There is no sure way to win in the lottery game, and this game is a form of gambling that is based on luck. And in my area there are still many people who play the lottery even though they are at risk of being caught by the authorities, but there are still many who do it secretly and most of them are parents.
and in the past I often made lottery bets and I did that based on what I dreamed of and hoped for luck, but of the many bets I only won a little and lost more and even then I only won two numbers with a small bet. And now I don't do it anymore because at that time I was only influenced by the environment.
It is very difficult to win the lottery game because it is an unpredictable opportunity that will come out. And with this very cheap price, it is what makes many people like placing this lottery bet, and they usually buy in large quantities. I have also bought this lottery near my friend's house but never won once because it depends on luck. And that's also what makes people unable to stop buying lottery because by using some money, they can hope to win some money.

Yes, maybe other people's opinions are different from ours. There are those who gamble can change our family's economy, there are those who gamble because of hobbies or pleasure.  as long as by gambling you don't feel at a loss and are comfortable it doesn't matter right.
After all, we will lose if we keep playing gambling because no one knows when we can win. We can only keep playing until we win, but the consequence is that we can lose a lot of money. If we are ready to do it, we can try it, but most of us will not be ready when we lose more than we imagine, so that makes some of us experience depression and frustration.

From the past until now, many people have wanted to get big wins from gambling but can't see the risks behind playing gambling. And when they lose a lot of money, they realize they have lost a lot.
3223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: June 08, 2023, 01:16:54 PM
~snip~
Once you do feel out that deep regret then for sure you would already have learnt up something basing up on what you had done.Good thing? Yes,.if you do make out some realizations on which it did give out that kind of learning on which it would really be making you more wiser and much aware on next sessions that you would make on which you would really be needing to draw a line when it comes to limitation on dealing up with gambling. Bad thing is that on the time that you would really be ignoring out such stuff and still continue and desperately push up yourself just because you are trying out to prove something on whats into your mind.
Its really a very common scenario on which you would really be having that kind of regret on the time that you do lose money. You would be mainly thinking that what if those money that had lost should be used on
other means or much more worth on where it do make out this kind of feeling that it should really be retrieve it back and this is where it do starts on chasing up losses.
That means he can feel what it feels like to lose money. If he could realize it, he would think he could use the money for something other than just gambling. If he could feel prolonged regret, maybe his mind would immediately say that he should just stop gambling instead of losing money which, if calculated, the total amount could be bigger than he imagined. But most people will not listen to his heart and think it is nonsense because later they can get victory too. Let's hope that doesn't happen to us so we don't experience too many defeats and can still control ourselves.

This limits the players a lot, because no player wants their data to remain in the custody of a platform that can be hacked, that can be violated and, apart from that, it can be an option so that they do not trust, this will always cause mistrust in anyone, for that reason The reason is that everyone is so reluctant to accept a KYC, I accept kyc in my casino which is duelbits, but because it is a reliable casino, which has a high reputation, but in new casinos I don't dare to leave my kyc because I don't know what Questions are what they are looking for, since they are regulators who demand I do not trust much, it is something that all newbies should take into account.
Crypto gamblers are reluctant to do KYC on gambling sites because they think they only play gambling with small money and don't take too big risks. But apparently, crypto gamblers have big money, so they will be the targets for doing KYC. And as long as they can choose a trusted casino, they don't need to worry if the casino will get hacked because the casino will maintain good security. It's better for us always to be vigilant and careful if we want to do KYC so that we don't do it at random casinos.

There are casinos that do not do KYC unless you use multiple accounts. They even allow large amounts.

You can find KYC ratings here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=717790.0
A rating of 1 will only KYC if you use multiple accounts.
I saw on the list that there were a few that I used to gamble with, and the casinos didn't ask me to do KYC (hopefully not because I'm not a big money gambler).

