2041  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler was being robbed on: January 06, 2019, 01:41:18 PM
It looks like an inside job, when you mention pesos I think of a poor South American country in which this happened. The fact that the individual stolen was of another nationality makes me believe it even more to be an inside job. Policeman I am sure they are also corrupted there by the thieves so no chances for the Korean where to complain about this. Sad story, that is why online gambling is always the best, these accidents do not happen.
It's hard to complain when you are not in your country, the justice system of the Philippines is worst and you are right, policemen are sometimes part of this criminal activity so the more it's harder to solve the case. This is a normal scenario in a corrupt country, so like you said, it's better to gamble online if you are serious with it, and just gamble in a local casino if you decide to have fun.
It's even harder as the official itself can be part of those illegal doers, in anyhow not just in the Philippines but also in other places, maybe it is so common that criminal activities around this country is really chronic and it's includes government officials so better to be more careful when you choose playing around casinos.
2042  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: January 06, 2019, 01:18:58 PM
This is out of your control. You cannot do anything but offering your advice to them that they should not risk their money that they hodl for their living.
Even if they get addicted to gambling, if they gamble with small bets then the impact on their lives will be less and they will have at least controlled the amount of money they play. If they can keep a balance at it they will entertain themselves by gambling.

We can hope that after we tell about gambling, they do not become addicting in gambling because we know how dangerous gambling for someone lives. We need always to remind them to control their emotion in gambling, and if necessary, we could go to with them, but we don't play gambling and only watching they played while we can prevent them to use big money.
You can't control them after they already engaged with gambling, not even you go along with them can help avoiding to risk larger amount of money or being to much engaged and become addicted, what we can do is just to hope that in anyhow they can still manage to treat this activity as a source of entertainment and not to rely and always finding their luck's to win.
2043  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin, 2019 and next halving on: January 06, 2019, 03:22:38 AM
In my personal opinion, I don't really believe with just chart predictions, there are still many things out there that can bring it/influence it wherever it goes. We are easy to predict but the reality is sometimes often difficult to predict with certainty, which clearly seems to me this year could be a good development from a drastic decline
Most of the time reality hurts, the anticipation that we had mostly failed as the directions can be played by the big bag holders, what we wanted to go can be change by whales who invested a lots to make sure that they have the majority, so each time they move the momentum will easily be change, though it's good to have a good looks and have a goal finding success this coming year but always have a sets of plans and good alternative.
2044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: January 06, 2019, 03:03:28 AM
~snip~
Instead of creating a new thread like others doing I'll post my bets in NBA here every day. Only 1mbtc per bet. For tomorrow game I choose to bet between Utah Jazz vs Detroit Piston.

My pick (Moneyline): Utah Jazz 1.82 against Detroit Piston with 2.06 odds.

My money goes on the same team and lets see if it would pass through.GL
Aren't you guys interested in this game? Denver Nuggets vs Charlotte Hornets.
They were the one who will play first before the Utah Jazz vs Detroit Piston. Who is your bet between those two?

Denver Nuggets is on a streak, I'm sure the odds are already on them. Could they remain undefeated against Charlotte Hornets? I can't say yes and i can't say no too because it is up to the team on how they outsmart their opponent.
The game is already finished, they won the game, final score 110-123.

Nuggets are really playing well this season, they have a shot in the playoffs once they enter and tonight Jokic is just playing so good with 39 points.
When your center plays like this, it will bring easy success for the team, nowadays  big guys already shoot 3s and Jokic  is one of the good shooters in the NBA. I wonder if you guys consider this young fella in the MVP conversation.
He's just a quite fellow who really can play the game smartly, I just remembered how Dirk played before, a big man who have the ability to take advantage of his shooting percentage, with Jokic continue playing this way, nuggets will have the advantage just like how they easily defeats their opponents today.
2045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner on: January 06, 2019, 02:34:41 AM
Pacman vs Floyd 2 will most likely happen in 2019, but the chances of a Conor rematch or a Khabib crossover fight is high.
If I'm a boxing fan, I would not watch Floyd picking and MMA fighter to fight with him, that's completely a different game and I'm sure Floyd is still gonna dominate the fight, and once again, those who are gonna get fooled to this will waste their money.

