It's time to stop when you've been gambling for more than 12 hours. Your mind wouldn't be in the right state because of stress and hunger so just put a time limit every time you play.
12 hours sounds very unrealistic to me. Who can gamble for that long without having a break and how can someone have that much money too? Gambling for 12 hours mean to be a boy of some billionaire. Also, this is the worst way of killing spare time. The right time to stop gambling is when the limited amount is lost. Gambling can prove to be fatal if someone continues playing it.

Have you ever wonder why even there are a lot of negative things gambling bought, it still doesnt leave us ? Is that so, gambling has been a part of our culture , even you have plenty or not. Rich people often socialize in the form of casino, while the poor are contented on country games with lower bets. I, as a person living on a third world country, witnessed how gambling form our culture. Town celebrations or "fiesta" are not complete without low cost gambling houses called "perya" where you can bet starting from almost $.02 and above. Every corner of the street has some kids playing coin games and even a wake makes its company awake using card games. Weird isnt it? How about in your country?
Gambling could not be a culture of society, 3000 years ago there was gambling, bringing money with the main objective chance of gambling objects showing variety. Today, gambling has only changed shape.
Apparently, as technology keeps changing, different ways of gambling keeps popping up and not people can easily gamble in the corner of their room without being spotted. I know in some places gambling can be considered as a culture since they really do not see anything wrong about it and they can easily have their fun with it, but in most cases and countries, it is considered an irresponsible act rather than a culture.

Madrid derby will take place on 8th April which is a very important match for both Madrid.Because it will decide which team will get the second place.If Real wins the match they will take over Athletico Madrid.That's why its so important.So it's a another interesting match on April.
On 8th April, I think Ronaldo is going to create another crazy part of history as he has created one against Juventus in last match. I think Real Madrid will remain unbeaten in that match also because Ronaldo is in his full form now and players like Ronaldo prove very disastrous in such situations. I don’t know the reason why Real Madrid is still behind Atletico Madrid. I think Zane’s coaching is going down day by day.
Ronaldo, no doubt is one of the greatest player in football but the fact you are talking about that Ronaldo will create a history, I doubt here a little because when Ronaldo gives good performance in any match against the team, he instantly loses his form in the very next match played against the same team and this fact we can easily see from all time El-Classico. I think the next Leg played against any team, Ronaldo should be on bench to secure his fame.

In my own opinion, gamblig is fun and can get your adrenaline on. But gambling is very dangerous when you are a greedy person and even you are wise, you can lose everything by not paying attention to a very small detail, or when you miscalculate something. So gambling is a two edged sword you can earn a lot of money. Also you can lose all your fortune in a second.

Gambling is very dangerous if you can't control yourself to play it.
it will be better to set of amounts, so you can know time to stop. yes gambling is high risk and high return it depends on your luck.
Even if there is a lesser risk in gambling, you have to set a limit as long as the risk is present.
It's like investment where we need to gamble and the results are uncertain, we just have to guess on the outcome and we may be right or wrong.


I dont think gambling is a lesser risk. In just a minute you might lose everything you have, its that what you call lesser? Taking everything, all your hard works will just go for nothing?

As a human being existing in this world i dont think gambling is the best choice that you can choose in having lots of money in an instant. I always set up limits for my self," for me one is enough, two is too much ,three its over" . Gambling is like a life you need to take risk, its a battle you have to be smart and wise in choosing the best decision you will have.

But gambling is really not my thing, beacuse its just a matter of luck, that no one can predict. So in order to explain if I set up limit to my self I'll just give an example for it. I set up limits to my self in everything I do like, in a dance competition I limit my self that if I dont win in my last year I gonna forget dancing and just focus on what my family wants for me. I put limits on my grades when im still studying. Also I limit my self to trust anyone/someone like what I did before  because it might break me again into pieces.
Gambling is full of risks and saying that gambling is a little less risky would be an insane thing. It’s true that people lose everything in gambling in a couple of minutes, even their families because gambling is a matter of luck and one never stays lucky all the time.

