2161  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: November 22, 2017, 07:41:29 PM
that's why I won that one gamble you really needed to stop because it won, that's when you hit it again you can beat and lose your gambling money you should also use the brain when you gamble that you do not think I'm winning you will continue game, because it can still recover and beat the crap, if I win it really should win it and you can understand the word STOP.

Satisfaction is the problem of most of the gamblers here, you just can't say that we have to stop when we win. But we must practice that whenever we win so that we can avoid further loss. Stopping is not when you are winning but if you are not lucky for that day it's also good to stop. And in summary, when you win good amount stop and when you lose a lot, stop.

Limiting the number of money we can afford to lose and making a winning target could give a good guidance for us to stay on the safe zone. What we have to do is just to stop whenever one of those conditions has been met.
2162  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: November 22, 2017, 06:42:23 PM
I've just thought about this for a moment but, if we want bitcoin to get more popularity, attention or acceptance would it be nice to make some advertisement about it on T.V.? I don't if know if in other countries they advertise bitcoin but in my country, I haven't seen one. How do you think advertising bitcoin will affect the people? Any thoughts?

I guess the main problem is that bitcoin is open-source, community driven... Altough there are some bigger players on the market.
I think this would make it incredibly difficult to get a concensus on which add would be shown, as well as finding sponsors to foot the bill. TV ads aren't cheap Wink

But yes, IF there would ever be a concensus about showing a TV ad, and we would find somebody footing the bill, i think it would give BTC and incredible boost. In my country, most people still think bitcoin is only used by criminals, they always give me a strange look when i tell them i have some btc to.
Maybe the bitcoin will become more popular worldwide because we all know many of the people who are daily viewers in television so if you advertise it maybe many of people will have curiosity and eagerness to earn bitcoin.

Advertising bitcoin on television every day will surely increase the number of people who will be aware of its existence. I am so sure, this can have a good impact to the development of bitcoin.

Liverpool makes 3 goals on the first half and Sevilla makes 3 goals too on the second half even last minutes goal from Pizzaro already destroy feeling Liverpool fans but this is the latest proof that Liverpool still playing inconsistent because i thought after won 3-0 against Southampton then this match will belong to them but clearly i was wrong

Bad results for Liverpool in my opinion. They could not maintain the three-goal advantage they created in the first half. Yes, as you said, Liverpool is in inconsistency nowadays and that should be evaluated soon.
2164  Economy / Gambling / Re: ▂▃▅▆█ BITSLER █▆▅▃▂🎁 LOTTERY 🎁19 BILLIONTH BETS PROMOTION🎁 on: November 22, 2017, 11:17:06 AM
The system works at 35%, the problem is when you find 9-10 red in a single row. You can lose everything. You need at  least 1 Btc to handle a huge drop

Each method will work until it doesn't. No matter how high our balance is, if we can not control ourselves, a bad and unexpected result will occur. For me, gambling is like a game of mind where greed will occupy the most part our minds and it is usually greed that will lead us to the gate of destruction. So, please gamble with the money that if we lost it, we won't get a bad consequence.

By the way,

Congratulations to all the winners of the 19 billionth bets promotion!
2165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The hapiness of a green profit on: November 21, 2017, 07:51:20 PM
A green profit is really nice but choosing when to stay in the green and not play anymore is another story. If we have won a life changing amount it is best to stop playing and not play again. If it is not nothing enough keeping going until it is but it's your risk how far and for how long you want to go for.

Stop while ahead seems to be the hardest part for most gamblers. They are not satisfied with what they have got and want more. The green advantage, the happiness part, will be a temporary situation if we can not control ourselves.

Manchester City vs Feyenoord

This could be an easy game for Manchester City since Feyenoord performance is not good nowadays. I think Manchester City will win the game with more than one goal difference.
2167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you a True Believer? on: November 21, 2017, 10:23:52 AM

So my question is, are you a True believer of Bitcoins and other Cryptocurrencies that it will one day replace paper money, decentralised and all. Or are you only a believer that the price will continue to climb and you'll one day be a millionaire?




