2541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is the largest sports bet you have ever placed, and what was the result on: November 18, 2023, 04:14:43 AM
I forgot what the biggest amount of money I had ever placed was. But I have never won even a big win. Only the occasional small win and maybe it will be like that because I don't gamble too often. It doesn't cause me to bet more or less but it keeps me betting the same amount of money and I don't mind using the money. Until now, I still bet but only on matches that I know. It's not good to bet on matches that I don't know because it will only make me choose randomly, and the result might be that I will lose. But if it's just for fun, I still do it sometimes and don't care about the result.
2542  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Math and Gambling on: November 17, 2023, 05:59:30 PM
I'm not good at math, so that may be why I can't win as much as some people. But I guess it's not like that because gambling is not that simple. Maybe there are other things involved in gambling and maybe gambling uses mathematics but we don't know for sure which ones. Or maybe math is used for some gambling games that require skill so if he is very good at math, he might be able to win a lot at that game. Well, maybe you're right. Maybe you are wrong too. But what about luck? That can't be calculated using mathematics, right? We can only wait for luck to come. But mathematics is also used to calculate the percentage probability of winning or losing. But it seems too difficult for me.
2543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: November 17, 2023, 05:40:10 PM
Taking $200 to the casino will make me forget that I need to save that $200, not to use all the money in just one night. It would be a stupid thing for me to do if I did it because all this time, I only gambled small. Spending a few hundred dollars is not worth it for me because I have to allocate a certain amount of funds to many things so it only leaves me with a small amount of money that I can use for gambling. If I could have more money, I could use more money than usual to gamble. But again, that is if I can reduce my expenses but if not, I will not gamble at all and choose to use it to meet my daily needs only. There are still many other days to gamble and of course, I definitely have money to gamble. The important thing is that gambling is for fun and not to make money because that will definitely make you forget to stop gambling.
2544  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I learnt from a crackhead about gambling on: November 17, 2023, 05:14:01 PM
We don't know what will happen to a gambling addict because someone who is addicted to gambling cannot predict what they will do. Maybe it is true that gambling addicts are more dangerous than drug addicts but still, if they are addicted, it will not be good for their health, especially their mental health. His mental condition must be disturbed because all he can think about is doing the things he already does every day and he doesn't want to do anything else. That's why when we feel like we're starting to get addicted, we have to immediately stop ourselves from the activities we've been doing all this time and try to find out how to cure it so that this small addiction doesn't turn into a big one.
2545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: November 17, 2023, 04:41:05 PM
We have to make sure that nothing else can have a bad effect on the children during their childhood. In front of children, if we lose money by gambling and lose money, we sit upset, on the other hand, if we earn money by gambling, we are more cheerful, but it will definitely affect the child. A person who gambles in front of their children may not know how much harm they are unknowingly doing to their children. People who do this should be careful now because years from now when your child asks you about gambling, you will have nothing to answer. Everything has a certain age, it's a different matter if your child becomes interested in gambling on his own when he learns to understand but we need to be careful not to have any negative influence on his development during childhood.
Therefore, as parents, we must be able to position ourselves when we are in front of them. We don't need to show we are gambling because after all, they will probably see, be curious, and ask more questions about what we are playing. Maybe if we play cards, they will ask how to play them and ask to be taught, but what is more worrying is if they see a pile of money on the table while we are gambling. They will see it and will probably imitate what we do because they are curious about our reaction if we win or lose. Maybe they will try gambling with their friends using the money their parents gave them. If they get that pleasure, they will try again another time and will do it more often without the adults or parents knowing.
2546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you bet on when your league is in break? on: November 17, 2023, 04:14:33 PM
If they know a lot about other leagues, they will definitely follow other leagues while waiting for their favorite league to return. This will fill his free time by trying to analyze other leagues and also increase his knowledge even more. He will also have more references that he can use to find more information. But some gamblers don't bet on other leagues because they feel they don't have enough knowledge about other leagues. They tend to choose to rest while waiting for their favorite league to return so they can start looking for information about the next match. But it's better not to bet on leagues we don't know because that will only cause us to lose more often because we don't know anything about the teams in that league.
