There are two differences there, so the recommendation for the OP is to look for free coin faucet sites currently that are still active, namely freebitcoin and faucetpay where both have games for users to play money there, they are not limited like in casinos, really all users can withdraw that money although it takes a long time to collect them.
These faucets are completely pointless and are a total waste of time these days. They were quite valuable several years ago when BTC price was on the lower side, but they are worthless now for obvious reasons.

There are way, way better options out there to earn without investing anything at all.
If they still want it, they can still use the site to get free satoshi prizes without having to use it again to gamble because that will make them lose their satoshis. Maybe it could be a trial for them to get free satoshi before they deposit their money to the exchange or gambling site. But they must remember that gambling is not a place or a way to make money but only a place of entertainment.

They are better off looking for other ways to make more money, like investing or trading, but should have enough skills and knowledge to get started. And playing faucets cannot be used to make money for now because the rewards are very small.

This is where the discipline and self-restraint play an important part. One won't fall for the cycle of mistakes if he's behaved enough and know his lessons in life. It's not always needed to learn from your own mistakes, rather it's much better if you learn from others mistake so you won't have to go through the same hardship and troubles they've overcome. You can always know better once you learned from other processes.

Additionally, sometimes temptations aren't meant to be run away from, rather should be eliminated so you can have a good course in life. If you can't resist it, remove yourself from it. Go for hiatus for a while or totally quit if you really think you'll just end up being drawn to it. Although it's pretty much difficult to totally quit as well. It take courage and determination.
As long as he could learn to control himself, he could prevent those mistakes from happening and could avoid them well. It's probably fine if he's still in the learning stage since everyone needs to learn more to master good self-control. Continuing to learn, it is what can improve his ability to control himself so that he does not repeat previous mistakes and can overcome difficulties in the middle of his journey well.

I agree with taking a short break from gambling because it is proven to give peace and not think about gambling continuously. Maybe it's still difficult to stop completely, so it's better to rest for a few days is highly recommended. So after taking a break from everything, including gambling, can provide peace for us so that if we return to gambling with friends, we won't feel pressure from them and can respond relaxedly.

I mean, it is natural people do not know what to do with that money. When someone buys a lottery ticket they are supposed to have low expectations on it, because the extremely small chances of actually getting the money. If we argue whether it is better to do plans with money one does not even own or having a lot of money but not being sure of what to do with it.

All those cases when people end up going bankrupt after winning the lottery happen because the least thing which goes through their mind is to talk about a financial advisor or get informed on how the rich manage to keep their bank accounts full through time. So yes, it is about the seeking of self gratification as fast as possible.
It's natural that people who win the lottery don't know what to do with their winnings, but they shouldn't be in a rush to buy things they don't need. They may need to calm down for a few days while planning what to do with their winnings. It would be better than having to rush into making decisions to buy those things because it does nothing to affect them other than spending their money on less necessary things.

Having good planning for their future will help them to use their money well and be able to prepare for a better life. In addition, they also avoid bankruptcy by using the winning money for things they don't need.

Yes, it's true, because it's just a demo account, where everything in it is just something that we can't possibly feel the results of, and it's true, we can only see the addition or reduction of the balance, nothing more than that. But on the other hand, I think the presence of a demo account can help us a little to help our curiosity when we want to gamble but don't have the capital to bet, so we can play on a demo account to at least cure a little curiosity even though we can't withdraw money if win. Well, it's true, when we dive into a real account, of course we can't create a chance for the win to come and we will only depend purely on luck and we can only hope to get a win in every round that is in progress. If we play on an original account, then all we can do is a few factors of self-control to minimize some of the possible losses that may come. So for the original account I think we can't do anything there except get lucky.
And using the demo mode helps us to learn the games we want to play for real money. And of course, we can only play using the demo mode so that we won't feel a real defeat. And with the demo mode, we can also avoid the gambling addiction gamblers usually get using live mode. This also helps people who don't have good self-control to avoid losing too much. But indeed, those who only use demo mode want to play gambling games without using real money. Besides that, maybe they won't feel the real pleasure from gambling, but playing the game in demo mode can still be pleasurable.

