301  Economy / Gambling / Re: Are there any good betting websites for the upcoming Euro on: June 09, 2024, 09:55:02 AM
Guys can you recommend any good betting websites that are legal and benefeciary?
Think no further, my friend, just sign up at Stake.com and you will enjoy all the benefits you can dream of in sports betting, more than all other sportsbooks that can be suggested to you here and even more than what you think is possible. What you "are preparing for" is what Stake "had prepared for." You can see the difference between the two, so don't take it lightly.

According to what I've seen so far on the platform, your Euro 2024 expectations should certainly be met by the preparedness of Stake.com, and I am sure you will not regret your choice.

Nonetheless, read the terms and conditions to be certain of terms of service and restrictions. All the best!

First, the remark that users want to bump up their post count in such threads is based on your assumption and can never be proven to be right in any sense unless an individual tells you their mind.
Wind_FURY isn't wrong in what he said. Things like that do happen. I have seen it myself. Just by reading some of the posts that users make in scam accusation threads, it becomes evident that they didn't understand the problem and are just posting something generic. It doesn't help the case move forward or shed new light on the matter. I have seen scam accusations with dozens of replies, where only a handful are helpful where people are actually trying to figure out what happened and suggest ways to solve the case.
I understand you quite well and you are right at the same time, but his generalizing it is what I was trying to point out. Of course, many would do that to fill up their weekly needed posts, but how do we know it is so for everyone just because we feel so? That was my plight. Even if some people did not construct themselves well, it's not a yardstick that they are just bumping up to fill up, some may not even be good at writing, while others may be stressed at that time but still want to contribute (I advise against posting at that time).

My point remains that there are thousands of threads to post in to complete our weekly post, so anyone may still choose to abandon the scam accusation thread if they like because it is never mandatory. For them to reply there does not necessarily mean that they want to bump up in some cases but just write what they believe is right in their own capability. It is not everyone that can be guilty of such allegations even if they do not make so much sense there, that's my point.
303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 U.S. Presidential Election Bets! on: June 09, 2024, 09:15:01 AM
. Nevertheless, I just don't like arrogance, so regardless of losing my money, I must bet on Joe Biden and the election will be keenly contested like before.

I don't understand your point of view, to be honest. You as a gambler, should have on among your biggest interests (when comes to betting) the potential profit of the fact you can profit of your choices, otherwise, what would be the point on betting in favor of Biden and against Trump?
-snip-
I quite understand you bro and you are making enough sense here, but at the same time, gambling is beyond that, you can gamble based on many factors and reasons, but it mustn't always make sense or profits driven per se. This is why I like you to read about Sentimental betting, yes, this is real and it is not necessarily about any objective betting but a bias towards what you love in most cases due to one reason or another which you may not even be able to prove aright since you may just be emotional about your decision.

This was why I chose Joe Biden and that is the least I can do as a fan against what I perceived to be a tyrant not only to the US people but also to immigrants. We all saw what happened in Trump's first term, I will never support such a person who is selfish and inciting just for his personal gains. But again, Joe Biden has his many faults as well, still, a better choice as far as I am concerned.

So regardless of any other factors that will determine the election possibilities, I am betting based on what I believe is right even if there are scarce objectives/basis/factors to back that up (Sentimental betting).

Do you see such elderly people in your country? Or is it only in Africa? Is the younger ones play gamble more than the elders?
There is no way elderly people will not be gambling in any country where gambling is permitted because there is no country in this world where you will not see mixed behaviours and personalities. I also see nothing wrong with elderly people gambling if they are not losing money and focus to it to the point that their lives will be miserable because of it. But for me, it will get to a certain age when I will stop gambling altogether, this is a personal determination that I will surely fulfil.
What is this connected with? You speak with such an emotional tone that you want to stop gambling as if it were some kind of harmful habit. Just like smokers or alcoholics say that one day they will definitely quit these types of activities.
Emotional, how? I don't feel it that way. I see, that's the way you sensed it, it's a choice and it's normal, but I am happy to tell you that the author doesn't feel towards that direction whatsoever. You see, in life, we have different beings and characters, so our behaviours and personalities, and also the immediate and future plans may not be the same thing due to these factors. What I wrote is what I want for myself which I am determined to carry out even without remorse or regrets, since gambling is just an extra activity, I will not even regret letting go when I am at the age of 60 or there about (65 max.).

