I don't really care, they can be instant and easy to complete but I don't care as soon as I can be questioned at any time about the money I send or receive. Nobody asks me where does the money go to or come from when it comes to Bitcoin, but if I sent $100k through a bank I would have to declare it not to have problems later.

Last week, I won 87 EUR. I gambled on multiple sport betting, usually I prefer betting on soccer games and tennis, and I do put only 10 EUR. It's one of my best thing in the start of the this year 2017. Generally, I don't stake so much as the same time don't cross the barrier of 20 EUR.
One of the good things about sports betting is you can bet a low amount and if the odds are high you can earn a good amount by betting small, the only problem is to win those games with long odds may take a while.

The odds may be high, but the risk is still there and the match can go wrong. I tried to place only 3 bets in sports betting on my life and it didn't help me, I still lost. Be careful even with sports!

I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!

The world GAMBLING is really a big problem when you become addicted in the games. But as long as your trying it, gambling is not a problem at all. Gambling is just an object that tempting us to do what is it inside of the games. But once we apply our curiosity, we are already loose.

Not always. I mean of course we lose in the long run, but the question is how much we lose? If that amount is negligible compared to what we have then it would be right to say that we are not losing with gambling but just having fun with it.

Yes, many people end with losing daily but how much they lost is the question? If you lost everything and make your wallet empty, then it is a sin to gambling addiction. But if you played some money and stopped your play at the right time, it will tell you played just for fun. I am in this category. Every gambler will addict this gambling, but only a few gamblers will get realise about this gambling problem.

It is considered a sin to gamble even if you do it for fun, but I don't know if it is also considered a sin when you play with the free money (faucet) you receive from the website. People are getting addicted as soon as they win once a higher amount, say $50. Then, they will say "omg it was so easy" and there comes the addiction.
3464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you beat the house edge on: February 11, 2017, 10:15:08 AM
your strategy is not much of a strategy but more of a superstitious way of thinking how things work. or maybe you are explaining it wrong.
Maybe you did not get the point.As far as I know,he is not talking about any stratagies here,he wants to beat the house edge.

because there is no obvious connection between you winning then withdrawing then losing with faucet and winning again. this is just some coincidence that happened most probably because when you gamble with faucet you have low amount to cover the next losses so you lose in the end. but when you deposit you have more money so you can cover the losses and win in the end.
Apart from the faucet and everything,the most crucial thing that is being wasted is time.You cannot win it back,I bet you.

Playing with faucets has been proved to be profitable for me. Although it is boring if you play with it only all the time, rolling some faucets in at a 9900x multiplier occasionally has worked for me. Ok, maybe not 9900x but 4950x did.
3465  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did Satoshi Nakamoto create Bitcoin using Superintelligence(A.I.) on: February 11, 2017, 08:44:29 AM
I am seriously considering this prospect. We could make this viral and get it onto the media so that Satoshi Nakamoto himself might respond.

are you sure Satoshi Nakamoto was the one who create the bitcoin i saw this video in which he said he's not the founder of bitcoins.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoboO6QPGow

Nobody knows who he is, how are you sure that this is the real Nakamoto that said it..? Cheesy I really don't think that he created an A.I. to create Bitcoin, doesn't it sound too complicated for you..?
3466  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In what situation would Bitcoin die? on: February 11, 2017, 08:23:20 AM
two scenario a might see here, one is witht he value, connected with regulation of the exchange

we see how easy is for chinese to dump everything and kill 30% of the value in no time, because they fear their government...

another one is if you destroy those big farm in china, which it's surely possible to do
A lot of scenario actually things that can make bitcoin gone forever and die.
Since bitcoin running by internet connection and then once internet disappear that time bitcoin useless.
Even though it seems impossible to be happened but it is worth to be anticipated, isn't it?

cathastrophic scenario like no global internet and no global electricity and maybe no global computer, will not affect only bitcoin, therefore they are not worth taking into account

we were considering only those scenario that would affect bitcoin, even broking sha256(not that i'm saying it's possible...) will kill bitcoin, but it would also kill the bank system so it's not worth considering either...

They are worth, because sometimes we are speaking too much truth on the Internet and they hate it. It is called censorship: we would only be able to use it for payments over credit cards and things like news or so. We're building up a huge community that speaks the truth and it's exactly what they do NOT need.
3467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: February 10, 2017, 03:56:18 PM
Online betting is much faster. Years ago you had to leave home, go to a casino or a bookie, stand in line, place a bet, remember not to lose the ticket... Now you can do it on a coffee break or you can even bet with your mobile phone while taking a dump Cheesy This is a revolution in gambling, that's for sure!

If you talk about the speed it doesn't matter with online and real gambling. But with the effort before you can gamble that what matters most. Because in online gambling you can just sit back and relax while playing and you don't have to go outside of your home and get into the line, travel for a couple of hours in able to gamble.
I also sometime like online gambling because of that thing that we do not have to waste much of our time in going outside to any casino and we save the time and money while we take the time in going by a vehicle etc. So I sometimes prefer online gambling in my busy timings.

You can play while doing other tasks. You can play even when cooking or playing games. There's no need for you to go out and even reveal your identity - you won $10k? Nobody knows who you are, you just take your money and party for the win withiut any strangers knowing and possible thieves trying to do something about it!
3468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: February 10, 2017, 03:51:42 PM
Not all type of gambling, it's true that it will give you a good chance of winning if you have luck but what is more important is on how you will improve your method. Your skills is very important, if you are good in gambling, you do not need to rely on your luck as long term success is very possible you can achieve.

This is just silly, if you think that you dont need to rely on your luck how about if you tery and prove it? If you could prove it then you will be the first person thyat actually got this right. In the end no matter what you do, it will still rely on your luck , wether you want to accept it or not , your luck plays vital part in everything
Luck alone is not important in gambling as experience and skills are also important in order to win in gambling if somene will start gambling without any skill then he will not be able to win more.