Pacman vs Floyd 2 is more exciting to me, I've been waiting for this to happen...

I guess we will know the status of this speculation after Manny's fight againts Broner.

I don't think a second fight with Floyd and Pacman will sell as it did previously and those guys seem to be out of shape for me and are only fighting for the money now and not titles, i wouldn't waste my money on them any more and i am sure there are many out there who wouldn't either. They are just fooling everyone with their game hypes and raking in money and  they don't appeal to me any more.

That's right. Watching Mayweather fight is so boring that it makes me feel asleep while watching. Even if he fights Pacquiao for the second time, the result would be the same same and he will still play the same game play he did when they first met in the ring. Anyway, Pacquiao vs Broner is on its way and I am rooting for a Pacquiao win this time.
Though it's a lot of anticipation about Manny to win this game, there's always negative side of it. People love watching fight that will give them entertainment and they are expecting a good one coming from this two fighters.
2046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The danger is the addiction, not the odds on: January 05, 2019, 01:30:57 AM
Playing with heart at the place of mind and not using your brains, trying to recover the old losses and not changing your mindset will definitely make you a loser in the end. Gambling is another name of loss when addiction strikes in, doing it for fun with the money you can afford to lose (i.e.; money you won't regret for if you lose it, like when it gets slip from your pocket while you're in a hurry or when there's too much crowd) can only save you from the worst results as I've seen many going bankrupt due to this addiction thing. There's a saying in my country - "Gambling is for nobody".
Good point, if gambling being played well without emotions you can be free being addicted, the point of doing it just for fun and not for anything else using your spare money that you can afford to lose is far better than using this venue as a source of income, addictions starts when too much engagement are occur,when you are ready  losing your money to have some fun and not to keep everything inside your minds and regrets when you suffer defeats.
2047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tricks and tips for esports betting on: January 05, 2019, 01:19:49 AM
I'll ask such a banal question (yes, is there already a rule in this forum)

Do you know how to make money by betting Esports? Do you have any good ways (in your opinions) to make money? Or maybe only intuition , current form, players' morale?
The best way to make money from sport betting is deep analysis about the game you are going to bet,the success maybe depends on players and their form still its a game so low performing team also can win the game miracly.
There's always chances even with low performing teams as long as they understand the game, they will be able to win against much prefer teams, if you want to have some edge reading and watching previous games by those teams that you are tailing is really essential to have some knowledge  how they can overcome their opponents there's no sure bets just a little advantage when you full knows the players or teams that you are betting with.
2048  Economy / Economics / Re: welcome bulls , Bye bears on: January 05, 2019, 01:10:55 AM
It seems like the bear market is still not fully visible because currently the cryptocurrency price at the exchange currently still has hagra which is still very cheap, there is no clear sign of the bull run this year.

Still need a lot of time for that to come back again and stay up and be patient until it returns again and make a big profit for everyone.
It will take a lots of time and investors trust in order to make things to happen, the bull will be there coming from the trust of their supporters, crypto market will shine back and make things bright again for those who will keep holding and still investing with this industry, it's just a matter of time and community to keep moving forward and stay calm.

2050  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: This is the FINAL on: January 04, 2019, 03:03:47 AM
Every month or so, new altcoins get listed to crypto exchanges

But I do not see their "intention" of getting listed in this situation of the market.

What is the point? They are becoming more and more worthless, even up to 0.0007$ or so?

If i overview the technological aspects, most of them are data platforms, service platforms, or reverse-ICOs.

I mean, is Blockchain technology even going to develop further so that it can be commercialized and standardized?


