about gambling and it already knows the effects of gambling. such as drugs, whether you should try drugs to know the effect? I do not think so. because everyone can know from the experience of others.

It is really depend of a person, some people needs experience for them to know what is the effect of what they doing. But some people do not need that experience because they totally understand what will happen to them if they do it and which is good because they do not need to lose something for them to realise if its good or bad.
As a gambler we should learn to accept our loses because in gambling it is not always win, most of the time we lose so we need to control ourselves to handle the feeling, I know no one is happy with losing but for a gambler that is fully entertain he can easily recover from loses.
Very true gambling games that can only make us winning and losing, it depends on luck, respectively. If we consider the gambling we can earn money and it depends very wrong and can become stressed when defeat and a lot to lose.
1813  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: July 14, 2016, 01:02:25 PM
Very few will ever become rich from gambling and even if they did then, they would soon lose it all back gambling so it would be pointless them becoming rich in the first place.
No one's get rich in gamble, those who see that profit in big amounts is already rich. Imagine, they hold a big amount of bankroll that will also result to a big amount of profit.
If you want to have a decent chance to win in gambling you need to set up a good amount of bankroll, that will help you to be in the winning path because you can never be too lucky in gambling betting small winning big.
Maybe if you want to gamble with a lot of results and can make the rich are gambling poker and sports betting. The results are very many and it depends on the expertise we played and viewed. Bet with reasonable care and do not get greedy, it will be easier to get a win in gambling.
1814  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: July 12, 2016, 10:19:41 AM
that's right might better to be quite to avoid any interest being hacked or being point out
I also think that there's already someone became rich by doing just gambling in sports
and casino btc online.
although many people say that it is likely to become rich very small and many people say that gambling is going to ruin your life. but in the world of gambling outside you do not know what happened. where you think the ball mafia make money? they certainly rich from playing soccer betting

Ya might like soccer betting and poker is gambling easier than other gambling. Because the results can be seen clearly so we have to play smart and guesses. But still gambling games that can make us win or lose. Chances are we losing too great, if asked to be rich in gambling I can answer, but it is not forever. And if we're being greedy we will suffer losses.
1815  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do Girls also gamble? on: July 12, 2016, 10:15:11 AM
I want to know that girls also gamble?

If yes then it looks like the number of female gamblers is negligible with respect to male gamblers. why?

Maybe yes girls also gamble, but it's really rare to find that and i'm sure she won't tell anybode if she do gamble. It's like a rare activity by a woman.
True, I think there are some women around here who gamble for sure but they would be much more shy than man to share with others about their gambling hobby. Though I think among all gamblers only 10% would be women. Not ready to risk their hard earned bitcoins might be another reason.

Yes it really was gambling dominated by men, but it is also possible if the girl is also a gamble. There are some girls who like gambling at a casino. Perhaps the interest factor that makes the girl who gamble a bit.
1816  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: July 12, 2016, 10:04:44 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?
We all know that it can do both but the chance is allot bigger that it will mess up your life because the chance is just bigger that you will lose.
Only gamble when you know that you got money to lose other wise you will wreck your life.
The chances of becoming rich in gambling is too low to consider doing it, but the rate of people losses their job and family is high due to gambling, so you need to make your choice.
Yes it can if so addicted to gambling. If we gamble we will definitely be looking for a win and not realized it was defeat many times. If we are addicted we will do anything to gambling. It is no good if we are greedy and addicted to gambling.
1817  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: July 12, 2016, 10:01:46 AM
Use your willpower and say: "i will not gamble anymore!"
Do you think that once a gambler always a gambler? No its not. use your willpower
http://m.wikihow.com/Increase-Your-Willpower
Yes, willpower can save us. And also our families can help us. In gambling controlling, ourself is critical, but no one will follow this. All people will become greedy when they are playing gambling. So if we control, ourself means we can come out from this gambling.
As there was told, that is a human nature to see easiest and highest profits in gambling. People more would like do nothing and get from that a lot of money, then do something and get some money. That is the nature. And willpower, about which you have said here, is a will and power to change the nature. Just our willpower, work on ourselves and support of close people will help us in our nature.
Your will power or determination is important but sometimes if you know what are your weakness, like for example my weakness is I WOULD gamble whatever I have in my blockchain wallet, then in that case I will simply avoid keeping any money there Smiley