Isn't it common practice for these opportunistic industries to profit off the world's woes? People were already confined to their houses due to the pandemic and suffering from worry when the gambling business swooped in, sensing a chance to earn quick cash! Some people may have learned about cryptocurrency thanks to the growth of online gambling and crypto casinos, but at what cost? People lost sight of the true risks of gambling due to the simplicity of digital transactions. Not only will you lose money right away, but you'll also become involved in the unstable world of cryptocurrency! Why did these folks jump in with both feet into a world they hardly knew? Did they pause to consider the possible repercussions of merging the unpredictable realm of crypto with the uncertain world of gambling?
And the gambling industry saw an opportunity from yesterday's pandemic to increase its performance by creating many advertisements that could attract more people to visit its casinos. This has been proven by the increase in the gambling industry during the pandemic. Many of the online casinos especially online crypto casinos experienced a surge from the pandemic so that also increased their revenue. But the risk of gambling will still be there and they must pay attention to the risks and must try to prevent large losses. If they entered the crypto world not from gambling, maybe they could see an opportunity to make big profits from crypto. But sadly, only a few are willing to learn more about crypto while others stick to crypto for gambling.

~snip~
On the time that pandemic hits then online gambling platforms or companies did really make out that huge recognition since people cant really go into physical places.Revenue rises but now that we are going back to normal then physical places are already on operation on which it did really make that normalized but in speaking about industry growth then we are really seeing that significant increase year by year on which does simply means that there are really that gradual increase of gamblers because there would be no increase if there would be no people who do get interest on gambling thing.Its a matter of demand and recognition on which it is really just that normal that revenue and relevance would increase too. There would be no exact numbers about overall revenue or increase on year by year but basing up on the numbers of current existing businesses then we can actually say that it is really that still having that demand.
The pandemic hit it was a good time for crypto to get a lot of new customers where people who are at home can't go anywhere and they might get bored of not being able to do anything at home. And the presence of online gambling made them feel that there was fun they could get so some of them started to try it. And this is also experienced by crypto casinos where they also get many new customers who visit online crypto casinos to play gambling. And that's what makes crypto casinos more and more often create advertisements to invite more people to gamble. And when physical casinos have started to reopen, this doesn't really affect online casinos, fiat or crypto because everyone has found what they are looking for so they keep using online casinos to gamble and also keep visiting physical casinos to play gambling too.

I didn't have a strong influence to continue gambling, but I even wanted to reduce my gambling time even more. And it seems I still have to learn a lot to control myself so I can reduce my gambling time. And even though I still gamble a lot, I still don't forget my goal of gambling, which is just to have fun. I don't think you need to stop participating in signature campaigns if you can still learn to control yourself well. Everything depends on you. If you can handle everything well, you will be fine.

What happens is that when we enter a casino, many of us forget things like probabilities or something like that, we always want to play, have fun, even though we know the apparent risks in casinos, we always give it a try, because Despite all this, we are still there, and I think that what many players keep is the hope to be able to do things, so the fact of thinking that they are going to win, or that they can win is enough to play, no more is needed nothing, apart from what gives an interest, or gives some emotion in some, that sometimes fills the person with that hope.

We, as good players, know that in any lottery, there will always be hope, those hopes are or can be called probabilities, and of course they can be quantified, to give an exact point of things is a bit difficult when it comes to these things, in lotteries it is difficult to predict what number will fall, some, among the most studious, are ceuta to give some results, because depending on what is played in lotteries it can be with many factors, also in this there is no type of pattern to follow there is no formula, much less, you can get statistics from everything we have played and how close we have been to the result, to be the winners more work is needed, I don't know, maybe further on in the future they will have Combined mathematical models through robots that can determine if use can win or not, but it is or is a very remote possibility.