I hope KYC remains not for all gamblers because those who gamble in crypto casinos are those with small and big money. And if the casino finds a gambler with big money and has an odd cash flow, the casino can ask them about it.
3225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you Considered a Career in Betting Consultancy? on: June 08, 2023, 12:15:59 PM
I've never considered developing a career in betting consulting because I don't really know how to analyze a bet and don't have the resources to analyze it. This is not easy because we have to really understand the sport we are going to analyze, so maybe we need to learn to analyze a match and find which team or player has a chance to win. If we are used to analyzing this, we will have a good ability to analyze a match.
you don't need to have a bet consultation or gambling consultation personnel that will educate you of gambling I think is bad ideas. Gambling need something of a personal decision or personal career so that whenever you lost your money we know that yes it is your fault is not another person's fault because someone analysing gambling for you and it tomorrow you lose from it analyses who will you blame, you will blame consultant because it gives you a long description and the wrong direction so he better to use your own way and analyse them based on your observation and way you participate or see before that is participating then you can run for analyse your own thoughts of game
That's why I think it's more difficult to have the ability to analyze each game, so I don't think about becoming a consultant in the gambling business. I can't imagine what I would have experienced if my advice didn't win them over. And I'm surprised if someone guarantees that the prediction can reach 70% or more. But we don't know how capable a consultant in gambling is because he might have a lot of knowledge about the matches that will occur. And because of that, some people may hire a consultant to help them to select the right team.
3226  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is this considered a safe practice on: June 08, 2023, 08:21:07 AM
It's unlikely anyone would ever connect a debit or credit card to a crypto-based casino, but for fiat casinos it can happen.
If you really want to connect a debit or credit card it's better to use a new one because I'm sure everyone must have more than one card so as to minimize financial expenses for excessive gambling and also to protect against other things such as hacking.
But we are in the crypto gambling industry so there is no need to use a debit or credit card.
We know if anyone wants to connect their debit or credit card to a crypto casino, but I suspect someone will. Those who do this probably have so many people that they don't mind using their debit or credit card to deposit money directly. They should really limit the use of money on their debit or credit cards so they don't run into problems or lose money. And preferably, if it is a crypto casino, we should also use crypto because we already have a wide selection of coins to gamble with.

You're right, we are humans and prone to making series of mistakes knowingly or unknowingly, the best practice against such is abstainance, since we cannot take confidence in whatever we do to always fall under a safety control measures, a personal debit card has the details of our personal life on them and they can use that alone on devices to track our permanent address where we lived in and they perform a physical fraud operations if the digital one is giving though time.
Because we are humans, we must really take care of ourselves as well as possible by not doing things that can make or harm us. Using a debit or credit card means that we risk hacking or stealing data, and maybe hackers can take all the money on our debit or credit card. So we should avoid using these two types of cards for our own good so that we only gamble using the money we can afford.

For credit card users it is very dangerous if you can't control yourself in playing gambling, let alone being able to continue making deposits until your credit card bill reaches swelling, I think besides being unsafe it is also dangerous for people who can't control themselves in playing gambling especially people like that tend to be curious if you haven't won yet.

If OP is playing casino just to make money why shouldn't OP spend anything with a credit card instead of spending it on gambling but in the end it will make the bill swell, even though there are limits, but I think everyone agrees not suggesting credit cards let alone debit to avoid something unwanted.
The worry is that they can lose self-control while gambling which can cause the deposit amount to increase, and they cannot control their money and themselves. They have to worry if their credit card bills can swell because of deposit after deposit they make to play gambling.

OP can use or spend anything with his credit and debit cards, but he should know that linking his debit or credit card to his gambling account is not a good idea. So he'd better think about it before actually hooking up.
3227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bankroll management discussion on: June 07, 2023, 06:08:47 PM
Unfortunately, I don't use percentages when playing gambling. If I deposit $30, I won't spend it all at once but will only bet $10 for a while, and whatever the outcome, I'll quit right away. I rarely spend a single deposit to play gambling because I will leave some balance so I can use it to play gambling another day. But sometimes, I gamble over $10 because I know I still have more balance in my betting account, so I'm okay if I somehow lose more than $10.
3228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: June 07, 2023, 05:34:55 PM
If he feels sorry, it is a sign that he will not repeat gambling the next day because if he loses, he will regret it again. Even if he could win and go back to gambling another day and suffer a loss, he would regret it again. It would not end unless he gave up gambling. Whatever amount of money he has lost, he will regret it, and he should have realized after a few losses that gambling was not for him and he should find other ways to have fun. No one is happy if we experience loss. Everyone is bound to regret it, but somehow, we keep coming back to gambling because the allure of gambling is too strong to keep us coming back.
3229  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Risk management on: June 07, 2023, 04:41:33 PM
~snip~
Regarding the quote, I want to say that, Risk management is a crucial aspect of both business and trading. It involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks to protect the interests of an individual engaged in trading activities. The first step is to identify potential risks and their impact of occurrence on your trades .Then the next  is how you prepare yourself and  develop strategies to mitigate them. Regular review your work and with routine day to day analysis regarding the  risk indicators and market trends can help identify emerging risks and enable timely adjustments to risk management strategies. Keep in mind that risk management cannot totally remove all hazards; rather, it seeks to lessen their effects and pave the road for successful trading in the future.
Even though risk management cannot eliminate all hazards, at least we can reduce risks that have a greater impact to adapt to the situations and conditions. Risk management means reducing the impact that can occur and reducing the amount of loss. And in trading, to minimize the risk of loss, we can use a stop loss which can help us not to lose too much. To practice risk management, we can start with small money until we really understand how to do it and survive in difficult times until we can make a profit again.