Oh, really..? So if I played dice for 10 years I will be able to make a living out of it? Cheesy Experience and the so-called "skill" doesn't matter even 1%. It doesn't change anything, you either win or lose no matter for how long you ever played.
3469  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Supertition on: February 10, 2017, 03:04:18 PM
I like to make my bets at the same time as my last winning bet.

Say I win big at 9:25:52 AM today, I would try to bet again at 9:25:52 AM tomorrow.

Just in case the RNG is related to the clock time due to bad coding.

Nice idea, but.. after a few tries I guess you will find out that it is not badly coded. I do not believe in many superstitions, I know there are many out there but I don't believe all of them. I know about the itchy palms and stuff and I trust them because they always worked for me but I don't think the one you said is a superstition Cheesy
3470  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy and Lost in GAMBLE on: February 10, 2017, 01:04:51 PM
Hello   Smiley

I was wondering if you have any strategy when betting and what's your biggest lost

Cheers !

I play dice games mostly and my strategy looks like this: I play 9x (11% win chance) with base bet 0.1% of my bankroll. I double my bet after every 3 reds. It works most of the time, but of course not always. My biggest lost was 0.01 when I hit over 30 reds in a row losing streak.
I prefer safe strategies as compare to this, like betting on 1.25 odds and increasing bets quickly.

But from what i have seen in leader-boards in primedice and other big sites I have see that its much better to bet on high risks like yours since for some reason they prove much better than the safe strategies.
My biggest lost I can't exactly recall as I often loose a lot.

Doesn't matter how big or small the chances you are, the win chance will always be 50% and you're just fooled by that "choose the win chance" thing, I mean you can go for 97% win chance and still lose it from the first bet.. strategies never work unless you have luck
3471  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investing in casinos on: February 10, 2017, 12:29:57 PM
Investing in casino also got risk, you cant expect to earn profit every month, you must be smart to choose your investing place, and usually the casino that provide investing chance got a stats to show to public, so the investors knows the  casino situation

I think making a new Casino can be risky but to be a partner in existing Casino or purchase a already well established casino is worth and i think it can yield a lot of profit. As you know, bitcoin is just a new technology if you compare the total population who uses bitcoins, so their is great potential in Bitcoin casinos and  other bitcoins projects.

Every investment is a risk, bigger or smaller. Creating your own casino is usually profitable, because there are many greedy guys that are risking way too much. It is safe to create your own one.
3472  Economy / Invites & Accounts / Selling Steam Account for BTC on: February 10, 2017, 10:22:24 AM
Selling a Steam account I am not using anymore. VAC status: 1 game VAC Banned (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive). I paid a lot of money for the games I own, but because my account is VAC Banned on CS:GO I don't know how much to ask for so I am waiting for offers through PM.

Now I don't know how exactly to proceed with this sale because it's the first time I am doing it. If anyone is interested, please PM me with your offer. Thanks!
3473  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Easiest way to convert money into BTC? on: February 10, 2017, 10:05:46 AM
i suggest you to try cryptopay. you can buy bitcoin from there. beware from scammers there's a lots of scam stores who can stole your money. there's another website name Localbitcoin its a great site to exchange money into bitcoins good luck  

I'd rather go to a local ATM and buy some BTC instead, it's fast, easy and safe. You protect your identity too.. I luckily have one just one minute walk from my home which is great! The only thing I don't like is that they offer BTC for $30 over the price.
3474  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Saving bitcoins on: February 10, 2017, 09:05:07 AM
No bank accepts Bitcoin and it would be a very bad idea for them to do so. What is wrong here is that you become supervised by a bank, so the anonymus feature that Bitcoin offers will be over for you. This is probably what a few banks will start doing soon so that they can control Bitcoin too..

The whitepaper looks great! I hope the signature campaign will boost the popularity of Qtum. 100.000.000 total supply is great, because the less there are available.. the higher the price will be! I hope this will go big over time. Cheesy
3476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do small investments make sense? on: February 09, 2017, 03:24:23 PM
If you're going for small investments, the best way to do it is to invest small parts, but more times. Split your investment so that you take less risks. It's safer, and profitable.
3477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Win using martingale system? on: February 09, 2017, 02:33:53 PM
I absolutely do not think that martingale is a working strat. The only working thing in gambling is luck. You have it, you win. You don't have it.. you lose.That is it.
3478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: February 09, 2017, 02:18:03 PM
Someone is getting addicted in gambling because he is hoping to win big prizes, there are times that a jackpot reward can make you attracted. Others plays a lot because they are chasing their losses which is impossible to get it back because of the low chance of winning.

And you keep thinking that the chances are you will win .. The chances are usually on the casino's side, or otherweise there would be no profit for them. I got addicted and I know that feel, you never want to stop..
3479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Satoshi Nakamoto an A.I.? on: February 09, 2017, 12:12:04 PM
Impossible. Someone has to code that A.I., so even if it was an A.I. someone made it, so someone made Bitcoin. Why do you tuink that it was created by a robot..? It's manmade, not something impossible to recreate. Satoshi Nakamoto probably isn't even a single man, but a group of coders.
3480  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would you store >100 Bitcoins? on: February 09, 2017, 11:46:24 AM
Since I have been having issues with connecting to my blockchain wallet I am thinking about going offline for storing them now.
With that many bitcoin I would probably put them on a usb stick for safe keeping.
Maybe waterproof them in a capsule or something.

I've got issues with Blockchain too... Now I am using it just for transactions and stuff like that, and I store the rest on my paper wallets. It's way safer and nobody can get my money unless some thief comes in my home that knows about Bitcoin Cheesy