In case you don't know, this has been peculiar to me since many years ago, and at that age, I want to occupy myself with only those things that give me a free mind to think and breathe without worries. By that time, I would like to invest more in the humanitarian aspect of life and social welfare and activities. I mean those things that will be productive to myself and humanity in general, so it's all about individuality here my friend, it's nothing personal or emotional as you made it look.
305  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITCOIN will be $350,000 by August 25, 2024 - Robert Kiyosaki on: June 08, 2024, 10:51:29 PM
I saw this on X
https://x.com/theRealKiyosaki/status/1798476195232973066?t=Yj4SD273MFzq68WrQVdQ0A&s=35

BITCOIN will be $350,000 by August 25, 2024 is not a lie. It’s a prediction. It’s speculation, it’s an opinion, but it’s not a lie. It’s suckers bait, but it’s not a lie becuase any prediction about the future is not a lie. I want $350,000 BITCOIN to be a fact, and I want it to be true…. but it is only a prediction. I am confident Bitcoin will hit $350,000 sometime in 2024 but for it’s only a target, a dream, and a wish.  I keep buying more Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, because quite certain their prices will continue to rise. Why am I so confident?  Is it because I am certain about BC, Ethereum, and Solana?  My answer is “No.” What I am confident of is the incompetence of our leaders, President Biden, Treasury Secretary Yellin and Fed Chair Powell. Those three are the 3-Stooges in real life and I am certain, I am very confident about their incompetence.  Take care. Buy more Gold, Silver, Bitcoin, Solana, and Ethereum.  Protect your self from the 3- Stooges.

People that are experienced will know that he also meant that bitcoin may not get to $350000 in August or before the time but this can mislead people that are new. What we are expecting are all-time-high and six digits. I do not think bitcoin will make it up to $350000 on the next 5 years or more. I accept that bitcoin price will continue to increase than decrease in long period of time.
Talk is very cheap, so I don't give someone like him a thought. But one thing that is annoying is for some people to be running their mouths but only to claim they speculate. Speculation without a constructive reason for the claim? All I can see is a clown who doesn't even know what he is saying and why he is saying it. You can imagine Bitcoin that is still struggling to hit back its current ATH at about $73,850 talkless of breaching it towards a higher level and hitting the milestone psychology level of $100,000 which is now more expected by people reaching $350,000 just like that.

The struggle of the coin to proceed higher can only be because of the lack of more liquidity. How will it easily hit $350,000 which is multiple times its current ATH in August which is barely 2 months ahead? This is a joke! To make matters worse, he has no useful reason but to blame Joe Biden, Janet Yellen and Jerome Powell who are partly controlling the power of the USD. Could it mean that the USD will be so useless and fall so much to the point that BTC will be able to rise higher since the two are paired together (BTC/USD)? If this happened, then the whole financial market would have been in trouble.

This guy should just be disregarded in all senses.
306  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Wait for the right set-up on: June 08, 2024, 10:29:15 PM
You have to understand trading before you go into it very well, trading is not something you should be unserious with, because you’ve been winning winning and you just feel like putting more and more sometimes get it right and after staking some more money and find out that the game wasn’t so good and you lost it, you have to take a good step on gaming despite that you have been winning you should understand very before putting in another game
Trading can never guarantee profits especially that there is high probability that the market will end up at the opposite end. That’s how unpredictable the market is, that even if we are seeing a big chance to be in profits at the beginning of our trade but when the market suddenly becomes unfavorable, our trades will definitely end up in losses as well. That is why patience is a must in trading, otherwise we will be trading at a loss most often if we fail to recognize even the basics in trading. Study the market first before one should decide to get into trading.
I don't think you constructed this well as they look looped together and expose that you might not really be a trader, or you are not deep in it. First, having the perfect setup before you pull the trigger has nothing to do with a "guarantee," (no one is preaching that in this context), but a means for you to have a trading system and plan and also strictly follow them with all determination. This doesn't mean there won't be challenges in trading as no one can vouch for a 100% winning system, so that's not the point. The point is for traders to be patient for their trading setup to fully align and I am certain that the trader who does this frequently will have an increased winning percentage.

