I think this is very common to almost all gamblers who have families because once they got addicted to gambling that's when they started to forsake their families. Maybe your dad didn't mean anything bad but to help in keeping the lifestyle that you have without realizing that he got to addicted too much and forgot the family. Well, we can't turn back time I guess what matter most now is for you not to make the same mistake again and don't let gambling have control over you incase you wanted to go back gambling.
1842  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has this year be favourable to you? on: May 20, 2019, 08:14:08 AM
This year has been really favourable for me. I have (more than) doubled up my deposits so far. I've locked away my initial deposits to make sure I'm not going to lose money  Cheesy.


Wow, that's pretty awesome to have gained more than double of your deposits, you must have been very lucky this year to have won such. Just wondering, i've red multiple post about gambling about luck but some says that they uses strategy, with your winnings more than double do have any strategies  that you perhaps share or you would agree with most people that it is pure luck?
1843  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling addiction a disease? on: May 19, 2019, 06:16:34 PM
I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction?
Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted?
Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not.
What do you think?

No, because it won't kill people just like drugs. At least, not directly. And gambling is easier to stop, not like drug addiction who needs a rehabilitation to stop it.

I disagree, gambling can kill the gambler, example if the gambler is so addicted that they will stay at the casino for days and don’t eat or anything, that alone can be deadly because the person don’t have enough rest some may result to heart attack. I know no rehabilitation for addict gamblers but I think it would be a good idea to have one as to help them control their addiction or for gamblers to have more self control.
1844  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any valid reason to continue gambling? on: May 19, 2019, 05:23:48 PM
There are a lot of reasons why a gambler would continue gambling such as to make money, to relieve stress or for entertainment, to recover losses and whatever reason there maybe but i’m not sure if these reasons can be considered valid because with the aforementioned reasons other solution can be done to resolve them but people still opt to gambling when in fact in gambling, the chances of winning is very low and it is not fit to make a living. Maybe the correct thought of it is that people want to have results right away meaning they wanted to have profits right away instead of going a long way to get it. I think they see gambling as a shortcut to a better life without really thinking of a possibility that it might be the one who’ll drag them down to the ground because again it’s pure luck, no strategy can be done to guarantee your winning.
1845  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some unique advantages of online gambling ? on: May 19, 2019, 04:55:07 PM
That is very right. You can play at home at your own convenience time at any online casino you want. Countless benefits can be attributed to online gambling. But one good benefit for me is, playing in various casinos using a small amount of money. You can go from one site to another without spending a lot of money.

That is truth, really good reason in fact.

No casino can beat the online ones in convenience, also casinos implement some features to try to encourage you to spend more and you normally do because you want more excitement and that is ok when sharing with someone you love preferably and with moderation and keeping some sort of control and balance but if you will do it alone and/or want to save and have fun with not so much money then it's perfect.

For excitement, i prefer really good MMOs and regular Casinos in this case.

I couldn’t agree more, I believe convenience is the major reason why most people opt to do online gambling rather than going to a casino. Online gambling also provides a lot of bonuses and some even provide loyalty points, aside from that there are also free casino games that you can play with to practice and for you to be familiarize with the game before spending your real money.
1846  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do people but bigger bets in sports compared to other type of gambling? on: May 19, 2019, 03:26:51 PM
I think because they know the teams so well that they have higher chances of betting on the right team, in short it is easy to know who will win based on the teams performance or history unlike other games wherein it will only be about luck and you cannot really predict the outcome of you bet. This means that people tend to gamble higher on things that they know they have higher chances of winning rather than gamble on something that has a below low percentage of winning.
1847  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you do to calm down you're anger? on: May 19, 2019, 03:10:44 PM
What I normally do is I keep silent and distance from the person i’m angry with and try to think things over and after a few minutes i’ll be fine and forget what happened. Kidding aside, I didn’t really forget its just that i’m calmed down and I was able to talk with the person in a good way and so long as he/she says sorry sincerely then everything will be fine. Sometimes I listened to music, it also helps in calming your senses.  Smiley
1848  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories and Possible Solutions on: May 19, 2019, 12:32:27 PM
That is true. Gambling addiction cannot be fought alone. The only true way is to talk about it to friends and family and ask professional help. The casino will not care, it just wants your money. The addicted person also should be aware that he is addicted and should also desire and want to get helped from professionals.

