2601  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: October 10, 2016, 11:20:10 AM
I do not gamble to much but it always seems that when I do, I take the loss big time.  For example, I have lost over 3 BTC in the BustaBit game online.  It is fun and I like to play but I always get greedy with it.  I have won about 2.2 BTC back, but I lost more than what I have won.  For some odd reason, I keep coming back over and over.  I do not know why I do it, why do you?
i think it can't be our fun thinking that make it again a betting lover at gambling site to gamble . but it is only our greediness that make use very greedy to gamble some btc without hardwork .
Gambling is not good for the poor people because they tend to shift their interest in gambling. At first they will play it for fun and later when they lose already they will not allow to be defeated by a gambling house, what they do is they chase their loses until they accumulated a bigger loses.
Its not recommended to poor people and yeah they will try to chase back their loses that can result to desperate  in money problem..
Thats why many poor people are not riches because of this attitude they are treating gambling as their hope to be a millionaire or to be rich..

If you want to be rich, you need to work for it and constantly hone your skills to give you more opportunities of gaining more money. Gambling is a big no no because it is way too risky due to casino house edge. Come to think of it, if we can really beat the casino, there should be more news of casino that are proclaiming bankruptcy.
2602  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: October 10, 2016, 11:17:14 AM
Not rich actually but I guess i am getting profit in gambling unlike in investing. I am so disappointed because I will always be scam at this program that is why I hate this program than in gambling. Most I love is trading.
Not only you but no one is rich from gambling,all those who commented here no one has become rich with the gambling and even many are in loss overall after gambling so its good to know that you are getting profit in the gambling because theere are not many like you.

He is a lucky man. Maybe he has his own method of winning not relying in bot or script. Because if he is relying on that formula he is totally hating also gambling. And not playing gambling in his whole life. Ha ha. Share your thoughts in gambling man and I will go for it. Test it if I can win also. Thanks!

Bot takes away the emotion part of gambling but exposes a lot to house edge. The reason is that it keeps on playing on and never be able to predict a certain occurrence that the odds is already going on the other side. Hence, it is still the experienced gambler that wins in the end of the day. The once that get rich to gambling are the professional gamblers and the very lucky guy.
2603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: October 10, 2016, 11:13:58 AM
Gambling will never be profitable in the long term, but if you can keep yourself under control you can make a profit. i prefer sport betting

I don't think in the long run you can make a profit even though you keep control on yourself but you can reduce your loses for sure. All types are gambling need a some luck in the long run and without luck one can't win every time so gamble only for fun and invest some other places for earning profits.
But, I do see in long and people are losing their self control. Yes, only in beginning days of gambling people are having some self control, over the time they are becoming lazy and more ignorant. So, usually most of the gamblers are booking losses in long run.

It only means that whether on the beginning or longer period of time of betting, what matters most is the players attitude towards the game. If he becomes lazy and greedy, then for sure, he will lose the game. But if he remains composed and follow the planned strategy and knows when to bet and stop, then he might win in the long run just like the professional gamblers out there.

So is this over? Did he end up losing everything or converting it to another currency?

I think OP is on vacation because of International break all major league are on paused at the moment, I hope on this weekend we will hear something from OP surely because he has very good knowledge about sports betting.

That is good observartion. I also looking forward for OP to update again his bets soon. I am not really following his bets because I have my own local sport game that is betting. I don't usually go international games and games that I am not really updated of the stats and player status of each team. I think that is crucial- knowing the latest info of each team that is competing so that you will have an informed and intelligent decion as to what team to bet on.
2605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do Girls also gamble? on: October 10, 2016, 11:06:01 AM
Many do and tend to get addicted just as easy as males do.
Ive see many high rolling women betting also.
But you can count them, men has big population of gamblers than women, but anyway the topis is just asking Do girls gamble? So with the statement of the many it has already proven that women do gamble.

Yup, they are just few and I sometimes think they won't use a girls name if they are gambling, they could also use a male's name... When it comes to addiction, I think it depends on how they bet, if they bet like a man, then there's a great chance that they will end up addicted,..

That is right, there are girls out there that uses a male name in online gambling sites. The same is true to men that uses girl names and profile picture to lure other male players and scam them. I have many observations in one of the leading online dice game sites here that there are lots of fake girl profiles and asking tips and even scam other players especially male players.
2606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling. on: October 10, 2016, 11:03:28 AM
Hello guys I am addicted to gambling.How can I quit this?

It's hard dude. I suggest you go to gamblers anonymous to seek professional help. I've seen my friends do it and it works.
Before you seek help from the professional you should tell your friends and family first, in that way you will no longer spend anymore and for sure you family will help you as you are important to them. Just be honest to have a great result and you can quit in gambling.

