but back to our luck later on january 28th. as we have seen these days bitcoin is only running in the price of 22k - 23k as reassuring if the price prediction will only fall between it. but if my prediction is that bitcoin will be more than 23k

I think I know the winning price. Smiley



Most of the earlier predictions, including mine, were too pessimistic, as we can see now. But my second one wasn't that bad. Smiley



Now it's hard to say who will win because there were predictions by some inactive(in the forum) users in the thread, but whatever decision will be, I'll accept it, because I respect this simple law: "Your money - your rules".

Congrats to the winners, and thank you, Bitcasino.io, for the Bitcoin Predictor contest!

~ It's unclear whether or not the use of AI for predictions can be used to games of chance or sports betting without further data. Before putting your money into anything, it's important to conduct your research and keep an eye out for red flags that might indicate a scam. If you want to make a wise choice, it's best to do some investigating and get some second opinions. It's also likely that plenty of individuals are already making predictions using AI, but knowing that with any degree of accuracy would be challenging. When it comes to your personal finances, you should always err on the side of caution and put your own well-being first.

I can imagine how to use AI for sports betting, but since Chat GPT's database is not updated regularly(in fact it's more than a year old, if I'm nit mistaken), we can't use the AI for that yet. But my question is, how, even theoretically, we can use AI for the games of chance? I mean, it can tell you what part of your bankroll to stake at once to, theoretically, last longer, but in reality your very first bet can be that with the highest multiplier possible, and no AI can tell you for sure that it won't happen.
2443  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Common Online Gambling Fraud on: January 30, 2023, 10:55:47 AM
Another fraud is using multiple accounts to avoid bet limit.

Usually when the gambler is really lucky and always win, the casino will limit the gambler's maximum bet since it's to prevent the gambler will make a lot money if he bet large amount. I don't really understand why such user done this because they can just move to other reputable and trusted casino, there's no huge difference with each casino, only the odds is smaller, but the difference isn't huge maybe around @0.01-0.05.

Me too. Also, is there a such thing as limiting someone because he's just "too lucky"? I mean, I heard about it used to be a thing in the past with land-based casinos, but I've never heard about something like this regarding reputable online casinos.

What about Loan scammers in chat .. ?

There are quite a lot of people in casino chat channels... that will ask for small loans and then people will fall for their stories and they will loan them money. Those people use Alt accounts or accounts that they have bought from other people .... and when they receive the money, they will simply cut and run.

These people will also stalk people's social media accounts, when they spot them on other social media platforms. (Telegram / Twitter ...etc)

No one will loan money to someone unknown, so, we can discard alt accounts, I think. But as for a known account bought from someone, it's possible, although I've never heard of such cases in reality. I mean, it happens in social media all the time, but in casino chat channels ...  I've never heard of it.
2444  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your biggest obstacle to achieving financial freedom ? on: January 29, 2023, 01:51:07 PM
one of the biggest obstacle is my bad luck
I have never been luck - I m not a lazy person either but I lose interest in things which are not giving me benefit.
And the other thing is trusting people - I am such a fool  that I made so many mistakes and never learnt it
I think no one who has bad luck only. Everyone has good & bad luck, it depends on how the effort is. If you do anything with a smart way, serious, and eager to learn from the mistakes, I believe you will have good luck at the end of the day. But if you only do a small effort and always has negative mindset, you will never have good luck.

IMO, your problems are:
1. Don't want to learn from mistakes
2. Not use a smart way
3. Always think anything negatively (negative mindset)
4. Don't want to try hard efforts



Agree. The problems you mentioned apply to many people who are always blaming other people/things when failure comes across. The poisonous mindset stops them from attaining what they want. I'd alway remind myself of this whenever I have a negative thinking.

Like if your mindset is not "poisonous"(whatever that means), you will easily achieve your financial freedom?

