Game for those who want to do it just for the sake of entertaining themselves and nothing.
Investment for them who expect something (profits) out of it and put in something for it, whether the outcome is profit or loss.
Business for them (bookies) who come up with gambling places/sites/ways, and allow their users to gamble there and make profits on their users' losses.

What did you try to say? Most people gamble because of greed, greed of making "fast money with little investment".
What would you call making quick money with least investment? Won't it be greed of an honest hardworking person?
Those, who don't bother about their lost money in gambling, gamble a lot and get addicted as well as lose their entire lives' capital savings.

I make the least bets when it comes to Basketball sport, and those too only on spreads because chances of loss are less.
Minnesota Timberwolves have been playing very acute winning all their matches one by one, but I think that the spread is not much, so I will go with Indiana Pacers +3.5 as I believe that this time again, Timberwolves will win with a closely spread.

It depends upon the speed of your internet, it took me a whole day to download the complete blockchain but I am talking about the time when it used to be 20 GB, but currently it is too much to be downloaded and I have been using Core since then, so no problems till now. But light wallets are fine if you don't want to download it completely and make your hard disk go populous.

I usually play during day times and afternoons when I get to see most available matches in Tennis.
I use sportsbet as it allows US players too as well as give some of the best odds there, and we get a few more types of bets that we only get on fiat-based gambling sportsbooks.

Bitcoin has a huge impact on everyone's lives who had been having it, same is with me.
Bitcoin plays a major part in helping me to manage my expenses with the extra income I make through my signature campaign as well as my gambling techniques. I spend Bitcoins at my place with such pride that the ones who don't know about it, come and ask me what is this all about, and I share everything with them and get paid to teach about Bitcoins to them.

I think that the best option will definitely be converting bitcoins to another altcoin which rises against it, because something arose against such an established currency would definitely be consisting something special that investors and others might be trusting it based on. However, I know that any such Bitcoin disaster is never going to happen.

It is not requisite that everything is based on luck alone. Luck part matters a lot, but people who don't understand anything should not think of touching it. I mean if you are not good at dice, don't play it when you know that you are better at poker. Same applies to sports betting as well, if you don't know basketball, don't try to be over-smart by betting on intuitions, but you should concentrate on sports that you know well and bet on the same, as here, luck factor is not needed much because you will have analysis as well as knowledge of it.

Thinking of gambling as a way of retiring early by making too much money out of it, is itself one of the worst purposes someone would gamble for.
I would never take such risks in gambling that would ruin everything for me as well as my family. We don't need to quit it, seriously. But we need to control ourselves from gambling too much.

I bet that you will never find any "working strategy" that would give you continuous profits over long time with least losses in a dice game. Come on mate, those sites are not there to just throw away and distribute their coins amongst the users, but obviously want your hard-earned coins. Never expect that you will win the longest against their "cutting-edge" house-edge strategy, even if it's the lowest.

I am seeing many threads asking the very same question repeatedly. Thus, I think that they should watch those threads before asking it again, so they won't be called "spammers".
I would just like to reply with an answer to your question, OP, to remain on-topic here. Yes, I have gambled my money in a few games, esp. sports betting. I have made some ridiculous bets on Tennis matches which I have even won, some bets that no one can even think of. My experience seems far better off others who scream a lot about their losses mostly just because they bet without understanding the basics of that sport.

I am a Tennis player, and I love betting in Tennis sport because I understand each and every aspect of this sport and love to watch all the matches as well as predict the most surprising results that make me a great side income that helps me fulfill some of my family's wishes with ease.

OP, if you are sure about your winning chances and have complete analysis of your sport, then I think there is nothing that can stop you from winning and making higher profits. But even in basketball, I am seeing surprising results just as I see in Tennis, even the best teams are losing against underdog opponents, so be very confident before moving ahead when you follow martingale, because you lose more if you lose constant, and only win the first bet even after 10 losses and 11th win.

Tsonga became hazy in his confidence when he saw Wawrinka giving a hard fight to him, even the second set was won by Wawrinka which increased his chances of winning, must have made Tsonga think like he is out. Confidence level matters a lot in Tennis because when you start losing your sets, you might make a mindset that you may lose which should never happen. But don't fall for Raonic as Nadal won't let him win this one.

I never said that we need to have something "guaranteed" in order to consider it a job.
And yes, I would absolutely not pay anyone if he/she does the job in wrong way or without any efforts and just for the sake of payment.
You asked that he worked for a reward or not? Ask it yourself, what would be your answer?

I am talking about the mining hardwares' prices which grew up all of a sudden after halving, that's just because the rewards halved and difficulty grew which was radical as expected, but these mining companies are still not providing such higher hashes against the current rewards and that's what I compared here.

Those numbers still look moderate if we compare them with the growth in prices all of a sudden.
This is just the beginning of a new era in mining, we are possibly heading towards a considerable amount of high-quality mining where it will be impossible for an average miner to even think of it.

Signature campaigns cannot be considered as the major source for earning BTC because they are not jobs, but rewards.
You should understand that joining them still does not guarantee that you will get paid unless you fulfill their requirements, with that said, they should be done as a way of contribution and should not be made just to earn some coins.

Did you really reach 1.77 BTC in no time trading with just 0.033 BTC?
How can it be possible? Can you share your trading methods to everyone, even if you would like to charge for them?
But they should be vouched by some highly trusted members here, maybe then you could also get a big loan to try your luck back.

You seem to have your money hedged in different conditions which is great, considering the players' upsetting performances during the tourney.
I still find Dimitrov struggling against Istomin because underdogs are trying hard to become the upcoming stars of the game.
I have also set a bet on Istomin and I hope I will win this.