The possibilities are many, and I think that the possibility vs. probability things may have some kind of correlation to be able to do something, however, I would not focus much on looking for the possibilities but rather the probabilities, but what occurs to me is that through a It is my own record to determine how close you are to achieving victory, is what occurs to me, because carrying out a general study where it is possible to determine what number is going to come out, that is something that I do not see viable until now
When we enter the casino, we can forget what we are doing to prevent things that can cause us to lose a lot of money because when we start playing, we will get pleasure, and among the many pleasures, that is what makes us forget our purpose of gambling. We get so hopeful about winning by playing various gambling games that we forget the time to stop, which causes us to lose a lot of money. But if we can manage self-control well, we certainly will remember to anticipate loss so it doesn't get bigger, and we can also stop just in time.

All gamblers must realize this, both online and offline, so that we don't get trapped by the fun that comes from playing gambling and can avoid lots of losses. And if we just want to gamble, we have to focus on gambling and not drink alcoholic beverages, especially if we can't control ourselves so we don't get drunk later. We also have to be able to distinguish between playing gambling and enjoying the pleasure of drinking alcohol and not getting drunk when we play gambling because that can also make us forget the boundaries we have made.

You are right, if any group link is available from any telegram then it should not be trusted. Because it might be a fake telegram group. However, trust can be placed in real groups, especially in groups where long-time close friends are found. Because they will not give any bad advice. There must be some experienced gamblers who can give accurate results sports bet. But the best way is to acquire the power of self-realization. One should never expect to win by depending on someone else. If anyone could give that assurance they would be making more money.
If it is a real group consisting of our close friends, we can trust it, especially if most of them can provide a good analysis so that we can follow what they suggest. Some of our friends may have become professional gamblers, but they won't tell it to other friends either. It is their business because if they share their predictions with us, we are lucky because we might have a chance to win. But we shouldn't forget them if we win. We can celebrate with them.

well, this is what I mean that betting on sports betting is more relaxed unlike casino games which can trigger the hormone dopamine in the brain which will cause adrenaline to increase and anxiety to start appearing after that bad things happen in the long term. so lately I have been avoiding betting games in casinos a little because I think with a budget of $50 if you consistently bet on strong teams and have gone through our analysis the results will be much better and always hold a commitment not to bet on every match but only bet on certain matches only to save our budget and winnings. so our budget is able to bet a few weeks.

regarding some people who still gamble for fun after placing a sports bet, it does not matter as long as betting on casino games uses the money from the sports betting winnings. so budget management for gambling is very important.
That means you have to keep studying the analysis by collecting more data so you can find a team that has the potential to win. And perhaps you can have more luck in getting a big win, especially if you place a bet above $ 3 for one bet. Perhaps I'll try it later, but I'm not sure I can win the bet because I can't collect data on the teams that will compete.

But it is an option that can give us pleasure, and it is okay if we want to try betting on sports betting because it is gambling too. And hopefully, you can get your big win in sports betting.

If you want to try it, you can visit freebitco.in and get the faucet distributed for free once per hour. So you can collect more satoshis every day, and you can also use them for gambling. With the reputation that freebitco.in has, you can start anytime, but to reach the minimum withdrawal, you may need a very long time.

Apart from freebitco.in, you can try it at betfury.io, owl.games, and blackjack.fun. But for the latter, I don't know if they allow you to withdraw the coins without making a deposit first.
2491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Big is the online gambling industry today? on: August 16, 2023, 03:22:32 PM
The industry keeps getting bigger and bigger since more places now accept gambling.
It is true that gambling had a stigma attached to it and this is why back then casinos were establishments that you could only find on the bad part of town and you needed to even know a secret code to be allowed entry, however this has changed during the last decades and the pandemic gave a huge boost to the gambling industry as people were bored to death on their homes, still I think that with new technologies like the metaverse gambling will become even more popular than what we can imagine.
And with yesterday's pandemic, the gambling industry could grow more rapidly because people couldn't go anywhere and had to stay home for safety. And lucky for them because there is still an internet connection that can help them find out the situation happening in many countries. And while they were looking for information about the state of affairs in those cities, they saw more and more online gambling advertisements, and at one point, they saw a crypto casino and started to get curious. From this curiosity, they then try to visit it and deposit a different amount of money than what they usually use. From there, they started to know crypto and use it for gambling.