Blaming others in your failures isn't going to help you, that's true, but realizing it is only a start. A very good start, I have to admit, but it's not enough for achieving your goal. You have to be ready for a long way through hardworking and many failures. It can be a journey of years, many years, not just one or two. You have to be ready to learn things, like people in this thread have suggested. ... But I agree, blaming others is the first thing you have to abandon.
2445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino games plebs like us must play on: January 29, 2023, 12:57:47 PM
Being a plebs doesn't mean we need to get ourselves intimidated in gambling but we must stand to our feet by maintaining only what we can do and know doing well, there's no need of hiding under a covering in pretence when we have no idea about a particular game newly introduced, we have to just learn and improve ourselves and bring down the ego ~

To me all games feel the same, more or less. Those "newly introduced" ones have some slight variations, but they are so small that you don't have to spend your time learning about them.

~ because at the end everyone must have passed through this learning stage, either casino or sport betting doesn't mean as long as you can win and have interest in choosing them, this means we must have a starting ground to build ourselves in gambling before we can have varieties and choice to select when choosing a casino game.

It's a big mistake to think that you can learn how to win in games of pure chance. It's dangerous mistake often leading to gambling addiction. Be careful.

Thanks for the reminder, my friend! Smiley Yeah, I missed some, but I hope it won't happen again.
Btw, congrats on receiving Ledger Nano X from Betnomi! Good job!



FC Bayern Munich let me down this time. I was confident about their victory on the Allianz Arena stadium. And they did score on the 34th minute, and later there was a moment when I thought my 2-0 prediction could be the exact one, but it didn't happen. What's more, they conceded a goal later, by pure chance, imo, but, who cares, the final score was 1-1.

I'm wondering, will there be bets on the Academy Awards accepted in the Freebitco.in's betting section this year? I remember times when the site was accepting bets on many categories, and the odds sometimes were better than on other sites too.

~
So i dont think media should mention about china invade tawain at all it's not so much interesting info for public.
~

All the more so because it will never happen. Anti Western folks are fond of saying that it is the West that is heavily dependent on China, but the reality is quite the opposite. China's economy is already in trouble, and if China tries to invade Taiwan, all ties with the richest countries in the world will be broken, and no one will be there to help to improve the situation. China's leaders know it, and they will never try to do such a stupid thing as invading Taiwan.
There have been so many deaths in the past 2/3 years particularly due to COVID and earlier due to Afghan US war and then the war lord were not happy people sitting their home and are struggling to make their end meet so they decided and other war - the war b/w Russian and Ukraine and still they think the world population is growing so we should have another war - war against Taiwan

Conspiracy theories? The "war lords"? Yet another war to reduce the population of the overpopulated world? Let me guess, "Putin is the saviour"? Smiley

I find it funny that there are still people like you, who can read and write, and yet they can't grasp anything more complex than Russian propaganda feeding them with that Neanderthal garbage.
2449  Economy / Services / Re: POKER COURSES FOR SALE on: January 28, 2023, 04:27:19 PM
~ Only don't make another job out of it. Just have fun playing. Smiley

$5-$10 buy-ins are about my level too, and although you can still see those all-inners in such tournaments too, you can simply ignore them, because there's only a few of them, one at a table or even less. You can't be ignoring them if there's half of the players like that.
Surely so, i tried to make poker my way of income several years ago. I spent 10-12 hours every day playing 4 tournaments one time. It was awful for me. So no more job in poker Smiley

Yes, it is easy to ignore several, always there are someone who ready to catch them. Smiley

This is interesting. Playing at so many tables at once has never worked for me. I mean, not never. At first I thought it was the best way to play poker, but it didn't take long before I realized that it wasn't worth it.

What about you? You said it was awful because it was hard, but how about profitability? Was it negative, or just too small?
The main idea was that i was waiting for nice cards. When i got strong cards, i fold all other tables.

Yeah, but it's never free, following this strategy, I mean. You have to buy four tickets first, before you can play at four tables, right?

Profit grew up fast, but for 3-4 first hours, after that i began to make mistakes. And everything was nice - no one diverted me, no calls, big monitor - ideal conditions. I think that it was interesting experiment, and it is possible to get some profit this way, but you have to modify your game tactics.