I don't think bitcoin will replace paper money. Imo, such possibility isn't exist. Bitcoin and paper money are two different things. Bitcoin is decentralised and it can't be implemented to paper money where the stability is the main concern. But I do believe that bitcoin will remain as a good asset for us to increase our income now and in the future.
2168  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you surprise by bitcoin price now? on: November 20, 2017, 05:33:19 PM
I'm not too surprised at the current bitcoin price.
I guess the bitcoin price will go up very high 2018 and the next two or three years

Me too, I'm not too surprised at the current price despite some regrets if I remembered my bitcoin sales in the past. I checked the price almost in daily basis therefore such feeling not come to me.
2169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling ends on: November 20, 2017, 02:26:05 PM
can this world stop in gambling?
someone who like to gamble hard to escape from the gambling trap. almost like a drug addict. Even after they went bankrupt still struggling to gamble by borrowing money for gambling. Actually what do they expect?
I think people who are experiencing addiction in gambling can still change their lives by the help of the gambler's friends and family, they can help the gambler by changing its habit like playing sports, working out, and working in their jobs, instead staying at home and going to casinos.

yes that habit is what should be strong and appealing enough to help you forget completely about gambling because gambling is difficult to stop and you should be really ready to replace it with sporting activities, working out and other recreational activities like you are suggesting.

Only the physical work can replace gambling addiction how means it will give us tiredness, and we will not get more free time. Suppose if you start to play any indoor or outdoor game it takes a long time and after playing this game you will be full tired you don't look any other things. But if you find mobile games or any internet related activities then it is hard to come out from this gambling addiction.

Busy at work or at any other activities outside of gambling can help us to try to forget gambling. But the results will certainly vary for each person. For people that already has a high level of addiction, tired won't halt them to come to a gambling place.
2170  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever invested in an ICO? on: November 19, 2017, 05:50:39 PM
ICO is one of a way to make money or to grow money. with small investment you can earn high rewards from the increase of token price in the market. In fact, now ICOs price lower when released in the market. many ICO price drops in the market. I bought scl but the market of scl is under ICO price. recently I postpone to invest in ICO. I am looking for the best and promising ICO only.

To find the best and promising ICO's is difficult and will involve a bunch of efforts. I myself not too interested to invest on ICO's. For me, it is too risky.
2171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: November 19, 2017, 11:02:08 AM
Yeah it's not something to be played for profit, it should be deal as an entertainment. For me it is very much surprising to hear from the people that they gamble to earn money and want to correct their mistakes due to which they lose money while on the other hand we listen from the people that gambling is all about luck. I think going for gambling itself is a blunder in life, why not work on it instead of wasting time on useless issues.

We have examples from our predecessors. It is almost impossible for people to get a decent life by gambling and it should make us realize that if we treat gambling as a mean to earn income then we can end up just like most gamblers had. We have to change our mindset regarding gambling!

Did Bitcoin price rise that fast because of ICO's
and Forks?

The rise in the price of bitcoin is a combination of several factors that its even difficult to pick one factor as the one responsible for certain percentage of the increase. For ICOs increase can be credited to them, the workable ones though because most of time carry out lots of campaign both online and offline which touch the majority of those that are not within the bitcoin net, they evaluate and decide to give it a shot but they cannot do that with fiat so they had to come in through bitcoin for those that accepts.

In the case of forks, this is mostly applicable to insiders, for someone who had one BTC before the BTG fork would have a bonus about $150+ now in addition to his BTC so this accounted for another increase in the price of bitcoin in my opinion.