Despite this clear advise towards gambling and gamblers, it is imperative that people will always incline themselves to what they find pleasure and passion in doing. Gambling may start as fun but consistency and persistence might turn it into an addiction. If for any reason you have to gamble, gamble responsibly.
It can only be implemented by a small number of gamblers, while other gamblers cannot do it but instead end up becoming addicted to gambling. At first, they feel pleasure from gambling but don't control their gambling correctly, so it turns into wanting to play gambling continuously. Even though they don't have more money than other people, they will just run out of all money, and it's true that in playing this gambling, they must be able to become responsible gamblers so they don't experience big losses. And everything can only be controlled by learning self-control so that they are controlled not by gambling but by themselves.
2493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction. on: August 16, 2023, 02:37:14 PM
Does this work the same on apps I wonder? Like clearing the data would hard reset everything you see. In the cache thing though, I'm not totally familiar with it but isn't the data stored within a specific cache tagged to your account? That is why your ads are matched whether you view them from a phone or laptop/desktop. At least that's how I think it works, so I don't think clearing the cache would actually work. Not familiar with how they store data so idrk, might be better to if needed, just create a new account and format everything to remove any possible connections, maybe even stop using devices as others have said altogether if possible.
I suppose not even that is going to be enough, all of that information not only is associated with an account but with you as a person.

So even if you could start over and get new devices, accounts and even phone numbers for everything, the moment you input your name in one of those services then all your previous preferences are going to be linked to your new account, and if you are a gambler that is trying to stop yourself from doing it you will still receive many ads related to it, which could make you fall into temptation and gamble even if that was not your intention.
Perhaps for the better, he doesn't need to use a smartphone like he is now using if he is afraid to return to gambling again. He could just be on a normal phone that can't connect to the internet or all his social media accounts or whatever, so he won't feel the urge to go back to gambling again. But this is hard to do because it means we leave the conveniences that we had before and will not use them again if we cannot cure our gambling addiction. But if he can do it until he recovers from his gambling addiction, he will not return to gambling again, even if he is back to using his smartphone as before. This depends on the ways someone wants to stop gambling wants to do, and the ways will certainly vary.

Boys. You can't imagine how relax I am when decide to quit gamble. Here is the way. I will stream all my gambling behavior with recording. No stream No gamble. If you are going through the same situation, join me. You will obtain a new life.
Your experience in gambling may not be the same for others. Gambling may not be as safe as you if no one else makes the same mistakes you have made. There are some gamblers who consider gambling as a means of enjoyment. For them, that happiness is more important than money. Moreover, many people have achieved good reward by gambling. Though not everyone will be so lucky. But if it is not conceived as a financial field for earning then gambling will not be a threat to one's life.
Indeed, our experience will not be the same as other people's, but we will have the same goals when we want to stop gambling, but we will also use different methods. But if anyone can stop gambling easily, that's a good thing because they don't encounter difficulties when they want to stop while other people will encounter difficulties that might be unimaginable.

But if they can get a win from gambling, that means they are very lucky. And it would be even better if they could control themselves while playing gambling to reduce the number of losses. So keep it up if you can stop gambling easily because there aren't many people who can't do it yet.
2495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Abuse ... on: August 16, 2023, 01:54:27 PM
~snip~
It is true that both reasons for gambling bring a gambler back again and again. Some gamblers are motivated to win more after they win and some lose and come back to recover that money. If one can enjoy the pleasure of gambling for once, he will definitely try to continue gambling. Every gambler should be calm in that situation. Greed will work in gamblers but if they control that greed they will not suffer rather they will gain more. If someone acquires a good knowledge of self-control before gambling, they can do relatively better in gambling.
If they can't control their greed, they will continue to lose money, especially if they can't control themselves in trying to recover from previous losses. They will not be able to enjoy gambling as entertainment, instead, they will chase victory, which will be more difficult. It is better that they can control themselves to prevent the greed that will come to them, especially when they can win at gambling. They will not experience more losses because of the self-control they have exercised, and they can use gambling as entertainment.