But I think that there’s no hard work done in gambling because there’s nothing in gambling on which we can say that gambling needs some hard work. If gambling does required some hard work, no one would have ever lost the game because hard work never goes waste.
345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: April 09, 2018, 12:52:25 PM
I lost my money before, I was in so painful after I lost my all bitcoins, I hate gambling now, but I still gamble, sometimes I can't fall asleep when I bet on sports, it is becoming a disaster in my life.
When you've started to lose a lot, do not force yourself to continue playing just to expect the return of capital - get back the lost money. An approach like this will only make you lose more money. Always check if your money is enough to pay for your next trial.
According to my point of view, continuing gambling when you already lost a lot is nothing else than a big blunder form your side because it is like you know that sea is very big in depth even then you want to swim in it and come back safely.

I think to safe yourself from this thing, you should start some other activity you might have trust in your past. If that doesn’t work, shift your place of living otherwise the situation remains the same.
346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your first betting? on: April 09, 2018, 12:22:23 PM
My first betting was when I was still young and my family went to a funfair in the summer. It was a fun bet because it's a game where you need to place your coin in a box where there is an item listed and you will win that item if you've placed your coin exactly in the box.
I think that don’t considered as a bet because it is a fun game. There is big difference between a fun game and a bet. In bet, you put your money or any valuable thing in the mid just to get the other’s one if you are good with the results.

The person on both ends are just making their money risky with special and contagious intensions to get others’ part too. While such funfairs are just a mode of enjoyment and earning money.

Any gambling forums or telegram groups/channels recommended?
Not necessarily related to bitcoin, simply discuss gambling.
Discussion the fun, the play, frequencies or experiences.
I am quite fascinated by poker recently, hoping to have a little more learning resources

Now I see mostly casinos make own forum of discussion, you could search about it. But i think this bitcointalk forum is more better than others, the reason, in it all casinos gamblers come and discuss and even owners are also come and see the views of gamblers. So for me, it is best and i don't think if you are working on it then you need other forum. Actually, i want to play gambling with bitcoin that's why i prefer it.
Don’t make this mistake. Although bitcoins are so amazing in the world and there is no other better coin than these, but don’t just use it in gambling. This game is all about losing your values and money so why to invest such an enormous and potential coin about which you already know that this can be of big profits for you. This mistake would be a cause of regret to you throughout your life.
348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: April 09, 2018, 11:15:30 AM
It's all just negative effects. I remember that uncomfortable feeling after losing my profits on bitsler and I don't to feel that ever again. Gambling's good effects is just to create an example of a person who lost everything and tell us not to try it for our own good.
There are so many anomalies attached with this gambling thing. Reason why so people continuously being trapped in this game is just the addiction and intensions of getting much money. Some of them don’t know about gambling, but mostly people are aware of what would be the effect of gambling on their lives and families but the greed of earning money takes over everything.
349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and investment - different discussion on: April 09, 2018, 10:45:11 AM
Gambling and invest are different things.
I agree if the casino let you choose the best thing that you can afford to loss.

Remember that if you choose to gamble , even if you win or loss, the site investment bankroll only affect small percentage and for who choose investment also happen either !
You are absolutely right my friend. Both occupations are pole apart in every aspect. Gambling is a game which only depends upon luck whereas investment is not any game and it also requires skills plus some knowledge to choose right place for spending money into. Gambling cannot be considered as some way of earning profits while investment helps in increasing the capital.
350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: April 09, 2018, 08:27:05 AM
Yes stop playing gambling must of ourselves because without a sense of will then we can not stop and eliminate the addiction in playing gambling. But please be sure that playing gambling is the very thing that is not recommended because it is very risky and the effects of addiction can destroy the lives we have. Believe me there are many other things that are much better. Maybe I would say that the percentage of people who can stop playing gambling is just a few percent. Never try once and you will save the life you have in the future.
I also think that if someone has made his mind to gamble, no power of the world can stop him. Similarly, if a gambler has decided firmly to quit this game, nothing can become hindrance in his way. Gambling is fun for many people and it can also give money at times but in the end, one must avoid this activity because it becomes destructive due to the addictive nature. People lose more than they can bear.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: IS IT THE BEST TIME FOR GAMBLING? on: April 09, 2018, 07:54:51 AM
The gambling has been in the practice for long long ago,so always is the best time for gambling when you want to do it as an entertaining purpose.But honestly people doing for money making so this maybe the best time to invest on crypto currencies and and make the more rewards when the price increases.
I agree with you to some extent that gambling doesn’t need a good time. Every time to start a gambling is a good time but I think gambling should be done when you are in happy mode because that will help you to put more concentration on your game.