Indeed, there are a bunch of factors which influence the price of bitcoin. Both ICO's and hard fork give a significant role in regard with the bitcoin price increases recently. But there are still many factors outside those two things.
2173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What is your Favorite Token Exchange? on: November 18, 2017, 07:01:35 PM
Most of the newest tokens will be listed on etherdelta first therefore we have to familiar ourself with such exchanger. And that is why I prefer to use etherdelta most of the time to trade my tokens.
2174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: November 18, 2017, 06:35:08 PM
Yes and yes, simple math using personal formulas had help me win lottery in the past, Atimes it doesn't work. as unbelievable as it may sound I hate math back in school but I never failed it.
Gambling is bad and I have stopped it
I think luck is the main reason why you won in lottery, math is not really vital in games which is called as luck based games like lottery because it is drawn based on a random numbers. I think it would be more useful in sports betting because when you are good in math you can analyze the information very well.

True, math is not a decisive factor in our victory in gambling. If only someone could win gambling any time with the exact same mathematical formula, then I would change my mind regarding math in gambling.
2175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: healthy discussion about DICE on: November 18, 2017, 12:22:23 PM
So its been 5 years that im playing this game
sometimes i lost everything
sometimes i manage to win but then burst it all again in some weeks
there is no strategy to beat the HOUSE
why the house always win?
if you try to test 1 satoshi with 50% change you still get more reds than wins. Why?
dont come with that bs "hur dur you are greedy" no!
i mean.. the game is provably fair why we cant win?
everyday i see the house winning 10+ btc just checking the high rollers
post your opinions





I know how it feels. But to be honest, it comes not just with dice game. We mostly will have the same feeling with any other types of gambling games. We mostly will have the bad result on gambling no matter at what games we play. That is why for most people gambling is considered as a bad habit to do. They say: "No one can be rich with gambling."

2177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you use BTC as a digital currency for paying online ? on: November 17, 2017, 11:24:15 AM
It was one on the issue Satoshi saw the world needed it. But as far now it mainly use is trading for speculation by the newbie and holding by one who bought it years ago.

Of course it needs to be legalised FIRST somewhere. But after that a, will you buy something online and pay in BTC ?
Or it’s just a form of investment like gold was a decade ago ?


 Smiley Hi, there luxcoin! As far as I know, there are only around seven countries that prohibit the use of cryptocurrencies. I agree with you stating Satoshi's aim of creating an alternative payment for internet commerce. Currently that dream is little by little realize as more company embrace the technological change of accepting cryptocurrency big names includes Microsoft, Newegg, Steam, and much more. However, most of the bitcoin holder prefer to earn more bitcoin rather than spend it which become the reason why most of the bitcoin transactions are conducted in the investment.    Wink

With relatively high bitcoin fluctuations, there will be a feeling of affection when we have to use it as a means of payment. It would be wise, imo, that in transactions (selling / buying goods and services) we keep using fiat. And treating bitcoin remains as an investment.
2178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Altcoins really have a future? on: November 16, 2017, 07:20:28 PM
so many altcoins have future, you just need to know how to look
there are some that just want your money. but i think some altcoins will get bitcoin down and go to the stars

Of course some altcoins have future. Bitcoin is not a perfect crypto. There are some things that can still be exploited by another cryptos to get fans. Especially in terms of transaction fees, confirmation speed etc.
2179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: November 16, 2017, 06:42:44 PM


I don't agree with those people who tend to say that they are gambling only to have fun as even their main intention is to make profits and make quick bucks and if you are looking only to have fun then why you want to go for gambling as there are many other ways to have fun where you will get something in return for the value of money you have spent.

Why not? In search of pleasure, people can choose something they like including gambling. As a comparation, why do people like to climb mountains when the risks can be very fatal? Why don't they choose another safer hobby?
2180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why people are sharing tips? on: November 16, 2017, 06:07:39 PM
Some people are sharing tips because they want to help other people and also they wanted everyone to progress in life and wanted to share tips so they can win.

OP talked about people who shares suggestions to place bets on sports events. It isn't about sharing free money. Meanwhile, something done there must be a purpose. And in this case, most people who share tips have a purpose, for sure. Build reputation could be the most common purpose they intend. Hence, if they able to gain such reputation, they wish they can benefit from it.
