Here’s what I do. If the amount they are asking for is something I can afford to lose I just give them, knowing I may or may not get my money back. When you look at it this way, you can easily evaluate the situation and give them a answer that puts you in a safe place without having a guilty conscience and straining the relationship.

It shouldn't be any other way, in my opinion. Everyone has his own problems to deal with. Everyone needs money for solving those problems. Some people think that their problems are more important than anyone else's, and there are rare cases when it's true, and then we should act according to the situation, but most of the time you shouldn't lend more than you care to lose.

To me, the best to play slots is when you feel like it. With sports betting it's different, but since we are talking about slots here, my answer is: play when you want to unwind, when you want to relax from the stress of the daily hustles, from your work, or you just want to have fun but have no time for going to a club, or cinema, or to a picnic. Apart from having no time, it is possible that you cannot afford to spend $20 at the moment. That's when online slots come in handy. Betting with $0.10 at once, you can have your fun, and spend just $5 on it.

There was a time where Elon musk is afraid of Robots with AI capabilities, saying they are dangerous to humans, there was a rumour about some incident where a robot threatened to crush him, I don't know how true is this, but not too long ago even the Microsoft boss Bill Gates is very concerned about the harms that AI could bring on humanity, saying something like AI might decides that humans are a threat. We do we go from here?
Experts certainly better understand what threats will be received with the existence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology.  behind these benefits there is a real threat that we can see together as soon as possible, try to imagine if all industries including manufacturing use AI services because it can replace the human role, there will be a lot of reductions in employees and in the future there will be a reduction in jobs and it will definitely happen

AI will never replace humans completely. Artificial intelligence operator will be a highly sought-after job in the future. No one will leave the fate of humanity in the hands of AI. Why? Because they, AIs, they don't care, and it's easier to reprogram an AI to do some harm than a human being.

But in a perfect world I would hope for someone with above 100x odds to win and bring me good profit. Smiley

There are a few whose odds are >100x. The first name that comes to my mind at this point is that of Bernie Sanders. From the GOP side, we have Josh Hawley, Kevin McCarthy, Donald Trump Jr, Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin. From the Dems we have Tammy Duckworth, Joe Manchin, Amy Klobuchar and Hillary Clinton. At this point, the odds for most of these candidates are very low, but at least for some of them, it will change as the election date approaches. So you may or may not turn lucky, if you select any of these candidates.

I'm pretty sure that Bernie Sanders has zero chances, he will not run for president because the age.  Josh Hawley and Sarah Palin, they have even less chances than Bernie Sanders. Gambling sites don't even accept bets on them, as far as I know. Kevin McCarthy, on the other hand, worth a small bet, imo, because the odds right now, 101.00, are pretty good. And it's not like he has zero chances. I bet 10 cents on him, just in case. Smiley
1927  Economy / Gambling / Re: Freebitco.in - FUN Token Investment Experiment on: April 04, 2023, 10:43:34 AM
Yep, I think so too. There was time in 2018 when FUN token costed $0.19. And I'm not talking about the initial pump, $0.34 on the 1st of July 2017, I'm talking about the time more than a year later, when after dropping to $0.013 in November 2017 FUN token had risen to $0.19 in September 2018. Since FUN is not dead and has over $70 million trading volume, it can be somewhere around $0.20 in the future again. I'm not encouraging you to start investing in FUN token all your money, but investing a dollar or two, why not? Just for fun. Smiley

$71 million is the current market cap of the FUN token, while the daily trading volume is less than $1 million. Honestly, it seems unrealistic to me that the FUN token can grow up to 20 cents in the future. I assume that even 5 cents per token might be a very difficult task, given the current situation in the altcoin market. The developers would probably have to either come up with some new unique updates for the token or find a new way to significantly reduce the circulating supply.

Well, I know from the history of Bitcoin that in the beginning no one believed it could be somewhere around 1 USD, and  when BTC reached $1 in April 2011 there was a crash after that because people thought it was a temporary thing. We all know what happened several years later. So, yeah, if developers will come up with some new unique updates, or for some other reasons(and I don't think it will be the reducing of circulating supply), FUN token still can reach many ATHs in the future. In the world of crypto we just can't be sure about anything.
1928  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: April 04, 2023, 09:44:26 AM
For me there are few obstacle. First is job. Im a teacher my salary is really small. I want to switch career but i need to study hard. Second, im kinda helping my family to pay some bills. I still live on my parents home. Third, i have girlfriend that i want to marry as soon as possible. Maybe after i get a better job i can solve other 2 problems.