Stay away from gambling is not an easy thing, especially if someone is already addicted. If someone is already addicted to gambling they definitely want to try continuously to gain the victory, and it will make someone will lose many of their bitcoin. Maybe if you want to stay away from gambling must have the intention and taking seriously though it is difficult.
1818  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: July 12, 2016, 09:44:47 AM
waiting for a few amounts of bitcoin to go up then hopefully buy a established business. i tried to lend my loans to members over on this website and no one seems to apply. I hope someone can come up with innovative ways on increasing bitcoins
Yes, I have no plans to get rich with bitcoins but I have a agenda of earning as much bitcoins as possible.

I am doing a lot of works like I tried captchas and other works, which I feel like they too bad to have them for a consideration towards the motivation of becoming rich. I left them and still moving forward for better opportunities.

I too, my first agenda is getting a much of bitcoin become my funds to become a rich.

but I never trying a captcha because it's too waste my energy. You're correct they are too bad, there is another way is better rather than them. try to large think.
There are many ways to get bitcoin quickly. As the signature campaign, trade, investment, selling services. But I think the easiest is with the signature campaign, because we can get bitcoin regularly and I really like it. Continue to diligently collect bitcoin is a way to get rich here.
1819  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: July 11, 2016, 09:39:24 AM
I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!
It's not easy to just tell that to some people. Addiction can manifest itself in many forms, psychiatric help is often required to help some people.
No one can help you I believe until you find a reason to quit gambling, and once you have found that reason, for example : Because I cannot pay attention to studies, then surely you would be able to leave gambling.

Help is important but in the end the person who is addicted should decide to stop. That's the first step of a long process.
A process many fail to undertake unfortunately.
making this decision can't be done in a short time it is a long process like rehabilitation process.
addiction into gambling really needs to be warned,. quit while you still have time.

Really? So gambling and drugs are almost the same? Because you said it is like need to be rehabilitate?  I Gamble yes, but I dont feel that I need that rehabilitation. Yes some of gamblers are out of control but is there now a rehabilitation center like for them?
Perhaps he meant gambling and drug similar since both can be addictive. But if to rehabilitate I feel no need. Because gambling is a game that we can play anytime. Maybe that was the problem if greedy in gambling.

Yes, both drugs and gambling are really addictive, because I really heard a lot of stories that they are really out of control of using a drugs and playing gambling. But I don't use drug, but I know to gamble and I just gamble if I just want to. And I don't know that there's out there has a rehabilitation centre for addicted in gambling.

There are centers for all kind of addictions even for gambling addictions, I think the combination of  a drug addiction and a gambling addiction is even worse.
Gambling is very addicted this is because of the enjoyment you are having playing it, due to this you always have to keep yourself in control of it!

Yes, I agree with you, that the happiness that we felt in gambling is the trap of being a addicted person. and also the money involved in it. because once you became a winner then you will gain profit and you will felt the happiness that we really wanted to feel. That's the time we will start greedy in money. yes not all people but some of the time.
Yes maybe if people gamble they only think of their victory without realizing they've lost a lot bitcoin. The obsession for victory can make people become greedy in gambling.
1820  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: July 11, 2016, 09:12:42 AM
Yeah, it is quite a problem, when people make themselves to forget that they can lose and remember only about winnings. That's why often people think that they are unbeatable and then gambling beats them. Everyone must not just know that they can win and lose, but also remember about that (especially about losses).
I think that is human nature when it comes to gambling, because we don't want to accept to ourselves that we are losing yet we tend to play more to win more, we still lose because we failed to track our record.
Yeah right sometimes people forget that they had when gambling already lost a lot and when they forget their defeat to win ago. Maybe because the gamble seems to me looking for a win, so if they win they will be satisfied (maybe). It would be very difficult to me to stay away from the bitcoin.
