2.) lets say you win, set aside your capital if possible. If not, take 10% of every win in your pocket. With this you can go home with money even just coins. Not bad.
I do this every time I gamble because I know this will help me to keep my earned profits. But as I get more hooked into the game, my hands is like moving on its own and always pull out money from my pocket until I left nothing but the same capital (sometimes I left the first profit I earned) Grin. I guess I need to more practice self-control.

There is the message from the forum, which you also can see it yourself in the top-left corner of the forum interface.
The displayed message will fluctuated between some set-up messages, so sometimes you will see the news, sometimes will not.
Really? But as far as I am concern, the news always appear to my screen every time I visit here. Anyway, still props for your effort to post this because I can see that you make someone get aware of this Smiley.
Is it really worth paying for cooper membership?

It doesn't have a significant value for me (maybe because I'm already a Full Member). It was just a decoration under your name. Yout post quality and your behavior as a member still matter the most.
I suggest to have it raise more.
I agree. 0.00624 btc was so easy to afford by the scammers. They still be willing to pay for this knowing the possibilities of earning more from their scams so I guess the fee should be bigger or at least make another rule which will stop those scammers. Nevertheless, this is good improvement already.

I sincerely hope my good friend Emmanuel takes the reigns as president from me someday.

He's quite a gentleman, perhaps overly kind. But I will have already killed all the drug dealers for him so it will make his job easier.
I'm not sure whether I will laugh or get pissed off to you for impersonating President Duterte Undecided but I also like the humor somehow.
Mayweather should have been a ballerina. If I wanted to watch dancing I would just pop in my VHS copy of Footloose.
I know it sucks. I expected that their fight will be full of action and drama but unfortunately the fight ends with nothing special, so disappointing. I just hope if there would be a rematch, Floyd will face Manny blow by blow and do not set "running" as his tactics again.
2144  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cryptopia exchange hacked on: January 17, 2019, 05:08:20 AM
After this hack ppl will pull out of crypto. Expect a crash. Damn
This is only an isolated case so I think it will not produce a great effect in the market status. The money robbed by the hackers is only a small quantity compared to the summed up assets from all the exchanges and hodlers around the world. But I'm not saying that a crash or large dip is not impossible due to the panic this issue created. Hence, people, especially the weak holders tend to sell their coins. I just hope this won't happen because I'm really craving for the bull run.

OP's post:

....is plagiarized from here.  Reported, welcome to bitcointalk.
@OP ~ In my opinion, you really got no chance of getting merit since your post history is only composed of bounty reports and applications. Do you think those kind of posts are worth to receive merits? I don't think so. Another problem is that you are now neg trusted which is a big hindrance to rank up. All I can say for you is good luck.
2146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is playing casino games online a good idea? on: January 16, 2019, 09:01:57 AM
I've seen in many news that a lot of online casino games has no license to operate so if I were you I will avoid them.
Yeah! But not all of them. There are existing ones which are already proven and trusted through the years.
It's also hard to trust when you are betting a lot of money then only the computer decides what's going to be chosen. I don't see the game very fair at all.
I see your point and. Even me got no interest in playing such games (like dice roll etc.) because the chances of winning is smaller and because I'm scared that the owner can have the power to manipulate the game (this is my gut feel only). So for me, much better if you will go with sports betting or strategic gambling like poker.
2147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where we are now with Gambling on: January 16, 2019, 06:14:20 AM
<snip>

even arcade games still existed on malls but most games are now up to date and the old games were now replaced . that is the same as physical gambling but online gamblings right now are more popular due to the existence of mobile phones or gadgets that has an ability to connect  to internet  .  crypto has also help the online gambling to grow  more succesfully  .
For me they are not really the same. Gambling (whether physical or online) only got limited number of games unlike to arcade where different kind of play can be played. So it is really hard for a casinos to recover because the games there are also available in online casinos, meaning, they don't have a very strong edge. Maybe they can catch up if they will start to accept btc as a form of payment as well — a P2P transaction.
2148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tyron Woodley vs. Kamaru Usman booked for UFC 235 on: January 16, 2019, 04:45:48 AM
@peter0425. It is politics. Also, it is known that Dana hates Tyron.
Is it even possible? Why would Dana hate one of his talents(that brings money to him as we think deeper)? I can't see the sense.
<snip>
Yeah, I also know that Dana doesn't like Tyron as well, could be the cause though, but I don't think that Usman has the tools to beat Tyron though, so it's going to be another failed attempt on him to put down Tyron and I'm sure that once Tyron will, he will smack both Dana and Covington, and Dana will be "force" to schedule them a fight.
I also feel the same, Usman can't defeat Woodley (IMO). Woodley beat Lawler anf Till and that already means a lot. But well, we can't also underestimate Usman since he got a nice record too, this only means that he is also a tough fighter. So I  think I'm in neutral for now.
2149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any valid reason to continue gambling? on: January 16, 2019, 01:55:59 AM
There's no need for a valid for that because once a gambler you're always a gambler. Whether they love to entertain their self or they love winning that much, you can't do anything about it because it is their choices. But if you see a friend of yours who is addicted too much in gambling then i suggest that you help him to realize what he's doing is healthy anymore.
I think it supposed to be "unhealthy", I get your point anyway Grin.

