Parlay was one of the best things that happened in sports betting, imo. I understand the risk involved but if you have knowledge about what you are doing then it's going to be profitable for a gambler. Single betting in a single game is sometimes not enough and you are looking for more multiplication in your bet.
Injecting the parlay system really changed that kind of perspective.
Gamblers are known to take the risk, higher ones, so it's the best answer for that deficiency.
I am not sure if there is more to add, what was indicated do cover the basics.
I agree, the opportunity to make multibets, where you can win with a multiplier that is closer to slots than to sports betting, makes the experience much more enjoyable. Even though you are losing most of your bets, just one win of this kind  makes you so happy that you will surely keep making them multibets in the future. It will not necessarily be profitable in the long run, but a great entertainment is guaranteed.  |

- As a gambler do you use gambling sites to store your coins like what traders are doing on exchanges?
I don't think it is good to have your coins saved in gambling casinos because it has no purpose to put it there, it will not increase in the value because it is not exchange or trade that you want to do with it. You can transfer some coins into the casinos account to playing their games for the purpose of that and nothing on it. You can do transfer of the coin to use for gambling, no need to save it there and casino is centralised. Despite that there are still some decentralized casinos, I would never advise anyone to leave their money in the casinos. That would be so dumb, it's better your coin is in a trusted open-source wallet, and I prefer saving my coin in BTC than any other coin. Your advice of sending the amount needed to play is also a good one as casinos are not your bank or real wallet that you can trust your coins with. However, most of them are centralized, meaning that your money could go at any time if they have issues or they dupe you. Just don't forget that, in contrast to day traders, gamblers don't usually keep a lot of their money on gambling platforms. For successful and profitable trading, the more money you have, the better. But if you think about gambling this way, you are basically sick, and you need a doctor, not a reliable gambling platform. |

Whenever it comes to searching for casinos, players seek to have a lot of problems, because they don't like to reveal their identity and even less where they live, I understand, there are many sick and they are capable of killing to steal, and if there is a data leak they will not hesitate to to do it, and I have realized that in Europe and the USA things are more delicate with that, they have a vision of being developed countries but I have seen that there are many people who have those things that cause damage but a lot of damage, I understand them, but If there are casinos and systems that don't use KYC, why don't they do so now? They have to have KYC requirements. I'm sure, KYC procedure is not a problem for most gamblers around the world. As I said above, it should not be a tedious and time-consuming process, but other than that it's fine. The probability of data leakage from top KYC provider is very low. And even if there is a leak, the probability of someone hunting you down to steal your money is extremely low in civilized countries. And if you are living in an uncivilized country, don't look for where to gamble, look for where to move. |

As in OP, you can only roll once. Still taking it?
~
I would take it, but with a bet size of $2 max. Why not more? Because the probability of losing your bet would be still high, 83% chance of losing, and to have a good chance of taking advantage from those unique conditions, "you get paid x12 of your stake (instead of x6)", I think we need to make at least 100 rolls. With that said, even if I was given 100 rolls, I wouldn't risk more money than I could afford to lose, because every dice player knows that finding yourself in a situation when you win only 3-4 times within 100 rolls playing with 17% win chance is easy, right? |

It's a good article, although an old one. Can you write something about the situation in Crimea now, when it's occupied by Russian military forces and used for attacks on the Ukrainian mainland?
I heard that Crimean Tatars are not only fighting in the Armed Forces of Ukraine against the Russian invaders, but they have also organized an effective partisan movement inside Crimea, bombing warehouses with ammunition and stuff.
Thank you for the good review of the article. As for the situation in the occupied Crimea, after the entry of the Russian army, a harsh punitive regime was established against the Tatar population, whose leaders were either arrested, or left their homeland, or disappeared (killed). Very informative article and very close to the reality and situations of current ERA. ٰ I appreciate the wisdom and prediction of the writer who wrote this article in 2006. But I wonder what the case is in Crimea nowadays as it's not much known in the media either. The thing about the media is that the info can be biased there towards one side or another. I suggest you to read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimeaon Crimea in general. And here's the very first sentence in it(for those who don't have time to go by the link): "Crimea is a peninsula in Ukraine, on the northern coast of the Black Sea, that has been occupied by Russia since 2014." and this article on the Russian occupation of Crimea, in particular: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_occupation_of_CrimeaIf some parts of those articles seem unclear to you, please do ask questions in this thread. |