However, fine, traders can lose at any time as no trader or system is perfect, but the shortcomings that the trader could lose at times will be covered up with viable money and risk management. That is trading for you! There are already laid down rules if one can explore them properly. Nevertheless one thing that is certain is for the trader to ensure that he first fully understands what he is doing before totally giving in to trading. Once you know it and your system is working fine, trust it and follow it without doubts or change of plan which makes many traders lose their money through impatience, greed and fear.

 
307  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Keeping your assets safe in the crypto space.. on: June 08, 2024, 03:44:50 PM
One constant fact that I've noticed since I got into crypto is that the moment a project or a company starts getting popular or begins to gain a huge follower base, it starts to attract scammers like Sugar to ants.

It honestly gets annoying after a while, I can't join a Telegram or Discord group without being DMed by a dozen of them, fake links flying here and there. A recent example is Bitget releasing a couple of articles to inform their users about phishing and a particular malicious browser extension named "AggrTrade". I've seen similar notifications from Binance, bybit also telling their users to be careful
I've always been careful about crypto projects, be it airdrop, bounty chase, NFT freebies and anything that will make me comprise my wallet and engaged on social media for one task or the other. Except for lately, when I started participating in tapping projects on Telegram, this was because of the success of Notcoin, other than that, anything free is not even my thing because it could cause issues later through various demands or compromises. After this tapping of a thing, I will stop entirely as I can only see that it is controlling.

Do this, or do that is certainly not my thing, but if you do not do it, your efforts will not be maximized, that's the temptation. Notwithstanding, one has to be very careful in the crypto world lately, there are too many projects and they are not verifiable, which makes it extremely risky. Binance has also been issuing a warning on the limitation we should give to any project no matter how true what they preach could be, this is a real warning that should not be disregarded. One could lose enough through phishing activities and other susceptible vices caused by the temptation of the freebies, we should be warned indeed and thanks to you.
308  Other / Off-topic / Re: Gambling is a fatal mistake on: June 08, 2024, 02:53:29 PM
Actually I have an elder brother in gambling, he basically works in a private company. Received May salary on June 04/06/2024, he did not come home after receiving salary. Three sons one daughter and his wife live in his house, and he gambled all night and entered the house on the next day 05/06/2024 today morning after losing all the salary money. After entering the house, his wife asked him to go to market, he replied, I don't have money, wife said, you got salary, what did you do with the salary money? 
In this way, quarrels between the two gradually arise and when it becomes known in the society, it is gradually known that he has played gambling. And he went somewhere far away from home after the fight till now there is no trace of him and he didn't try to contact him till now. So I shared this with you because of how dangerous gambling is in the eyes of families and society. What could be the biggest reason behind this person giving complete money loss?
Can you now blame gambling for this? I bet not, you would be very mistaken if you did. Am I not gambling? Are others not gambling whom you will not even know they do if they never told you? What I see here is individual irresponsibility, desperation, recklessness and greed, it is your elder brother who needs to keep his sh*t together and you should stop blaming gambling. If he is responsible enough, wouldn't he have earmarked the money for himself and the family aside from the money he would gamble with?

Let us stop celebrating weakness and idiocy, and find something to put the blame upon. It is gambling this time in this context, for some people, it is women and frivolities, and to some others, it is drinking and drugs, etc. All these are by choice my friend and they tell of whom we are. Some people would do something at times that you will be wondering within you whether they are completely insane, that's how I view this. What we can't learn to control will control us and also define us, so this is not peculiar to gambling, it is what your brother is.