~snip~
Not only someone who is addicted to gambling, but anyone anywhere who has the intention or purpose of using gambling to be able to provide personal gain will certainly not think of abusing gambling, for example, someone who has a crime case related to large amounts of will definitely only think of using gambling as a a place to launder all the money in order to get rid of evidence or traces of crime.
That's natural because everyone, especially those who are still beginners, have more high curiosity and don't even care about the risks involved and the most important thing is that they prioritize to be able to win, win and win in greater numbers.
Whether they win or lose, I think they will keep coming back to gambling because gambling has changed the point of view, way of thinking and also the initial purpose of getting into gambling.
For those who are already fond of gambling it will still be difficult to avoid gambling again and the shadow of defeat appears every time which makes the feeling of wanting to get back the lost money in.
They will think about how to achieve their goals and intentions, perhaps they will even try to use them for illegal activities that the casino prohibits. But they don't care and will do it anyway. When someone has had fun playing gambling, they will return another day and perhaps use more money. And that has happened to other people who have played gambling more often, but in getting wins, they are still having trouble. Only good self-control can stop gamblers from sinking too deep into gambling and prevent problems that can occur while gambling. But if they only want to win, it won't be easy for them to stop gambling or even take a break from gambling for a while.

~snip~
Abuse can be done from all elements that meet the requirements to do so. in gambling, it doesn't feel right if someone becomes addicted to gambling and then we categorize it as abuse. if we refer to the OP thread, especially those related to drugs, which should be redeemed through a doctor's prescription. we can conclude, if someone buys it illegally then clearly he has made a mistake and is included in the category of abuse.

But for gambling, IMO it is very biased if we try to compare it. At present gambling is included in the category of types of entertainment in the modern era, in fact there are many countries that have legalized it. legally every gambler who becomes an addict, is the result of his own fault. So, no abuse in this case. well, as I said above, gambling abuse can be done from all elements that qualify to abuse it. for example, cheating on the casino, or, trying to sell an account that is actually not allowed by the casino. there are many other examples, which fall into the category of abuse. however, not for gamblers who become addicts.
Abuse occurs when we use it excessively. So in terms of gambling, if we use gambling excessively or in the sense that we exceed the limits we set, it means that we have abused the use of gambling intended to get entertainment. But instead, we use gambling as a way to earn income where it will not always work. Maybe some people can get money from gambling, but many are not successful and instead lose a lot of money.

So if someone uses gambling excessively, he has the risk of losing more money and also becoming addicted. It will start from being addicted to playing different gambling games again until he finally becomes comfortable playing gambling. And if they remain oblivious to what they are doing, the addiction will grow and eventually develop into a full-blown gambling addiction.

What you guys are talking about is only possible in sports betting and we should understand that it is not possible for someone to bet a small amount and win a huge amount with that single bet through a sports bet, even if the odds are very high, they can't be higher than 10x or maybe 20x and it is way too difficult to win a bet where the odds are 20x for a team that you are selecting since the odds mostly are set based on the abilities of a team or a player.

What OP is referring to where a person can win a huge amount with just a small amount is only possible through gambling games such as slots or maybe some other game where one can hit a jackpot, and whether or not one can withdraw it depends on the nature of the platform obviously.
It is possible to happen in playing slots, especially if they or we get big luck that can give us big wins. And several people managed to get it, including members of this forum because they got lucky.

For sports betting, it can't happen because the bets we place may not pay off big unless we also place big bets. So what we should pay attention to is the number of bets in each gambling game and leave the results to luck.