Family will always be the last frontier in this lifetime. No matter how bad you are and many wrongdoings you have made, the very person that will first forgive you is your family. That is why when we have big problems that we are facing, like gambling addiction in this case, we should go and talk to it to our loved ones and they will gladly help you in the process.
2607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: October 10, 2016, 10:58:45 AM
Gambling is never fix my life, it's make my life become worse and wreck my life so bad. I already lose so much money on gambling. I hope all my money that i lose on gambling can return.

That's normal, gambling works like that, it will just get all the money that you fund in your bankroll. I think you should not expect to win back what was gone in gambling, that would just double your burden and probably would just cause another problem.
which needed to make more attention because since you already got lost with your money you will make more moves to regain loses ending it up to make more loses and started to collapsed your finances and wrecked your life.

It is always a generally accepted advice when in terms to gambling that, never ever chase your loses. Take a breath and play again next time because when you chase your loses, there is a big chances that you will get wreck because the house edge is already currently working against you at the moment.
2608  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: October 10, 2016, 10:56:40 AM
Martingale and all in, so i am broke now, damn I can't controll myself when i lost.
Martingale sucks dude so dont ever use that strategy. No matter how low your base bet is or how much balance you have. In the end you will lose all your capital. And I think only few are using that.

Everybody have same experience with martingale because it suck in long run and broke for sure, I am pretty sure martingale is worse strategy to play luck based games because the house is more smart and have more bigger bankroll to save it from the players.
reality speak by itself., you say it well indeed., bank have more big capital knowledgeable system and many other things to avoid them to lose and besides this old tricks can just give you short term wins but still eaten you alive in the long run.

No matter what strategy of betting in the world that you are using, you will still gonna lose in the end of you just keep on playing it like forever. We should always remember that there is casino house edge and it will really work against us no matter what. It will come in an instance that we typically never anticipated and we get upset when it hits us.
2609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: October 10, 2016, 10:52:28 AM
best idea, i think, is to hold on that 1 bitcoin and wait for the price to go up.
if you don't want to take any risk then yeaa better to holding forever.
but we are talking about taking risk here and choosing between gamble or invest.
and of course people who love to play a game and making money also taking high risk will choose to gamble , but the safest between them is investing.
But holding bitcoin itself must be a type of investing. Because, he had invested his money/hard work into bitcoin and now holding one of the best investment of our generation. Instead of taking risk holding bitcoin must be highly clever way of getting easy benefits.

Both gambling and investing might not guarantee for your capitals to be intact always. You may get profits as well as  losses. The profit/loss of ratio may vary based on your luck/skill against gambling and investments.
Yes comparing to gambling, investing will have less risk also holding bitcoin itself an investment type, we need not to go for another one if you do not want to multiply our bitcoins. Holding bitcoin will not guarantee for growing number of bitcoins, we will be holding. Holding will fetch high profits in future but investing will get more bitcoins without any long waiting.

This is true that other forms of investing is less risky than gambling. The reason is that, casino are designed to win while in investing, the moment the company you are investing with grows (which they try hard to achieve), your investment will also grow. The company will do everything to make it successful with the leverage they are getting from the money that you have invested to them.
2610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Gambling is Fun? on: October 10, 2016, 10:49:52 AM
As i think gambling is really sad but for them gambling is really fun are making fun when you are loosing money from any gambling website? i think not gambling is all about profit and full of entertainment if you could just drop by and donate bitcoin or money from the owner then nice job you've done a very good job.

It is right, we can say that sometime gambling is fun for us and sometime gambling give us sad moment, because of losing amount, but when we win that 100% gambling give us fun and entertainment. Gambling is just like life sometime it give us full of fun moment and sometime it give us lose. 

Gambling really gives a lot of mixed emotions. The thrill and excitement is there.. That is the reason why casino create some design of games to be as attractive as possible to get the attention of the gamblers (this is true to most of the slot games) That is also the reason why casino are getting more richer because people tend to look at gambling as very fun even though they are losing money already.
2611  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: October 10, 2016, 10:41:56 AM
One of the easiest is to use the faucet. Although it is little but you can bet with it so that at the end of the day, you will not have to loss anything and you have your little bit of fun. As long as you never lose anything, i already feel that you already have profit from the experience.