You guys should try your best to deliver him of this mess, I hope he will cooperate.
309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Memecoin specifically for holders.. on: June 08, 2024, 02:28:13 PM
Hey mates, how are y'all doing this good Friday? For memecoin enthusiasts, I just discovered this memecoin with the narrative of 'No more torture for holders' on the BNB chain called $HODL. Pretty good concept if you ask me. I also noticed the devs are the founders of Arbdoge, if you remember this meme from around 2023. So they may know what their doing lol.

As someone who's into memecoins, I think I'll keep an eye on this. Solid narrative, good community support, and CEX exposure too. Wanna ask though, what's that meme narrative that's got you intrigued?
I wish this project of yours very good luck but since I can't find it in any of my popular exchanges, I do not think I can give it huge attention for any reason. Many crypto projects have been hyped in the past so there is nothing you can say of this that will be surprising. The fact that it went to lend the popular name (HODL) that was first used for Bitcoin doesn't mean that it can keep up with that name.

Even the WSM which lent the name from the popular Wallstreet was unable to replicate the success, so I will not bother myself much on this. Oh, I see! I just checked the CMC now, this is still a very shitcoin, so people should be very careful about it. The coin that you claim to be promising still has a $9.9m market cap, this is still very little to even dare to say it's promising.

Frankly, memes are very risky to hold for too long, and just like most other altcoins, they drop like crazy when they decide to fall. So extreme care should be taken while dealing with them.

310  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: June 08, 2024, 02:10:43 PM

Interesting question. I think the first answer that comes to mind is that addiction is so strong that it depletes a person. But still, if this is not such a case, then most likely the person believes that the efforts are paid off by the pleasure received. In the end, gambling is a voluntary activity, and if someone does it around the clock, it is unlikely because he was chained to a slot machine and forced to play  Grin

Basically, there are factors that leads to gambling addiction and everyday gambling can be one because whatever you devoted time doing all day is part of your life such that you can't easily abstain yourself from such habit and doing something consistently without any positive results is not good at all. Gambling is a game of free will, you don't get involved always but at leisure and that is the best way to follow it up. It will be an act of slavery if anyone spends most of their time gambling without good results even if you do have positive results but it doesn't mean you should remain glued all the time.
I will always say that gambling is a choice and how you approach it is a choice as well, but whether you have the free will to choose or not, you still have to make sure you are doing the right thing. Although I am not against gambling every day but I am against irresponsible gambling, they are two different things. You may be gambling every day and not be irresponsible, you might have had your budget and limited sessions to gamble, if you now adhere strictly to it in such a way that it will not take hold of all your time on that day and still have other productive engagement to point today, why not? This subject is not so general as many would take it and there are some gamblers who may not even gamble every day but can be so irresponsible with it.

Take for instance, I am worth $7000 and I gamble between $1-3 daily from it. Of course, this can't affect me, and there are days I will win and there are days that I will lose, but still, the risk has been reduced to a level that will not be shoked to my finances. But here comes another person with the same worth but doesn't gamble every day, nevertheless, when the guy gambles, he gamles at least $2,000 at once. Can you see that the latter is riskier than the former despite not being regular about it? So this is indeed relative and should never be general. Some may just like to gamble, and once they have good plans and be responsible doing it, they will be just fine despite engaging in it daily.
311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who's winning more casinos or gamblers? on: June 08, 2024, 01:52:11 PM
Of course the casinos win the most.  Casino sites never lose  Only gamblers lose.  Casino sites run their business and because of the large number of gamblers on their platform, some gamblers lose and some win and they deduct a commission charge from both parties which is a part of their profits.  Casino platforms make huge profits.  And they start losing a lot of money by getting addicted to different strategies of the sites. Because of this, gambling should be used only for fun rather than being taken seriously
I'm 100% with you on this. Has anyone thought of the reason why casinos are just flooding the internet like a mushroom? This is the reason, the business is booming and the risk is very low. Once you can do the marketing well and have some sizable loyal customers, you are RICH, my friend, it is as simple as that. The only risk there is when their customers abandon them and that can't be good because, they will have to pay a lot of bills which include maintenance, insurance, employees etc. This is why you see casinos being up to date with their advertisements, even if they stop for a while, they might start again because they will be internally checking the active customer base which is the heart of the success of the company.

