play a lot of time you will end up losing, deposit play win and serve, the game is made for the house to win

Not really depending on your deposit and your purpose to play. If you play for fun then it is fine and nothing is wrong with that. It is wrong to spend alot of money especially to gamble and we all know that. Sometimes we wont really know that it is wrong or right but the point is if you could afford everything then go ahead but dont if you cant afford it
1982  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Favorite type of gambling? on: October 17, 2017, 06:02:45 PM
My favorite gambling is poker,because playing poker requires a mental instinct or a sharp instinct in reading the game.
I really like gambling games that have challenges like playing poker.
In addition, i always enjoy playing games in poker and expecting great luck.

It is not instinct but it is luck. Sometimes we dont need to rely on instinct but instead pray so that you could be lucky. I know that it wont work but atleast it is better than relying on instinct. It doesnt matter what game you prefer but if you play for profit then that is a wrong thing to do. If you play for fun then it would be better and you will have more fun
1983  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: October 16, 2017, 06:57:24 PM
Make a plan when to stop so you will not end victim of greed. Setting a specific amount to spend for will really help you decide when to stop, when you think you hit your target profit then stop gambling and enjoy your profit. This is the best thing that you can do when you are gambling.
And if you don't hit your target profit and just keep on losing, better stop it or else you'll lose all your money. And I do agree with you. You should stop when you reach your target profit, don't be so greedy. Being greedy will let you lose your profit and everything you have.

Thats true mate,greediness is the main reason why some gamblers become so addicted on gambling. You should set a limit to your self when to stop. Discipline your self to stop when its time to stop. Just put in your mind that the money you are wasting is your hard earned money. Always remember that only gamble what you can afford to lose. 

At first it will be greediness but some player come back because they want to keep playing. Not because we are greedy but we simply enjoy playing. That is all but we know when to stop playing especially when we already lose alot of money. Thats the difference between playing for fun and for profit, we dont really care about the result and we know when to stop
1984  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: October 16, 2017, 06:30:05 PM
Experience can sometimes be useful in games like poker or sports betting, but still a high probability of success depends on luck, not on years of experience.

Totally disagree with you !!
In fact, nobody can deny the effect of luck in gambling but I also think that experience also has an influence comparable to that of luck. Otherwise, in my opinion generally every gain comes from 40% of the luck and 60% of the experience.



Experience is going to help us to determine to continue or not. Sometimes we wont really know that we are already in a pinch unless we are experienced about it. If we are experienced then we will know that it is time for us to stop. When it is time to stop then we stop immediately however if we are lexx experienced then we might not want to stop
1985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: October 15, 2017, 06:12:09 PM
I guess the best way to play smart in gambling is set a limit on how much loss you can take and a goal on how much profit you can earn. Its the same thing with trading, your number 1 enemy in gambling is your emotion. Some gamblers don't know when enough is enough. Bringing someone with you when you play is a good idea to remind you if you reached your limit.

If we set limit, we dont have to worry about losing alot of money especially money that we shouldnt be using. Alot of people think that there is no use to set limit but for me it is very useful. By setting some limit, it means we are playing smartly already. We dont play to win but we play for fun and if we win then that is a good bonus for us
1986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: October 14, 2017, 11:18:25 AM
In my mind, had idea to quit when i gained a little profit. And when it has been achieved, there is desire to add a little profit more, and keep it that way until finally forget when to stop gambling. Because in the end always fared to lose.
|I do not think that it is so easy to know in advance about the suitable time to quit gambling. For that you need to get good experience first and they you can analyze about the price of bitcoin, but still i do not think even the expert people cannot give a 100'% correct prediction.  prediction

The best time is to quit as soon as possible because once we are addicted then everything is going to be hard for us. If we are addicted then we probably cant quit already. It it the same as me because I cant quit and it is really hard to quit that is why I am still playing with a small amount to make sure that I could focus although I know I should stop all along
1987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling Investments on: October 14, 2017, 06:17:43 AM

All your profits are eaten up by Bitdice losses. In lost two weeks someone is winning big from this site and if this continues for another two weeks then better take out that investment for some time until you see better results from them instead just wait and lose your money. Except for that site, all others are doing good.

Definitely will not be selling the tokens in BitDice - the site is making a profit and will likely do well in the future. At the end of the day people can dump the tokens as much as they like on the exchange but the dividends will be coming and I will collect them Smiley

I may consider buying more if the price continues to drop, depending how the sites profit is going. Could but it really cheap!