Who said you're not losing anything if you use faucet? You're actually losing your time and time is equal to money if you utilise it correctly. So if you play with faucet money first thing is it very little amount so you may not get even fun and lose your time. I suggest if you want a fun then use small amount to gamble and enjoy the games.

yeah faucet takes a long time for you to have earnings and most people, in my thinking, find it a bit boring. the thing is that when you talk about gambling, you really can think that there will be constant earnings there because even if we all agree that you can easily get money from gambling, the chance of you losing is more likely. so even if you profit in a way, it also very easy for you to lose profit

That is so true that in gambling even though it is very easy to earn money from your bets, it is more likely that you will lose all of that money in the end. The reason behind that is what we called the casino house edge. It is setup so that casino will not get bankrupt and will eventually earn at least the house edge percentage they setup at the end of the day.
2612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: October 10, 2016, 10:38:13 AM
I also feel very difficult to leave the gambling we already addiction. but still no way to leave the gambling. you can do a new hobby more interesting so that you will forget gambling

If you have nothing to do and just gamble all day long, then it will really be hard for you to leave that gambling addiction because your attention and focus are still at gambling - you have no diversions. It is really better to go outside and socialize with people and maybe do some volunteer work for charity and that way, you will get to meet new friends and enjoy life outdoor.
2613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: October 10, 2016, 10:36:02 AM
It is not important if you are rich or poor when you gamble near me more watchable thing is the purpose for what someone is gambling. If I say rich people do more gamble than poor will not be too much. Some people with money use their money to get profit while poor try to become rich. I was still gambling to make more money with already existed money.
Yes you are right, gambling is a disease that is difficult to overcome. no matter you are rich or poor if you had known gambling you will still do it, in every moment.
Gambling was never a disease, we have to understand that it is just a game we can play to have fun, although there is a money involve that we can see as a reward but we should not be trap by it and instead we should focus on the fun that we can get in gambling, rich people has more risk if they cannot manage gambling properly.
and that is there advantage they now or most of them knows the doff between having fun and being addicted thats why instead of busting their money they tend to just allow small amount and move away after its all done.

That is right. When the rich obtain the richness through wise decisions, I don't think so that the rich will let his/her money to be at risk of losing all in gambling. They know enough that gambling is very risky because of the house edge it has. Therefore, they only play money that they can afford to lose and winning for profit is not their gameplay -they gamble just for fun!
2614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: October 10, 2016, 10:27:19 AM
Why is someone get addicted to gambling once he gamble ?
The gambit is able to influence people , especially beginners . Because when they won their first gambling return them back because they enjoy them . Until they not realizing it becomes entangled in gambling and they keep on gambling for they want to win. So many people can control their self to go in gambling.
You are spot on, when I was also new I used to gamble a lot and I for some reason was winning also lol.
But after 1 month I felt like gambling all the day no matter if its dice or sports, I could not resist myself from betting on a live sports and all, finally I am away with this addiction thanks to my determination.

I can relate to this. In the advent of technology and bitcoin where we can easily create and fund an online casino account in matter of minutes, people tend to get addicted to gambling because it can be done very easy and fast. I for one, was playing dice almost 12 hours a day before but I get rid of that habit anymore and focus on the most important things in life.
2615  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: October 10, 2016, 10:17:47 AM
I've never done gambling before but I think the reason of the most people why they are gambling is because they want to make a big profit from it by they are always ended up losers, they win in the first round maybe but the second is a history. Others are also doing gambling just for fun because they don't know what to do with their money anymore that is why they are risking it on gambling. They don't care even if they lost or win, what matters to them is they have things to do for pastime.

You are lucky who is still no involving into this job because gambling is really risky as you are saying above it always ended with losing money to the house, that is true I always play just for profit but winning something from betting is fun there for me.

That is correct. When you see for yourself that the strategy of betting that you carefully planned and created makes you win more than you lose. There is really that kind of strategies that make the odds in your favor. However, there is no absolute winner strategy because of the house edge. This way, you should be disciplined and clever enough as to when to stop when you are winning.
2616  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 09, 2016, 02:50:30 AM
Are you inspired by those bitcoin millionaires? Are you thinking of filing a resignation letter on your day job (if you have any) and focus on bitcoin instead?

Me? I do have a day job and I consider bitcoin as my side job. I don't want to lose that another source of income just because bitcoin is awesome.

I will find a way to earn more from bitcoin, I will quit my day job.
But now I think it's really riscky for me.
that's indeed very risky especially if you don't experienced on bitcoin,don't have any business and you just quitting your job for the sake of bitcoin and trying with only confidence and don't thinking about it twice,there's no guarantee you can make bitcoin and fulfill your daily needs though
This, but I will also add that if you quit your job you don’t know when you will get another one and what pay you will get, in my country if you lose your job, you will need to look for months to find a new one.

