Gambling casinos should not ignore the incident and take measures so such incidents do not repeat in the future.

For such not to repeat itself, it means that the casinos would stop allowing taking of alcohol but I don't know how possible that will be because casinos usually have drinking bars in place for the gamblers especially the slot machines.

Although the man behaved very abnormal because people have been taking alcohol yet such abysmal nudity have not come to the public.

Russia has a large territory and it is impossible to ban cash there in a few years, but many countries have been unlucky in this regard. In countries with a small territory, it is easier to digitize all citizens and make a digital wallet for everyone. In Russia, this will first be implemented where the Internet is massively available, because many people use banking services via SMS.

Putin is trying everything possible not to make the Russians suffer the hardship from the sanctions since the beginning of the war with Ukraine since last year. I remember before the war started, Russia was not a bitcoin friendly country but after the sanctions, effort have been made to legalize bitcoin so that digital transactions can be opened with countries who are willing to trade with them. And now digital ruble is about to be launched in Aug 1 as optional financial transaction and transfers not investment, like other CBDC I think the whole essence is for convenience and ease for the banking industry.

Affiliate marketing is one of the most challenging marketing and as a promoter one really needs to be ready to face several challenges both from the company and your downlines who most time depends on you for all their information and guidance, I don't really like affiliate marketing but to those who have a large number of followers who are actively involved in gambling, an affiliate could be a means of generating passive income on the long run.

-snip-
A bonus that in my opinion is very difficult to get and not all gamblers can do it, yes, this is an affiliate bonus that distributes referrals to a gambling site.
It's easy to share, but it's hard to get gamblers who want to use our links or referrals.
So far, only a few gamblers have been successful with affiliate bonuses, and even then, they have gone through many things so that other gamblers can really trust them.
Affiliate marketing is very difficult because we have to convince people that what we tell them will give them what they want. I remember the words of my neighbors who do business online and offline in affiliate marketing. He said it is very easy to spread our links or materials in many places, but the most difficult thing is how we can invite people to join us and work together to achieve success. The average person complains about not being able to do it because the image people have of this field of affiliate marketing is not very good anymore. Many feel cheated by the way it works, where only those at the top can get the full benefit while those below them have to help those below them again.

It is really difficult to get someone under you especially when they will also require to get another person under them. Such marketing is difficult to achieve. Most people if they observe that is what you are doing, they see it as waste of time for them to join you except you are lucky to have someone who have already made up their mind to sign up a gambling account then it could be easier to talk the person over signing with you.

I prefer that casinos can have bonus of access to direct withdrawal, not wager or spin Grin
2364  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling experience using loan money on: July 28, 2023, 07:34:01 PM

I know of a forum member who borrowed funds from other friends on the forum, a lot of funds, and ended up losing a massive amount on a coin he was "so sure would moon" that he ended up just "running away" and screwing over his friends. 

Just don't do it.

That phrase "so sure would moon" caught my attention because that has been the reason people will borrow money to go for it. They fear they will lose the opportunity if they don't play the lucky dip, they see it as opportunity to get rich and that will lead them into borrowing with the hope that once they stake the game the next thing will be cash out, it never happens that way. If gambling or any other sources of getting money was easy then money would have just been littered on the road. People get into depression when things like this happens especially if you are are trusted person among your friends, you don't have face to stay with them again if you can't repay the debt. This is unfortunate and we need to know that as we are gambling, we don't have to be unreasonable and give the, if it doesn't happen a thought also

The people should consider carefully choosing their leader when a new election comes and preferably the right one should be already working to fix the problem even though he is not in the position yet.

The people know the right candidates to election in an electioneering season and those are the people they go for but the problem is that those corrupt politicians always manipulate the umpire and get thugs to do bidding of carry ballot boxes to go rig themselves in with the umpire  This is really sad because you keep getting and recircling bad eggs in government. These politicians deadly and dangerous, they will kill anybody on their way and that is why those good candidates can't get there easily even when the masses actually vote them in. Until this kind of situation begin to change, terrorism may still continue in Africa.

I will advise you to return to the books so that at least when you get signals you can decide what part to take.

Na better line be this for people wey want to dey trade. At least you no go just dey wait everytime for signal and when you even get the signal you go just use am like that, you no go know left from right whether na fire you dey enter or not. At least small knowledge make sense and if you con get better knowledge plus signal that one mean say you go become pro be that. So reading books and practical make sense. Nice one I agree with you.

To avoid gambling addiction, it starts from using little budget.