~snip~
We don't need to keep our profits on the trading site or from the exchange we are using because we might be tempted to trade more and because of this, we might make loses since we can be tempted to trade with big capital since we have such amount on the trading account. Many of the experience traders know this and they are always careful how they execute trades since the market can be very risky when we have not atom of risk management when we trade in the market.

The spot market is a good alternative for newbie traders that want to earn more from trading and have not perfected there skill on trading in the future market. The market needs to be volatile for us to make money since we can't earn more when the market is silence. Traders that trade on a volatile market would make more money from trader since the random movement of the market can make us earn quick and also lose quickly if we miss the trend and direction of price.
It is better for us to save the profit by withdrawing it and sending it to another wallet we have full control of so that we will not be tempted to trade in coins we have not analyzed. Experienced traders will know when they are entering and exiting the market at the right time so they can manage their risk.

I agree that the spot market is a good way for novice traders to learn to trade. And don't forget to use small money to hone your analytical skills because having a good analysis can help you to get the right coin to trade. The market will continue to fluctuate, and we won't know how to choose a coin if we don't have analytical skills.
3230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: June 07, 2023, 03:56:53 PM
Indeed, each day we play we should keep learning that self-control as at any moment you will lose it and exceed with your
set limits. That's really something that is hard to resist.

You have to keep practicing and keep doing your best to make sure that you will be able to work on and not to allow your emotions to mess up.

Think of something that will keep reminds you about the limitations and never to let anything to bother you.
It's true what you say. By continuing to practice self-control, I'm sure we will be able to stay within the limits we have set so that we can take care of ourselves while gambling. And while it may take some time until we really gain control of ourselves, it's still worth practicing and trying. We have to be someone who is not easily tempted by attractive offers from casinos so that we can enjoy gambling time. And being responsible gambler, we can achieve if we practice seriously.

It requires years of practicing patience to have control over your emotions, it's your emotions that make you take decisions in your life, now whether a decision is good or bad for you is dependent on what kind of emotion made you take that decision. We all know that decisions taken in anger are mostly wrong, that is why we are advised by elders not to take any decisions when you are angry.

In gambling, when we lose, we start getting angry and anxious, and that makes us make bad and hasty decisions which leads us to lose even more. So it's all your emotions that make that happen, and you need to practice controlling your emotions.
It doesn't matter if it takes years of practicing patience, we have to keep at it if we are to be responsible gamblers because we have already seen what happens to gamblers who lose control or self-control. We all don't want to be someone who can't control himself and tends to get emotional, so we must work on it.

Practicing self-control is very important because having it well can help us make the right decisions according to the conditions. We can also control our emotions and know when to stop gambling when emotions get involved.
3231  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling is a choice. on: June 07, 2023, 03:20:43 PM
To me gambling should not be taken as a means to ease stress most especially when you are gambling with real money, this is because,  gambling needs good decision-making and also prompt response to the current situation while playing the game and if one is stressed about what the need is something that can help them to relax, not games that can further raise their conciseness and waken their body systems that will prompt further stress.
If someone plays gambling when he is stressed, he can lose a lot of money because when we are stressed, our emotions are high, and we can lose self-control, especially if we lose a lot. And if we are not even stressed, our emotions can increase, and eventually, we will lose money. So if you are experiencing stress, it is better not to approach gambling and prefer to rest. It would relieve stress and emotions at the same time, and maybe sleep would be better than gambling. Playing gambling requires calm and patience, so if you are not stressed, you may be able to enjoy gambling as long as you don't chase victory.
3232  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top 5 Advantages of Bitcoin Casinos vs. Traditional Casinos on: June 07, 2023, 02:53:04 PM
I think the main reason why Bitcoin quickly developed into a sort of a gambler's currency was that it offered a certain level of anonymity to the gambler. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but there was a time when KYC was never a thing in Bitcoin gambling. So Bitcoin became a sort of an underground gambling currency. Gambling in Bitcoin means privacy.

