All works of art have their own characteristics, so in my opinion, all those who participate in art contests are great people because they dare to show their skills and talents in this contest. but indeed this contest is only for people who are talented in artistic talent and of course have high self-confidence to participate. whoever the winner is, of course he doesn't mean he's superior to the others because everything is judged by the jury.

I once asked who judged Roobet's artwork, whether he is a person who is also talented in art and understands art, so he knows which is the best work of art. It would be a shame if only ordinary people were the judges judging this work of art because art can only judged by people who understand art too.

I disagree. The artistic value of a work of art is subjective anyway, in my opinion. People "understand" art in different ways, and although art experts are right in their judgments more often than not, they are surely not always right. And it's not math. You can't know what is "right" with certainty. That's why I think it's fair that the sponsors are the judges. Since they are giving their money to the artists, they have all the right to give it to whoever they like. I myself wouldn't sponsor the art that I don't like, and, so, and I don't expect that from others.
1922  Economy / Economics / Re: Try to save money while you still can, will you ? on: April 30, 2023, 10:23:35 AM
Saving money isn't something anyone can afford to do, especially having family to support.
100% true and even they have a job/work still some of them will not be capable to save money since they have their daily expenses. We also tend to find more jobs just to save enough money for our future. Though It's hard for me to save money, Still, I'm gonna do my best to save enough since it will help if there's an unexpected thing that happens to me.

If our income or salary is big then for sure we would be able to save but the problem is not that is why others tend to have 2 jobs at a time so that their income is big and able to save for the future but still even others that has this is unable to save because they have self discipline. For sure all of us wants to save but there are circumstances that we cant

It's always the question of amount, actually. I think everyone in this thread can save $1 per month. But what would be the point of such saving? Setting a goal of accumulating $24 in 2 years can be depressing. And being depressed isn't helping anyone. I mean, you can lose much more than $24 during those 2 years because of your bad mood.

Does anyone mention here that American Credit Default Swaps are skyrocketing? In country without reserve currency thay would pretty much mean bankruptcy. But US Dollar is, luckily, reserve currency so USA can be indebted nearly limitless. But people should still put it into consideration. Republicans are already planning to increase debt ceiling. USA should start cuts in spending even though it's world leader economy. Or its status can be challenged. In current atmosphere I would say, democrats may not win.

Joe Biden is still the favourite candidate among gamblers



So, if you think Democrats have no chance, you probably should bet on Trump or Desantis, or both, right now. When many will start thinking like you do, the odds for Republican candidates will drop significantly. I personally think Joe Biden will be the next President, only to me it's not that attractive to bet with 2.35 odds.

You are right. I always try not to exceed what I can afford because I don't have a lot of funds. And investing in FUN tokens has given me many benefits because I can get WoF, can stake FUN tokens to get more FUN tokens, and sometimes from those WoF rounds, I can get even more rewards. This is really an interesting prize to get.

I rarely win 5k sats but that's okay because I can still get other prizes. Now I'm trying to invest more money to get more WoF while the FUN token price is not too high.

I rarely win 5k sats too, but the chance, although a small one, to win something bigger, like $500 amazon gift card, or 50 Golden tickets, or iPhone, or Rolex, that's what excites me. I won 5k lottery tickets couple of times, and I remember that feeling. It was nice. Seeing that people win in the lottery with under 100 tickets quite often, you a still very small chance, but hope to win something. Smiley It's a good feeling.
1925  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: April 29, 2023, 06:02:38 PM
~ So, the biggest obstacle is not trying. The biggest obstacle is thinking that being financially dependent is your fate and you have to live with it. Today, when we have the internet around, this is never the case. Yes, it can take years of unsuccessful tires, but you will find what you are looking for eventually. If you don't have time, do it once in a week, but do it.
One step at the beginning is a difficult thing to do, but it's not as difficult to maintain what we have started. Try everything, even if we don't succeed after trying at least we will get a very valuable experience for the future. Don't be afraid to start and try, because if we can't do that we won't know what potential is within us, besides that keep learning and adding knowledge to ourselves, it will really help us. But now I see many people who are afraid to start, that's what makes it difficult to move from their comfort zone.