Depending on how the other site is progressing. If it is makes sense to invest on the other site then I guess you should go with it rather than accumulating that bitdice token. Besides that, there are some newly opened site around here. Care to check bustadice.com? the site has almost 3k bitcoin invested there and is a good site to consider investing IMO
1988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: October 13, 2017, 06:36:03 AM
I'm a hardcore gambler and it's really really hard to giving up on gambling. All advice and tips are not effect in my life, the only I can do right now is everytime I receive money from my job, I always give it to my mother. So I can't spend my money anymore and its work till now.

I was a hardcore gamer as well but I decided to stop gambling for profit. I just swallow the fact that I keep losing money everytime I play so with that I decided to just play for fun so I dont really have to worry about the result anymore. By doing this, I could keep playing eventhough Im addicted so Im good with this decision atleast for now
1989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: October 13, 2017, 06:11:40 AM
Maybe it could be yes, but it only happens to a few gamblers who exist in this world. Because, most gamblers only achieve a momentary win and cann't be a profitable activity.

It only happen to few people and alot of people will lose. It is very simple but alot of people want to get profit from that. I was once like that and I realized that I have made mistake. When we have realized our mistake then we will know that it has no reason for us to keep hoping to make profit from a gambling site because we cant
1990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: October 12, 2017, 08:03:49 PM
Yes quitting gambling isn't easy, I've also tried quitting gambling a few times but I'm back in it every time after a few days or sometimes a few weeks, but the temptation of winning takes me back to gambling.

Gambling will pull you back, even how hard you try to leave. I tried to leave, even left for couple of weeks or a month maybe, but again I got indulged. But I limited my gambling and now the addiction is more of happiness of winning and also games like Poker helps me entertain myself.

I tried to leave but I just cant leave the game. I guess it happen to alot of people as well but I think that some people might be able to leave. If it has become hard to leave then perhaps playing for fun will be the only solution for this. If we play for fun and use only small amount of money then we dont have to worry about having to lose alot
1991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: October 12, 2017, 07:58:31 PM
Just need to take gambling as entertainment and set a limit for yourself that you can spend on the game. But it's even better to invest in gambling sites, this will be a more reasonable choice.

This is insane, because there is no such thing like playing gambling in a smart way, no matter what you do, you are still going to lose and lose and lose most of the time. The only smart way is to quit gambling, why? because obviously if we do that, we will not lose our money again, we could find another way on how to earn money in a safe and not risky way unlike gambling.

The smart way is to play for fun because if we play for fun then we dont need to worry about losing. If we dont care about it then we will only spend small amount of money. That means we are saving ourselves from losing money even if we cant stop gambling. This is the smartest way to keep playing if you cant stop playing on the gambling site
1992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: October 12, 2017, 07:57:33 PM
both have risks. in gambling if you can't control the emotions, then it's the loss you will get. I think in investment risk can be reduced if you understand what you want to invest
The risk is common in both gamble and investment. we can be reduced our loss in gambling by limiting our capital and in investment, we can't predict when the loss will come.
Risk in investment is not equal to risk with gambling. If you invest in some promising ICO or just buy some promising altcoin at low price than you can easily make good profit by just holding them for few months. However in gambling you can either multiply your bet amount or you will loss all at one single roll if you turn out to be unlucky.

It is risky in both side but with investment we could get money in the long term although it may not be that much. If it is gambling then we could get alot more but remember that gambling is supposed to make us lose. I wouldnt really gamble high amount of money because it is the same as wasting all the money that you could have use as investment
1993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Go to Land Based Casinos? on: October 12, 2017, 07:45:22 PM
Do you gamble at land based casinos?
I often go to land based casinos either in my home town or when i travel to other countries/continents . Being in the atmosphere of everyone risking their money and life for a black case in the roulette or someone getting a full house on the poker table is something i love and like to experience more often in my life . That rush of happiness , doubt and hysterical thoughts that go through your mind like a furious biker is a sensation lots better than whenever i practice other hobbies/activities or even when i drink or get high . Even tho gambling in websites is easier , the real casinos have a special atmosphere .