Talking about the playing, many gamblers are not just winning, they are regular losers and the few that win cannot replicate it as though they have mastered it, so it is clear that more losses will happen and it is to the advantage of the house who in most cases know how to tweak the system in its favour. So the edge in their advantage will always be there.

As for how it is in my country, well, the elderly people are not gambling as such, there is no way they will be gambling so much that I will not know about it as I move around more often. It is the middle-aged people who mostly gamble in my opinion, and if the elderly ones are gambling indeed, then the population will be lower than 0.05% here.
313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is a fun activity but it has some potential to be profitable sometimes on: June 08, 2024, 06:59:54 AM
From the title of the topic it's clearly that I'm someone who considers gambling a fun activity but I can't ignore the fact that for some people gambling is quite profitable as well. I'm referring to very lucky ones as that some people because most of the gamblers get inspired after hearing their stories.
It is easier said than done, but the moment you have a viable means of income aside from gambling, oh yes, you can actually make it a fun-filled activity for you. Mine is not so different from yours, only that I do not take my betting with sportsbooks lightly like in casino bettings. I make sure that I wager a reasonable amount that will be worth the return since I know my percentage profitability. And if you are serious about sports betting, the context of luck should be reduced to the barest minimum. Just try to polish your means of analysis and speculate well and you will be surprised that you will mostly be winning your bets.

Quote
I've made some profitable bets especially in sportsbook but I won't consider those much profitable because the bets I have placed were of low value and that's why the earned profit was also low. Most of the profits were with very low odds and that's why I just ignore those profits and enjoy the fun part of gambling.
This is so me because I like to go for the odds that are so convenient and I do not combine bets to avoid risking higher than necessary. If I bet five matches, you can be rest assured that all the matches will be independent and this has helped me so much in reducing my gambling risks. Though, as you said, the profit can be as high as those who are looping bets together, nevertheless, the risk is little so the consistency of winning will be high too. Now tell me, what do you stand to lose if you are good at it? Owning to this, I advise you to continue this way unless it is not positive for you. Winning a little is better than losing everything most of the time.
314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Internet connectivity - Gambling wins/losses on: June 08, 2024, 06:40:44 AM
Internet connectivity issues is quite annoying especially for a gambling as it will totally drive you to lose all your funds if it happened that you tap or clicked the wrong icon before the internet cut. I saw someone shared a video the same scenario when his phone lags due to internet connection I think and he losses everything because of the lagging issues maybe you are familiar of it as well.
The internet connectivity context in gambling has lingered for long but it is not something that is persistent, it happens once in a while. If you are such a gambler with a bad internet connection, just make sure that you change your ISP before you gamble or try as much as possible to stay away from gambling to avoid issues for yourself. The moment you are forcing yourself to bet despite the slowness of the internet connection, you've automatically signed up for the condition as it is, so crying foul later regardless of the consequence doesn't make any sense.

This issue is also a two-way thing, it could be a curse or a blessing. There are gamblers who would say that it is the internet connection that made them miss a certain game, otherwise, they would have lost bitterly. The same thing goes for those who would say that they lost a good game due to a poor internet connection.

However, what I will not agree to in one of what you write is for anyone to claim that the internet connection caused them to make a bad input, how? Is the poor connection also shaking your gambling platform or what? We should try to take responsibility and I am sure that this is one of them as far as gambling is concerned.

To be honest with you, I don't have a serious reason for that because Joe Biden has made a lot of mistakes this time, even as Trump continues to leverage on division preachings as usual. Nevertheless, I just don't like arrogance, so regardless of losing my money, I must bet on Joe Biden and the election will be keenly contested like before.

