2021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BITSLER VS PRIMEDICE ? Which more fair ? Which you win more ? on: December 25, 2016, 08:20:47 AM
I can't speak for anybody else & I have no calculations or bots, whatever, but personally I've always had more luck/success with PrimeDice. I really don't play dice very often though.

Same with me when talking about the luck I had better luck in primedice
anyway how to prove a more equitable site  anyone have a way to prove that?

it should not matter where you play at as long as the games are the same (which i think they are both having same house edge and same range of dice numbers) and also as long as they are both provably fair which i know they are.

but i personally would choose primedice because they have a longer history and also they have been earning and advertising a lot better than bitsler which shows they are in a better shape.

I mean how to prove any of these sites fairer I know primedice operating a few years and they have a more credible
but I just wanted to know if there are other ways to prove it is more fair eg through a verification code or other methods

i think a fairess are not comparable , if both primedice and bitsler proven as fair then both have equal position in term legitimate or not. people just more familiar to primedice instead bitsler as newcomer. so the choice are in your hands. so far so good for both based on several feedbacks.
2022  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Games Are So Much Fun on: December 25, 2016, 08:11:04 AM
And it is more fun because you just click again and again whether you lose or not as long as you have balance in your wallet. It is also fun to see on how much are the other dicers are winning. Another factor that dice makes me happy also is when I see some gamblers who are winning big amount and I hope that it will happen to me also.
Yeah even if you lost and your sad. When you see someone who is winning big. Theres something in your part that makes you happy and keeps you on believing that someday you will win like them.
There are different kinds of persons, some are very envious and bitter and if they see something good happening to you they will not be happy at all instead they will be mad because they were not the lucky ones to win big.
Well to look at it that way, i see you have a point. I guess it's just about people's preferences and what makes them happy. I agree with what you've said here that people are different and that if dice doesn't sound appealing to me and a bit boring, poker and baccarat may be the same for other people. It's just about knowing what you want and enjoying what your interests are
yeah for some people gamble on a game like dice are so fun rather than gamble on sports or card games , it's okay just the matter of having different taste. just don't gamble like a mad , as most people who gamble in dice usually go mad quickly , the game seems really works with that way to hook people in short time quickly and get their money. idk lol.
2023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: December 22, 2016, 11:22:21 PM
I do gamble to earn some profits even though i am looking for some fun while doing so and earn some profits and nothing is easy and you keep on losing and that is the fact. Gambling has its own risk and i do have a small bank roll every month to gamble.
yeah i do believe on those people who claim that they are gamble for fun only would still have a desire to get profit too at same time. as it's the real gambling, to push your adrenaline to wait on the outcome whether the bet win or not as there is your money in risk. that was the thing that make gambling so excited and full of thrill.
I don't agree with that, I think some people can and do gamble just for fun and they're also the people who are least likely to get addicted, I think.
Gambling for profit is just a bad idea, you're almost always going to be -EV in the long run.
really? then where is the fun when you didn't stake money in a game? the only factor why gambling become a fun thing are when you expect a winning, a profit in gambling. you can test it by yourself, try to play blackjack with your friend without stake money , would it be as fun as when you play blackjack in a casino? i doubt on it, staking money in a casino much more fun.
2024  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: December 22, 2016, 06:18:17 PM
I know and I believe its not happening and dollar cannot replace Bitcoin either as a currency in the US or a currency for international trade. They will both co-opt to make the financial system a better platform. Its either Bitcoin gives room for such co-option or its banned in the US and if its done that way, then I see quite a number of countries following the same pattern which will definitely be bad for Bitcoin...
No that's not gonna happen dollar is the most strongest currency i know in this world and bitcoin is just depending on dollar so how can you say or OP say that bitcoin can really replace dollar soon. If there's no dollar bitcoin don't have value.
they might think about a bitcoin standalone , value wouldn't be like 1 bitcoin = $800 but 1 bitcoin = 1 bitcoin , 1 bitcoin = 1 laptop. it's sounds like strange for now, but everything really can happened. i can't say dollar would NEVER replaced , but considering the current condition , i can't see any reason for dollar to falling down and replaced.
2025  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is CHINA CONTROLLING Bitcoin? on: December 22, 2016, 06:07:25 PM
china state power is immense. they are part of a great power in the world today. it is possible that China can control bitcoin. but now I see that bitcoin is used as well in control by all people in the world.
a powerful country doesn't mean have a power to control bitcoin, as bitcoin itself are decentralized which means there is low chance only for anyone to control/manipulating bitcoin. i believe noone can control bitcoin right now nor in the future. bitcoin are not controllable since first time invented.
2026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The best way to quit gambling for good on: December 22, 2016, 05:25:24 PM
gambling is difficult to people who has got addicted to it. to stop gambling.....hmm.... will take a lot of time to stop it, but the best way to stop it is don't start it at all.

