I totally agree that a good name and branding can make a difference in the success of a casino or any service provider. I mean, it's pretty obvious, right? A well-crafted brand can build trust with customers, and having a premium domain name can make a business stand out from the crowd and even give it a sense of credibility.

But let's not forget that having a good brand and domain name isn't the only thing that matters. To be truly successful, a business also needs to have a great product or service, top-notch customer service, fair pricing, and a solid marketing strategy, among other things.

I think customer service is the thing where you can really stand out, because it is so hard these days to invent something new regarding gambling, something that gamblers have never seen before, and, at the same time, something that they will like. Responsive, polite and knowledgeable Support team can impress gamblers, and they will not only stay on the platform themselves, they will bring in others.

What you say clearly confirms my deepest conviction that casinos that make payments in cryptocurrencies should not aggressively and persistently require the player to go through the KYC procedure. 

~

The thing is that it's not them casinos want you to go through the procedure. Why would they want it, in the first place? They just want more players on their platform, and of course, such things as KYC, don't help in that regard. It's the government requires from them implementing KYC, and they just have no choice but abide to the law.

Stealing is bad, and stealing electricity is no different. It doesn't matter that you can't see or touch it, stealing it is still stealing. It seems that people like Nadeam Nahas don't understand it. I bet he wouldn't steal a bike from his neighbour, and yet he had stolen nearly $18,000 in electricity from the district, from his neighbours basically.

I once knew a thief with a policy: never steal from normal people.

His reasoning was that corporations and governments have an unfair advantage, and there's no other mean for redress other than to break the rules yourself, with corporations and governments as the target.

Maybe that wouldn't apply in this case, although:

1. I suspect the school pays for electricity out of it's regular budget
2. The regular budget is borrowed, and then paid back with stolen money from everyone's children/grandchildren

however, point 2 is incorrect, because it's actually infeasible to ever pay all the "public liability" type of debts back anyway

I think it's a dangerous thing to have this policy and keep stealing thinking that you never steal from normal people, but only from corporations and governments. Firstly, someone normal can be fined or even fired because it was his/her responsibility to prevent such stealing. Apart from that, stealing from the governemt is usually punished severely and I wouldn't advise anyone to risk their freedom for the sake of getting some cash.

That's why I said "Stealing is bad": it's not only morally bad like in the first example, it can be very harmful for the thief himself, and not in the "afterlife" or some "reincarnation", but here and now.
2125  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - The Leading Crypto Casino - 🦉 Drake, UFC, Everton Main Partner ⚽ 🥊 on: March 07, 2023, 12:36:07 PM
I wonder if Stake can implement something simple for transparency? It is clear that the Stake Original games have a variable RTP, so it is not fixed, like many slots from third party service providers.

It should not be too difficult for Stake developers to add a query feature to the "current" RTP that are configured for each game and to display it in "real time" under the game info tab.

The only reason why you would want to display a fixed text number, is if you are manipulating it.  Roll Eyes

Live RTP is a nice feature, and I myself like to play slots on some gambling platforms where you can see it. I play on both, Highest RTP games and Lowest RTP games for different reasons. The former I play because I think: "Wow, everyone's winning on this slot! 350% RTP for the last 24 hours! I should try my luck with it too." And the latter I play because I think: "Long time no wins? Only 6% RTP? Someone should win soon! Maybe it will be me." But, of course, all that is just for fun. I know well that your chances of winning on a slot don't depend on on other people's(or yours) performance on it during the last 24 hours.

So, it's not about transparency. It's only about more fun.

~ Speaking about features and other similar stuffs then i dont see that there would be something new been offered soon considering that almost everything is just identical when it comes to promotions and offering.

This is why im not really that much hopeful if ever there are new ones that could be seen if we do speak about features and other possible benefits for a gambler to have.
It is really just for entertainment after all in the first place.

It looks identical at first glance, but there are little differences that gamblers notice and for that reason choose one casino over the other. It's like with cars. They all look identical if compared to motorboats or planes, and yet they are very different, and the prices are different too. What I like about casinos is that, unlike with cars, it costs you the same whether you play on a cheap slot or the most expensive one regarding production.

