2221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Woman won $43million but was offered a steak dinner instead of her winnings on: January 10, 2023, 10:00:26 PM
That casinos is not honest at all and If i were the one who won that kind of money, I won’t go home without it or without a proof that I won that money. I will not exchange it into a steak, that casino should pay regardless of the reason.
Me too, I'll stay until they give me my winnings and that's a lot of money. Well, can't blame the woman who won that amount and then told to go home and she can come back tomorrow. Those that are into local casinos and might have hit a jackpot soon, you'll all learn from this scenario.
Don't settle for anything until you get the whole amount that you deserve. This is a crazy casino and I think this is just one of them there are more horror stories like this from other gamblers.

I hope she can still get her winnings, the good thing here she took a picture of it and can use that as her evidence, better to put this in court and expose that casino for not paying the winning prize.
That's possible since she's got a selfie of it but in defense of that, the casino will just lie and say that there's a glitch and then let the court decide.

I'm one of them and guilty that I just click the "I agree" button without reading because I want to save time. But the more of these cases appear and you'll get to realize that you should also be careful with such terms and agreements, it starts to read every time we sign up.
While for the side of users of Celcius, that's a hard part to accept since they've trusted them but then, they'll just make it like this and will have to partways through a separation that's not favorable to the users.

However, I already have an opinion on which team I will always bet on in the Dota 2 match this time, namely on the Tundra Team and hopefully the Tundra game will be the same as last year's match where they won the title.
You still have to observe who will be they're fighting. It's not all the time that even TI champs are going to win, there can be some bad decisions and chokes from them.
But so far, they're showing who they are and even years ago before they've become a TI champ, they've been commended for being a consistent team. Who knows if they'll be the 2nd team to record for having 2-TI title as champions.
2224  Economy / Economics / Re: Americans are once again quitting their jobs at a growing rate on: January 10, 2023, 10:07:53 AM
I saw someone who's got a decent job but I'd forgotten the state and still ended up being homeless after years of working. It could really be related to the economic downfall and the state where they're living. But another reason is that their way of living and the salary they earn isn't really enough for their lifestyle. I'm balancing my thought about it because when someone who's earning decently but has a luxurious way of living, that's really not sustainable. While in the US, the number of quitters are increasing, in some other countries, jobs are too limited.
2225  Economy / Gambling / Re: Duelbits.com | Casino & Sportsbook | VIP | Instant withdrawals! on: January 09, 2023, 07:35:30 PM
I do contact there support the moment they freeze my withdrawal. There decision is final and they can’t share more info about the reason for there decision. I stop asking question about the reason since I believe they will not gonna entertain me anymore while I already finish my KYC to withdraw my balance.

I’m just sad that I can’t participate anymore on promotion while it’s the only reason that motivates me to play more. Anyway I respect there decision and I’m still happy that I get my money back while I can still use the casino feature except the promotion.
That's sad to know but if that's their final decision, there's nothing we can do about it. There's a basis on their end but they'll not say what it is.
Well, anyway, I hope that this won't stop you from supporting Duelbits.

I believe decentralized, non-custodial gambling is the future.

I think otherwise, because it is expensive to play when it happens, imagine paying tx fee every time you gamble?
It is optimistic to think about the future and we've seen before that some decentralized casinos like 5-6 years ago have launched. And fees are dependent to the network and what's worse is when it's clogged.
2226  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HELP, I want betting/gambling tokens in crypto portfolio for 2025 on: January 09, 2023, 01:36:06 PM
Is there any reason to add gambling tokens to my crypto portfolio?
I don't know about you, it should be your preference whether you want to add casino tokens or not. It's your portfolio and you shouldn't be looking for reasons from other people if it should be in your stack.

What drives their value?
Their market is what drives the value, so if there's a lot of usage from its respective casino then the volume will be much higher.

Do they appreciate in value just like other altcoins whenever we are in a bull market?
There's no guarantee, it's a maybe.

If you are in my shoe right now, what gambling token do you think you can take a risk on and add to your crypto portfolio and why?
I don't have an interest on any of them as of the moment so, if I'm on your shoe then I'll allocate that to bitcoin.
2227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A superstitious strategy? on: January 09, 2023, 07:37:44 AM
I don't think we know when luck is on our side. When it seems like it's on our side, everything can turn upside down. I don't think we have a parameter to measure it. Of course, superstitions can motivate us, but I don't think they will do any better. That's why I don't look for too much rationale when playing casino games and that's why I try to bet on sporting events as I think they are more predictable in general. I play casino games for fun, but I definitely don't prefer them too much.
There's no way to measure our luck but when it's there, you'll notice it with your bets and outcomes. When you've been gambling for a long time and there's no superstition that you've relied on, there's no encouragement that you'll get from any of it.
And for the opposite side, when you've been used to it and has believed a lot with everything that happens to you. You'll think of every move you do before, during or after you gamble with superstitious beliefs that you've known.
But as a gambler that have seen a lot from it, whether you believe or not, there's nothing wrong with it. Just gamble all the way and don't mock others with what they think with their gambling styles.