It's a fair opinion. In reality any token should be usable. I don't use any token for my activity... and friends of mine too. There is no need in tokens - no demand. They all are just for making money and speculation. They are totally worthless, 99% of them.
They just keep showing up since investors are still willing to take the risk, without knowing the real usage and if there's true functions along the way, most of the time after or before getting to any exchange sitethe Dev already runaway with the money that they've collected during the ico period, much better to invest  with existing project which already developing instead of taking the risk with new projects that's been introduce.
2051  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner on: January 04, 2019, 02:59:02 AM
What are the possibilities for Floyd versus Pacman 2 if Manny wins dominantly where he gives Adrien Broner a pair of biological sunglasses hehehe? High chance, medium or low?

I reckon the fans are ready for another super fight.

I can say its HIGH. Even though people are aware of the fact that the match between Manny and Floyd for the 2nd time are just for money, still it will be a sold out match, ppv will be overflowing, and betting odds will be unpredictable. I myself is so excited as well, seeing two great fighter in the same ring is priceless.
Mostly gamblers are waiting for this great opportunity, with fans everlasting devotion from this two great fighter, fans will keep following them no matter what is the real intention behind, money will flow and surely it can be avoided by this two boxers, pressure will make them to sign with the rematch.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: January 03, 2019, 05:29:28 PM
Just discovered this fine thread.

Ready to learn a lot about the NBA from you guys Smiley
Will start betting pretty soon. GSW and Curry are my fav's tho!

We all have our favorites here but when you are in a betting game you may start to change minds in how teams change their kind of plays.

There are strategies and somehow you will find it here for they have their opinions here which sometimes help for what team you will bet on the next game.

If it is just Lakers that you will be waiting to bet then you might fins yourself getting bored waiting for their game to come.

Try to diversify too.
Watched the highlights of GSW against Phoenix Suns and somehow I saw the lost GSW being ressurected.
Aint about Durant, Curry or Clay. It is about the team.
Fast pace game. Lots of fastbreak points. Just keep looking at the man on the front.
I love it when they play like that. I could say that is my kind of game.
With how they rotated the ball well, still the same champion team way back a couple of years ago, GSW indeed played well when you see them keeps on running and sharing the ball, it's not about the stars as everyone of them have the star calibers and ready to compete when they needed to step forward.
2053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2018-2019 betting on: January 03, 2019, 05:17:24 PM
Tuesday January 3 - HOU +8.5 vs GSW-8.5

The Rockets have been playing really good lately, with 9-1 record of the last 10 games. Their lose was only against the Heat with 2 points only, so this line is too easy for them with the way they are playing. What we are about to witness in this game is the rematch of the Western Conference Finals, or game 8 Grin

So, with the above reasons, I will take the Warriors with the point spread because the line is so good that I cannot resist.



Pick : GSW -8.5

______________________________________________

I'd like to hear your thoughts about my pick

I'm also in the same position, I'm positive that GSW will take this challenge and will likely win in double digits, though there's a high risk taking this pick, knowing how harden and Paul can manage the game, I'm not an expert and just relying with my own observation, keeping myself updated with your thread have a chance to share picks from each others.
2054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: God of winning be with all the gamblers in 2019. on: January 03, 2019, 04:25:58 AM
Hard to said this but we must be truth to ourself.  Gambling is the most risky among all the investments ventures and it is really very difficult for you to continue making profits.  I believe that currently we should not hesitate to make this prayers that God should put his favor on us and for us to keep making many winning trade than 2018.