I mean, are they really same as banks? Banks are controlled by the government, even private ones to some extent. Centralized exchanges do what the government tells them, report all your activities to your government, freeze accounts and censor transactions they don't like, are fractional reserve, risk your money to make profits for themselves, and general keep your under their control. That's pretty much a bank in my book. I don't want to defend CEXs in any way, because so many respected by me people are against them, and I think they know better than me, and, also, I personally don't use them, but just to be clear. Centralized exchanges report all your activities only if an order has been issued by a court, or something like that. They are not doing it by default, right? |

now let's go to the multibet bets that I also consider very risky, if a person makes a multibet bet with a parlay of 3 teams and the odd stays at @4.00 then that person loses a bet, then that bet in another multibet and with odds of @4.00 and loses a bet, but then that person bets on another multibet with an odd of @4.00 and the bet is right, so that person is already in profit and it is enough that the next multibet with an odd of @4.00 is right and there will still be room to place more bets, of course this implies that the person always makes bets with the same amount of money
~
This is exactly why I have switched to multibets several months ago. You win one of them and all your previous losses are covered, or, you can even be in a decent profit if it's a 20x win. Another attractive for me thing about multibets is the possibility of cashing out before all the games are played. Just like today I cashed out 3x of my bet  and it was a cashout. With a single bet, 3x is something not that easy to achieve, right? |

The war between Russia and Ukraine alone shows the terrible impact of the war and if the war between great powers breaks out and they use more modern weapons, I don't think there will be any safe place for us to stay. If we are lucky not to be affected by bombs and bullets, we are also affected by the lack of food, daily food… just thinking about it makes me feel scared. Never expect another great war to happen, it will be the end of the earth.
I think you are right. If a global war happens, there will be no place to hide. It's an illusion that places like Argentina and Chile will be safe. True, they were during the World War II, but not now. The world today is too interconnected and interdependent to have a hope of hiding in some safe place during a global crisis. |

For me the biggest obstacle is the low level of my education which makes it difficult for me to find a good job that can give me the dream of financial freedom. All I do is look for extra income online.
The very fact that you can realize that, tells that the level of your education isn't that low, actually. Really uneducated people think that they know everything, and better than anyone. Only intelligent people are capable of self-criticism. I'm thinking more about saving first and finding a good business that suits me. Don't save. Invest in your education, if you feel like you need more of it. To have more knowledge is always better than to have more money. But it's not like I'm promoting a life of a homeless tramp with some "knowledge". No. I mean, eventually, you'll be able to make some good money using your knowledge. |

That is a great example and with the illustration it is the best to do it, I think that the martingale is a way of betting for those who want to feel the adrenaline at its maximum level, although I have applied it I do not recommend it, because most of Sometimes I have lost, and it is not advisable to tell people to lose their money, because it would be something very bad, it is best for the person to bet without resorting to that strategy, there are many strategies, but above all I believe that before applying any technique it is necessary to emphasize that the strategies are only some of the ways that the players have to follow a type of pattern and enjoy. It is not a sure thing to earn money.Surely, it is not. If you don't know this, you can lose a lot of your money with martingale. In the very beginning of my playing dice I lost all my balance to martingale several times, before I decided to use it for entertainment purposes only. The adrenaline rush you've mentioned isn't that high when you player with smaller amounts of money, but it's still there when it's your 8th red in a row, and that's enough. It should be enough if you don't want to become an adrenaline junkie. |

Not pessimistic at all. The evil empire, Russia, will be finally destroyed, and although it won't solve all the problems in the world at once, peoples from all the continents, including peoples living in Russia currently, will start breathing easier, without worrying about possible world-ending nuclear war and other scary stuff like that. All the people of the monstrous entity now called the Russian Federation, will be finally free from the rule of Moscow, living in their independent states.
Also, Iran protests will lead to the overthrowing of the old-fashioned government and its "Supreme Leader". Just look what wiki is saying about him: "The current longtime Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has been issuing decrees and making the final decisions on the economy, environment, foreign policy, education, national planning, and everything else in the country." Really? In the 21st f*cking century? Educated Iranian people don't want that. They protest against the tyranny of the bloody regime, and they will win the fight. And this will also happen in 2023.