That was the best thing we can do for the people who are addicted to gambling — tireless advising and undestanding. They should be the one who act first because we don't have the right to interfere a person's will and personal life as a whole, what can we only do is to guide them and make them realize that what he is doing ruins his life.
2150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My 2 cents on: January 15, 2019, 01:56:52 PM
The gambling took a lot from me but i was conscious enough to not let it sink me to the bottom.
Congrats for you mate, you are now starting to walk on the right path. You make us realize that gambling addiction is not impossible to cure, if you able to overcome that then for sure others can do the same. It's just a matter of motivation and determination. I hope your story will serve as an inspiration for others especially for those people who are already addicted Smiley.
2151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does this sound realistic? on: January 15, 2019, 12:20:44 PM
but my neighbors and some of my family members treat gambling as oppose to what i do . they play because they want to win badly . i feel so bad about it but i dont confront them because i dont want to hurt their feelings  .
I guess the neighbors and relatives of yours got no jobs or a more decent means of earning money? I might be wrong but it's true that unemployment is one of the causes of gambling addiction.

Well, it's up to you if you will confront them or not but for me it's much better if you tell them what you noticed. Choose to tell the hurtful truth than tolerating their bad deeds. They need serious help and your simple advice already means a lot.
It is fun both ways, not only when you are winning but also when you are losing.
Are you having fun even when losing? I can't understand why.

5. Meron tayong kaibigan na maasahan para makatulong sa pagpopost, at yan ay si GOOGLE, napaka friendly nyan, may translation na may video ka pa. Maraming tutorials ika nga.
For me, this one is very vital especially for people who are not very fluent in English speaking like me (I mean not very good in constructing English written compositions). I used Google everytime I'm having a problem on conveying the idea I want to express, for checking my grammar, for finding vocabulary words and for searching supporting details.

Here's my advice, never use Google Translate as much as possible because sometimes the outcome translation of what you wrote was broken — not well grammared making it hard to understand. And besides, depending on such things makes you lazy and unmotivated to push yourself for studying.



You make me feel jealous, I wish I also know video editing. Anyway, good luck for both of you, and remember, this is only a friendly match so don't take it too seriously Grin.
2153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't love any Alt coins. on: January 15, 2019, 08:34:37 AM
In my opinion, there's nothing wrong of having another favorite coin other than btc as long as you knew that the coin you choose is trustworthy and stable. Since that I'm only a hodler who cannot adapt on the fluctuations of the market from time to time then what I do is that I only invest on ethereum because this is the 2nd strongest coin in the market which also means that there's nothing to worry about its future unlike to tons of ICOs came out but most of it end up as shitcoin. That's my principle, I only trust on alts which already build a good foundation in the market.
2154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: $100 to $10,000 challenge on: January 15, 2019, 06:56:57 AM
I don't want to just join on discord, just post some update here and tell us what you are betting.
Also, the link he posted is invalid or expired. We can't know what's inside of it.
You are aiming for a big goal and I can tell you as a gambler that it's a hard job, that's 100 times from your capital or bankroll.

I also feel the same, it's easy to set a goal but hard to achieve. For sure that this will be hard but who knows? Maybe he is really good and lucky on the game he plays.

2156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner on: January 15, 2019, 12:53:59 AM
It never ceases to amaze me, people saying that Pacquiao needs to retire because he is old and past his prime. But look at how those young fighters like Mikey Garcia, Terence Crawford still wants to fight Pacquiao. Not only for the money but for the one of a lifetime experience to fight one of the greatest fighters we have seen in the last 20 years.
Yeah, you're right. Manny is now 40 yrs.old and still fearless of fighting younger fighters. It so amazing to see that a middle aged person like him still be able to remain physically fit and maintain the stamina (Imagine, he can still sustain a 12 round fight without any problem). He is the living proof of "Age doesn't matter".

However, it's not bad if he will decide to retire after few more fights (I hope with Crawford and a rematch with Floyd) because he already prove something to us. That was enough, he should now focus to his career as a congressman. But if he  still want to fight then that's okay too Grin.

Definitely the first reason that you have. No one should be too greedy or they’ll end up regretting what they have done.
Probably, even me wouldn't be hooked in a game up to extent that I already forgot to take a bath knowing the fact that I'm winning. Hmm I just wonder how much money he already lost and how much money he still had, I have a gut feel that he already spent millions of pesos all night. I feel sad for him because it seems that he's now hopeless.
2158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Constantinople, the only ethereum hardfork on: January 14, 2019, 08:25:31 AM
We have seen some people or groups, who claim they are hardforking ETH,.
ETCV on the other hand was not quickly detected, but its team was anonymous, which i feel is enough to suspect them of scam.
Right now, its telegram account has changed when i checked.
It's website is suspended and so on.
They are now asking people to buy their coin, which does not exist.
This one almost fooled me because I saw some avatars of Ethereum Classic Vision wore by members here before (probably it's a bounty campaign because I can't found it in the Services section) but fortunately I found a thread which revealed the truth that the real and only hardfork of eth is Constantinople. Here is the thread. I also verified it in google and it was the same so I hope this issue is now cleared to everyone Smiley.

There's no problem of finding legit gambling sites, they spread all over the internet. But since you are looking for a suggestion then try to look for some of the sites that have a signature campaigns here which run already for a very long time, meaning, they are already proven and tested.

Today its a different scene or there is no scene. I visited a club last
night while out socialising and it was dead to the point where I wonder
how the club is able to stay open.
I guess the reason behind these is that conventional casinos are already old-fashioned — digital casinos are now in trend. Humans always seek for the best, we tend to prefer what is faster, easier and more convenient means of living. That's why I am not surprised that more and more gamblers are now engaging with online casinos because you can play without going outside of your house and your privacy is not compromised.
