Gambling is so addicting because its a way of earning money on a fast way and you want to try it till you will win something.
After you have won you want to do it again and again to earn money but this is of course not gonna happen it only will be enjoyable.

For people who thinks it's a way of earning fast money it will lead them to loosing big amount instead. If you treat it like this then you won't gonna get any profit at all, it will just make you chasing your losses. Greed is the most common causes on why many gamblers get addicted and loosing big amount money.
Gambling is addicting because there are many people thinking that they can earn a lot of money with gambling which that is actually not true.
And that have to change also because they need to realize that they must do it for fun and not for money because you have to be lucky to win some profit.
It's true, it depends on the people who gamble anyway, if that person is doing some irresponsible gambling then most likely he will be addicted. Gambling if fun actually and it was really designed for the purpose of entertainment, therefore we should treat it the way it should be.
2602  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: May 20, 2016, 02:43:17 AM
Gambling can to both for you and as you can see it can change your life into something positive or negative. But it is obvious that the chance is bigger that it is going to wreck your life you keep wasting money and keep losing.

yes but most gambling will destroy a someone's life, because the adverse effects are so great and did not have a positive value.
won only a moment and then lost continuously
That is the beauty of gambling if you accepted gambling as an entertainment, losing is already expected as the odds does not favor on us. If you will focus on doing it regularly for the sole intention of getting profit then this is not a good avenue for your purpose at it would really wreck your life.
2603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Simple NBA Playoffs Betting on: May 20, 2016, 02:35:16 AM
Cavaliers has dominated the toronto raptors, I am really right with my prediction in this series. This is not an exciting series as also other people has expected. I am seeing already a sweep if the toronto will not improve their play. They were dominated in the rebounding and that is one of the key why cavs roll.
Yeah the Cavaliers are going to beat Toronto without a problem, the Cavs will not play a serious game until they are in the NBA finals. They are just way better then the rest of the eastern conference.

The Cavs seem to be just having fun in their games, they're more relaxed which is a good sign for their fans and bad for the rest of the teams in the NBA.
I think this is the easiest series for the Cavs so far, the Toronto Raptors has simply cannot match the cavaliers at all ends of the floor. That is why I said this is a boring game cause you already know who will win in the series. The way I see it, this is sweep by Cavs.

Like u said u started from fun. All u need to do is to find another fun. Focus on something else that suits u, if u don't have u should search for some hobbies to occupy your mind.
When you are addicted to something it is pretty hard to stop with it because it has become normal to your and your daily life. That is why you have to find a other hobby, something that is going to keep you busy and will take your thought of gambling.
yes I agree it could be a good way, or better you find a job that can make a lot of money. so you will not go back to gambling.
If you really want to stay away with gambling you need to focus yourself busy on doing things that would give you benefits, making yourself busy with doing productive things will make you forget about gambling but never ever try to gamble again as you are vulnerable when it comes to gambling. You need to quit for good.
2605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: May 19, 2016, 09:10:30 AM
I also assume that it is true that everyone loses in the long run. You might get lucky a few times but if you keep playing, you will eventually lose.

Of course, that is the power of probability. It has been designed so that you will always be in the disadvantage.
In the most cases people are losing indeed in gambling and that is because the chance of winning in gambling is really hard and you need to be really lucky if you win some profit.
And people gamble and gamble until they become poor and that is bad because they dont realize it.
That is true, if you are really into gambling and you think you can earn from it, then you have to think twice as many have already tried it but they all lose in the end. You need to be extremely good in order to make gambling as a source of living.
2606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2016 Play-Off Discussion on: May 19, 2016, 08:55:54 AM
Its a must win for the warriors as losing twice away from home for the first 2 games of the series against okc is dangerous so they did the right thing. It seems the series will reach game 7 as the games are being played with runs.
If the series will reach to game 7, warriors will be favored to win in the last game as they are playing at home. I think it is already a win for the warriors as you can see how the crowd supported them so much. However, if OKC will win the next 2 games at home, OKC will be the winner in the series.
2607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Bitcoin? on: May 19, 2016, 08:52:11 AM
I've made quite some posts and read even more threads. Which made me think about the combination of Bitcoin and Gambling.