~ We don`t know how qualified is this someone, but there is one moment i`m sure in. This thread was started about half a year ago, so these courses were actual a half a year ago or more. So i don`t sure that it can be useful today, may be if you study online... When you watch YouTube games, you see just the result. If we will just copy their play, we can`t understand why they do so, and if we get situation we haven`t seen we can`t get the right answer how to play.Yes, at first, when just copy the game style of the best players, we don't understand why it works most of the time. But, trust me, with a lot of practice, and I mean practice on the battlefield with real players, not with bots, not with your friends, but with real online players, who want to beat you, eventually you will start to understand why the style of the best in the business works. |

@Betwrong Yeah one more week left to the month and all the good news seems to have been blocked out by other bad news, so all in all not much movement. I truly hope we can capture 17k as support at minimum but it looks like we're be ending December on a slight low, and what I didn't see coming was USD was also going to lose its value against euro, so my prediction seems a bit far off right now. Still, maybe time for a Santa rally, right?
I can't check all the other predictions right now, but I really hope to win with this my first prediction:  Anyway, good luck to all the participants! This situation reminds me of one with slots, when you push the spin button, and although the result is predetermined this very second, you are watching them reels spinning like it is still unknown what will be the result. |

~ Checked the winners list but you don't see any usernames. Hopefully some people from the forum still managed to win a 100$ prize!
I hope so too. I've got only one ticket myself  because I'm trying to not risk high amounts, and so I had extremely low chances of winning, and no wonder I didn't win. However, I'm grateful to Duelbits for providing a chance to win one of those amazing prizes  even to small bettors like me. |

In the end it is just going to be another prediction. Just because the AI makes it, it doesn't mean that it is going to be right all the time. Maybe (and that's a BIG maybe) it will make a difference in the long run but I think none of us have the patience to make hundreds of games to make it work. Most of us are casual gamblers and making bets in a random order.
No, of course it doesn't mean that. Especially regarding this particular AI that OP is talikng about, ChatGPT. Unfortunately it has a "knowledge cutoff". Read its reply to a question about current events:  So, I think using it for sports betting would be pretty much pointless. |

That's a simple match but I am surprised that he took the risk of $1,000,000 in a single bet.
I don't surprise because Drake - DeepPockets6 (stake username) is a bettor who doesn't care about how much he spent money for gambling. several month ago, he bet more money than in Argentina, He put a multibet for 2 million on UFC.  [1]. https://www.casino.org/blog/drakes-latest-bets/~ Those were my thoughts while reading all the posts above about his $1 million bet. I think this guy have allocated about a billion USD for betting, and that's what he is doing. To me personally it would be much more interesting to read about someone betting just $10 and winning a million because of a huge multiplier, but, well, that's me, I perfectly understand that big numbers can draw people's attention. |

^ Hard to know of a poker site's trustworthiness, esp in an environment like crypto. We all know how this place could be the spawning pool of scams it can be.
I'm not saying SWC will scam their players, I'm talking more about if we can trust the poker sites' capability to secure us from player collusion. Look it up, even the largest and the best poker sites have fell victim to player collusion and botting. Most of them coming from Asia, specifically China, and Eastern Europe. And like I mentioned, this is crypto. Be careful out there guys.
I've been playing on SWC for many years and, I don’t know how they do it, but I've never encountered bots or colluding players there. I mean, if you play online poker for long enough, you can easily spot a bot. Now, with colluding players it's a bit harder, but after an hour of playing with them you can spot them too. I think that your concerns are valid overall, and you did the right thing warning poker players, but for me SwC Poker is the last site I would be worried about such things happening there. |

~ Although it is clear that any cashback is pleasant, plus the player usually plays not for the sake of cashback, but for the sake of winnings/adrenaline. And I know (although I have received much smaller cashbacks) that it is always nice to receive this money, as it can be said to be a bonus/surprise.
That's right, any cashback, even if it's only $1, is pleasant, because if you play not for obtaining a bonus, but just for your pleasure, and you are suddenly given some money out of nowhere, you can't be anything but happy about that. But if you want not just a few dollars per month but thousands, you have to wager millions for that. And even though you could be in profit after wagering millions, I personally wouldn't recommend such behaviour. |