2547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do you want to play on casinos without KYC requirements? on: November 17, 2023, 03:52:10 PM
I am not some kind of criminal but I believe that no one has the right to look into my pocket without my permission - be it the government or some other organization.
Unfortunately, they do have the right as long as you have the privilege to use all the government-funded projects to make a living and have a license to drive on the road and if you violate what's on their constitution they can order the court to yield everything you had, you are not a land where you don't care about everything you will be liable and made to follow what they instruct.
If you don't want them to snooze on what you have then don't use any of their facilities and their platforms, this is the reality and we are made to comply with it.
Not using a platform that we don't like is the best way and in fact, we have many casinos that still allow us to gamble without needing to do KYC. But to be able to gamble without KYC, we also have to know ourselves and only use a little money, which could make the casino suspicious. Just imagine if there was someone who had just joined for 3 days and then deposited a lot of money, for example, $3000 to gamble. The casino will be suspicious of where he got that much money from, and the casino will confirm this by carrying out KYC because with the money, the gambler might be able to win as much as $100 or more. The casino only follows the procedures given by the regulator and tries to comply so that the casino does not experience any problems.
2548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: November 17, 2023, 03:37:29 PM
Successful gambler means a wise gambler who don't place bet randomly anywhere but utilize his experience and effort to select some specific limited bet to enroll. If a person addicted to gambling and can't help controlling himself, won't be a successful gambler ever cause Gambler with sick mentality never successful as he'll lost his capital for placing bets with unnecessary games. But Successful gambler gamble for earn money, not for fun. So he decide to wait and spend his time, knowledge, skill before invest his capital, what makes him successful
If we can become wise gamblers, it means we have tried to take care of ourselves while we gamble and not gamble excessively and that could mean we have tried to become successful gamblers. But some people say that successful gamblers are gamblers who manage to get very big wins and can retire from gambling forever and enjoy their very large winnings. But we must know that someone successful in getting a big win has the possibility of returning to gambling another day because he wants to repeat getting his big win again. If that happens, he will not be a successful gambler because he will return to gambling and cannot control himself in gambling.
2549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use bitcoin when gambling? on: November 17, 2023, 02:40:05 PM
I don't use bitcoins for gambling because if I lose gambling and if I lose bitcoins because of losing I think more money will be deducted from my account than the amount I will lose gambling. I like to invest in Bitcoin but I don't like to sell or use my investment for any other purpose. Let's say I gambled and lost $100. At the time I gambled and lost $100, Bitcoin was worth $30,000. But after a few days, when the price of Bitcoin will go to 35 thousand dollars, if I calculate 100 dollars, then it will be seen that my loss is more than 100 rupees. This is how I think about Bitcoin, which is why I never gamble with Bitcoin, rather I prefer to gamble with virtual dollars. Since we have alternatives, we should always use alternatives.
Using bitcoin when transaction costs are increasing, like now, makes many people avoid it and prefer to use altcoins or even stablecoins for gambling. This saves more on transaction costs so that they can use more or the same money as before to gamble. And you're telling the truth about preferring to use altcoins or stablecoins over bitcoin. It's better to keep the bitcoins rather than use them for gambling. But I still often use bitcoin for gambling and in times like now, I prefer not to gamble until everything returns to normal. If I wanted to gamble, I would also choose TRX or XRP or USDT because the transaction costs are still low.
2550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have your own casino. on: November 17, 2023, 02:18:22 PM
But the main thing to maintain your customer is you need to be active in terms of technical problem cause once you solve easily and fast then for sure many gamblers will come and play.
That's the most important thing for any business is to keep the customers satisfied so that they don't leave and always use the products and services of this business only and that's a challenging thing to do for any business because it's not that easy to satisfy every customer and there will surely be problems along the way. However, if a business can manage to satisfy the majority of its customers, they will still be on the positive side and the business will stay profitable.