Marry her, man. Living together you spend less on many things than living by each own. Just think of it, and you'll figure out it yourself. In my opinion, one of the biggest obstacles to achieving financial freedom is thinking that you are not ready for something, marriage included. If you have three problems, solve the easiest one first. Finding a good paying job isn't the easiest one, that's what I'm sure of.
Life is not that easy after marriage too. But if you have a good partner then you both can manage well
and finding a good partner is not an easy task these days - if you luckily find a good partner value them

No one is saying life is easy. But we are not having a philosophical discussion here, rather, it's an economic one. From an economic perspective, it's easier for two persons of some low income to live together than separately. This way you spend less money on heating, Wi-Fi, cable TV ... And regarding food, it's cheaper to cook for two ... There are tons of reasons why it's better to unite, especially if you love each pther.

~

Once, I tried to catch the jackpot for fun. I chose the minimum bet size(2 sats) and won a small prize, only 10k sats. It's worth noting that I didn't use any strategies but just set the auto-bet option and hoped for luck. Overall, I think I got lucky that time, as it took me only ~2,5k tries to see the cherished 8888 on the screen. Of course, if I had known when I would get lucky, it would have made sense to use max bet to get 1 BTC in that case. Grin



Hitting the Jackpot even if just only once is better than never. Seeing the cherished 8888 when you hunt for it is something, innit? I myself hit Jackpot 2 times, once it was 10k sats and another time it was 100k.



But it's not like I'm hunting for it all the time. Far from that. I do it less than once in a year, and the current couple of days are those days. Today I didn't hit it, but at least I got my money back, more or less.







...
Not exactly Jackpot, but pretty close, huh? Smiley
...

Yes, 8889 is pretty close! I didn't play for the jackpot (I just checked, and 600 satoshis were spent on the jackpot (easy to check, just click on personal stats and there is "spent on jackpot")). I think it's pretty hard to hit this jackpot, I thought about chasing that jackpot a bit more seriously several times, but I guess I didn't have the nerve for that & didn't want to spend money on that. The cost and prize and OK, but when I think about how possible is to hit 8888 it just starts to spin in my head.

Anyway, I wish you a lot of luck if you continue to chase that jackpot! When you win it share it, and you will probably be the first one who has done it!

Thanks, mate! No, I won't be the first. Smiley But if I hit it again, I will share it here, of course.

~ I'm sure if it was 500x you wouldn't stop playing it but you would keep playing it Cheesy

Idk, for me it's definitely not like that. And it's not because I think after a big win on a slot it won't give me another win any time soon. No. I know that you can win right away even a bigger prize. It's just that hitting a 500x on my bet(it's usually $0.20) is enough fun for the day for me. And even if my bet was just $0.10, I would stop too.



As for the slot providers listed in the poll, I like all of them equally. Maybe I play Nolimit City more often than others, but really, all of them are great slot providers. OP, mu_enrico, a well-known slot expert here, knows what he's talking about.
1934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: April 03, 2023, 11:00:39 AM
~ I mean if AI developers will manage to bring something to the table and it happens that the predictions came true then expect that people will keep on eye with that services, while if that AI failed then those who thinks that it was true will forget about it and move on to another project,.

Nothing is perfect, and people know it. So, I don't think just one mistake in predictions will make gamblers move on to another project. And actually, what's great about the whole thing is that you don't have to move anywhere. You can use all of them several advanced AIs simultaneously, and only after dozens of tries you may decide to prefer one over the others. I can't wait when it becomes reality, and I feel like it is the matter of several weeks.