That's true same is the scenario in my country, first  of all its very hard to find job and if you get a job then you need to compromise in salary and if you quit that job and  there is gap in your carrier then no new company will entertain you.
Yeah, it is a shame that things are like that but I cannot change it and things are even worst as you get older because no one wants to hire you because of your age.

Yeah every company prefers to hire fresh blood who are more energetic and hard working and it will be really difficult for you to find a job at an elder age and even if you get the job you won't work with the same energy.

That the sad truth, companies prefers young professionals to hire than older ones but there are really instances that the older ones with high experiences in relation to the position the latter is applying will be hired preferably than the young one that has less to no experience at all. If I am the company hiring, I will not focus on the age or experiences, I'll focus on the attitude of the applicant.
2617  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: October 06, 2016, 12:28:10 PM
If you have ever experienced a win with gambling then you are going to think that it is possible to win money with gambling and you will try it again.
You then want to prove your self that you are going to win again and that is why people keep coming back.
it's happened everytime, someone so proud and confident to gamble after get an easy win for easy money. makes them to think do it time after time but didn't work. they would do it like a circle , try to gamble for fun > won it > but losing back > losing more money > bet more > and more > regret it and try to gamble again and so on.

Gambling is the easiest to thing to do in order to get some money back. So for people who has been working very hard and didnt earn a lot, this way of earning can be very attractive. That got them hooked.

This makes sense. People that have quite a few monthly earnings tend to easily gamble hoping that they will earn more than they are capable of earning. They have this thinking that there is really nothing much to lose since they are in dire situation already. But, this should not be the case because gambling is design to mak ethe casino win due to house edge - by this, you have no big guarantee that you will gonna win.
2618  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I quit trading on: October 04, 2016, 02:27:43 PM
It's everyone decision to trade or quit trading, personally when i have free time i try to trade a bit if i think that i can make a little profit, the price of bitcoin is increasing so maybe this is a good chance to trade on upcoming halving time.

I also trade a bit in my freetime currently still just practicing trying to grasp a feeling for it analyzing the market prices and their behaviour etc.
I think in time I'll get better and do it more serious though there's alot of money to be made in trading.
If you are serious enough and being more dedicated for learning trading, then you will get chances to develop your trading skills. Studying different strategies and technical analysis will help any person to become very good trader. Dedication and hard work will always pay, so becoming trader is highly possible on our own heartfelt will.

Correct. Trading is a skill. Trading is a very old way of commerce and in the advent of technology nowadays, it makes trading very convenient and can be done in the comfort of your home. With this, if you really want to take advantage and earn, you need to study the trend and how market works. One of my ways of earning with trading cryptocurrencies is looking for potential pump and dump and I capitalize on it. To be honest, that is my primary strategy. However, pumping and dumping just not happen all the time, that is why we need also to figure out other strategies to earn still - that is where hard work and studying and honing your trading skills comes to play.
2619  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: October 04, 2016, 02:22:52 PM
Trading is one of the biggest problem of the bitcoin lots of people are making money with it becuase they know what they are doing and some other dont know and only losing lots of money.
yes all in accordance with the knowledge that we are good at. whereas trading is a lucrative job. we just have to have precision in the account for the price of coin. when those prices rise and when prices declined coin. austerity is a major step for profit.

That's why we are calling that trading is a unpredictable job, as most of the people think that trading is a way to earn a lot of money, actually i want to explain about it, that trading is a good source of income only for those persons who know about trading very well, and have a lot of skills to make money, otherwise trading is not suitable for everyone.
True, trading only for those people who did understand the deeper trade. Not just anyone can succeed in trading, so it must be able to learn the trade properly. Revenue from trading also unpredictable because certainly people have several times lost in the trade.

In trading, if someone wins, the other guy is losing. It is just like a transfer of money to the other. That is why, you need to be really skilled in predicting how people reacting on let us say a certain coin of that particular period of time. When you see that people are afraid, doubtful, and uncertain chances are, the price of certain coin will go down, that is the best time to buy one and when people are getting greedy, now is your turn to sell it.
2620  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: did you put all your money into bitcoin? on: October 04, 2016, 02:18:31 PM
I didn't put all my money into bitcoin cause that would be crazy I need my fiat to pay for bills and groceries and what now but with bitcoin I can't do this.
If I swap back bitcoin I lose alot of money for fees etc so I don't put all my money into bitcoin yet until I can pay everything.

I find it crazy also if you put all of your money to bitcoin unless your life revolves only to online stuff. But this is not always the case. There are things that need fiat money and there are things that are best use with bitcoin. That is why it is wise then to allocate your money into a diversified manner - some percentage for bitcoin, fiat investment, fiat bills, and the like.