Is it ok to gamble with bitcoin? Last year we've seen a lot of scams and 'hacks'. Fact is that most of them are either made up by the devs or done by scammers whom use bitcoin's anonimity.

Pro
Let's be honest, Gambling is fun, but Bitcoin it is also very easy?

Con
Look at some dice sites, cloud mining sites that ust dissapeared with consumers money.

Since it is about money I am interested in your opintion, Is the combination of gambling and Bitcoin good?
i'm join for Pro side,yes gambling is fun,bitcoin is very easy to use for gambling,i think that Con no sense,anything could happen in bitcoin world,stole bitcoiin and scamming can do by every site,not just gambling and investement,people also can do it,so why should wondering and worry about it.
Only bitcoins gives us the comfort in gambling, giving the opportunity to gamble online at the comfort of our own home is an awesome experience. In additions, the charges of online transactions is really low or even close to none.

Truly bitcoin has given the ease in the process of gambling. I have seen various countries blocking gambling websites, but with the use of bitcoin those issues have been overcome. so without doubt bitcoin is the keyfactor for successive online gambling.
Since I discover bitcoin in gambling, I already use it regularly. It gives me an ease to transfer my funds to the gambling site and withdraw my winning in our local exchange site. The good thing I like with it is the charges that is so low which I cannot experience when using bank to bank wire transfer.
2608  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: May 19, 2016, 08:50:18 AM
I think if anybody save money it will not increase but if invest those money to proper way it will increase. So invest it to bitcoin online you will be gainer and rich soon   Smiley .
Saving is bad if you save your money in the bank because it can be affected with inflation, the best way to do it both saving and investment is putting your money in bitcoin wallet. You will not encounter problem because you can still withdraw it 24/7 and with some addition of interest due to the increasing price of bitcoins.
2609  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: May 19, 2016, 08:43:06 AM
I don't think trading bitcoin currently is that profitable so that everyone could just quit their jobs and trade bitcoin, and get a large profit from it. It is also pretty volatile, there is no guaranteed profits.

So no, I don't think I'm going to quit my job just yet. But in the future, I might.

yes you are right, trade bitcoin hard to get great benefits, especially you must have a large capital, and also bitcoin price movement is very slow . but if you trade altcoins, you can get great benefits, even if you can get a huge profit, I am sure you will take the decision to quit your job.

I agree with you, but still the possibility of earning higher is high if you are going to monitor your coins daily but the sad thing is bitcoin won't guarantee you the benefits that you can get with your daily job. But still, if you are already on retirement it is fine.
The thing is only those who risk big can only earn big, being a workers or employee with our day job, we are not risking that big that is why we are just earning a little income, just enough to sustain our daily expenses in life, while if you want a comfortable life that you hold your time, investment is the answer.
2610  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best Investments on: May 19, 2016, 08:39:59 AM
Has anyone tried to invest in Satoshi dice or another dice site like that?

I like the idea to invest in a dice site and become the house.

You only lose %1 or smth from your investment if the player wins his/her bet. While it is near impossible to clear out the house i think i may give it a try.

can you tell me how to invest in dice site? i like this idea too. and can you tell me what is profit %? and list of dice sites or other gambling sites where i can make investment.

thanks a lot

For example, you can invest in sites like Betking.io and Just-dice.com.

It is basically gambling, but with a negative house edge. The sites are pretty trusted, but there is still risks involved. Be prepared to be in for the long term, because in the short term there might be a lucky whale that wins thousands of dollars.