This is like a major rule, innit? You don't change your game tactics playing with the same people, you lose.

I'm playing poker right now, while writing this post, and I want to confirm what I said earlier: it takes not that much time, like 15-20 minutes, before you know an absolutely new(to you) player pretty well, and if he won't change his style, he will lose all his chips to you.

~ Lol there are indeed a lot of not known teams and I don't really like to bet on a team that I don't know. Why would the underdogs win against the favorites? Yes, we will have some upsets but I would look for some value bets instead.
If it's just for fun, it will be fine because sometimes we also want to bet on something unknown out of curiosity.
And if the statistics of the two teams are not too far apart and we have difficulty choosing the team, we could choose the underdog because sometimes the underdog can turn things around and in the end, they win.
I once casually chose a team from two teams that would compete and I didn't know either of them but I wanted to place a bet at that time and by chance, I won Grin

Apart from the fact that betting on something unknown is fun indeed, there's also another attractive thing is such betting: the much higher odds than for a bet on a likely-to-win team/athlete. I personally adore making such bets, and, in fact, they make up the majority of my bets.
2451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: January 28, 2023, 12:35:54 PM
~ when the underdog wins, the AI will never foresee it. but definitely, the AI or any other sports picker will predict which team has a high probability of winning.

Yes, and that will affect the odds right away. So, what we would may need the AI for, is to dig out an info that few people are aware about. Like a facebook post by a close relative of an athlete telling that everyone contracted COVID after a family event. It won't be in the news, but it can affect the outcome significantly.

But we need the AI which database is constantly updated on an hourly basis. And ChatGPT is not such an AI, at the moment.
2452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your take on this crypto gambling use case idea? on: January 28, 2023, 11:57:40 AM
Do you think it makes sense if a crypto gambling platform only accepts it's own token for gambling and gambling on it's platform? If the games they offer are one-of-a-kind, new, and addictive wouldn't this make the gambling token very valuable? I am asking on behalf of a friend who wants to build his own crypto gambling project on the blockchain. Will this work? Will this fail? What's your take on this?

Yes, I'm sure, it will. If it will be a unique game and, at the same time, gamblers will be preferring it over others, not only it will be generating huge profits for the creators/owners, but the token associated with it will go to the moon, and many people will be making profits only from buying the token in the early stage. The only problem is to create such a game, a game that despite many hundreds of years of evolution of gambling industry will be better than all its competitors.
2453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this safe to say this about casino platforms on: January 28, 2023, 11:20:07 AM
Is it safe to say that casino platforms is running their business with users find only? I read somewhere that they pay winners with losers money, I couldn't ask him or her if a casino can start business with zero fund at hand, I know that most of them wired their system to favour them more ( lose more and win less ) , if not they will run out of business fast I belief, what do you think about this? Was I wrong about this? Come to think of this, there is no prove that they have some money to pay winners.

Only if a casino has many thousands of users(better millions), they can be paying winners with losers money, and carry on with no problems(in this regard). It's obvious that when only a few people lost some money on the platform, the place don't funds for paying out big wins.

I'm curious, are there laws regulating the minimum a casino should have to be allowed to open? They are different in different countries, for sure, but it would be interesting to read any of them.

I tried to search more on this case but found nothing new, no updates on the story. Maybe it's because I don't speak Portuguese, and it's more of a local news there. Anyway, it would be interesting to read not only updates, but a more detailed account of this one.

I said that the chance is small for you to be out of the top 20 because the reward for top 20 are all the same.
I would have said your chance is big to be out if the reward is similar to the VIP slot challenge (the higher multiplier, the bigger reward).
With the fact that the reward are all the same, players wont try hard to get higher multiplier because they get the same reward for higher multiplier.
Well congrats for your additional reward, although the reward is just 1/4 of your profit from your winning bet with 1000+ multiplier.

Thank you! Yes, it was just 1/4 of my profit that I got with that lucky spin, but still it was a good reward, $50, and it was especially pleasant to get $50 instead of $25 which I was expected.