someone if become addicted is really hard to get stop from gambling, the only thing that person can do is asked for other person help and tell the truth about addicting in gambling so other person can help him. for best way to quit gambling is from ourself that have passion to stop and want to leave gambling for forever.
no doubt about this that stopping gambling especially if you are addicted to gambling is not such an easy job. as i have seen so many people who tried their best for so many time to stop gambling but then did not succeeded. therefore you should try first you reduce playing gambling and step by step try to stop playing gambling.
yeah that's true, quit gambling should be done step by step as any addiction would never easy to even stay away. it's required a lot of time to make sure you are not addicted anymore. i just believe as long as you do continuously to pursue it, you would reach your goal to quit gambling.
2027  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why in some countries Bitcoin is banned on: December 22, 2016, 05:08:03 PM
some countries banded bitcoin because their governments are scared of bitcoin. its simple any government did not have any rules or power or restriction around bitcoin so they are simply ignoring it. i come to hear that my government will soon implent some taxation on bitcoin in my country so hopfully we need to pay some extra tax
i agree that government have no authority/power to ban bitcoin, people would just keep using it no matter what. however in several countries i guess there is a tax implemented already for bitcoin investor, bitcoin business and any other kind of bitcoin holder. so people don't need to worry about the tax in bitcoin.
2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: December 22, 2016, 04:56:52 PM
when you're losing enough money in gambling you should know that you need to stop because if you still continue and being a greedy all the time that will be the reason why you're gonna lose all your money . based on my experience the only way to stop gambling is when im losing enough money that i can imagine that i could gain it on a day.
Enough is something that is in your budget, you must have a budget on the possible amount you can lose and win at the same time. It's necessary in gambling and one should have that before the actual gambling. It must be strictly followed and when you are discipline enough it's easy for you to do that. Lastly, you must understand that winning does not happen most of the time, you'll lose and must accept it.
True, We Must Be grateful for whatever we win it, but we do have to have a reference to our victories per day, the excess is not good friend
Thats greediness and it will end up losing if we continue chasing for a much bigger wins i agree with what you have said mate you should have enough budget so you can really manage well your earnings and your losing amount do not exceed and allow timea that you arent lucky just relax and be back with a much better assessment to win.
to have a limitation in gambling are really a hard task, as when you are playing , your human nature to become greedy always beat everything. all the plan to limit your time , your money to win/lost are gone! people attitude to always want to win all the time and get profit in gambling wouldn't give you a chance to stop , unless you have a self awareness.
All people do have an awareness from the start on playing gambling and they do already know the possible things while they are playing on it.You may say i would stop into a particular point when that thing happens blah blah blah and whatsoever your indications but one thing will surely forget all of those control and which is your emotion,if this thing will came out its really hard to overcome since it will definitely control your mind easily and thats the time you will made  such decisions and being broke in the end.
i just think that if you have a strong desire to stick to the rules you would never have any problem to find a point to stop playing. for example if you have a target to buy something like a new car for your family , you wouldn't gamble like a mad until lost everything , but you would feel motivated and think to stop while in profit , even just for a small profit.
2029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: December 22, 2016, 04:33:33 PM
for me gambling for bitcoin is the easiest way to make money if I have some knowledge and enough luck. that's always needed before you played. I'm playing gambling also for my entertainment purposes too. but overall I'm playing gamblingbecause I'm gonna needed my income from gambling to provide me another money because we have a little fastfood chain and I'm investing all my income from gambling on our business so my money would grow.
Yes gambling is an easy way to make money and has the higher risk as well. but i dont gamble to make money, i play to kill time when im bored and if i win its a reward for me. i gamble with small amount only.
gambling would never give what everyone expected, it's always against you. so you need to have a reverse mindset of your expectation to get profit. even though there is small chance only for you to make it happen, it's still possible. gambling to kill your spare time it's a normal thing and it's ideal. people just not realize about it.