Also there will be fewer chances of losing as you will be focused properly. Making money from gambling is not an appreciable thing in my opinion because of sorrow it brings to you at the end.
Gambling can be played at any time but I won’t dare to say that moment as some good time because a person’s bad day stat from that point. This is just a destructive activity. It would not only take away money and time but health and relations too.it disturbs one mind and emotions. In my point of view, if someone loves his life then he should avoid such a useless act at all costs.
352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: April 09, 2018, 07:23:29 AM
The possibly other terms on what you are going through when you're getting to loss any chances of life. Gambling is the worst part of losing any chances for having and getting a new opportunity of life. If you're getting to loss you must be accept it and treat it like a consequences as a gambler.

A gambler who can not accept defeat is the worst gambler, the right definition for losers. All gamblers should know that the risk of gambling is losing and losing money, unable to accept that consequence, then stay away from gambling.

People are showing too much pride in gambling they cannot accept defeat simply because they are thinking about what people will say to him. Losing is part of gambling weather you accept it or not you cannot change anything. Don't gamble much because you might face hard consequece in the end.

Gambling might be a game of luck and most of the time you are either wasting your money or wasting your time it is best if you will be just choosing other ways to earn since earning money and getting yourself a handful of money is not that easy but we can't argue to some of the people who got their lives, fame and riches by gambling.

There are a lot of people who became rich and famous because of Gambling but it does not mean that we will be making these people our role model. Gambling is their break and we have our own, we just need to do what we can do.
It is the case all the time that a gambler is wasting his money as well as his precious time. Gambling cannot be played without money and as it is an activity which if done would consume time. So basically, a person is at loss ultimately.

The chances of winning big amount or even a tiny one is 50% theoretically but in reality, mostly gamblers lose their wealth. Luck goes good hardly.
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jackpot...... on: April 09, 2018, 06:49:33 AM
March became my lucky month in gambling sites, I won 2 jackpots that made me feel shock a little bit.

My first one was 0.00763365 btc won, and my big one is 2.46873821 eth... How about you did you experience to won Jackpot while playing at your favorite gambling site?


You got lucky, that only happens once in a lifetime so congrats on your big win, i personally have been gambling for a long time probably for like a year a year and a half, and i have never won jockpot ever i always end up losing all the money that i put in gambling sites, i always play the dice and try strategies that seem to work at first and win a good amount and after a couple of round my luck turns the other way and i lose it all.
Yeah, just once in a lifetime and I wish something like that at least for once in my life time would happen. I have played several lotteries before without winning, but it is normal anyway. No one should expect so much from a game of chance. He is indeed very lucky and I hope he will be able to find something valuable to use that for and not end up gambling it the more and hoping for more luck, as that is what a lot of people that usually get lucky sometimes do.
There are two types of people in this world. One those who are born with talent or you can say that they are God gifted and have luck on their sides. Other who are born with zero talent and have to work hard every day. Luck does not help them only efforts do. But you know what hard work beats talent when talent does not work hard. You don’t need to waste your time here.

Do you think they really care if you make huge profit from the so called investment websites? They don't. They just want to make money by marketing those websites. So its left for you as a gambler to make good decisions to either invest or not to invest. Though, some of those website may not be what they say they are but some of them are genuine. It all matters if you have the money to experiment with them.
For that I think one must not start investing in every website just to check whether it is genuine or not.
Good strategy is to find out in which thing you are going to invest, does that one particular source of income is valid or not ?