Later on, however, although Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies remain to be heavily used in gambling, with stricter regulations, KYC becomes a requirement for gambling platforms. Although it is not mandatory every time a user signs up, it could be required anytime. For me, if KYC becomes compulsory upon sign up, I might as well gamble with fiat.
The days of Bitcoin casinos not implementing KYC have passed or are still ongoing, but only for gamblers who don't use big money, so they are free to gamble in crypto casinos. But big money gamblers should be prepared to do KYC if the casino asks. And anonymity is indeed one of the things that makes Bitcoin casinos grow faster, especially in the recent Covid time.

But even though KYC will eventually become mandatory, we can still play gambling using our personal wallets because there are casinos that provide this facility. We probably won't be asked to do KYC by connecting our personal wallet with our gambling account. But the advice that still works is don't use big money in gambling so that the casino doesn't investigate your account.

This is also what I'm thinking, this could turn out to be just a porno, so for sure crypto based bookies might stay away from this kind of competition. Might be good if there is a poll to see how many of us here are going to bet on this?  Grin

We are just gamblers though, not into porn or whatever, so there could be majority here that are going to sway and frown upon this kind of competition. In the first place, I don't know if you can call this one a sport and that there will be a champion.
Yes, it could be that crypto and fiat-based casinos or bookies will stay away from it because it is not a sport or a gambling game but an activity created for gambling. But it was weird and unusual, and I don't know what was going through the minds of the owners of the idea because they should be making bets on other sports.

We don't know who will choose it as a sports bet. But maybe some people will follow the bet. But I'm curious who the participants of the bet are and how they will feel if the public watches it.
3234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which League Makes Sports Betting Easy to Win? on: June 07, 2023, 01:32:22 PM
Generally I will say anything that only has win or lose such as tennis,volleyball, baseball etc is better off than going with a game that has three options of win ,draw, lose as this already lowers the winning probability of 50% to about 33.3% of each option which is a disadvantage to a player!

But then again these games boarder around the sporting knowledge one has on the sport the play on and still win even in scenarios of odds being against them...So a pinch of Luck and sporting knowledge should give you an advantage over the markets Roll Eyes
It is not necessary to choose only these sports, you can also bet on football, but choose to bet only an event with two outcomes, like total over or under. But in the case of the winner, you can analyze and determine the outcome, and in the case of the total, it will be a bet more on luck, although in this case there is also an opportunity for analysis.
Sports betting will look easy to win if you have a lot of accurate and valid information to choose a team with a bigger chance of winning than the opposing team. That may have become a common thing known by gamblers and not just the little leagues that allow you to choose the right team. You can go for the minor leagues or the lesser ones, but if you don't have the information, you probably won't win. I don't have a big chance of winning because I don't know the players from many teams, so if I place a bet, I might only see the team or the country or the players, and if I know them, perhaps I will choose them. But I didn't expect much to win because I knew that if I couldn't get good information, I wouldn't be able to win, and I knew that I wasn't really into sports.

So, You are telling us that all web2 casinos are unfair and web3 casinos are fair. Isn't it like a dog eats a dog? You don't have to pull down anyone to climb up. Just improve your platform, and don't put your fingers on another platform. Those things destroy your professionalism. Do you have any proof that web2 casinos are unfair? Let's say a web2 casino admin asks you this question, I am curious what your answer would be. You cannot force others to be the same as you. However, does your casino support the Main Chain of Bitcoin? If yes, How?
Both web2 and web3 casinos can be fair and unfair, but you have to pay attention to the reputation of a casino because reputation never lies. And if the web2 or web3 casino has a good reputation, they will not destroy their hard work but provide even better service. This is what differentiates it from other casinos where a casino's professionalism is well maintained. And what can really beat competition between casinos is how a casino can serve its members well because members only seek the satisfaction of playing gambling and the best service.
3236  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top 50 gambling Instagram & TikTok accounts on: June 07, 2023, 11:32:13 AM
I want to ask this question for a while now and I think this is a good opportunity, are gambling influencers real gamblers? Or they are just doing their influencing job to attract many people into gambling? Because I find it very hard to believe that all gambling influencers are into gambling, many of them don't even want anything to do with gambling, but as a influencer for different types of casinos, they will make a lot of money from those casinos, way more than being a crypto influencer.
I don't think all of them are regular gamblers. But they are gamblers. You won't be able to become a gambling influencer without being a real gambler. I believe all of them were regular at some point. Some of them are not regular anymore, but they have experience in gambling. I believe some of them are irregular because they earn enough money from their affiliates, and sometimes they gamble to check new platforms and sometimes for content. Without being a real gambler, You won't be evaluate a platform. An Influencer has to check many things before they promote a casino. Of course, these days, influencers do not care about that much. All they want is money.
We will never know whether they are real gamblers or just influencers who want to get referrals from what they show their followers. If they are real gamblers, they will show the moments of playing gambling so that their followers can see it or record when they are playing gambling.