-snip-
I said let me express my feelings towards this to forum gambling discussion, if their are people who are living in this kind of lifestyle. And what will be your opinion towards the people living in this kind of lifestyle everyday of their life's?
I will always say that gambling on its own is not bad but the way many people approach it, this is why people are now stereotyping it. Can you imagine yourself, for instance, you went ahead to spend all day gambling, is that good at all? Didn't you have other productive things you can do other day gambling? Just because your country had an industrial action doesn't justify you gambling all day, and by you including that industrial action means that it was never at the weekend, there are many useful things you can do with your free time.

Fine, you can gamble as well, but it should have its time and limit, it should not be extensively as that, otherwise, you will appear irresponsible. Personally, I feel guilty if a day of my life is not lived as planned, perhaps you should also have plans for the day and also query the plan before finally accepting it, it will help you so well.

At the same time, for you to discuss a thing like this shows that you are not even comfortable with it, so it is a good one, since you have a bad mind about it, you might avoid it next time. Generally, people living a life like this should stop, spending the whole day gambling or being desperate about it will take us nowhere, it is good to take gambling as a passive income in a non-desperate way but rather find a good job and other responsible daily engagements.
317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you really want from gambling? on: June 07, 2024, 06:35:54 PM
-snip-
And honestly, I am still confused, because I've thought of money being what I wanted, then "what is my actual target?, what amount will be enough?" is the next question I asked myself, and I realized I didn't actually have any amount in mind, and this made me conclude that money wasnt really what I wanted, but it's not fun either, cus I cant have fun if I am not winning, like I would always say, " there is no fun in losing money".
This is serious judging by your experience in gambling, notwithstanding, thanks for throwing it on board, at least, some people who are confused like you, or who feel they are confused may find answers.

From what you narrated above, I am confident that you are gambling for the money, and here is why. First, it's clear that you are not gambling for fun since you don't seem to be taking it easy with gambling. You are such that risk so well and also conversant with it, so that can't be for the fun part, because those who gamble for fun will take it easy, which will naturally cause them to wager lower amounts per bet.

Now, it doesn't matter if you have a target before you admit you are gambling for the money, in as much as you like gambling and are not satisfied and still pressing high figures or somewhat higher figures than an ordinary fun-seeking gambler would do, then you are for the money even if you do not admit that. Having a target in gambling is a choice, it is never compulsory the way you make it a basis to decipher.

Quote
1. What exactly do you want from gambling? Say it, even if it's something you don't think is possible to achieve.
Mine is clear, I seek my fun through casinos and try to make money through sports betting. Also, I've never been aggressive with my betting to make the money and I am a conservative bettor any time, any day.

Quote
2. What steps have you take to see if you can achieve that which you want from gambling?
As you can deduce from the above, mine is mild, so I do not really give gambling that thought since my focus for money making is elsewhere. However, I have a low betting plan on casino games and I strictly manage my sports betting even as I go for the least possible difficulties.

Quote
Are you like me? Gambling with no sense of goal, direction?
Nah, bro! Far from it. But it is not too late for you to put the pieces together and have a goal and the plans to achieve it.
318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: June 07, 2024, 04:16:31 PM
Everything is your personal life because if you have money you can bet on gambling there even if we interfere you don't want to accept it. And whenever you lose, you bet again to get back the lost money. And when you win repeatedly you will bet on your dream of getting richer. In my opinion, if you don't have a job or business tjen stop gambling. Gambling requires money to bet so if you have a source of income then you can gamble as much as you want.
Gambling is not bad it is a way to keep yourself happy.  However, after losing gambling, many people re-invest money in gambling to recover their previous losses and panic even more when they lose again, which causes them to suffer further losses.  For this reason, when the budget is exhausted after losing in gambling, one should stop gambling and give up the hope of getting that money back, then gamble again with a long gap and place the amount of bet that is easy to accept the loss.
This advice is generally good and can save a whole lot of gamblers if they adhere to it. But the only issue with it is that those who would adhere to it can't emphatically call themselves gamblers because it is such that discourages regular gambling. You can imagine gambling today and lost, and taking a break of two weeks afterwards while others continue to gamble all the same. That will surely keep your sanity for you but you can't always have that fun or achieve that core goal you might have wanted to start gambling for in the first place. This is not to discredit this point of yours but to show that many people will not adhere to it because it will not just be their thing simply because they want to gamble freely.