Also, it's important to note that if you are not picked up for a job, it doesn't mean you are under-qualified for the job. It can be just bad luck. Several people could be of the same level as you, but the employers just took someone else for some unknown reason, or even for no reason at all. Keep applying. Don't think, no one needs you. But keep learning too. Maybe, in a month or two, you'll apply for a better job and they'll pick you up!

I think Martin worked for a casino maybe Tongue, nobody is really benefitting from this but it would raise player participation numbers and make casinos happy that the idea gives people an easy to understand and implement strategy.  It wont especially help chances of winning or the balance of amount won vs amount lost, its too risky a strategy is the easiest observation and the gains dont scale with that risk so unwise to use imo.

Price end of month is Sunday and I think price is positive acting, maybe a run up to sub 35k area but mostly I would guess BTC price action hangs around 30k down to the wire probably.

Most bets went on the "$27,501 - $30,000" region



and I think these people are going to win this time. 2.19x of your bet plus the Time Weight Multiplier, it's not that bad of a win for predicting something that will most likely to happen.

But these guys



they are going to win 2 times more for their brave bets if they turn out to be right. And, of course, I wish them to be right. Smiley

~ Bonuses are basically triggers for gamblers to deposit more and play since when you gamble with the bonus, you mostly lose it all and then you feel like playing more, and then you go ahead and deposit money to gamble more. It's very rare that people win withdrawable amounts from given bonuses.

Well, it should be like this, don't you think? Bonuses are there to make people "taste" the game, and then, if they like it, they must deposit to play more. Although, it's not exactly like that. Firstly, you can play in demo mode for free as much as you want. Secondly, there are exceptions. I myself won a withdrawable amount couple of times on various sites, starting with just bonus money.

Date/year : several years ago
Amount or Figure : 0.006 BTC
What Game : Dice

It was around 50$ back then when I lost it, and maybe for someone it wouldn't be a big deal, but for me it was painful, very painful, tbh. I lost my entire balance in one click. I hit the MAX button by mistake, and without thinking a second I clicked OK replying to the popped-up question "Are you sure?". I don't know why I was acting like this, like I was in a big hurry or something, but I did it, I bet 0.006 BTC with 0.5% win chance, and I lost.
1929  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: April 29, 2023, 08:55:43 AM
There are many disadvantages of excessive gambling that we need to talk about, and I do hope that newbies who plan to start gambling will learn something from this thread.

Gambling is not for everyone, some people tend to always get attached to whatever they do in their lives, too caring, too foodie, too protective, all these comes with disadvantages too, because I believe that too much of everything is bad.

If you are someone like this, stay away from gambling.
~

I want to say that in my opinion, it doesn't matter whether you're quickly getting attached to things or not ... It's really hard to tell. What matters is your monthly income, and that's what you can easily tell by looking at your paycheck. If it's too low, like less than $400 per month(or, it can be $1,000 per month in some places. It depends on where you live.), you shouldn't gamble at all, period. No excuses. If you want to make additional money through gambling, then you need to see a doctor, a good professional who is able to explain to you have much more chances to make additional money elsewhere rather than through gambling.

do you think, this is possible or they are already doing it? popular game providers like evolution, pragmatic, etc.

Reputable game providers will never do things like that, that's what I'm sure of. Morals aside, they are making good money without cheating anyone, Why risk ruining their reputation?

Many gamblers "feel" that they are cheated by casinos, and so when there's a demand for this kind of info, there's going to be a supply.

There are many of online casinos cheating their customers, no doubt about that. But saying "we are showing ... exactly what's happening with online roulette", like this guy in the video, without adding "on some sites" or something like that,  makes this video looking more like a conspiracy theorists' stuff. I wasn't surprised by seeing this comment below the video



Yeah "Wake up peeps! The governments are cheating everybody!" Bloody hell.  Grin Grin
1931  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcasino.io 🖤 #1 VIP Crypto Casino 💠 Come in and explore our new design ✨ on: April 26, 2023, 10:06:40 AM
I'm not a slot player and this is my first time trying one using my money since I always play using free spin rewards from the casino. I became interested in trying out Bitcasino exclusive slots after browsing some huge wins shared in this thread.

I was already down by 200INR on my total bankroll and I thought that I don't have beginner's luck. I decided to activate the chance x2 feature by paying extra INR and this changed everything. I started hitting free spin and won some massive win that made me recover my loss and take home some profit. I didn't manage to screenshot all my profit because the profit display is very quick to disappear I'm on auto spin mode.