Getting free spins on Moon Princess is really hard, but those nice small wins like these
-snip-

You are lucky if you get a reel that is connected repeatedly in 50 spins, even if you don't get free spins, if the balance increases it will be fun. However, for me this game is quite difficult compared to Rise of Olympus. I got free spins several times and didn't get a good win, the biggest win I remember was 20x from the base bet. Unfortunately, I haven't played slots with real money for several months, because I don't have free money and wants to control my mind from playing to win to playing for fun with the minimum deposit possible (if I playing slots again). If there is such an opportunity to play, I will definitely share the results of the free spins that I got. Grin

We'll be waiting for that then. Smiley I wish you to get some money "out of nowhere", as I call it. It's when you win it through a promo contest or something like that. I absolutely support you in limiting your gambling with the money you might need for other things. That's the right way to approach gambling, and I'm happy for you that you can really do it.  Several months without playing slots with real money, it's quite an achievement, I must say.

BTW, which is your favorite when it comes to getting Free spins? If I prefer 4 Free spins, high risk, high return Tongue
I prefer 5 free spins medium risk. so I prefer to take moderate risk not low or high.
because my assumption is 5 free spins can get a large multiplier opportunity and a minimum of x200.IMO


I several times chose 4 free spins, the results were not satisfactory

I'm so convinced that in slot games nothing depends on your actions, and everything depends on luck, that I never change what was offered to me by default. The only thing I might change is the bet size: if it's too high I make it smaller.
2129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 Oscar Awards betting and discussions on: March 07, 2023, 09:06:19 AM
@Betwrong. The final voting for the Oscar awards this year are done on March 2 to March 7 and very much similar to the years before, there are some leaks in information that the oddmakers can collect and change the odds correspondingly.

In any case, the odds did not change. I am quite certain Everything Everywhere will win the Oscar for best picture. I speculate the Hollywood agenda this year is forget everything, enjoy your life heehehe.

I thought it's about constant fighting for understanding between generations and between people in general, but, well, maybe it's because I'm living in the midst of the war for the last year I see fighting even in movies. Now I think it's both, and you are right too. Smiley

~ Will be an added sweetener if Michelle Yeoh ends up with the Oscar for best actress. And also, there is a good chance that Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert may win the award for best director.

BTW odds haven't changed. Everything Everywhere All at Once remains as the overwhelming favorite at 1.10 in Stake.com. All Quiet on the Western Front is at 11.00, while Fablemans has odds of 31.00.

Cate Blanchett has some good chances to win the prize, but I'm rooting for Michelle Yeoh. To me she played like dozens of roles in Everything Everywhere All at Once, and played all of them great.

2132  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's on! 2024 US Presidential Election Biden+Harris Vs Trump Bitcoin betting.... on: March 06, 2023, 11:40:02 AM
In fact, Trump should get a prize for keeping the world peace intact because no war happened during his term.

Ukraine-Russia war started after Biden's election too. Coincidence?

I think not.
Trump always says that (no war happened since he was president), but I don't know exactly what the US public reaction is to that viral statement. but for me, I felt Trump is perfect for the next USA after he said that. Or, maybe because he was looking for a face to attract anti-war public sympathy and to raise his electability.

And if more USA public won't the war, the next figure is the president who always ignites that anti-war statement.


Trump is just saying things that, in his opinion, make him look good. Four years ago he said that  he would not have allowed Russians to take Crimea from Ukraine. Meaning a conflict with Russia, right? And then, all of a sudden, he's the best Putin's friend. I think Americans can see it and they will never vote for Trump again. I mean, the majority of them, of course.

2134  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting strategy question on: March 06, 2023, 09:37:45 AM
~snip~
The thing is that for many people, myself included, gambling without earning anything significant, or even losing a bit of your money, is not wasting of time. We use gambling for entertainment and relaxation, not for income generation. Hence the formula: the longer you last with the money allocated for gambling the better.

It's not always like that, of course. Every gambler knows that there are times when you can't stop, and you keep betting, and you feel exhausted in the end, and some money lost on top of that, and stuff. But with those gambling for fun this happens much less often than with those playing for profit.

There is a difference between games and gambling though...

The element of potential winning a lot of money is a huge element of gambling, that is not present in games in general.

Gaming is probably even more popular than gambling, but it still generates less revenue for the companies, because a gambler can lose so much more money in the same amount of time than a gamer.

We weren't talking about gaming, though. Smiley We discuss here gambling, right? Global video game market is actually larger than gambling market, but let's drop it, because it's out of topic entirely. Let's at least stick with gambling here, ok? Speaking of which, no, it's not a valid argument that "gambler can lose so much more money in the same amount of time than a gamer". Gambler can win a lot too, right? Casinos get their revenue from the house edge, not from what this or that gambler loses.
2135  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: March 06, 2023, 08:35:23 AM
~ Exactly. It can be very stressing. I can write a book about how stressing it can be to run your own business. I wouldn't recommend, especially to young people, even if they think that they have enough money for that, to open their own business. If you are young and have money, you should invest in your education. If you want to be financially independent in the future, don't risk all the money you have with opening your own business while uneducated. The probability of you losing everything is very high in that case.

