2541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What causes a person to become intensely addicted to gambling? on: July 12, 2019, 08:12:35 PM
actually simple, when you win a gamble, someone wants to come back again for a victory that is bigger than yesterday. if you lose, someone will come back again to take revenge for yesterday's defeat. both sides make people always think of going back to the gambling table, because of their own desires.

In both cases it is the greed for money which causes the person to play gambling again and again even if he lose or win. And this is how a person is addicted to gambling and he never knows about it.
The only way he can leave gambling is that he run out of money and has nothing left to gamble.
2542  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting odds, which do you prefer? on: July 07, 2019, 04:03:50 PM
I would like to hear some of your comments based on your experience here.

Sports betting is one of the favorite games in gambling and I always wanted to experience a long term winning.

Therefore I'd like to get some of your opinion based on your experience, which is odds listed below gives you a better chance of winning?

a) over 2.00 or b) less than 2.00



For sure less than 2.00 will give you more winnings than the odds greater than 2. But this is not how gambling works. You need to change your odds after every game depending upon the result of your previous bet. You cannot just bet on less then 2.0 and think you will be safe. This is not the reality in gambling.
2543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nitrogensports alternative? on: July 07, 2019, 03:52:12 PM
Is there a website like NitrogenSports that has a smaller minimum bet? I'm looking for a sportsbook with the lowest minimum bet. Thanks.

How much minimum bet you are looking for ?  I do not think anything under 0.01 ETH is worth the betting.  I normally bet with minimum 0.05 - 0.1 ETH because I can get good money on winning the bets.

If you look at the fight, don't you think that Messi did not start this fight and he was the one who should not be given the red card  Huh

I really don't get why Messi was given the punishment.
The gif isn't very clear but Messi started the fight by pushing Chile's leader in the back which responded by the chest fight + a punch which was not visible unless you see it in slow motion. I believe both players deserve yellow cards and a hug to relieve tension there... But the referee already took his decision which might influenced the game very much if the score was 0-0!

And who hit the punch ? Messi  Huh

The initial push by Messi was not so harsh and if you see clearly the it was chile player to smashed his chest couple of times and Messi did not responded to it. He was the one who was being hit twice by chile player.

2545  Economy / Exchanges / Re: what are the things to consider when looking for a good exchange? on: July 07, 2019, 12:50:29 PM
While you're looking for good exchanges you need to do some research. In the basis of volume, circulation, security, wide usage and liquidity. Nowadays exchanges are getting frame because of their community fame.
If the have a strong community, they are ready to put their money in the the new IEO whichever coming from that exchanges.
Best exchanges as my knowledge,
Binance
Bitrex
Bitmax
Etherdelta
Cryptopia


I think you are not updated on exchanges. Cryptopia is already closed and they were hacked. People has lost a lot of funds from this exchange. Etherdelta is another shit exchange and I will not recommend it at all.
Even the best exchange Binance was hacked this year, so we should not blindly trust any exchange.
2546  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Crypto Marketet Is Dumping Drastically !! on: July 07, 2019, 11:02:27 AM
Reasons are many. Investors and big whales are more silent. At times exchanges and traders set the price for the day. This follows with other exchanges. At times when hard fork takes place, the main coin value goes down and the new coin value goes up. No demand as the price is so low. Hence, the value is being draped down. 
Big whales are always waiting for a better dip where they could buy more and more coins and as soon as they see demand going downwards, they start speculating the markets to see if they could buy as many coins as possible in a good dip so mostly we can expect a price pump even after the price is in the downtrend.

Investors do always look for a better point to get into so we cant really say that the decreasing demand can extinct the coin.
Decreasing demand never extinct the coin because there always are a lot of peoples at the dip would buy major amount of coins if the demand for those coins is extinct because it gives them the opportunity to buy coins at the cheapest price and holding until they pump up is a good investment strategy used  by majority investors. Markets would always keep on regulating this way.
Yeah, I agree with you. Even with this decreasing demand of crypto the market will not die as there is a lot of investors are waiting for this time to buy, so as you said the best strategy for all investors is waiting until bitcoin will be so cheap to buy.

The question is? what price would be the cheapest price? No one can predict which level would be the best time to enter but the market stabilized with these ranges
which we can really presume that this might be the bottom and accumulating cheaper bitcoins wont really be that easy due to hesitance.

It is impossible for us to predict how depth the prices going to be but we need to grab them when their prices decrease with the little amount of money every time. It is not a good idea to keep all the investment at the same price, nobody has any clue how much depth the altcoin prices going to be.