I have no land based casino in my country and it is illegal around here so the only thing is to access it from website. I dont really think that people should be visiting land based casino because if gambling from the website could make you addicted like that, have you ever imagine what could have been done to you if you gamble in land based casino?
1994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: October 12, 2017, 07:44:18 PM
Gambling offers the chance to win a lot of money and have fun about the game. Before such a temptation can stand only those who have a pity completely absent Grin

It does not offer any chance at all because we know that we cant win. If we already know that we cant win and still gamble then it is madness right. I have thought that I could win alot of money as well in the past but everything is just so wrong. In the end I lose alot of money and realized that I have made mistake, it is a mistake that give lesson to my life
1995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: October 12, 2017, 07:41:06 PM
This is the reason of why i try to not gamble, i can not control my greedy and ambicius while i am gambling.. if i have a succesfull game or bet, i just try to double it, and i am succesfull in that, i try to bet that amount, but most times i use to loss the last bet, and this is how casinos take profits, if you can not control it, you are never going to earn anything from casinos, because sometimes you will lose.
But it is difficult, i lost a lot of money in the past because of my gambling addiction.

The fact is that when you gamble And despite the fact that it brings you pleasure, you always need to have some deterrent that will control your desires. The fact is that all enthusiasm can turn into a mania and Dependence on the games will be very huge. I think that this is not worth the money that you spend.

Sometimes people can control their desire to win money from gambling but to control the desire to play is hard to control. I could control my desire of being greedy but I still need to play that is why I play for fun without having to worry about money. I dont think that alot of people could maage it but atleast Im trying to get rid of it
1996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: October 12, 2017, 07:34:38 PM
My worst mistake is when I was playing with credit money in the hope of getting a big win and then getting my loan back, but I lost everything and then I had to give all the salary for loan repayment Angry

Well it is really expected because it is hard to win in gambling. I wouldnt really put any hope in gambling at all because it is known as hopeless thing . Alot of people including me in the past made decision to gamble and win alot of money but in the end we are only regretting everything. I regret everything but I am addicted already that is why I cant stop now
1997  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why trading is better than gambling? on: October 12, 2017, 07:19:32 PM
Gambling was well expalined with an practical example.In gambling you can make hige profits but in trading the profit percentage is less.But the loss percentage in gambling is very very high when compared to trading.So if you have excess amount of money then you can go for gambling but if you depends on your capital then you must conectarte on reading.happy trading.

Alot of people choose gambling because it is easier. It is not easy to trade but it is easy to gamble. I choose to trade because if I want to make money then trading is much better. I have suffered alot from gambling and lose alot of money that is why I could come into this kind of decision but some people wont choose trading unless they have suffer like me
1998  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits from Gambling on: October 12, 2017, 07:16:37 PM
Gambling is an activity that seems to work well in keeping the mind young in many people around the world. There are many people in their 80’s that have been playing in a regular poker game for years. Not only is poker a game that requires the use of several parts of the brain it is also a social experience. While you are playing you are also talking and joking around with the other players, which also keeps those different parts of the brain well lubricated.

Not only young people but alot of older people are gambling as well. People like to gamble because they want to get money as fast as possible. The risk is high but the reward as well. If you have become addicted then everything is going to be hard . Once addicted , it is hard to get rid of it that is why the only benefit from gambling is to play for fun only
1999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: October 11, 2017, 07:49:25 PM
Once i've won from gambling and that too not in huge amounts. I can only buy a smartphone from my winning. And just once.

You could perhaps use the money that you wager to buy a phone but that depends on yourself. If you are short of money then you should be saving that money. If you save that money perhaps you could use it to buy a phone. You use it to gamble and you win but what if you lose? then it will be a waste of money that you could have use elsewhere
2000  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: October 11, 2017, 07:43:05 PM
I set limits for myself because I understand all the danger that gambling represents. Without a limit, it's hard to stop while playing when greed absorbs you.

Yep without limits, one would continue to gamble, especially if you are in a winning/losing streak. If you are winning, you always want to win more; when you are losing, you want to recover your loss. I have had in the past, but lost a nice amount of money, so now I always give myself a limit where I need to stop.


Yeah that's true, usually gambling involves a lot of patience and self discipline. I guess that's the key to gambling really. You just need to try and keep the deposits at a minimum to ensure you don't lose a significant amount that you will regret in the future. I would say that it is optimal to just bet like 1% of your monthly salary every month and that should be it.

It involves alot and someone needs to be patience not to lose everything. When you already lose some amount you will most likely want to bet more and that is how you are going to lose everything. We dont realize that we have made mistake the moment we gamble for profit that is why we need to set up limit so that we wont lose more than what we have lost