For a casino to do that, they will have to provide the best services, especially customer service should be top-notch, as you said, so that a customer who complains about something should get that issue resolved pretty quickly before they start getting frustrated and leave the platform for another one. Other than that, games, quality and user-friendliness of the platform, and many other small things can matter like the UI of the platform, etc.
The casino owner and casino team will definitely provide the best service to their customers because they understand that if the customers are satisfied, the business will continue to operate and provide even more profits. The casino will also get a good position so that it can become a casino that many members trust and they will spread the link to many social media to help promote the casino. By creating their own casino, casino owners can make more profits, and that means they will earn a lot of money from their casino.

This is what casino owners who have been successful in running their casinos have done. If you want to build your casino, you have to prepare all the plans and also the capital to build the casino because it is a lot of money. That's what makes only a few people able to build a casino because a lot of capital hampers them.
2551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: November 17, 2023, 01:52:02 PM
Gambling with pressure is another aspect of gambling that needs to be considered by most gamblers. When you gamble under pressure, you definitely not gamble rightly, because you definitely not doing it with your right mind so you are prone to making wrong picks and definitely loosing.

If you have a financial need that is pressuring you to gamble nits going to be different when compared to you gambling without any form of pressure, so I do advice if you have any financial need that is pressuring you, gambling shouldn't be a to go place, for that period avoid gambling because you may possibly invest in it hoping to realize funds from it to resolve the issues at hand but sometimes you end up loosing even the little you had.so it's better you gamble when you are u see no pressure and enjoy the fun that comes with gambling.

This is very important to pay attention to because if a person experiences pressure in all gambling activities then he tends not to be able to enjoy every step or method of gambling perfectly because his mind is confused and his emotions are unstable, so he will make a lot of things. a mistake he shouldn't have made.

The advice you give is true, but most people see gambling as a quick way to make money so they don't realize that the consequences of the behavior they carry out are still doubtful and not necessarily profitable in their lives.
It is very difficult to easily know whether someone is experiencing severe financial stress because all they are thinking about is how to improve their financial life quickly. Therefore, gambling is only for entertainment and we do it as much as possible.
There is no doubt that people see gambling as a quick way to make money but also a quick way to lose money if they cannot control themselves. If someone loses, he will experience the pressure of that defeat so he will try to recover from his defeat at all costs. He may try to deposit more money to continue gambling because he is still thinking about recovering his losses. But if he could think clearly that the method he was using would not guarantee to recover his losses, he would not do it and would choose to rest. Maybe he will try another day or even forget the defeat he experienced.

Someone who has gone too far in gambling and can introspect about what he gets from gambling may think that he needs to reduce his gambling activities and will not gamble excessively because he already knows what consequences he will receive. And when he can realize that he has gone too far in gambling, that can make him reduce his gambling activities so he also tries to control his emotions so he doesn't think about recovering his losses. He will try to become a wise gambler and try to correct the mistakes he has made.
2552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Difference between crypto gamblers - regular gamblers on: November 17, 2023, 01:31:51 PM
There is some difference between those who are regular gamblers and those who gamble with cryptocurrency. It is natural that a person involved in cryptocurrency will usually know more than the average gambler when gambling. A common gambler only tries to know about his gambling on a particular site but a cryptocurrency gambler has knowledge about not only the particular gambling site but also about all things crypto related. I have noticed that a normal gambler gambles on low quality gambling sites but a gambler who is involved in crypto currency chooses a very good quality gambling site, I think this is a good aspect for crypto gamblers. There are many children in my area who have learned to play gambling by watching YouTube, that is, at one stage of watching the video, various gambling advertisements come to the fore. Many people in our area play this kind of gambling after seeing such advertisements, even though they do not have a good idea about gambling. But I believe that we gamblers must gamble on many good sites as well as gamble with many strategies that a normal gambler does not.
It seems that crypto gamblers are learning more about finding a trusted crypto casino because they have to find and get a trusted crypto casino so that they can play their gambling in peace. It's different with fiat gamblers who might immediately register themselves on a fiat casino site without trying to find out more information, especially if they get the casino from social media so they immediately trust it. We who are crypto gamblers must first ensure that the crypto casino is safe and trustworthy before we register. And yes, children can look for the casino they want because they can look for the casino from sources they know so they don't have to ask adults. This is what triggers many gambling addiction problems that occur in children.
2553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: November 17, 2023, 01:16:05 PM
I have the believe that success in gambling requires a mixture of luck and skill. This is opposed to some people that believe that gambling is entirely a game of luck and others who believe it is entirely a game of skill.

So I am tempted to inquire if skill is all that is needed to be successful in gambling or luck. Whichever be the option, which of them is the most important factor for gambling success?
Depending on the game you are playing the answer will change, if you are playing a game in which your luck is all what matters, like the lottery, then any skill that you may posses is useless and you can only depend on your luck, however if you are playing a game in which your skill has an influence then the only thing that matters is your skill, and this is because in order to win in those games your skill level should be high enough in order to overcome whatever bad luck may come your way.
Yes, it will depend on what game he is playing. If he understands his type of game is about skill or luck, he can either require skill or luck. But for luck, we will never know when we will get that luck. We can only continue playing and hope that luck will come and give us victory. That is why those who know about sports prefer betting on sports betting because they can use their skills to analyze the matches and have a better chance of winning. But some gamblers do not or rarely bet on sports betting and often play luck-based gambling and these people can accept whatever results they will get at the end of their gambling.
2554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler's family action. on: November 17, 2023, 12:53:01 PM
Family or blood line is like that, isn't it? There is probably no sane family that will let their family members get addicted to bad vices that can destroy their loved ones, of course.
They will do everything they can to get out their family members who are addicted to gambling so that they don't gamble further. His family will not let anyone in his family experience difficulties and will help him to solve his problems.