This slot game is so good for beginners like me. I'm hesitant to try it because it has a high volatility level but I took courage and it's really worth it. This is the best slot game I ever played so far.  Shocked



Thanks Bitcasino!


Congrats, @AbuBhakar! I'm glad you've discovered this amazing slot, Bitcasino Billion

I won 27x on this slot today



and, yeah, it's a BIG WIN like it says and all, but I'm so spoiled by my previous wins on it, I mean, wins like these:



that now winning with 27x of my bet I'm thinking "Hey, Where are those over 100x guys? I wanna see them!"  Grin
1932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: April 26, 2023, 09:02:50 AM
~
With a good source of information I'm sure AI will beat them but in terms of emotions things that only human experts can play and weight the possibilities, there's something that still needed to consider unforeseen cases that might affect how AI will decide with their recommendations, the good thing here is you can use AI recommendation or you can go to the other-side.

Something that you'll going to be against the favorite, which is most of the time I believe that AI will provide after sorting all the available information around.

Expecting that with all available information provided AI will always be right in its predictions is not wise. We shouldn't rule out the possibility of a team winning against all the odds. The question is, will AI predictions be more cumulatively more accurate than those of the human experts? I think, we are less than a year from the time when AI will beat humans in this regard.

What is the Return to Player rate at casinos?
Simply put, RTP is a measure of how much money a slot machine will pay back to players over time. It's expressed as a percentage, so an RTP of 95% means that for every $1 you wager, you can expect to receive $0.95 back in winnings, on average. The remaining $0.05 goes to the casino.

So it is calculated overtime and not instantly as many of us think.  Aside from that we are unsure if RTP is calculated individually or as an accumulation result of all players playing the slot.
~

I'm pretty sure that RTP of a slot is calculated as an accumulation result of all players playing this slot. And not only on the site you are playing, but on all sites altogether where this slot is presented. Often we here complaints about the announced RTP is bullshit because "I lost $200 playing this slot and nothing was returned to me, not 95%, nothing!". But these people don't understand that what they expect is wrong.

1935  Economy / Gambling / Re: Researching for Upcoming Game on: April 25, 2023, 12:43:57 PM
~ I wouldn't try to get information regarding gambling sites anywhere else. I'm not saying they are lying on all other sites, but what I like about this place is that any a lie will be exposed here pretty quickly, while anywhere else, I don't know, it can take weeks, or, posts may be moderated, and lies can stay forever there.

Here in forum as a gamblers we have many information we get and about online casino for sure we can get some tips by users who already try in that casino. And also through this forum we can search the upcoming casino because some casino made their announcement thread even though they are planning to build a casino and this is the most advantages if we are a user here in our community.

Unlike on other forums, here many of us are incentivised to make informative posts by the sig campaigns we are working for. If talk nonsense all the time, we don't get merits. If we lie, trying to promote a scam coin or a scam site, we can get a negative trust.  I don't know is there a site with the same unique conditions as here and with about the same amount of users(which is important). I really feel sorry for those gamblers who try to find the answers to their questions in other places.
1936  Economy / Gambling / Re: chinese bookmakers with tf gaming platform NO KYC on: April 25, 2023, 12:18:47 PM
That's right. I'm not sure about the site in the OP, but scammers use "NO KYC" sign as often as unreal bonuses and stuff like that today. If you are not a high level criminal or corrupted official who want to launder millions of dirty USD you shouldn't be afraid of KYC. Don't be lured by shady sites, guys, only because they promise no KYC. Research further.
Don't get me wrong friends, there are still some big non KYC casinos that have been around for a long time and are now quite popular with a pretty good reputation.
Maybe there are some casinos that are non KYC and only aim to cheat but not all of them my friend.
Regarding the bonuses given by non-KYC casinos, they must be real and realized, even scam casinos will also provide bonuses that they provide to attract more gamblers.
I know that you mean well and you don't want many gamblers to become victims of casino scammers, but your presentation is still not quite right, friend.