There is no guaranteed profit, so make sure you can afford to invest.
Gambling and investing are all the same, it involves risk and we know that if the risk is high the reward is also high. Investing is better than gambling alone, by investing we can maximize our investment even in a short period of time, but we just need to be responsible evaluating the available sites online and invest only on the trusted one.
2611  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: May 19, 2016, 08:19:23 AM
How to play gambling in a smart way? Don't be the one who gamble, but become the owner.
House always win the end and most gamblers will lose anyway Roll Eyes
dont be one who gamble? lol,that's correct Grin OP should know that gambling with smart way is not gambling,becuase smart people will not play gambling,but they doing hard work with their financial skill,that what i thought Cheesy
Yeah your right gambling is not for smart people they are using their smart for other activities..
But i think op is talking about a ways or strategy how to make a profit with your capital..
Honestly there's no smart way or strategy that you can make a profit its always depends in our luck satisfaction and being greediness..
Gambling is for exceptionally smart people, only that kind of people can make a living in gambling. But before you become that one, you need to study hard and learn a lot from your experience in gambling. Do not do the same mistakes over and over again as the real smart people learn from their mistakes.
2612  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: May 19, 2016, 08:10:09 AM
Better to invest once you have enough savings to serve as buffer if and when an emergency arises. Putting all your money in investments might not be good if one day you need to withdraw and you are still not earning from profits from it. The time it takes to withdraw money from mutual funds / stocks usually takes 3 banking days.

That is a good advise, that before investing you must have a good record of your savings. And if you think your savings is enough, then you could
startup a business and after that if the return of investment is fast. You could start another investment again.
Investing is risky because you need to manage it well in order for that to be successful, I am even also planning of investing in real business but I don't have that required capital yet, as of now while I am an employee I set aside some portion of my salary for future investment. I also plan to invest in bitcoin as it is affordable to invest and it can also be a form of savings.
2613  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: May 19, 2016, 08:08:00 AM
Governments and banks aren't some mysterious thingies from another Universe. They are controlled by a relatively small group of people. The same fate awaits Bitcoin if it ever grows into a thingie of that scale. There is no financial freedom for everyone, since it is only possible as long as there is financial slavery, i.e. freedom of some people at the expense of others...

All animals are equal, but some animals are definitely more equal than others

Wow! that was deep, I almost cannot comprehend it. Anyway, I know that there is a monopoly in our economy because our government are corrupt, they just serve the public by name but they actually do it for their personal interest. Just like they say that there is not permanent friends in politics by only personal interest. In bitcoin, I believe it is not corrupt, the price appreciation of bitcoin are driven by the majority of holders and not only by the whales.

Bitcoin is a technology, it can be defective, but not corrupt. People are. And they will remain so, and even more so are those who reach for power. More money means more power. So we are back where we started at, whether it is Bitcoin or not...

I think you can't get rid of corruption be creating perfect money (not necessarily Bitcoin)
Apparently, we are in the technology world now, if we cannot adopt on it then we will be leave behind. Most of the people nowadays are already educated on how to use internet, in the future people want to transact fast and safe and that is why bitcoin is rising because they see some value on it.
2614  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin worth to you or not... on: May 19, 2016, 07:59:19 AM
worthy it or not we still be using it. how to use them can be seen proper or not, whether you're using bitcoin with worthy? I guess I really use them appropriately, because I made some purposes bitcoin help me, and it was really successful. this time I always rely on bitcoin, so worthy it or not, I'm still going to look for it, because it really makes my life changed

Its really worth to hold bitcoin in our wallet and it is helping us in earning extra money from it which can be worth more in future.

Hoping that it will be worth more something is a good reason to hold, but that should not be the only reason in my opinion. In trading those holders are called the weak hands. More people should believe in the protocol, bitcoin deserves that.

Of course the technology that powers Bitcoin is a very important aspect, but the majority of the people don't think about that. Their focus is only pointed at making profit and nothing more.

People who believes in technology will believe in bitcoin too, as it is the best technology for future and also giving us an opportunity to earn some extra money.