I'm not really sure about that, what has God something to do with our gambling habits? We made that decision to enter the gambling world in hope of making money but it we did lose then we should blame it to ourselves and same when we won huge.
There's nothing that would happen, gambling is choice, together with luck and good understanding we will be able to win or to take some advantage, there's no change that will happen results still the same both win or loss will showed up after each bets and nothing else.
2055  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will post my predictions starting tomorrow! on: January 03, 2019, 03:04:02 AM
Another tipster to checkout, first pick won easily let see how Celtics will handle the wolves and if same thing will happen to this second one, I'll be watching this thread and see how far OP can do well, another addition to use for checking out incoming games before selecting a pick and gamble.
2056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling Versus Traditional Gambling on: January 03, 2019, 02:53:41 AM
Online casinos provide a lot of convenience to us but don't forget that there are still many people who prefer to choose traditional casinos as their gambling facilities for their own reasons. For me, online gambling with crypto currencies is the only choice since there is no traditional casino here in my place.
I’m also loving to gamble online using cryptocurrency since it gives me conveniency and its a lot more cheaper compare to the casinos. Yesterday, I went into casinos and I notice that most of the player last night are almost adult, and some of there are already a senior citizen. This is the reason why gambling online is not applicable for them and they still choose to gamble on the traditional way.
Convenience is indeed one of the benefits of this online gambling as we don't need to travel just to play the game, we will be able enjoy discreetly while we are in front of our devices, same thing with what you have said, those who are in a late ages won't be easily convince to use the online platform as they will keep finding the enjoyment that they've got seeing more people around and the atmosphere of the casino house.
2057  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is growing at nonstop rates in my country on: January 02, 2019, 03:52:47 PM
In most under-developed countries, where there are few employment opportunities, people tend to try gambling to change their faith. That's one reason why gambling is increasing all over the world.
I don't think gambling is popular in under developed county. When people have money they can try options but when they don't have much to live then their options are limited. I guess westerners are the targeted customers for gambling industry.

I don't know if you have heard about Macau in Asia or 3 big casinos in the Philippines. So it's not just westerners' but big Asian whales as well are the main target now of the gambling industry.

That's why this sort of consortium of gambling company are willing to open to 3rd world countries to operate and the government are willing to cooperate because of the the tax or even to attract tourist.
Each time government seen good outcome for taxes they will cooperate with any types of business,even they've stake people's condition becoming addicted they will allow it making the industry becoming more and continues to grow from time to time.
2058  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Newbie should trade or not? Please give me idea. on: January 02, 2019, 01:11:48 AM
Hello every body.I am a Newbie. I joined Crytopia about four months ago. I hold ont and dog Now I want to practice to trade .Please help me give some idea for Newbie as me, I should trade or not? I really want to receive the instruction of the go-ahead, thank a lots.  Kiss Kiss

Newbies should trade if they want to, but they should not try to put a large amount on it because surely they'll win but the changes of losing is high also.
They need to use amount that they can afford to lose and forget, as trading is too risky for people who don't have knowledge about the business, many exited newbies failed to survive as they begin everything without proper education, to avoid failing you must have good education and do proper research and start using the demo account and keep practicing.
2059  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum again shows that he is the king of altcoins on the market ! on: January 01, 2019, 04:45:35 PM
Personally I believe in the Ethereum more than into the Ripple, and I am sure that to the end of this month Ethereum will get its second position with a large breakaway, because there are lots of good moments in the nearest future.
There's an incoming fork that might bring another hype to this coin, there's speculations and news which investors always looking at, when certain movements coming upon traders and wise investors will buy and hold waiting for another spoke to comes up and bring a huge profits for their investment.
2060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Floyd Mayweather set for New Year's Eve fight in Japan on: January 01, 2019, 04:31:51 PM
Full fight :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hto_Q2vxh8Y

Like others said, it was a complete waste of time. With boxing rules, there was nothing else to expect from this.

Except for money, I don't see what benefit the fighters got from this. Nasukawa had the opportunity to make a name for himself, he failed miserably.
As for Mayweather, this won't do his reputation any good.

It was announced as an exhibition fight. So I am not sure that Floyd damaged his reputation and maybe he doesn't care.
He won a quick 8 million dollar for a 2 minute fight, not bad  Grin.
That's a quick bucks from that fight, with a small amount of time without any pressure just the press and promoters to encourage gamblers to bet with this show, can't say it was a fight but another easy money making business from Floyd's team, enjoying the new year without any hardship to deal with.