Of course there can be honest non KYC casinos. No doubt about that. KYC is required by the regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions where the site is registered. The gambling sites themselves don't need it, they just have to comply.  That's why I said "Research further.", not "Stay away from such sites". Smiley
1937  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - The Leading Crypto Casino - 🦉 Drake, UFC, Everton Main Partner ⚽ 🥊 on: April 25, 2023, 11:46:43 AM
No, no, that's what I'm talking about: no "feeding mode" in in-house slots either. As I said, sites of the level of Stake don't do that, they don't keep track of your winnings and losses, and they don't adjust your future performance accordingly. Everything is completely random. That's the point.

The site does keep track of the winnings and losses of an account, since if they don't then why do the site have the statistics of the amount wagered, and the amount won in each cryptocurrency they accepted?  I don't see it the wrong way, in fact, it is helpful for players because they can check their statistics.  So the casino keeps the records but I don't think they use it against their player.  The "feeding mode" happens in every casino but I do not think it is what some of us think where the casino intentionally modifies the house edge making it bigger and more favorable to the house..  Remember apart from the randomness of the result in gambling, there is also a universal law called the law of average, so if you are winning, it will eventually even out by losses and vice versa.

But it takes many millions of bets for that law of average to work. That's why it works perfectly for all players on the site, but not so much for one particular gambler. For all players it works like this: what's lost by one part of users is evened out by what's won by another part, minus the house edge. The universal law of average doesn't work on small numbers like a thousand, or 2 thousand, it works only for much higher numbers.
1938  Economy / Gambling / Re: What else should an established crypto casino add? on: April 25, 2023, 11:07:23 AM
~ Online casinos are not like some dictatorship states where you are forced to subscribe to propaganda newspapers, watch propaganda movies and buy tickets of the state lottery. It's a free world, where gamblers choose what games to play and no one is forcing them play games they don't like. So, what's the point of adding a game that no one would play?
Yes you are right but if the casino can't take big profits and gamblers don't like it then the casino will never add the game ever.
Maybe some want a game that has a skill base but most others prefer games that are fun and can get adrenaline.

Sorry in advance but it looks like you failed to understand my previous opinion pal.
In my previous opinion this meant that a game if it wasn't of interest to many gamblers then the casinos would not want to launch that game into their game roster.

No, no, I did understand you, mate. Smiley I just wanted to clarify for others that if a game isn't of interest to many gamblers it's not the same as the game is not in the casinos favor. There are thousands of games that are, both, interesting to gamblers and are in casinos favour.

I'd like to add that on a higher level of analysis, it's true that the games most people don't want to play are not of much interest to casinos because they are making money from the house edge and there will be almost no money made from such games.
1939  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: April 25, 2023, 10:34:59 AM
~ Right. For me, this is more of a marketing strategy so that those who might predict correctly might be gambling sooner and start to wager an amount to bet. Maybe for now, what the site is offering is not gambling yet, but knowing this is a gambling site, it will eventually tempt you to bet an amount the next time you play in it as the rewards are quite impressive and promising. The end point here is to see you finally gambling in their site so they can start profiting from your funds.

I agree, the site from the OP isn't a gambling site itself, but it refers you to a real gambling site(anyone can see it after going by the link). So, I wouldn't recommend using the predictor to underage youth and to people with potential gambling problems. Other than that, if it will be referring you only to honest platforms, it looks totally fine to me.
1940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's on! 2024 US Presidential Election Biden+Harris Vs Trump Bitcoin betting.... on: April 24, 2023, 09:42:04 AM
Good observation. Is it worth betting on Kamala Harris now, in your opinion? I mean the odds are even better for us gamblers today, around 12.00, but closer to the elections they may drop significantly. Her chances of being nominated are less than 50% imo, but not less than 10%.

That's what I am saying. There is a very high chance (IMO) that Biden won't be healthy enough to run for election in 2024. 18 months is very long time, and lot of things can happen. And in case Biden can't run for POTUS, then who will be the alternate choice? At this point I can't think of anyone other than Kamala. And this is the reason why I am saying that Kamala's odds look crazy at this point. They should be much more favorable. But then always remember that winning the Democrat nomination is a lot different from winning the POTUS elections in 2024.

Absolutely. I bet on Kamala to be the nominee with pretty good outcome odds, 17.00



they will be lower int the future, I'm pretty sure of that, so, it's better to place your bet right now, if you believe she has a good chance. I placed a small bet on her just in case. Won't make a millionaire if I win my bet, but will be enough for a 4-pack of Guinness and a can of Pringles, I guess. Smiley
