Supposedly. But there will be times your plans won't be followed because of circumstances and unexpected events. This has something to do with saving,perhaps, and even investments. Let's say you are saving for a year and planned not to buy anything on that interval.But emergency occured and you have no other option but to use some of your savings to aid the situation. This is also possible with investments wherein an investor would be sometimes pushed to break plans and pull their investment out due to reasons such as seeing a more profitable investment, or just be needing money m, again through circumstances. Lucky are those who could fund other expenses than what is being used on investments because they won't need to break their investment plans to cover up other needs.

We do understand that some people want to share the idea that investing to this industry has an advantage in the future simply because the market price is increasing over years but it is not as simple as that. There are risks involved and inviting them is also exposing them into that chance of them, losing money. Sharing is different from persuading and encouraging someone. I myself have experienced convincing a friend before but we ended up not talking to each other because she simply blamed me when she panicked on the decline with prices way back 2018. I did mention about partial or temporary and permanent loss such as selling would also cut the chance to earn profit and best thing is to just hold. But I understood her point eventually that not all people could endure seeing their loss. If you are determined to share the idea of this technology, make sure to fill them first with all necessary informations and also, check if they can really manage the risks of investing in this technology.

Experience would help you to decide for a winning bet but in sportsbetting, keep in mind that anything could happen in the ring whether it is square,rectangle or octagon, unless things are fixed. Anyone could talk big by saying they have been in this industry for years but if you really do, what's the need to announce it? For intentions of encouraging people to follow your betting strategies? The counterpart could even be the result simply because there are no proofs for your claim. Also, there are players who are playing for decades but are not announcing how long are they in this field. My guess is simply that experience won't be the bottomline to your bets. Luck is indeed playing its part.

Players are well aware of this; winning does not occur on a daily basis and hitting a jackpot is already something to be remembered for a long time. Many players are ofcourse losing in a more consistent manner than winning. Beginner's luck is another story I guess but still related; they won't consistently win therefore, losses will still be the bottomline. Therefore, I think there's no need to emphasize that the winner OP have mentioned have lost that much of money before being on such instance and that is just fine as long as player's pocket could endure it. Will be always part of the game as we often say. They won't experience winning in the first place if they won't try and experience losing.

I agree with freespins but is now common with newly released gambling sites with roulettes and slots. Freespins before are the catchy ones to encourage new players in this industry. But nowadays, bonuses are in form of rebates and invite incentives. The biggest ones I encountered are during holiday seasons wherein I managed to get a thousand bucks for a total of invites and cashback in one platform, if I'm not mistaken. Haven't visit the site for a long time and I only engeged because of that bonus. Which I think implies for other platforms as well. Casinos won't afford giving consistent bonuses on a daily basis. Therefore bonuses alone won't be enough to make a player stay; other factors should be considered such as overall maintenance of the site concerning delays and lags.

Define what 'waste' is. If it is regarding financial, ofcourse losing bet is a waste of money but if you manage to enjoy the match perhaps, then it won't be. It depends on you purpose of betting. If you are into profit which characterizes most of us here in this industry, we are well aware that losing is a part of the game but is something we won't prefer; no one wants to lose on anything right?
Also, even if the purpose of this thread is to help fellow players for sure some would take an eye whether they could trust the odds to be provided by OP,by means of showing his previous bets or just analysis for the future bets/odds OP is talking about. I hope this thread is not to only promote the gambling site he's involved with.

Best explanation so far.
But what makes sports arbitrage an advantage and disadvantage is that; for pros it would generate profit most of the time because a bettor would be seeking for quantity of bets on odds possible. Downside on the other hand is that, if calculations won't be balanced, huge loss could be the result given that a bettor will have to bet on many platforms. I',d agree with some statements in this topic by other users such that this kind of betting strategy is for the rich ones simply bwcause they have the capability to extend their bets than their usual betting amount. Also, this is not something which would be effective 100%, as in contrast with its other name as "surebets".

If I qould be aware of who will be the winner, then that would be free money. The question is why? If I would be allowed to know who would be the winner, what is my assurance that others won't? 'coz if all bettors would know for sure no one would win, the gambling house won't allow that. Also, it is hard to trust hearsays so I guess it would still be better to just play the game. Those people who would be introducing fixed matchws has a tendency to sell you out, ofcourse they need a counterpart bettor in order for them to win. Unless there's this exclusivity with players to know the outcome and for some reason you are included on that group.

Service based companies would be more likely to do so in comparison with product based or sales industry. One reason is maintaining the quantity of items revolving in that particular company. In customer or sales industry, the need to restock or purchase new stocks are the reasons given that hesitation might take place in no other time to see how high the market price could it be  by which gave heat for this in general. Many small businesses for sure tried to do so but things turned out to be different from what they have expected. The idea as well of today, there were just problems regarding quantity of the tokens. The idea itself that it could be the risk. There'll be times that as an investor. it is hard to do so make a move at the present given that no trend line is obvoua

That is a part of their marketing strategy. Registering on the first place won't cost you an amount in an instant. It is to somehow 'chain' the new player into the platform without seeming to be doing som Once a player have created an amount and happened to like the promotions being offered, then that would be a win for the advertisement. Rather than to just display their promotions to udiences, they'd prefer engagement first. Just think of this; there are many gambling sites offering bonuses. If the amount your platform could offer at its maximum is still less than what others could offer, that would be an instant rejection from the target player. Unlikely of them to do so, once they created an account and happened to like other features to cope up with the disdvantage from promotions.

