1861  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which coin do you think is best for gambling? on: March 09, 2018, 03:20:06 PM
Bitcoin is always the best option for gambling, the only problem is that the fee is too high now. I think XRP and XLM, it will be good choices.
At this time? No, it's not the best option to gamble while the price of bitcoin is currently falling. The fees of bitcoin now aren't too expensive and you can pay 20 sats per byte so that's affordable and unlike before when bitcoin is on all time high, the fees were crazy.

What is the relation between gambling and bitcoin price falling?

For each session, I fix a certain amount of money to spend on gambling so I spend an equal amount in cryptos. If prices are high then I will spend fewer coins and if prices are low then I will spend slightly more coins. So I don't understand why one shouldn't spend bitcoins for their entertainment purpose if prices are low.
You said it right. But if the gambler is really an intense one and no one can stop him and his on the stage of craving there's no need to ask why he should spend bitcoins whether the price is high or low. He will gamble and he will not care about the prices.

For me, in measuring whether the coin to be used in gambling is good or not, I use the confirmation time benchmark. Delays caused by the relatively long confirmation time will make the gamblers lose their mood and can be bad for their game. So, the faster the confirmation time, the better the coin will be used in gambling.

A failure in gambling website will always look for another new website to make fortune on it because he will think every new site seems to be great for making money but I don't think so even if we don't have enough luck it is completely waste of looking for multiple websites.

By moving to other casino after faced a painful lost, gambler wish to be able to forget the previous bad experience and hoping for better luck at the new place. Gambling for sure will depend solely on luck and by moving to other site, a gambler is making an effort to chase his luck. Imo, nothing is wrong with such effort.
1863  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think you are a gambling expert? on: March 09, 2018, 05:05:57 AM
I just want to know how you feel when you get a big win from the gambling you play, I know that feel is definitely fun.
But, do you feel or ever assume you are a gambling expert after you get a big win?
Then what kind of gambling has made you think of yourself as a gambling expert?
Winning gambling always makes me so excited but the most difficult to handle in gambling is when you are constantly loosing your game. This is so anoing particularly if you gamble with the money that you cannot afford to lose.

There's a simple fix for that, never, never gamble with money that you can't afford to lose.. That's just insane and will only put you in a bad spot almost all the time.

If you continue to just lose you just take a step back and look at what you are doing, perhaps change your game or take a break for a while.

The excitement in gambling can make us pursue that feeling over and over again. And sometimes it will break our own plan on not to gamble with the money we can't afford to lose. The ability to control our emotions both in winning and losing is what we should try to do.
1864  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: March 09, 2018, 02:39:24 AM
There are many ways to stop that if everything is mentioned it will be very long. But the important thing is not the way, but the important thing is you, how strongly do you want to stop gambling? when there's still some doubt in you to stop gambling, you'll never stop. You must have read many ways to quit, and all that works, so it all depends on you again.

Of course all will depend on each person to be able to stop gambling behavior. No matter how great a method to stop gambling is used, if someone is still not 100% sure with his intention, the method will surely fail.
1865  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Difference between Bitcoin and real money? on: March 08, 2018, 01:41:10 PM
Bitcoin is an investment. Values can go up or down even in a short period of time while real money is the currency we use to sustain our lives and its value will remain stable. Although bitcoin can also be used as a means of payment but its use is still very limited.
1866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: March 08, 2018, 12:31:39 PM
Proper stock investing is not the same as gambling. Investing in shares is a legal and legal investment.

Yes the most striking difference between trading and gambling is its legality. In some countries gambling is marked as illegal activity while trading is legal in almost all parts of the world. But frankly, as to whether gambling is arguably part of gambling or not will depend on the trader itself. This is because there are many people who trade but do not have fixed guidelines and tend to do it speculatively. For those people, even if they are practically trading, they are actually gambling.
1867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ways casinos cheat on: March 08, 2018, 08:27:38 AM
I am not an IT but I believe some casinos do cheat to win and that is why we have this blockchain and it's widely use in gambling
because it's more transparent and it has renewed the reputation of the gambling sites.
Nowadays, gamblers are also more educated because they do not blame casinos on their loses, instead they accept it because
the house always win due to the house edge.

How can use of another payment medium (blockchain as mentioned by you) going to stop cheating in casinos. They are cheating in the games not with the money deposits or withdrawals. However, I think that the number of casinos doing this will be very less. If a big casino with lot of experienced users start doing this, the players will notcie this sooner or later. Once this report this to the authorities, the license of that casino might get cancelled.