Anyone aware of Mansion Invitational? Just saw some post about Blacklist International dota 2 team which consist of Karl, Raven, Kuku, Tims and Eyyou. It is what I think the most hyped dota 2 team in PH right now but sadly the are eliminated in the first tournament they have joined which is Mansion Invitational. They are still a brand new team and I guess they are lacking the chemistry they need. I think they are still forgivable despite the elimination they have. I hope that they will do well in DPC if ever or I guess it's a early game over for them.
Yeah, they're hyped but I think it's normal for them to have this debut. It's not a DPC tournament but I guess they're still testing the waters and that's pretty normal for them.
When I'm looking for some dota 2 streamers, I always landed in most of them and I think that they're doing good individually but still need some refreshers as a team to have that bond, well, it's okay on their side and will for sure learn from this loss.
I'm sure fans who bet on them got disappointed because of the result of their recent tournament. Tomorrow they will enter DPC and we will see how their team will perform. If somehow they did produce a bad result or having not so entertaining game, I'm sure people would be angry and a new hype of hate will be born again since I'm guessing that Filipinos are the one mainly betting for them. If the situation got worst for Blacklist dota team, I hope that Blacklist International wouldn't stop producing teams like this. Most likely they will recruit another talents from another country.
Well, there are always the bettors that will blame the team they bet for when they've lost. But here it goes, the DPC for SEA is later and we shall see the Blacklist Dota 2 team play against Bleed Sports who have become the champion for the M88 tournament.
Give them a try and let's see since this is a DPC tour and most teams will want to stay in division 1 and will play all their might and best to be at the top. Let's see who will get the first blood on this first day of the tour.
2229  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Basically All Small Cap Staking Coins Had this problem on: January 08, 2023, 09:42:27 PM
These 7 or more coins having working explorers, a few people with coins interested in keeping them going, and most are on an exchange.

With new team members, what is the value of this?? 

I'm sure interested people would get an airdrop.
Those that are interested people will only be interested in the airdrop and they'll be optimistic that hopefully, it will have a good value when it's on the market.
But to think that they'll be interested in the project and be optimistic about it, I doubt that people are like that nowadays. Most that are interested in a project, they're on those projects that have been in the market for so long and with solid plans on how they're going to keep it.
2230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will Cassino Continue With Wagering Requirements, If Abuse is Eliminated? on: January 08, 2023, 08:48:08 PM
1: What is your opinion on casinos that offers wagering requirements on both deposit and bonuses?
2: what do you think, if all necessary security checks are up to 100% and Abuse is totally eliminated from casinos, do you think gambling sites will make a no wagering requirement on their bonuses?
3: what conditional do you think could perfectly replace the wagering requirement in a casino that will serve players' purposes and also protect the revenue of the casino

1. Nothing, it's part of their marketing and they have to do something to keep their old and new customers and that's one way of doing it.
2. I don't think so, these bonuses and promos have something to do with their marketing and not with security.
3. Many have been doing the giveaways and that's how they're giving back to their players and at the same time, they're also making profit from there.
2231  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I think it's wrong on: January 08, 2023, 01:14:13 PM
I think it's wrong to compare the old bear market history with the future bear market, things could play out differently, I was into crypto in 2019 and I am very sure that there was a bear market years back before 2017, in 2020 there was pandemic, no one saw that coming.
There is nothing wrong to think about cycles and repetitive market histories such as bears or bulls. You're right that it could be different in the next years to come but there's nothing wrong with thinking that someone is comparing the old and future bears.

Fast forward to 2023, someone I knew is expecting some kind of a new pandemic to put pressure on the world once again, he believed that the last pandemic was intentional, what do you think?

Right now some people are still waiting for more downside without any DCA so far, this is a very big risk if you ask me.
Well, this is wrong to think that another pandemic might happen soon but if that's his opinion, he's entitled to that. I'm not thinking that another pandemic might happen just to make the market better. It's too odd to think about that because we how most countries and poor people and even the rich ones have suffered from it.

2233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people store their cryptocurrency on exchanges? on: January 07, 2023, 12:36:13 PM
You're doing the right thing by buying your hardware wallet and many of the members here got their hardware wallets, either Nano Ledger S or X or Trezor and its variants.
One reason those people store funds on exchanges is about being confident and convenient in keeping them there. That might be the major factor and reason why they're keeping it there for good as they think that exchanges like Binance and other popular ones are untouchable but little did they know, one must learn from FTX.