Truth be told, not everyone is suitable to be a business owner. I once started a wine business two years after I graduated from college, with money I borrowed from my parents. Unfornately it ended up as a failure and I have learned great lessons from that experience. Looking back, I actually don't regret on that "experiment" although I lost much money. Now I am living a comfortable life and keep all lessons in mind. It is just best to know who you are and what you really need.

First off, I agree that when we try to do something and then fail in the end, it can be a good lesson for us, a better one than that derived from some lectures. Also, it's good that you borrowed money from your parents, and not from a mafia. Smiley To be honest, I'd like to read more about your "experiment" with a wine business(Where was it? California?). Please, if you have time, tell us about it.

And, as far as I understand, you have achieved financial freedom yourself(or, you are very close to it). So, what is your answer to the question in the OP?
2136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling earn someone a living on: March 06, 2023, 08:03:59 AM
~ So my question now is that can someone use gambling as a means of earning living?

Of course. We have many examples of sports bettors and professional poker players who earn good money from their gambling. And don't forget about people winning Lottery Jackpots. Yeah, they do exist. So, the answers is yes, someone can. The thing is that the probability of you(or me) being that "someone" is extremely low. It's about one in a million chance of us to be so lucky, or, both, lucky and skillful in the case of poker and sports betting. That is why it is more rational to not count on that and use gambling only as entertainment.

Addiction is a serious problem, especially for low-income people. It's unfortunate that these people may lack resources and support networks. Yet, addiction is a sickness that requires compassion and help.

Addiction is a serious problem regardless of the income. People lose millions USD to gambling, and in some cases tens of millions. No one should be thinking "I'm rich, so I can be addicted to gambling, and nothing bad will happen to me." No. Addiction will eat you from the inside, and losing your money, that's actually not the biggest problem, even.

And yes, I agree, it is a sickness, and it requires compassion and help. But not the kind of compassion like "Oh, poor thing, he's addicted. That's just what he is. Let him gamble if he cannot live any other way." Not that kind of compassion.

Its been a long time since I have won 5k RP and this time its on the free WOF spin we receive on mail.
This shows why it is equally important to spin the WOF spin daily that we receive on mail.
You never know what you win in the next free WOF spin.
~img


Absolutely. Congrats, @pawanjain! 5k, whether it's lottery tickets, RPs or satoshis, it's a rare win these days.

I suggest you to exchange your reward points for Wheel of Fortune tickets in the REWARDS section.



I myself can make only one exchange per day, but depending on your wagering, you can get up to 100 WOF tickets per day this way.



I found a small typo on the site:



It's nothing really. I personally like the phrase, "wheel for fortune", and it could be written like that intentionally. But I think it's just a typo. So, I'm reporting it. Smiley

~ I'm kinda embarrassed about my country. But if they keep on giving the war to Russia, I might be becoming a bit afraid. I'm already trying to figure out where to move to real fast for when the US finally collapses America, and Russia takes over... along with China.

Oh, that's easy. Move to Russia if you love it so much. And there you will see what is it like to live without freedom of speech, the very freedom you actually enjoy living in the US.

But you won't move there, will you? You are afraid, as you said it yourself. But don't worry. Your country, the  country that you hate so much, and the very country that has given you the freedom to say and write about your hate, this country united with others will overcome evil, and you will have the opportunity to peacefully play computer games where China teams up with Russia during the WW3.

the experience shared by the OP could inspire other gamblers to believe that the big fortune is coming our way. if at this time we often lose, it's okay. but I'm sure one of us will also be able to experience a big win like OP's experience getting this big win.
I myself often place multi bets but never succeed there is always a losing team.
but I'm very sure, that luck will come sometime when the time.

Luck may come our way, and it may not. I mean, it's luck. It's never guaranteed. It may take just one bet to win big, but it is also possible that it will never happen. When I said "inspiring" I didn't mean we'll be betting like the OP and winning with that. I only meant that this way of betting is fun by itself. Even if you are not winning, if you are losing a 20 leg multibet just by one leg, like the OP posted later, it's still fun. I mean, it's a tragedy if you betting more than can afford to lose. But your bets are small, it's fun.