Yes, if an online casino cheats, the possibility of cheating will be revealed more quickly because online casino can be accessed by anyone and from anywhere. There are a lot of smart people out there who are ready to uncover a cheating committed by a casino if that happens.
1868  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: March 08, 2018, 04:22:06 AM
If you're just starting, I recommend trading firstsince it is safer and you can do your own research to predict the outcome. Gamble only with extra money since it is very risky. You will either earn a lot or lose a lot.

Trading is also risky especially for newbie because I believe their emotional control ability is still untested especially when faced with difficult situations. For example when the price drops dramatically. Most newbie will immediately cut their losses for fear the price will drop further. It would be better to start trading from below, using less money as a learning step.
1869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Walk of Shame on: March 07, 2018, 01:21:57 PM
Did anyone here have experience a walk of shame (Walking home since you have a loss all your gambling money in just one snap)? Well, It did happen to me once and I'll never do that again. It was the bad year for me (Peek of my addiction), I normally left my atm/credit card at home if I were to visit a casino and have enough money wih some changes for my stay, food, drink and my fare. The first time it happens to me is when I was so frustrated because I can't win up to point I already spent my allocated money for my fare. I was devastated that I need to go home at 3 a.m. with no money literally and I haven't got a phone in me (which make it worst). Started walking from the casino going home it was the longest walk I ever made I pity myself and upon arriving at home my wife and my kids are already awake, I just can't bare to look at them. I don't even know what to say at that point. I just walk in shame, in front of my kids.

How about you, have experienced it? We all have different interpretation on "Walk of shame".

Similar experiences I have experienced in the past. At that time I lost the money I was supposed to use to pay the bills. Forcefully and with embarrassment, I had to tell everything to my father in the hope that my father would give me the money to replace the money I had lost at gambling.
1870  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Europa League/Champions League Lounge on: March 07, 2018, 12:25:01 PM
Well, I was slightly disappointed by the scoreless draw at Anfield. Can't remember the last time we played the first half without forcing a save or block on target. I know, we should be celebrating our first QF appearance at Champions League since 2009... man that does feel good. But perhaps it's good to see Klopp finally do the rational thing by resting the key players for good old Mourinho.

Tonight, I just have one bet: I'll back the Old Lady to win the game tonight... but the ML odds @2.48 are not as good as backing them to progress @2.95! So here's Higuain for a solitary goal before they shut the game out!

Yeah it was a boring game but the job was done in the 1st leg, you could tell the normal intensity wasn’t there to press their defenders high up the pitch. At least Mo & Van Dijk will be fresh for the Man Utd game. Firmino only llayed an hour too.

I hope you’re right & Juve go through tonight, I don’t fear Spurs as a potential 1/4 final opponent but I’d rather play Juventus than Spurs.

Yes, the match between Liverpool against FC Porto is a boring game. That's because the aggregate in the first leg was so wide. And regarding the match tonight between Tottenham against Juventus I think and I hope it will be more interesting. I prefer to wait until the first half finish to start making a decision on what event I will bet on.
1871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If gambling is illegal in your country, would you still gamble? on: March 07, 2018, 08:08:36 AM
Gambling is Illegal here. For anyone who still gambles, they have to gamble in secret. There's no other choice, if we gamble too open, it's risky to get caught and in jail. Therefore we have to gamble while hiding, online gambling is one solution so that we can gamble more safely.

Thanks to cryptocurrency that makes gambling even more easier nowadays. It feels a bit safer than the traditional one. Gambling is marked as illegal activity too here in my place and I wish I won't get any problem because of it.
1872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why kyc is even required? on: March 06, 2018, 01:59:22 PM
People would have been hesitant to undergo and submit their papers to undergo verification because this will expose their personal infos however in the long run this can benefit the client. This can serve as their protection if ever their accounts would be suspected. However gambling sites /industry should ensure the confidentiality of client's accounts. And that it should not be used to go against their rights
KYC in gambling is a nightmare for players. It won't benefit at all. To my knowledge, when a gambling site asks for the identity of the player, there must be something wrong with the user. For those of us who play normally, we do not have to worry that gambling sites will ask us for something similar.
1873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: March 06, 2018, 10:17:08 AM
It's good to have a positive mindset and to always think that you would win because having this kind of mentality would 'attract' and according to the law of attraction: "you attract what you think". However, it's also important to learn acceptance. I think a gambler should also have this in their mindset otherwise they would have a hard time accepting the losses they will have. Let's face it; it's inevitable to lose in gambling. If a gamblers chooses to accept that they will eventually lose, it's going to be less harder for him.
Be sure also that you are realistic as well.
It's good to be optimistic because you will challenge yourself that will lead to improvement,
however since the risk is really high, its important to know your limit and manage your money effectively.
Very important is to have your control, mindset can be set in a positive way so even you lose the game you are still positive and looking forward,
what is important is you know when to quit and how much money you can afford to lose and how much money you also aiming to earn before leving
the house, a gambler's always looking for gains that's possible if you have a positive approach and good self control.