Little budget and not to put all your interest and emotion in there because if we allow the emotion go so much attached to even the little we are playing and or losing, we may want to increase more. Therefore, to play with a little disaffection for it will help us to stabilise our emotions. Another point that could make gamblers to increase their budget for gambling is when you are always checking on the gambling sites then your zeal to chase back loses will increase. Also to be a pundit in gambling where you know almost all games in a casino, you want to try them out to try your luck and gradually you start to increase your budget.
2368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Deposit limits on: July 28, 2023, 02:22:54 PM
When a gambler engages in uncontrolled gambling, some casinos and gambling platforms may ask the gambler to take a temporary break. But most casino gambling platforms don't want to take such initiative because this will make them loss in business.
Are you sure about this? When I was using fiat casinos before I joined this forum, I was addicted, I have three different local gambling sites and bet365 which is foreign, none of them stopped me from gambling after I have lost such much more on the four gambling sites. They even make deposit to be easy and fast within seconds.

What I know about soccer betting to be precise in an off line gambling house, there are no limit to how many times you want to play or lose. All I see there is sympathy in the faces of the workers if you have lost heavily   Grin Such sympathy is not made openly because they can't stop you if you insist to play. So what @Rabata is saying could be in other games or in an online casino.

Of course, the experience of new people is still small, but that doesn't mean that new players can't get lucky because some new people have managed to win bigger amounts of money than the old people.
It's good if you can win more than you lose, and you should keep the winning money and don't continue gambling because there is a possibility that you can lose again.

Gambling is not respecting any man or woman or old and young. If you have the mind to bet it then you also have the mind to bear whatever consequences. The betting slip or ticket doesn't know who is a new player or an old time player, it gives you the result of your wager. If as a new player you win on the first try, that is your luck and if not, it also your luck. What we have to understand like you said at the close of your post, we need to know when to quit or continue but it takes an emotionally steady mind to stop playing when he is winning.

He did all these shamefull acts because he was drunk not because he was a gambler.
A gambler can drink and can ran out of control but this is an exception. Anyone who is out of control isn't necessarily a gambler.
Let's keep gambling on this side and alcohol on the other side!
If he's not a gambler why is he in the las vegas casino we know it's the biggest casino too no way he's not a gambler I didn't read much of the news but strangely he was drunk heavily and embarrassing himself there must be some reason or major frustration that experienced because of defeat or whatever it is I'm sure there are other reasons that make him so drunk.


This is not an instance of being frustrated, of course he behaved shamelessly. Alcohol has an intoxicating power that if you don't have that kind of control over it, you may as well act in a manner that is abysmal. I have seen drunks who almost behave like this and not being in control of themselves for a while until their nelves came down before they could understand they have behaved badly in public.
2371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Irresponsible behavior at the Las Vegas Casino on: July 28, 2023, 07:33:01 AM

It's more likely that he took the drugs willingly and is now trying to find any excuse so he will get a lenient sentence or maybe they are trying to preserve his reputation. He might have wanted to experiment with something he wasn't familiar with and had an unforeseen reaction.

It's not that uncommon to see intoxicated people behaving irresponsibly in Vegas but people should be more careful about what the consume so they don't have any incidents such as this one.

Surely the law will go after him for entertaining the public wrongly  Grin. I don't think consumption of alcohol is illegal in vegas though but if that is not the case then the consideration of getting naked in public also is another factor. However, I was thinking that he probably wanted to be popular but reading the article, that may not be his outright reason. I think probably the substance added to his drink might have gotten him overboard on his leaving single status.

Tourism is a people's means to life and wealth. Its one of the major sources for Dubai's wealth as they've invested deep in the system.

The continents are shaped differently and have got unique features and landscape hence, a need for exploitation by those who desire beauty ina nature and what the land has to offer. Africa is no exception to these opportunities to amass wealth and develop its nations.
We've got unique features that would be worth seeing and weather conditions that are worth experiencing.
My guy, its Terrorism the Op is talking about not tourism. know the two conceerts first, there not even close in meaning. always read a thread before contributing.


Terrorism, must be deal with any one found funding these group should be brought to book. thats the only way to reduce these group in the world.

I already sent the user PM 24hours ago to check the post he made misplacing the content of his contribution with terrorism to tourism. They are not the same thing, hopefully he knows that.

Edit: I guess the user has made adjustment to his post.

Anyway, to fight terrorism is difficult because government can not fight itself. It is the government officials that fight themselves because they bring those groups to distort and make a government they don't support ungovernable and when they want those groups to surrender or repent from the assignment, that becomes an issue of its own. Those groups see it as a source to make ransom and continuous intimidation of successive governments. Therefore to fight terrorism, the government must ensure there are no proliferation of arms and seizure of those arms found.

Still waiting for government to label all food with: "The Surgeon General has determined that food is hazardous to your health."