2031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there a good modified martingale strategy? on: December 22, 2016, 03:57:34 PM
Again I've been trying to discuss this everytime people do tackle about the dice strategy which martiangle. I only added othe systemw which is called paroli. Paroli system usually happens when you when 3x straight  or after a lose you go back to base bet.

What is the benefit of returning to base after 3x straight wins? Do you double your bet every time you win?

Can you show some maths that show us that is it profitable if you had an infinite wallet?

it's mathematically impossible for it to be profitable.
yeah if you do the math you’ll see that no matter how far along you are in the doubling process each time you win , in the end martingale eat the whole bankroll you have. so the best strategy to get profit in gambling is to never gamble actually! not martingale or another.
2032  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: December 21, 2016, 07:58:15 PM
Banks are so deep integrated in the whole world so I don't see the way that could disappear. Not even with help of Bitcoin. The whole financial system in every country is based on banks. They have started every world financial crysis but stil usualy nothing bad happens to banks and they continue to rule this world. Bitcoin could maybe just put them away a little bit from the track but that is all.
Things do happen to banks, it is just the banking industry still goes strong and that gives the appearance that nothing happens, but when a crisis strikes many banks can go bankrupt in a matter of months or even days.
yeah i agree with you , even banks have been integrated deeply anywhere around the world it's still could be collapsed and even dissapeared. the problem is when something like that could happened? what factors exclude bitcoin that could make it happen? i don't think it cost short time only , i can say for now it's almost impossible to imagine about it.
2033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: December 21, 2016, 07:29:47 PM
Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consisted gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!
I'm get into gambling just for fun and remember not to be greedy and mostly play on low bet, except for the game I know to win.
I can't say that gamble is a good habit due to many people lose and even bankrupt, so I've set some rules to prevent fall into the same mistake and nobody won't know if I gamble with money, keep in secret.
become a gambler would be feel like shameful if you keep lying in the whole of your life, so would be better if you stop at some point and be honest to everyone around you , it's better than have to gamble secretly/hiddenly. especially if you own a wife / a little family, could be a very shameful it's my personal experience.
2034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What gambling method are you using for Dice? on: December 21, 2016, 09:10:32 AM
I do not think that a strategy is really working with dices you just need luck and that is all so why would I even create a strategy or follow one its just not worth it.

as i said in my first post this topic is not about finding a strategy that "works" but to find other strategies that others are using, and honestly i am surprised to find out the majority so far have voted for my forth options to make random bets.

I have a custom strategy, I run around naked and bet all in!

the best strategy so far Cheesy
dice are -EV game, no wonder people choose to do a randome bets, instead to thinking about a strategy that basically eould never chane the outcome. it's feel like wasting time to find something that useless later like a strategy in dice. but yeah there a lot of people still believe on some ritual that should be done before start to play so you can have a luck and win the game etc.
2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who can tell that when our luck come to us? on: December 21, 2016, 08:47:48 AM
I feel no one can tell you that. sometimes people look at your victory and tell you that today is your lucky day, but I guess it was just luck passing. I could taste it is yourself. but sometimes, you feel that it is your luck and try it again, and you finally hooked. Well, feel lucky you have.
yeah luck is just luck, it's a random thing that noone knows. things make interesting precisely when you don't know when the luck come to you, it's make you special to have an unexpected result. so i guess it's doesn't matter to know when the luck come. it's better just be like that.
2036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If bitcoin prices rise up to $100,000, will you still gamble using bitcoins? on: December 21, 2016, 08:40:33 AM
When that time comes that the price of bitcoins will be $100,000 will you still gamble in casinos and sports books?