If people weren't addicted to gambling then people wouldn't worry too much about such common activities. But everyone knows that it is difficult to turn those who become addicted to gambling. Gamblers will not stop their addiction until they exhaust all their financial resources. So those who work as guardians of the family must consider these issues and try to warn in advance. An addicted gambler never thinks of himself as an addict. If he is given a piece of advice, he agrees to accept it for a while but then he does not keep his word. This picture is almost the same for any addicted gambler.
It is indeed difficult to stop his gambling addiction because all he can think about is gambling so it is true that it can cost him all his money. But if any of his family found out and his family didn't want him to get deeper into gambling, they would try to warn him and would even try to pull him out of gambling. There must be a confession from the gambler to be able to open his mind that there is a gambling addiction that must be cured and if it is not done immediately, it will endanger him even more. And after he admits his gambling addiction, his family will look for ways to cure his gambling addiction.
2555  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: November 17, 2023, 12:23:03 PM
It should be started with definition of gambling. Isnt it a process where one person compete against other (gambler/casino) in order to get a prize (money/service). If we search for definition of gambling, nowhere would be written about making money or earning, it will be all about taking a risk. Which makes gambling NOT an instrument to gain sufficient money.
What makes gambling make money is ourselves. We think that playing gambling can make money but actually it doesn't guarantee that we can actually make money. The thing is, we will experience losses that we might not be able to imagine, so if there are still people who want to make money from gambling, they should think again, especially if they have seen what happens to many people who want to make money from gambling. They will see that they have a hard time making that money and lose a lot so we don't need to try. Those who don't have a lot of money and want to gamble to make money should not try it.
2556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Conclusion after losing millions! that games are rigged. on: November 17, 2023, 11:40:25 AM
Indeed don't need to find out, however I'm just asking questions and don't know how online casinos work, but it's true this isn't really important for us to find out, even if there is valid evidence that casinos commit fraud or cheating, there are definitely many parties who will suffer losses and of course there are many parties who will sue the casino.

Yes, that's right and it's very important, that we have to be careful in choosing a casino to carry out gambling activities. There are many fraudulent casinos circulating widely in society, so we have to be smart in looking for a casino that has a good reputations and is definitely user by many peoples.
That is why playing gambling at a trusted casino can give us peace of mind so that we don't think about cheating casinos because trusted casinos will not cheat even though there is still the possibility. We can only gamble calmly and not think about anything other than getting pleasure from gambling so that when we lose, we won't think that the casino is cheating us, so we lose.

And if we see an offer that is too attractive and too good to be true, we won't try it until we find the right reason why we need to try gambling at the casino. We will not force ourselves just to try to gamble at the casino because we already have a trusted casino that we often use for gambling. During this time, we also don't need to think about cheating that the casino might have carried out because our intention to gamble is just to get pleasure from gambling.
2557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: November 17, 2023, 11:22:39 AM
you have to be careful if you want to see other people experiences to use as a benchmark for not making the same mistakes because sometimes your level of gambling is not the same as his or he could be a very reckless gambling addict and I am worried if you use other people experiences as valuable lessons. for you, I am afraid you will actually have curiosity and try it.

for me the best experience is only what you do yourself and other people experiences are just additions.
As long as we can take care of ourselves after learning from other people's experiences, we will be fine and can even avoid mistakes made by that person so that nothing will happen to us because our goal in gambling is just to get pleasure. Even though he is a gambling addict, we can learn from what he experienced so that we don't experience the same thing as him. We also won't experience gambling addiction because we can limit ourselves and control our emotions well.