Why they call it addiction is simply because one is  not able to stop it.If you are addicted to gambling,you cannot win one time and think you can just stop it like that,you will always have that believe that if you play again,you will still win,they might still allow you to win the second time,but I think the third time might just be a disappointment for you if you play it.You will keep on playing it expecting that you will certainly win,but the winning might not just come again,you will waste your money till you exhaust it.I have seen people win big amount of money through gambling,and they still ended up wasting all of them on gambling,because human being cannot be satisfied with what they have,we always want more.If learning were to be possible,I don't think people would gamble again,but it is not just possible,and that is why they call it addiction.
We cannot win continuously from gambling and there will be times when the casino will let you win but it may be a small victory. Meanwhile, after you have won some money if you are still gambling, it is time for the casino to take all your winnings and include all your remaining balance. That happens to many people who don't see it as a loss but instead deposit more money to try to recover from the loss. The casinos love to see people depositing some money again because it is time for the casinos to take their money again like before. And if people can quit after winning some money, that's to their advantage because they can save themselves from the losses that can come after that. And that's what we have to do if we win some money and don't think about trying to get more wins.

you can't expect all winners to traverse such path. some are overwhelmed by the money on their hands, hence, spending it to whatever they see they feel is good for them. they will only regret once they see the vault is going empty. this is the usual mistake of a lot of people who won the first time in their lives. but if they will smart about, no matter how much winnings they have, small or big, it can possibly change their life for the better.
It's not possible because many people who can win a lot of money still need clarification about how they use the money. They don't think about the future but only use their money for momentary gratification, which they can only get quickly. While their lives are still going on, if they allocate their money wrong, their lives will not be able to change and will probably return to how it was before when they couldn't win a lot of money. That is why they have to really manage the winning money as well as possible so that it can be used for their future.

To get 100 $ per day
Yes you can make $100 daily for $2k budget. but you can also lost your full $2k. just Focus on sure bet like 1.01 to 1.05 Odds. if you stake your $2k in one sure sports match with 1.05 Odd then you will win $100 but Sometimes in the game something strange can happen. many times sure bets are also lost. so in this case you will lost your full $2k and then you have nothing to do without saying fuck
So it's an option for him. He needs a lot of skill to win every match. And don't forget about losing if he is wrong in analyzing because that is what he will get. But if he wins, he can get his money. But to be able to earn $ 100 per day, it will always take work.

Whatever the method, if he couldn't analyze properly, it wouldn't give him victory but would only provide him with defeat. So he better think twice about earning $100 per day from gambling. It's better for him to look for other, more promising ways to get money.

Yes... that's how someone will live in a place where he can be respected. And changing nationality is not a bad decision rather than having to bury the ideals that he dreamed of long ago. And a country losing a talented athlete is a consequence that must be accepted because the government in that country is unable to eradicate corruption.

There are sympathizers of mass organizations who reveal and shout about corruption cases, most of them do not last long not only because there is a strong hand in front of them but they also become silent when they are given some money. Like dogs that bark and when given a bone by their master they will be silent. Corruption is too strong and deep-rooted to be difficult to eradicate.
It is better to change nationality, which can further support him in developing his talent than to stay in his country where he cannot develop his talent. This is not a bad thing to do, and if anyone questions him, he can tell the truth that someone asked him for money when he wanted to join his country's national team. It would become a hot news topic in his country, and the people who cared about him would look for those who had tried to blackmail him.

But we know corruption is deeply rooted in the government, making it difficult to eradicate. And we can only let it be like that because we are sure of their power. And even though they are retired, they are still not touched by the law because their other friends protect them.

That is how it should be but unfortunately this is very rarely the case, and this is because FIFA wants to silence all of those incidents as soon as they happen, the only reason they could not do so here is because we are talking about the player that is probably at the top of soccer at the moment.

However just like this story there should be tens of thousands all over the world, and those players either did not had the courage to come forward or they were bribed on return by FIFA so they never talked about their experiences.
Obviously, those who did that wouldn't let this go public because that could widen the investigation against them and put them in danger. Those players didn't dare to go against people who had more power than those who were just players or ordinary citizens who didn't have any power. But they may have the option of moving to another country that is more supportive of their career so that they can play in another country's national team after changing citizenship. Yes, this story may have been around for a long time, but because of the many obstacles preventing it from being released to the public, people needed to learn more about it. Even the government doesn't give much appreciation to athletes who have contributed a lot to bring their country's name to international matches but just let it go when the athlete has retired from sports.