But if they only say join me to experience the real gambling experience, maybe they are just influencers. It doesn't matter whether they are real gamblers or influencers because it depends on how we can control ourselves while watching the videos.

debit card could lead to plenty problem we might not able to resolve since the there are some issues that is attached to debit card uses. Those who are using card to fund there online account can be doing that is some. Level of risk attached to it and if we use our debit card on scam casinos, we might end up losing our money without getting it back.
It would be more dangerous if they continued to use credit and debit cards because, after all, we can forget to control the use of the cards. We freely deposit large amounts of money for gambling; if we can't control ourselves, it becomes even more dangerous. So it is not recommended to connect debit cards and credit cards for gambling, even for online shopping, because now many hacks are happening on many sites.
3238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: June 07, 2023, 09:37:05 AM
This depends on how the link spreader see that since if he have conscience for sure he will research first the affiliate link he want to spread. But its really unfortunate that most of then just want to earn quick bucks since they spread links whatever site gives them a commission. This is common thing happening since there are people doesn't want to do more technical things and just want to share to earn because thi is much easier to do.
Perhaps, that's what makes not many affiliates who can't be successful in spreading their referral links because they only think of getting fast money through referrals. They don't think about how to provide detailed and clear information so that their readers can find what they are looking for. If the affiliates can pull that off, they're sure to get people joining through their referral threads, making it a win-win for both. And the more they provide a list of trusted casinos, the more they will benefit the affiliates and the readers.
3239  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: June 07, 2023, 08:12:00 AM
If by "other" you are referring to another human gambler, then you need to know that the concept of you winning and others losing only comes when there is a multiplayer game being played and you are not against the house only, because in most gambling games, you are up against the house and in that case, it is only you who either win or lose and mostly you lose because of the house edge.

Luck is obviously the only element that you need in gambling to succeed, otherwise, no matter how much money you carry with you when entering a casino, you will come out empty handed if you don't have luck on your side.
Agree with what you said. Luck is a determining factor so that we can win; without luck, we will not be able to win. We're up against the casino, and the chances of winning probably won't be as big as the chances of losing. So we must eliminate that desire to win instead of just thinking about enjoying gambling moments.

And if we choose to use a demo game, it means we are not gambling even though we are clearly gambling Grin
Using a demo account is simply wasting your time, only new gamblers try demo accounts only to learn how different games work or old players use demo modes in games they are about to play for the first time just to see how the game looks like, the graphics, outcomes, etc. A regular gambler will barely spend any time using a demo account only so that he doesn't gamble much because your urge doesn't get fulfilled with free money.

And it is almost impossible to eliminate the desire to win when you are gambling, it's just a general instinct that when you gamble or decide to gamble, you have this in your mind already that you might manage to win something big. But, what matters is that you don't let that feeling capture all your mind and make you gamble more and more so that you become addicted.
I don't think so either because you don't need to use your money; if you lose, you won't lose any money. And that can keep you safe in playing gambling but also trigger you to try using real money because playing with a demo account might be less challenging for some people.

And when you can win some money, you will think that if it were real money, you would feel very happy. Therein lies the temptation of gambling, so you must think again about not trying to gamble, especially if you don't have good self-control.

I see the benefit of bitcoin casinos that are superior to traditional casinos. We can hide behind the table playing gambling without requiring verification as people do if they play gambling in traditional casinos. We don't need to visit traditional casinos because we can play gambling from home using many devices.

But if it's safety and security, I'm not sure because there are still casinos that get hacked, but maybe it's not that many. Casinos always try to improve security for their sites to avoid hacking and provide security for playing gambling for their members.

I admit that many gambling games provided by bitcoin casinos keep gamblers coming back the next day. And that is a casino bitcoin benefit that is given to its members.