Stablecoins I guess, if it is for payment purposes. It will save me from regrets for sure. Using ETH or BTC as a mode of payment would be somewhat frustrating especially whenever the market price is increasing. Unlike with stablecoins wherein the amount will more likely stay on a certain price point leaving things as is just like fiat but with less tax. I do admire advantages of volatility but for investment purposes alone. I still cannot think of a way an investor would be able to freely and without hesitation, use his assets to buy something in the market unless it is something which would be of a big transaction and price would be in favor on your end such as buying it for a lower price than it should be simply because of tendencies for a higher market value for the seller's end.

We have no other choice but to adjust. Cost of daily living won't fall down if we would complain about it, unfortunately. The only thing we could do to continue living is to seek for a better job or adjust our expenses as much as possible.Waiting for things to be at ease won't mean nothing 'coz that is not how economies work. This is how I view things but not with the extent that people will be mocking me because of how I look towards economic situation. I tend to complain but I also keep it to myself, while creating a solution and not complaining alone. In the first place we are all suffering from the situation. Sympathizing is a good thing. Wishing for a betterment for the next day is also a good thing. But to wait for things to be in favor on your end is a different thing, it'll cost you forever, trust me.

Ofcourse, it won't be fulfilling to do so and may sometimes yield to regrets but that is how investment works. We have different circumstances as investors and there will just be times wherein you need to make adjustments to balance things out perhaps emergencies and such. No one wants to go in contrast with what's planned, 'coz you already have intentions in the first place. Not only in this industry but to all investment industries. Also, it won't be surprising to know that this instance is also frustrating at some points.
A change from one investment to another? Nothing wrong about it, you might be just wanting to lessen the risk and promote efficiency with your 'buckets'. The market itself is just unpredictable which somehow leads to confusion towards investors' decision whether to just stand still or to move some assets to other which could generate profit as well, if not bigger, atleast faster.

Well, the purpose of advertisement is to encourage people to engage into that certain thing being promoted. If it is gambling site, then obviously it is to attract plaers into their platform. But that should not mean that platforms are encouraging addiction; it depends on the individual. Gambling sites are just doing their thing; in the first place there are countries wherein such activity is legal. The activity itself is not the problem, but people with bad ideologies of how gambling works. Once a player is hooked up with the idea of being rich in quickest way possible, then that is where addiction would arise.

Adjustments should be done primarily with players and not to gambling sites or even land based casinos, alone. We have different industries and casinos are just making a living on their industry.

Factor is guilt. Ofcourse it would be somehow fulfilling especially if you guys are winning but what if the other way around happen? Some people would say they're okay since agreement is present but what would matter is how each individual would feel on the inside.

Thoughts of "I should have bet with myself" "We could have won if we follow my bet".

Playing and betting alone will be better in my opinion; there'll be no regrets and will be easy to accept that you lose. Same thing with winning wherein you'd be more satisfied earning all of the amount possible than end up splitting wherein comparison with the efforts of winning bets could even take place. It is money we are talking about and greed will always take place.

A bit in a rush 'mate?
I honestly did not experience this thing in gambling but I somehow have a similar experience with sending funds; not checking the decimals. I ended up sending more than I supposed to which served me a lesson up until the present. The value in this industry is often with decimals so I made it a habit to always check the amount because my OC is really hitting me up so bad. But good thing it never happened again, atleast.

Reason I guess for such mistake is because we are not used with the values. Even with fiat which we use on a daily basis, we are making the same mistake so what more with currencies which are having a different market value, aside from just being negligent. Other mistakes are accidentally betting with multipliers, forgetting to bet before a match, misclicks, and the likes. Different scenarios but all would more likely result into unwanted outcome not unless it turn out in fvor on your end; a friend of mine accidentally bet on the opponent team and it happened that he made the right bet even if he was suppose to be betting on the counterpart.

Can you add me for Filipino translator?

I have a ton of experience way back 2017 from ICO and bounties there  

Edit: Just found my old portfolio, might be outdated:

Also, this forum is not limited to gambling related activities and investments. This forum speaks for crypto related investments and projects in general. I also agree with what other users have mentioned that there should be a separate individuals to do that perhaps hired by gambling sites. Also, such thing would be possible if gambling platforms are under one association, perhaps, in order to have only one criteria for judging. Otherwise, things will just be biased as you've mentioned.

If this forum will be utilized, opinions will just be the basis for ratings. Some are well constructed but unfortunately, some are just because they are promoting a specific gambling site, therefore you won't get an accurate answer unless you would be engaging to each of their suggested platforms and see it for yourself, how well that platform is doing.

First of all, you are gambling, so expect that you'd be needing bigger amount than the usual. In terms of withdrawal, yes there are gambling platforms allowing small amount to be withdrawn but with wagering and minimum deposit, that would be where you may encounter problems. Most of the gambling sites are just having that 'mininum' in order for the players to be allowed to play sometimes it is becaude of the transaction fees given that the house will get an amount to every transaction and if they won't imply a minimum amount, tand if the amount to withdraw is too small, it wont be enough for the fee and for the player to still get something from what they are wanting to withdraw, perhaps or deposit.

In terms of live and fair casino, there are many platforms to choose from. But the idea here is that, as a gambler you will not get profit without putting a decent amount. Things won't be always in favor of the players 'coz we are just using their platform, therefore adjustments should be made by us. The criteria OP have listed would be only met, somehow by small landbased casinos.

Ofcourse the house will get an amount from it either you lose or you win, that is how they are earning aside from withdrawal and deposit on their platform. With regards to some of your losses going to other's pocket, that is also a fact but to be more precised, it is being distributed to many players who simply won. Annd this is just how gambling works both in online gambling sites and land based casinos, there are just changes or differences with the actual process but the idea itself is there.

On my end, I have no problem with such. A gambling site is getting profit from players simply because it serves as players' payment from using the platform, more of like service fee. The profit will then be used to maintain the website and to accommodate more players and the rest will be for the owner and staff. Try to put yourself on their position, ofcourse you won't do things for free.