Hahaha the government does not need to label any food as hazardous but based on the health effect of some food, you know some things you put inside your body can cause more damage than they are doing you good. Depending on your age, doctors and health officials have identified that as the age increase so also the limitation of some food, for example sugary foods, processed foods, red meat or smoked type of meat, eggs.
2375  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Antibiotics Linked To Increased Risk of Kidney Stones on: July 27, 2023, 12:37:57 PM

Almost every drug we use has side effects. That is why it is more important to prevent diseases than to cure them because curing is more expensive and risky. For some time now I have considered using home remedies to cure some sickness in other to avoid the risks associated with chemical drugs and their effect on some vital organs in the body. But these homemade drugs from local leaves and roots seem to be ineffective in tackling some infections.


Like you admitted that all drugs have side effects, I believe you are referring to chemical drugs but those chemical drugs are also formulated from same local leaves, herbs and roots. In order words, home remedies of leaves herbs or roots also have effects.

One of the disadvantages of herbs and roots etc are that they don't have dosage. The human body varies and you have to scientifically know what body size takes what like in chemical drugs where there is classification of different levels of age to take a particular dose. So that is one major challenge of medicine not medically and scientifically proven. If you take an abnormal dose of home remedies, same organs are in trouble.

I been think say Nigeria go get am right on top digital economy during Buhari time when Isa Ali Pantami be the minister for Communications and Digital Economy because the young man been try make things begin happen then but to no avail. Emefiele na one man wey no really get direction for the digital economy, him carry CBDC come to frustrate the process wey go bring good prospects for bitcoin. Well for now, I never see the present government looking at all those. Them want seat and balance first if tribunal no kick them out.
2377  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pros and Cons of Crypto vs. Traditional Gambling on: July 27, 2023, 09:05:07 AM

If you choose to use Bitcoin for gambling, and deposit and gamble with Bitcoin, and if the price of Bitcoin falls during your gambling, the casino is in no way responsible for whatever value your coin has dropped, they will give you the same amount of Bitcoin that you have in your account and that's it, it's totally on you since you are the one who chose to use Bitcoin instead of a stablecoin for gambling.

That is right the volatility of bitcoin or any other crypto is not the concern of casino. At payment, they will pay according to current rate of price of bitcoin and also when you are about to deposit to the casino, the same measure of current price rate is used. So it may favour the gambler or at his disadvantage it depends. Therefore it is the choice of the gambler to choose from the range of crypto coins available on the casino. To avoid all those volatility differences, it is better if the gambler play with stablecoin.
2378  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Deposit limits on: July 27, 2023, 02:02:51 AM
Most gamblers won't find the deposit limit that effective as it's suffering the same problem as the other solutions, but still, it'll help gamblers who are having a hard time suppressing their impulse. If you can limit yourself from playing on the best casino around then it's good enough because not everyone will play on other casinos when they don't have the same account progress on other casinos. You start losing a bunch of perks by changing casinos and IMO that can be discouraging enough to follow the limit.

It will be of great help for gamblers if casinos begin to have such limit but I doubt how many casinos don't want money. They need money to continue existing because they have to pay bills. Gamblers will definitely like it on a casino implementing it and they will shift their patronage towards it. It is lack of emotional control that get people into refunding of account after they have lost because they want to regain what they have lost, so having such automatic deposit limit either daily, weekly or monthly will help gamblers.
2379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: July 27, 2023, 12:00:43 AM
These days I have been wondering whether people with problems of gambling addiction also can get psyquiatric help rather than only appointments with a psychologist.
In the case of depression, anxiety and even insomnia, we all know that some prescription medicine can help to relieve the symptoms. There must be some drugs which could allow problem gamblers to curb the anxiety for playing in casinos, even when they know they have a problem.

I have never heard of it, so to this day I have assumed they only can receive therapy, which sounds rather hard to them, keeping in mind of far these addictions can go.

Have anyone heard about it, drugs for people who are in such position?

I will doubt it that gambling addiction is a medical situation and this is a subtle answer to the question arising from your post. I think it has more of behaviour addiction whose primary remedy is phycology based than psychiatrist whose main base is madness symptoms. Except the huge losses get to the brain of the  gambler and begin to produce symptoms of madness otherwise gambling addiction is purely behavioural.
2380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nigeria continuous banning of crypto on: July 26, 2023, 06:41:56 PM
So how are these Nigerians accessing bitcoin ? Through what means are they purchasing this since there capital controls on usd and the roll-out of the cashless cbdc hasn't been optimal.

Binance is still in Nigeria crypto space. The government only disabled some accounts and nothing more to that except politics. So at the moment binance is still doing business in Nigeria. Moreover, talking about how to access bitcoin in Nigeria, apart from binance there are other exchanges that are doing business in Nigeria, Nigeria has a very large crypto community and so exchanges have more market to cover in Nigeria.