Whether your income will be doubled or may there any growth in it if invested in this source? So when questions are related to gambling, all the answers are “NO”, so better stop yourself.
355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking for advice rolling with 100k sat balance.. on: April 08, 2018, 07:07:35 AM
Whats important is that you know what you are doing and preferably have a stop loss. It's the management of your money is the crucial part and soon, you would probably have more than you want but you are feeling greedy. People are like that especially if they are seeing a beneficial thing to yourself. You could try Bitvest and check it out.
Stop loss yeah? I wish it works that easily. The OP should not deceive himself, there is nothing good he can ever get from gambling if he is looking to win and if he cannot deal with that idea, it is better for him not to even gamble at all than to start gambling. No matter the amount he is sticking with to gamble, or whatever comes to he is head while gambling, he should be prepared to lose all or just get lucky and most times, getting lucky is always hard.
356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: April 08, 2018, 04:07:12 AM
I think you need to set two goals, first one is how much you want to spend, and the second one is when you gonna stop, how much you want to get. You win or you lose it doesn't matter just stop after your limit is reached.
In fact, before you even step into a casino or probably online gambling, you should not even start gambling with what you cannot afford to lose, and in most cases for casino, just go with the amount you really want to gamble with in your hands just to be on the safer side. Once you are done, then you are done, as long as you have nothing left, it would be easy for you to stop and call it a day.
357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If gambling is illegal in your country, would you still gamble? on: April 07, 2018, 06:58:30 PM
Gambling is illegal in most countries in world but that is in not opening any casinos or any gambling store there are still many people who gamble among them , over the phone or in group in a society or just random people
Plus there is always online gambling sites which can be easily accessed through vpn, the reason all this is allowed because there aren't strict rules if the government wants they can easily track all these activities they just try to ignore it
Unless the rules are not that strict to put any gambler on the line if caught, then I guess there would always be some people who will be willing to take the risk to gamble anyway even though it has been considered illegal. The only thing is that it is going to be done in hidden places from where anyone can easily just get to or know about. I consider this something very risky though for places with strict laws on gambling, so, personally, I am not always game for things like that.
358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting on: April 07, 2018, 06:20:43 PM
I have never played sports betting so I will leave the answer to the first three questions out. For the last question, I believe common sense even without betting sports should make one to know that the two is very necessary. Players can disappoint sometimes no matter how much you believe in their ability. Small players have beaten bigger players before, so most times, it is still centered on luck. we cannot predict the future and we can only assume what would happen, but there is no strategy unless for you to just do your thing and leave the rest to luck.
359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Criteria of a good gambler on: April 07, 2018, 04:52:13 PM
Good tips. But i think you are missing something very important. A good gambler should have a well thought out game plan (These include staking value for each round, types of games to and not to be involved in etc.) - except that gambler is just there for fun as your first point notes.
The only well thought out game plan I feel a good gambler should have is the amount he or she is gambling. Normally, I would not gamble what I cannot afford to lose and I would not go above that trying to recover what I have lost. If every gambler can keep this in mind, it would make them responsible in their gambling activity and just purely rely on luck and if it does not come, they should just move away.
360  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The most precise definition of gambling? on: April 07, 2018, 01:07:43 PM
there is still much confusion about the definition of gambling, including me. Especially about the difference between Betting and Gambling, despite the fact that I think Betting and Gambling it is the same thing. So here I want to know "What is the most correct definition for gambling?"
Betting is also a gambling you bet to win. Gambling is a risky you can win or lose in short time no need a strategy or knowledge, on gambling you need a luck for you to win. If you have no luck accept the fact that you will lose everything your money.
Gambling and betting are definitely one and the same thing. At most, the difference would be in gambling, a gamblers plays the game himself while in betting he chooses one of the two competitors and places his money on him.

For example, in sports betting, people mostly place bets on one of the two teams while they themselves just sit and wait for the outcome. In the end, both are useless and luck dependent.