No body knows the exact lows and highs for bitcoins and altcoins. A few months ago bitcoin was near 3500$ and within 2 months it is now trading at 11500$. Similarly altcoins are also down at the moment and we never know when we see a big movement in altcoins . I am hoping to see 10- 20x increase in each altcoin price in about 3 months.

3rd place for Argentina is the best they could do in this tournament.
Unfortunately, Messi didn't manage to win a trophy with Argentina for another championship. This chest to chest fight was very funny though.

Argentina still manage to hold their lead despite of the fact that Messi was given Red card.
If you look at the fight, don't you think that Messi did not start this fight and he was the one who should not be given the red card  Huh

I really don't get why Messi was given the punishment.

2549  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Blockchain and crypto books for crypto on: July 07, 2019, 10:00:53 AM
The only problem is that there are lots of websites online that would give those things that are written on your books for free on their website, which means that would prefer to search for whatever they need online than buying books for it there are even free ebooks online about cryptocurrency and you can find just anything you want to know about cryptocurrency from them. So it's really difficult to sell any book now. But you can still try your luck. You can put them up on sale on Amazon (it's not a must that you will sell them for crypto) you can sell them for cash and then convert for Bitcoin.

Like currency is changing from fiat to digital, similarly we have a transformation where people prefer to gain knowledge online through google / video instead of book reading. Writing a book on crypto will not be a successful idea in this modern world.
2550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play poker to train trading on: July 07, 2019, 06:21:26 AM
IMHO the biggest lesson from poker is that you can't always win. Sometimes you have to take a small loss to save whatever remains of your investment. That you don't always have to "call".

Poker and crypto trading are two different things and should not be compared. If you want to a be good trading, focus on learning trading and not on Poker.  Smiley

The only thing which is similar and can be learnt in both poker and trading is the patience and controlling emotions. If you are able to overcome your emotions, for sure you can have big success in both poker and crypto trading.
2551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons Crypto Players Skip Casinos with KYC on: July 07, 2019, 06:07:54 AM
if players wanted to make a KYC they would use the traditional online casino. if they choose bitcoin casino it means they don't want to make KYC and prefer to be anonymous.

People uses bitcoins and crypto to be able to remain hidden and anonymous, so why would they do the kyc which would reveal them to the casino owners and the public ( if the kyc information is leaked for the site intentionally or unintentionally).  Also people prefer online casino only to hide their identity and if they have to show themselves, they may prefer physical casino again.
2552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC procedure in online casinos does more good than bad or the other way around? on: July 07, 2019, 04:51:33 AM
It's good for the site, they can prevent people who cheating on ther site by creating multiple accounts. But it's not good for the gambler, their Identity already known and they don't know what will happened with their ID in that gambling site

KYC is an advantage of the gambling site.

A gambling site is secured with a KYC, as they said it to me but as you've said, I don't even know where my information goes. The site knows your information, unless you are serious with your gambling, I think you don't need to send your information to them.

if your serious playing gambling with them then why dont you trust them with your kyc ? you shouldnt only do kyc on a site that you dont trust with  . kyc is an advantage on both gamblers and gambling site owners because if your a player you can get your account fully verefied and that also unlock more rewards for you  . if your verified other gamblers can also trust you and they can make a deal for you inside or outside the gambling place  .

Rewards for KYC? I have never heard that there are some rewards for doing KYC, at least if we are talking about crypto gambling sites. Since we are in crypto gambling world where one of the main advantage is about its anonymity, there is no good reasons for doing KYC imho. I will only do KYC if the site ask me to confirm my withdrawal once I win big, otherwise I wont do KYC for other reasons.

In order to encourage the KYC, the gambling sites can give bonus or freeplays for those who successfully completes the kyc. Although I am not a big fan of kyc but this method of promoting kyc can be effective and many people may consider themselves for kyc just to gain these additional benefits.
Without such benefits, I think no one will be willing to do kyc on gambling sites.
2553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casinos can use AI to get additional edge? on: July 06, 2019, 07:19:34 PM
Not only is the AI going to attempt to guess your moves, it's also way better at calculating the odds than you so yes, it'll definitely put the human player at a disadvantage. Seems like an overkill but I can see them attempting to use this in such a way that it wouldn't be obvious.

thats totally overkill! ripping the money of the gamblers at its best!
should be discreet otherwise, their area will be like a hunted one!