That's right, those people who know how to use technology well, will believe about bitcoin. But for those people who does use bitcoin only for just
social media things and wasting their times in non sense things won't believe about bitcoin.
They not even thinking about their future.
Using bitcoin will give us a chance to earn money in the internet, in that way we are utilizing our time properly, we belong to the smart users of internet who uses it to take advantage of the opportunity bitcoin is giving to us.
2615  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [PRE-ANN] WAVES. Ultimate crypto-tokens blockchain platform. on: May 18, 2016, 08:50:03 AM
Can anybody tell me the difference between Waves and Colu https://www.colu.co/

Colu is working. They have support from big companies. And they have very good network skills.

Waves is the opposite and there is no proof that it will ever work as propagated.

Colu members having a history of working projects, sasha of projects failed hard.

However, maybe this time its different lol.



Let us not affect our good vibes here ruined by baseless comments. We the believers of this project seen a lot of positives things than the people who criticize the capability of the developer. Anyway, thanks for you comment at least this thread is not one sided.
2616  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to collect BTC ?? on: May 18, 2016, 08:47:39 AM
If you don't have time to spend time on forum then I think you should buy it and its worth to invest your money in bitcoin at a moment to get better results in future.
If I only have enough money to invest then I would probably do it, collecting bitcoins doing no risk job is still hard because you need to devote you time posting in this thread and doing some faucets just to have a considerable amount of bitcoins daily.
2617  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ALL IN!!?? on: May 18, 2016, 08:38:08 AM
i will never go all in for any bets that i make in gambling. it doesn't matter what the game is for me.

maybe if i have a very small amounts like less that one dollar in bitcoin i would go all in because the amount is small.
sometimes all in is a bad decision because it all pure depend of your lucky and if you lost you will be regret your decision and i think you're good because never all in during a gambling and only doing all in for small amount

In gambling it is just all about luck a little skills and knowledge, if you are gambling for the sole profit and you don't mind being entertain, then I would suggest to go "ALL IN", the lesser time you gamble your chances will be better. I understand that the house has a good benefits when gambling in the long run, putting bets using the "ALL IN" method can be very risky.

If I am to choose which gambling type I would bet, I would never do it on online dice as some are rigged, instead I will place my bets on sports, like now that NBA Playoffs is happening, I will be glad to put "ALL IN" at golden state warriors in game 2 as they cannot be 0-2 in the playoffs. I think that is the safest bet now base on my analysis, so if you have a good amount of money you can ride with my.
Definitely, sports gambling is the best especially with basketball since you it will give you a thrill watching the game even you bet all in. In sports you can also research and study for a team you bet on, in that way, you can have a little advantage over the bookmakers, unlike in dice that your money will be gone instantly.
2618  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I invest in bitcoin casinos? on: May 18, 2016, 08:36:18 AM
The person who started this is not active anymore. I dont think he found the good answer or he is just visiting or maybe the referrer turned him down. But I dont see much reason why he would ask that then just leave.  Huh
So this thread should be luck as I previously suggested, it will just be a home for lot of spammers here if this thread will be remain open.
This thread can still be updated and some information can be vaulable for others too.
I do not see to much spam here and I would leave it open.
That's true, we are having a healthy conversation here, we are suggesting the best opinion we have to help anyone in this thread who has the same plan with the OP. Our investment experience was shared and that is the most important because newbies investors don't need to learn new experience from himself but from our expense.
2619  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to go to US$800+ on: May 18, 2016, 08:34:10 AM
800 dollar is a pretty high amount if you ask me and I think its possible to go to such high amounts so long the halving will be good this year.

800 dollar is high now. But after the halving and more people will use the bitcoin, it will be cheaper.
You can never tell, but I can see the halving effect will be good for bitcoin, in the sense that the price will rise and more people will trust the network in doing their daily transactions. I am confident that with this happening today that the price is becoming more stable, major merchants will slowly adopt in the near future and that would give good exposure for the bitcoin in the community.
2620  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: May 18, 2016, 05:15:06 AM
It will continue to rise due to the high demand of the people, as the halving is near people will be buying more bitcoins on a regular basis as they believe about the good new after the halving. With that happening the price will react and due to the high demand.