FTX crash doesn't mean binance will crash too, like coinbase it's been around for 11+ years, and have you seen it crash? While it is not recommended to store large amounts of assets on centralized exchanges, it is impossible to stop using these exchanges. Please assure me that you and OP are not using binance for day trading. If not, please don't badmouth the exchanges.
It's not the point, the point is that every exchange has the possibility that can be FTX in no time. We don't know their whole situation all of this time and then they'll just come out at their lowest time.
Yeah, I may not have seen Coinbase crash but it's not the whole point of it. On this market, no exchange is too big not to fail and all of them has the same possibilities just as FTX and that's the point of what I'm saying and I can choose any exchange that I want but I'll not keep most of my funds there.
2234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: In search of reselling tipsters group on: January 07, 2023, 10:14:48 AM
It's 4 days now that OP has been offline after making this thread. I doubt that he's finally found one and he's got the idea of what he's doing.
He probably has read all of the concerns about what he's trying to do but maybe he's got something else with it that we don't know. What I think of this is it's possible that he'll use it for marketing and then he'll capitalize on the tips and will resell it to the community that he's probably got.
Well, that's too much of me thinking that it's like that.
2235  Other / Politics & Society / Re: I feel guilty. on: January 07, 2023, 08:29:33 AM
Yeah, you introduced him but it doesn't mean that you're the sole responsible for whatever he's experiencing right now. He's at his own fault and never controlled himself. It's like someone who introduced a friend to bitcoin and then the bear market has come and the current value of his investment went down, so that person who's at loss is looking for someone to blame. Don't feel guilty about but it's a good lesson that you'll not introduce anyone anymore to what you're doing.

In this case, it is true that the OP cannot be blamed because the other friend is also old enough to be aware and responsible for his behavior, and should not blame others when failing.

But this is a lesson not only for the OP and for all of us that advising someone really should be considered, especially financial advice, because they are very risky. Before giving advice, we need them to confirm that they will take all responsibility for the outcome because when they succeed, we don't benefit from them either.
Everyone must be careful about whom they're teaching something, whether it's a hobby or addiction that you've used to have better just decline anyone that entices you to teach them with it if you want to avoid future problems that might end up blaming you for what they have become.
We don't want that to happen to us since there have been stories like this and not just on other people even, I had bad experiences with it. So to have no feeling of guilt with whatever is going to come, choose who you teach or better not.
2236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cashless Gambling, your thought? on: January 06, 2023, 05:41:29 PM
I think this type of rule has already been implemented in many gambling-friendly countries. It's not just to make the transactions quick and easy but also for their government to have all of those records accessible for their data and safekeeping.
There are pros and cons to this type of ruling for a local government and those that don't like it don't want to handle it too easily to the government that they've got a gambling record. Still, plenty of options for them, thanks to crypto gambling as there are still casinos that don't ask for kyc immediately.
In my place i think funding your gambling with your bank accounts and card is widely allowed throughout the country,  although when its comes to withdrawal of funds and some other things kyc is always needed and me myself i have been using this as a means funding my gambling account online. So i dont think cashless gambling its a bad idea at all, after all these gambling sites are making huge profits from citizens gambling in their platforms so i don't see any wrong intentions for the government wanting to tax them and keep track and records of some vital data.

This makes it very easy for one to gamble anywhere, anytime because you can just easily pick up your and fund your bet with your bank account even if it's 2.am in morning but its has some kinda of disadvantages because i have lost alot of money because of the easy access i have to gambling in my account on virtuals games.
That's good if your country, government, and the banks there aren't too tight with where the source of money or deposits comes from. Because when a bank becomes aware that the money is from a gambling source, they're becoming too strict and sometimes they want you to pull out your funds. This is for some that I've read based on their country's banking law. There's nothing wrong with cashless gambling, it's making things easier for a gambler but for some reasons, it's stated by most related to tax, tracking and other concerns that are valid to consider.

Yes, one of the advantages of casino games is that you can gamble for very small amounts.
You don't say that because, in sports betting, they also don't require a lot of money for one to start betting. So if it's just about the minimum amount to bet, both have a good amount of low limit for bets to make.
I'm for sports betting but I agree with the others that if you want to have fun, casino games are the way to it. Those sounds that they produce upon playing with those are really entertaining and fun.

Welcome coinslotty. It seems that you have executed everything pretty well and partnered with btcgosu. You just did the right thing for your start.
And with what's the title saying about being VPN friendly, that's also one factor that will attract you those gamblers that are always using VPN so that they won't be tracked.