If we aren't rely on the result of our gambling activity, I mean whether we lose or win our financial won't be affected, then we already have a good mindset in gambling and I am sure gambling will never ruin our life.
1874  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you support the Use of Bitcoin as a National Currency? on: March 06, 2018, 05:25:21 AM
While it is good news for Bitcoin users/hodlers that countries allow the use of Bitcoin as a means of transactions within their border, what will be your position if a country decides to take a step further by using Bitcoin as its national currency?

For now and some time to come, it is impossible for my government to allow the use of bitcoin as a means of payment. If for some reason they allow it, I certainly would not simply agree to it. The bitcoin price is very volatile and that is why it will face a lot of problem if bitcoin will be used as a means of payment for every stuffs out there.
1875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: March 05, 2018, 04:24:35 PM
Determination and by the help of someone who you really treat  important part of your life will make quitting much easier,

This is easy to say than done. I've seen a lot of gamblers who became addicted and wanted to get out but they can't. They are determined and surrounded by the people very important to them but they still find it difficult. Though, it could help to lessen the process period but not making it much easy.
 


If I may say, when someone has decided to stop gambling and there are other people who help him achieve his wishes but still difficult for him to stop, it would be better for him to find someone who is expert in handling addiction. Imo, there is no other way for such person except to seek for expert help.

I found this post of Baryom from Bitsler forum that might help answer some question about faucets and its limitations that was raised here. https://forum.bitsler.com/topic/view/0678c766b7 Hope it helps.

In that post, he mentioned that - Only for earnings from faucets, we reserve the right not to authorize withdrawals.

It is very clear that their faucet money is something like a play money because players can't make money out of it.


Yes, no one will be able to withdraw the money they won from just faucet. Users have to deposit and wagering their own money in the last few months if they want to get the benefit from faucet. This is done to suppress faucet abusers!


Whoever playing with their faucet money better don't waste your time.

It applies on every gambling sites that have faucet feature!

no not with every site Smiley Luckygames site is giving withdrawals without deposite Cheesy but nothing wrong its diffrent rules with diffrent websites Cheesy

I think even crypto-games also will not block the account just because people making money from the faucet. It only Bitsler is following this idea of blocking accounts only after people make money from the faucet but it their rule so we can't do anything.

I doubt that the site you mentioned above will let their users do the faucet farming. Every site as I stated before will definitely fight it, when and how will depend on the owner of the sites. The policy may differ from one site to another.
1877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Europa League/Champions League Lounge on: March 05, 2018, 07:56:38 AM
Some big games will be presented a few days to come at UCL that is between PSG vs Real Madrid and Tottenham vs. Juventus. I will start betting and focus in those two matches by placing a bet on the outcome of the two matches will be on top of the 2 goals as each competing team should get two more goals to qualify for the next round.

Tottenham vs Juventus I think will be the best game of the week. A draw in the first leg (2-2) is certainly the result that still provides an opportunity for both to compete. This means Juventus have to win the game if they want to qualify for the next round while Tottenham certainly will not let Juventus steal their big chances.
1878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: March 04, 2018, 02:47:37 PM
A big match is coming up EPL.It's Chelsea vs Man City.Manchester city is the current leader of EPL and Chelsea is on no 5.Though city is far behind from rest of all the team but they can't take Chelsea easily.They are in very good form and they have made a draw against Barcelona recently.But my favourite on this match is Man City.Because they are passing a good time On EPL and most probably they will win this year title also.So,I will bet for Manchester city.

Normally a match between Chelsea and City is supposed to be very exciting but this seems a deadrubber match.

Chelsea is already out of title race and I'm sure thier players would have already conceded defeat.

Conte and his tactics are not working and he has no dressing room support, can Chelsea yet do a Goliath, well Willian's and Hazard two can.

I expect city to win 3-0, if Chelsea fight back 2-1.

I am expecting something big from Chelsea this night. I hope they will fight hard for the sake of prestige and open the chances to be the big four at the end of the season. I want to see them perform in the champions league next season.

I feel cheated by this site, of all that I have played I had never happened to lose 16 moves in a row playing 45% of luck the game of dice, and also 9 times in a row to 49%, can someone clarify how it is possible this? It is assumed that playing 45% of luck of 100 plays would have 45 won and 55 losses, however I have had 67 losses and 33 won.

I feel robbed and cheated by fortunejack

If there is a guarantee that from 100 rolls at 45% you will get 45 wins and 55 loses, then the casino will go bankrupt since the first day they operate.