I agree, the casino won't bother to help because they will benefit from the money that person is betting. The only problem here is that if the person who is addicted to gambling that much will listen to the advise of his/her family or from professionals, most people I know who are addicted won't listen to any advises because from their point of view is it nothing out of the norm, it is very important that the person who is addicted to gambling should have self awareness to fixed his addiction because if he is not aware that he is already addicted then the efforts to help him even from professionals will be useless.
1849  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Avoid trading unless you are sure of what you do on: May 19, 2019, 07:00:20 AM
If you want to be successful in trading it is important to know the rules and how trading works because if you don't have the knowledge it may cost you a lot because trading is something that you have to study first before investing. Trading for me is not like a joke that you can just invest here and there without really knowing even the basics because if you do that then your not only wasting your time but also your money.
1850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you save money while playing gambling games? on: May 19, 2019, 03:58:57 AM
The best way for you to save money is quit gambling, when you gamble you spend money instead of saving it, thus, try your best to have self control over gambling because if you don't then you can't save any, you might end up losing all the money you've saved so far. I would suggest you quit right away to avoid anymore losses because as what I understood you're not winning as well in gambling, when you know your not getting anything and your money is limited that's a big sign to quickly stop gambling or else you'll be broke as hell, I tell you.
1851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What importance is kyc In gambling section on: May 19, 2019, 02:13:45 AM
The purpose and objective of KYC is to prevent fraud, money laundering and to imply the security measures which is necessary for both users and the gambling site. It will benefit us though it sometimes causes us hassle. It's important for the monitoring of legit transactions as well.

I couldn't agree more, It's good that the gambling site is doing that because it only means they wanted to protect the gamblers as well from fraud. KYC is very important because it can make the gambler and the owner to feel at ease knowing that all people using the website has been fully verified. It might be bothersome to fill out but just look at the bright side of it of being secure.
1852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling.. way to loss on: May 18, 2019, 04:00:03 PM
Well yeah, you need knowledge about the game you want to gamble with but your winning does not rely on that knowledge. Gambling is based mostly on luck and no strategy can predict or can guarantee your winning. That's why, do it for fun and just enjoy the small gains that you might get out of it, don't put too much effort in figuring out a strategy because it'll stress you.
1853  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you know game like pusoy or tongits? on: May 18, 2019, 03:33:56 PM
I do know tongits there's an application or game tongitz wars but i'm not really sure about gambling real money to it because I haven't played it using my own money. I played before for fun and they give you like money in the game that you can use to bet and if incase your not lucky and you've list everything they give you another fund. Cheesy
1854  Economy / Economics / Re: become rich by bitcoin. on: May 18, 2019, 03:05:09 PM
I do not understand what you mean by this topic, from what I understand, you say that Bitcoin is a scam, and that people become rich by fraud? right?

I agree, it seems that he is trying to say that bitcoin is some kind of fraud or scam when in fact the people who invested in bitcoins are legit people who didn't do anything wrong but to invest and make money through bitcoin.  well, it is true that some people may have obtained bitcoins through scam but its very unfair to generalize those scammers from not scammers. Besides bitcoin is not a scam and also scam also is present on other currencies.
1855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Outside risk: similarities between gambling and trading? on: May 18, 2019, 12:11:35 PM
I do think gambling and trading are pretty similar in some aspects, one is they both give immediate rewards and results, meaning if you gamble lets say in a casino you'll know the results right after the game same as trading, if you invest on something you'll know the results mostly by end of the day. Second is both rely on luck as well, I know most traders will say they have strategies that helped them in getting better with trading but it is also luck.
1856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Happy accidents on: May 18, 2019, 09:33:20 AM
My gambling happy incident is when I played online roulette, I didn't notice the amount of my bet, I thought I had it on minimum amount of bet but it's already late that I realized that the bet was set to the maximum, good thing I won that round, if not I would be broke now.
1857  Economy / Economics / Re: Don't stress too much due to the bear market on: May 18, 2019, 07:17:54 AM
These charts are useful for guessing the next step but it's impossible to know for sure when the next bull run is going to happen. Most of us thought it started a week ago, until that dump happened

I agree, regardless of what we are seeing now we can't really tell what will happen n the next few days or year. The market trend right now is normal and it is not something that we should stress about because we had that scenario before and the market was able to bounce back, so I have trust that the market will then bounce back this time.
1858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - A Game of Luck or Strategy on: May 18, 2019, 06:29:41 AM
Best on my observation, gambling is ore of a game of luck rather that a strategy, no one is able to predict what is going to happen in the game. That is why gambling should be done only for fun and not for a living because whatever strategy you use, its not a guarantee that you will win.
1859  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling Versus Traditional Gambling on: May 18, 2019, 01:03:20 AM
Well, its true that going to traditional casino is good because you got to see other people and it’s fancy but I still prefer online gambling because I don’t really like going to fancy casinos and it is very convenient gambling online.
1860  Economy / Economics / Re: Future of Bitcoins - What will happens to BTC on: May 17, 2019, 11:50:59 PM
Bitcoin have stayed the king of cryptocurrency for years now, the trend might be fluctuating now but it’s normal, despite whats going on bitcoin managed to be on top. I really think that bitcoin will have a very bright future. Don’t think too much about what will happen in the future, focus on what you can do today, just relax and enjoy the hype while you can.