If you are greedy, you often end up empty handed. That gambler from the OP was sure about making $11k out of nothing. In other words, he wanted to take all the money bet on the Jaguars, and thought it was easy. It wasn't. Even if you are so rich that you can bet over a million in one bet, don't think you are so smart too. You don't. And now all those brave gamblers that placed their bets on Jaguars are sharing your money between them.
1936  Economy / Gambling / Re: Researching for Upcoming Game on: April 03, 2023, 09:39:24 AM
I always look for the reviews of the reliable users of the forum and when the casinos are very new, I pay more attention to them, I am not at once to start Making deposits as some members of the forum do, I always wait to see the reactions of the first players, because sometimes when the casinos that are created to cheat do not do it at Once, but after a certain time, this makes the Players begin to trust the casino and play normally, then the bad things break out and they start Delaying withdrawals and such.
Casinos made to deceive people will not show that the casino is a fraud casino but will provide good service so that this service will fool many people. And after many people started registering and depositing their money, problems started to arise. Casinos can make excuses for updating their website so that the withdrawal process can't be done quickly. Apart from that, there have also been other cases that should have aroused suspicion among the members so they can begin to question the casino's credibility.

It's funny that this is rarely the case. In movies and TV series, yes, this is how it happens, because having such complex schemes makes the story more interesting. In reality everything is much more simple: fraudulent casinos have bad design, bad support and lame advertising. Spotting them is easy unless you are blinded by some unreal promises.

~ chatGPT can't do anything special for casino sites but because chatGPT is currently boasting of AI, I've hinted at AI through chatGPT. AI technology can bring a lot of special benefits to casino sites. but it remains to be seen how keen casino sites will be on AI. but it is true AI is going to rule this whole world in coming days. So it can be said that the casino site will not be excluded in that case

An advanced AI can be used for customer support, but gambling site owners should not think that human support can be completely replaced by it. Look what ChatGPT replied to my question "Do you think in the future an AI like you can be used for customer support?":



There are things that "only a human being can provide", and we should not forget about that.

But that's Support. What about games like slots? It's interesting to speculate on how an AI can be used in this field.
1938  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is the reason for the increase in the price of Bitcoin? on: April 02, 2023, 02:58:40 PM
~ I have consulted some analysis from traders I know, many people think that for bitcoin to really enter the bull season, it needs a strong rally to 35k-40k, and it can be said that the bear season is over. And if BTC fails to hit $35k or more, there will be a sharp correction back to $20k. But for me, the market is unpredictable, even if bitcoin crosses $30k or $35k, there's no guarantee it won't fall back. Just one negative news, a black swan can disrupt all our analysis. This year is not yet the year to expect a real bull season to come.

That's what I think too. Not only some negative news can affect the market, but a positive one can affect it too, and it may happen unexpectedly. So, what can we do about this situation apart saying again and agian that Bitcoin is unpredictable? I think we can be pretty sure about one thing: a new ATH will be reached somewhere in the future within 2-3 years max, because it has always been like this, and there's no reason to think that the world of finance has changed dramatically during the past 2 years.

~ Most addictions have some link to the hormones in our brain...and gambling is one of those. The brain will secrete certain "feel good" hormones when we do certain things, like using drugs or the adrenaline rush that we get from gambling.

So people will get addicted to that adrenaline rush, which is a substitute for other things that they do not get from life. You will often hear about someone being addicted to one thing and when they stop with that thing, it is normally replaced with something else. (Eg. Smoking and food)

The difference between gambling addiction and binge-eating disorder is that gambling eats your money while the latter basically eats your health. When you lose all your money to gambling, but remain a healthy person, you can make more money, draw conclusions from your previous experience with gambling, and and either stop gambling at all, or gamble responsibly. While if you are obese, it's much harder to return to normal healthy life.

Gambling addiction is horrible, and no way it's a light condition. I'm just saying that in my opinion it's easier to cope with than binge-eating( I saw The Whale recently, so, maybe that's why).

~
We are giving away our personal data all the time to pizza restaurants, hotels, various delivery services, and stuff, and then, all of a sudden, when it some to gambling sites, it becomes a problem.
But at the same time, these services do not know about our savings. Suppose you won $1 million, and the data on your place of residence, your identification data fell into the hands of criminals. Would you have peace of mind about your safety?

I was thinking about it when writing that post. For those who won $1 million, or even $100k, it could be the reason for concerns. But those are rare cases, and most people don't win such money, and yet they are afraid of passing KYC on gambling sites. Also, I personally think that even if you won some big money the probability of your identification data falling into the hands of criminals is very low because the data is encrypted and are there only for the authorities if they have a proper warrant.