In the next round I hit a pretty good win too



and I was hoping(although I knew my chances were slim) to end up in the top 20 again, but the competition was harder this time:



Still got a nice bonus for participating, tho:



These Stake challenges are so great, I can't stop participating in them. Smiley
2457  Economy / Gambling / Re: What else should an established crypto casino add? on: January 25, 2023, 11:58:16 AM
~
Yes, I think that if we look at the loyalty that we can have to certain casinos, it is because they meet certain criteria that we like and that is not bad, it is quite the opposite, very good, because seeing that we have something in common that continues to attract us to the casino will keep us there, we can look for other hills, play in other casinos, but for some reason we return to the favorite, and I think that due to this type of taste is that we have seen some threads that are built on what they want many users in a casino, I think we have all come across threads like that, all this to lead to a casino that tries to please the great ecosystem of players in bitcointalk and outside of bitcointalk.

That's right, one of the most important things an established crypto casino should have is the community. Some sites ignore it, and they are still doing well in their businesses nevertheless, but in the long run they might lose the competition to those with a strong and devoted community. So, hiring proper managers for all language groups on the platform, is the must, I would say.

Placed this beauty - Won it - placed a new bet after that one and lost everything haha so it seems I still need to watch some Dota 2 games and maybe even play again 1-2 games when I have time.

Still ...it was so close to hit second bet as well but hey , I got it from a free bet and I was mega happy when I saw I got some free bets from Sportsbet in my account. <3

Sorry that you lost your second bet, mate. I wish you, me, all of us here were winning all the time, but as we all know, ***it happens, right? As the saying goes, "sometimes you eat the bar, and sometimes the bar eats you".

Just look at my past round on Superbru:



And I was thinking hard before each pick. I have a feeling that if I made them blindly, I'd perform better, tbh.

Good luck to you next time. And yeah, seeing some free bets from Sportsbet always makes us happy, no matter what's next. That is the truth. Smiley
2459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gates of olympus on: January 24, 2023, 04:20:43 PM
As for how to play it, it's like with any other slot, you don't need to know anything, just push the button, and anything that follows entirely depends on luck.

Yes, that is generally how slot games work. To play a slot game, you typically select your bet amount, press the spin button, and then the reels will spin. The combination of symbols that land on the reels will determine whether you win or lose.

I'm always confused when I hear someone claim to follow some techniques or strategies while they play slots. Slots are games of chance, and the outcome of each spin is determined by a random number generator. There are not strategies that will increase your chances of winning.

You can't increase your chance of winning by applying any "strategy" to a particular slot, that is true. However, what you can do is you can choose among thousands of slots the one you want to play. I mean, if the max payout of a slot is 500x, you have exactly zero chances of winning something better. And if you want to have at least a small chance of winning thousands times of your bet, you choose other slots, like Gates of Olympus, for example, which has 5,000x as the max payout.
2460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's a good idea to just register on casino on: January 24, 2023, 03:38:44 PM
I registered for an offer given on this forum, actually it was totally free with the restriction you must play through the money many times over before you would be allowed to withdraw it free and clear.    Since its free 'cash' to play any game I took the offer and understood having to play it 20x which is alot but I have nothing to lose so thats quite powerful incentive.  
  I managed to master one of the slots, cant remember why that one in particular sure it was the music or something funny like that but I could get multiple bonus wins often enough so why complain.    I was too scared to play others just the one I liked and seemed to know to win at so amazingly I doubled up my bonus amount and played it many times till I qualified for withdrawal.   Then BTC worth went up much higher so it was no small amount, very nice offer.   I'm sure others can do similar though the good luck cant be guaranteed I was very grateful.  [They did require me to make a deposit as a final detail but no problem to withdraw my balance after that.]

Your example is showing that all the replies like "it's not a good idea", and there are half of the replies like that, they are not completely right. When you have to wager your bonus multiple times and you can do it on slots, we all know, anything can happen. There is a myth that when you play with bonus money, the payouts will be lower and you will never hit the highest ones, but it's just a myth. In reality slots payouts are not dependent in the slightest on whether it's real money, FUN money or bonus money.