Exactly. I don't know much about probability but it is said that the slots in physical casinos have their chances set so that every now and then one would give a payout, to encourage those in other slots to continue. Of course it's different with card games but if they want it to be realistic, they'd have to throw in a few "errors" in to make the AI realistic.

If people feel they don't have the slightest chance of winning (though to be fair they really don't have much to begin with), they won't play.

AI can be used in order to provide benefits to the gamblers too. It is not that only the gambling casino can take benefit from AI.
By using Artificial intelligence online gambling can be made more interactive and user friendly.
2554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A new kind of scam in telegram using gambling site on: July 06, 2019, 06:58:24 PM
Telegram is home for scammers, so talking about the guy who claimed he owns a gambling site and  blocked you is not new.  Well, the good thing is you didn't fall for his scam. Always use verified gambling sites.

Rightly said. I never play any such games on telegram as many people fraud on that platform. A better approach is not to look for new ways of gambling and stick to the trusted sites. Secondly many people approach you on telegram with different types of offers etc. We should never fall for anything which seems unrealistic.
2555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which is the best place to learn how to play Poker online? on: July 06, 2019, 06:37:39 PM
I had learned poker on PokerStars. Just start playing with play money and take part of the freerolls to earn some $. The also have a own PokerSchool.
Playing with free money will give you a good glimpse on how things are going inside this gambling activities, if you can use to it and you find good potentials from your skills then you can go forward and start to use your real money and try to see if same results will happen.

There is no free money in gambling. If you plan to start playing poker and gambling with faucets etc, then it will just be a waste of time and money as those amounts are really too low to learn or earn anything. Better to invest 10 - 20$ in the beginning and try to see how you play gambling and try to improve yourself with each game.

Congrats to him, but he is definitely an anomaly. Work smart/hard....unless you're in a horrible economy  Cry

It is actually the main reason why most of the lottery bettors are from the lowest department of the society. You are right tho that some of this people have succeeded by being wise in making decisions for their life but others didn't or is not capable of doing it.

That is just how destiny works if it's your time then its your time, I also think this guy was having a lot of good deeds in his life to deserve this kind of blessings.

Maybe there are many people who are too much poor and if they live the routine life, they won't be able to change their fate. The gambling is the only source which can make a very poor person to rich one but it happens only once every 1000 or more.
2557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Copa América 2019 Discussion Thread & Prediction Pool (registration closed) on: July 05, 2019, 03:22:01 PM
The final is going to be very one-sided and I won't be surprised if Brazil wins by a margin of more than 4  goals.
We shall see.
Remember the Paraguay game where most people expected Brazil to just have a comfortable win in regular time but it turned out to be hard for them.

Brazils are hot favorite to win the final against Paraguay but a lot depends on the day performance. If somehow Paraguay gets the lead first, I think it will be then a very thrilling match. Having a 3-0 Brazil win may be not as entertaining as 3-2  brazil win  Smiley
2558  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to understand risk in crypto on: June 30, 2019, 06:05:51 PM
Nice.
Crypto world involves two big main things, profit, and risk.
And how to know the risks, we can learn from ourself experience, others, and also crypto information. So far, we know that the risks of crypto worlds are losing, scammed, and also phishing and more other shitcoins. However, those risks always lead us for the better condition in order to be more aware and careful to avoid the risks.

Profit and Risk are directly proportional to each other. The higher the risk, the higher are the chances of profit. Since bitcoin & crypto are volatile in nature, both profit and risk are high. You can gain quick money and lose all money if you are not careful in crypto and trading.

First of all, I think it will be a great educational video that can explain much for newbies and secondly, this movie can push bitcoin's and altcoin's price reach the sky (don't perceive it literally). What do u think?

the source: https://thebitplex.com/?p=198

Yes , this documentary will be worth to watch. Can anyone tell when exactly this will be online to watch. I do not have subscription to Netflix.
Maybe someone will reupload it to youtube once it's On Air. Smiley
2560  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Iran seizes 1,000 Bitcoin mining machines after power spike on: June 30, 2019, 04:32:34 PM
Iran has less buyers of it's oil so oil is dirt cheap there. They produce electricity from petroleum products and bitcoin and crypto are not only a source of income but also a way to avoid embargo as embargo are monitored through bank transactions. Iran should further encourage it's citizen to use crypto than to restrict it.

Keeping aside the political situation of the country, Iran has been sanctioned by the US and thier economy is not is good position. I don't know what can be the reason to stop people from mining the crypto but they should realize that if they want to survive, the only chance is to adopt bitcoins and boycott the US dollar.