Yes, other people's experiences can be a lesson for us so that we don't have bad experiences. We can also always be alert and try to be careful when gambling.
2558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dangerous chasing losses on: November 17, 2023, 10:45:33 AM
You've made an important point about the dangerous route of trying to recover losses. This is the "sunk cost fallacy", a typical behavioral trap that is ingrained in our minds. This misconception prevents bettors from putting good money after poor in an attempt to recover losses. They frequently fail to see the long-term risks because of the short-lived thrill of victory

Conversely, you offer wise counsel in resigning while ahead. It's difficult, though, because of the "winner's high," a psychological condition in which an imaginary feeling of invincibility is fueled by previous success. Discipline and a predetermined escape strategy are essential in this situation. It is imperative for gamblers to acknowledge these psychological undertones and act in opposition to their natural tendencies
That is why we do not need to try to recover the losses we have experienced. Besides that, it is difficult to obtain, and we will experience an even bigger loss, and it could exceed the previous loss so that the money we have can be used only to try to recover from the loss. The tendency of gamblers to deposit more money into their gambling accounts after experiencing losses has always been there and this causes them to keep trying to recover their losses. We must not be trapped by our thoughts, which constantly tell us to recover from our losses because we will find it difficult to get the big win.

It would be better if we had a plan to use the winning money that we get rather than trying to get even bigger wins. That will be harder to get because we've already had the big win but we still want the bigger one. And that's where we need to have discipline and an escape strategy so that we can really get out of gambling with big winnings that we can use to build other sources of income so that we don't depend on gambling to make money. That will be much better because we will shift our focus on making money to other places that are more promising for generating income.

They need the balance and the kind of mindset that will keep them away to any form of greed and addiction, chasing your loses most of the time push to lose more, and from that point you may develop bad gambling habits and turn you to become an addicted gambler, better to enjoy if you win some money of when you already lose your initial capital make sure to stop and not to add more money to try recovering back you loses, it's not a good practice, accept your defeats and take as rest to freshen your mindset and recreate a good strategy after.
Stopping gambling after getting a big win is the best thing we can do because by stopping gambling, we can enjoy the winning money and we can also use it for other things, such as creating a new business with the winning money. We will not try to chase another big win so that we can also avoid more losses because once we experience a loss, we will try to recover from that loss so that it will only give us even bigger losses. So we have to be wise with what we have because we have to remember the purpose of our gambling, where we gamble only for fun and not to make money.
2559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: November 17, 2023, 09:59:31 AM
They continue like that, not realizing that they are already rich when counting the money they have lost due to gambling. With the aim of recovering losses it is very unlikely to happen. In fact, if it's like that, in my opinion, they will lose more money because the victory that never gets and uncontrollable emotions make them want to continue to pursue victory or restore the losses they have experienced. people like this are usually people who cannot accept risks so they always gamble continuously. And it's true that you said the sensation of winning will last for a while unlike the sensation of losing which they will certainly feel for a long time.

I think the percentage of wins and losses in gambling will definitely be greater than the percentage of losses. Because in any gambling there is already a bookie who organizes everything and the bookie will also not easily give just any victory to the players. And the victory obtained by them will also not be comparable to the defeat they feel like you said that, many depend on gambling so they make gambling their main income. But of course this is wrong, they should look for work for the main income or open a business, and can imagine the money that has been lost because of gambling, if you think about it, it seems like it can be used to start a business that will certainly be profitable.
If they do not realize that they are already rich because they have won some rounds but do not immediately stop gambling, they will actually lose the opportunity to withdraw their winnings. All the money will only be used to continue gambling. They will also have difficulty if they want to recover from the losses they have just suffered because they will not be able to get big wins easily. They should be aware of when they should stop gambling because by knowing when to stop, they can save their winnings by withdrawing them to their wallet and celebrating. But they probably won't be able to realize it because their greed will grow and tell them to continue gambling. So those who want to build a career in gambling will not be able to achieve it easily because there will be a lot of losses and if they cannot realize this, they will only regret it.

If many people depend on gambling, they will only lose more and more money and instead of recovering their losses, they will experience more losses. They should be able to understand that gambling is not for making money and will not be able to make gambling a career easily. Only a small number of people can build a career in gambling because they have learned what they have to do while gambling. And it is the casinos that will profit from the losing gamblers and gamblers who are trying to be wise should understand that and they do not need to use gambling to make money.

They came up with the idea of requesting to not let the guy gamble within their area to at least limit his gambling which is for his own good. We understand the reason, it's because they care. That's why if this ever happens, as long as the gambler goes back to his family showing regrets and promises that this will never happen again, I know the family will accept the guy and help him get back on his feet.
Yes, that's what families will do if they find that a family member is addicted to gambling or often gambles at casinos in their city. They don't want to see any of their members gambling more and more often, even to the point of spending all their money. That wouldn't be good for him because he could lose all his money, even the money he had in his savings, so his family took strict measures just to protect the person from excessive gambling. This is all for the good of the person so that he can remember that excessive gambling will not give the results he wants, so he should be able to realize his mistake and not gamble again.