If the price of bitcoin is $100,000

0.001BTC/1mBTC/100,000Satoshi = $100
0.0001BTC/0.1mBTC/10,000Satoshi = $10
0.00001BTC/0.01mBTC/1,000Satoshi = $1

1 Satoshi = $0.001

Of course people will still gamble. It will be the perfect time to spend your bitcoins now especially for some people who have waited for so long before enjoying their coins. The better question would be how big will the casinos and sportsbooks become if bitcoin reaches $100k?
the higher bitcoin price the bigger people desire to make their money doubled through gambling, i guess it would be a new phenomenon if bitcoin price reached a very high price like that, the bitcoin casinos would become more popular . and it could drive to a mass spending, rather than just to hold bitcoin people would try to gamble and make it double.
2037  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why bitcoin is not supported in some countries? on: December 20, 2016, 03:11:05 PM
I have heard that bitcoin is not supported in some countries. But why ? Is it because bitcoin is risky ? Some countries even declare 6 months jail if her people use bitcoin. Is it fair ? I mined few cryptos and have left mining. It was fun and challenging too. But I never got any clear answer. What does my gpu actually do ? I pay electric bill, my room temperature goes high and I get paid. With actually no skill on pc hardware and software. Whole thing is still pretty unclear to me

Every country is different.
In my country, central bank gave statement about Bitcoin.
They said that bitcoin is not ''real'' money, valid for payment, or financial asset.
Based on it, it's impossible to use Bitcoin as official money for any payment.
I think that in the most countries situation is very similar.
Hopefully, we will see some changes soon.
in most countries government didn't recognize bitcoin as real currency but as commodity, they even ban bitcoin due the anonymous feature that abusable. they take darkwebmarketplace as an example how evil bitcoin it is , they are worriying about that. only several countries openly welcome to bitcoin , this situation may changed as time goes by.
2038  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: December 20, 2016, 02:54:30 PM
Gambling is all about taking chances and you can never guarantee a profit if you are gambling.You will be having winning and losing days and it all depends upon your luck.
yeah there always a losing and winning days, but if you manage your bankroll seriously you may could reduce the losing amount and have a bigger winning amount, in the end you would just always get profit. this is a right way to gamble , and yeah of course it's safe rather than have no method.
2039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: December 20, 2016, 02:42:03 PM
Trading and gambling cannot be same at the same time can give same results if we are not lucky.
True. In other words they will not give same result even we are skilled in specialised fields in both of them. Yes there is no need of skills for gambling and there is no possibility of profit making in trading with no skill.

Trading and gambling have some similar aspects but completely two different things in overall characteristics analysis.

There are some gambling games that does require skills like in poker and sports betting. The skills that you need to be good in analysis which is the same thing in trading. But in trading, the smaller amount that you will have for investing for buying alt coins then the possible return is also small. Unlike in gambling if you are good enough even though you have small amount for capital, you can grow it if you are lucky.
not always mate there's also chances that the trade can be multiply to x100 or x1000 or more fluctuation really affect the trade i can say that it is much better because if you are losing you can control avoiding to completely losing everything unlike inside gambling when you lose you need to have another capital to try regaining your loses.
what kind of trading that could multiply up to 1000 times? i guess it's only happened on cryptocurrency trading like a scam coin. it's too good when you see a massive and high fluctuation, i bet the coin wouldn't survive for long time. i prefer to do gamble if have to take a bigger risk than gambling, it's always worth for me personally.
2040  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the main problems bitcoiners face? on: December 20, 2016, 02:28:30 PM
Right now the main problem i face is that the transaction takes too much time and it is really annoying , i do know what the real issue is but it has being an issue for a long time and i hope the developers will settle the issue as soon as possible.
Yes, the transaction is so competitive, who pay higher fee can complete the transaction faster. We need to wait atleast 10 minute for normal transaction. But I still loves bitcoin anyway. It is the best cryptocurrency.
the stakeholders should really take this matter seriously, people would just leving to use bitcoin as currency as a payment processor if the transaction take time longer , even if we compare to another online payment processor bitcoin are the fastest among them , it's still causing a bad impression for those people who just know bitcoin.