They would have loved to stay more connected with gambling than giving it too long a break. However, if I should share my own advice, I would say that gamblers should be the person to be careful from the beginning to avoid causing issues that could warrant them taking too break from it. They should learn about gambling sanity and keep responsibly gambling intact. This is possible by gambling with the money you can afford to lose, and not only that, such money should be ridiculous, so that you can manage your gambling portfolio without fear or greed and still preserve your gambling psychology rightly at the same time. It is those who are desperate for the money or trying to revenge their gambling loss with huge amounts that are mostly affected badly by it.

Yes, the 1% Risking strategy is suitable for high-risk types of businesses or games. Some people will accept a higher level of risk, but I think 1% is quite suitable to help us more easily manage our accounts. It helps us minimize risks to the lowest level, and does not affect our total capital, thereby making our playing psychology more comfortable.
However, it must be added that this is just a tool to help manage risk in gambling, we need to combine it with knowledge, skills and analysis to achieve the best possible results.


At the same time, 1% might be too small amount to even qualify for a minimum bet, or also it could be too much and be over the maximum bet in a casino.

It really depends on what the gambler is comfortably losing. For some, that will be more, and for others it will be less than 1%.

Setting it to a specific percentage seems not to be a generally good idea.
You are making so much sense here, this 1% depends on the gambler, his plan and the amount he earns, as it could be too much to gamble at once in some casinos due to their terms and conditions if it is a huge amount of money or too small to gamble if the gambler is such that makes a very low income. This is a good reason why it can't be a basis for everyone, and in my last replies here, I made it clear that whether or not it even goes in line with my income, it can never go well with my personality and my gambling plans, so it is dead on arrivals as far as I am concerned.

I do not measure my wagering amount in gambling with any modality, based on my discretion, I only earmark a certain amount that is convenient for me to gamble and that I can lose without being hurt. That is the money I gamble with, and it's so far so good for me, which I ever intent to keep. However, I know this is so precious to the OP according to how he has shared his view and it is not entirely bad as well, which is why I say we should go for whatever we love in gambling so long as it is convenient and working for us.

Gambling platforms are subjected to review or make a change concerning their policy, terms and conditions of service at any time, they would have stated this on their page if you go through it thoroughly, and sometimes, when such changes is being implemented, some of them take time in communicating to their gamblers while some may not, that is why we must also have a stand on the use of the casinos knowing well that anything can change at any time and get prepared for such.
Well, I have heard over and over that gambling businesses have their terms and conditions and it is subject to change, agreed! But did you read the OP mentioning they updated him about the terms and conditions different from what he signed up for?That is the issue here. The last time I read the OP, he claimed that the casino's terms and conditions clearly indicateed that he can withdraw $50,00 monthly. If this is correct, it means that he has the right to withdraw far more than $500 daily alocated to him daily. This can only be cheating and nothing else.

Also, I like you to know today that there are approaches to doing things, casinos can't be lawless and be using the terms and conditions to back it up the way you pointed it out here. There are laws which both the establishment and the customers must follow to avoid cheating each other, they must also agree with terms of cooperation and be notified if there is a change. If at all there is a change, the change shouldn't be so wicked to the point that someone who deposited $10,000 will have to wait 20 good days to withdraw his money, what if he has profits included? It will now be way more, which is wicked.

Charging such casinos to court will not end well for them as whether they have changed Ts&Cs or not, the judge is not a fool and this kind of a thing is what even angers them the more, and more reason they side the complainers in this kind of cases. They would have sensed forcefulness where the casinos is lording itself on the customer no matter the update in their terms of service.

However, it's the lack of good regulation that emboldens some of them to do that.
