An easy example would be sportsbetting, if you even follow a free prediction, you are likely to get good profit on long run. But rather than doing that, we bet crazy on the team we like.
I would like to disagree with it because it's not true, free prediction are not carefully analyze and therefore a gambler might lose in the long run. As a gambler, we need to trust ourselves only if we want to survive in the long run, there is no such thing as free tips or bets that would give success in the long run.

I admit that leaving gambling is not as easy as imagined. Several times I tried to leave gambling but always wanted to come back again. Indeed gambling makes us addicted, it's a fact that cannot be denied. We must have a strong desire in ourselves to be able leave gambling. And also must be accompanied by increasing our activities in the real world, so our minds can be distracted from the world gambling.
I also decided or try to leave gambling but I can't do that and after several months I started again gambling and on my first day I try to control my self and until now I control my self and Im happy to came back again in gambling. For sure many times of people who try to stop gambling but they come back if you are that person you can minimize and control and gambling will not destroy your life. It's okay to come back as long as you are already in control, besides why would we stay away on something that could give us some enjoyment, for some gambling is bad because it could result to addiction but for us who had experience it would always say that it is not as long as we are a responsible gambler. It's not only you who experience addiction, there are many of us but what's important is we learn from our mistakes and start doing the right thing.

Anyone here have tried this? What can you recommend?
Never borrow money and use it for gambling no matter how you trust your gambling skill. Gambling is treacherous, when you think that you are super lucky and unbeatable, it will crush you into pieces emptying your bankroll. I have seen lots of friends become enemies because of unpaid debt. I am not saying you cannot pay it but it is best not to exploit a friend's generosity and use it for gambling. I do agree, it will only become a big problem if that money will be lost during gambling. Aside from that, it will be hard to pay a debt that was used to gamble, That's right, there are so many histories of people losing their friend because of the same reason. It is better not to try this out to avoid unnecessary things to happen. That would be very irresponsible if we will not pay our loan because we lose in gambling. If the lender are well aware of the purpose and he still lend out money, that means he trust a person and he believes that person would be able to pay. There was actually a saying that better not borrow to a friend or a family member to avoid relationship problem but this is only applicable to people who take advantage on the situation, and if we borrow, we don't have to pay right away, we can request to amortize it over a period of time so it will not be burdensome for us.

Most decentralized exchanges are losing the battle to the centralized ones and Binance DEx cannot be exceptional. Until we have a project that has DEX as one of its product that offers the building of smart contracts on top of its blockchain, ETH might keep on dominating the space
We are talking of DEX here and as we can see, some ETH decentralized exchanges don't have enough volume anymore. Etherdelta is dead I guess while IDEX has a small volume now, only $400K+ per https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/idex/, while Binance DEX now has $600K+.

I am not aware of the clear picture of all the coins listed, but based on what I notice, when PundiX was listed in Binance through community voting, it dump really hard and it seems like it will die in Binance. IIRC, I read an article before that Binance is responsible for pumping the coin listed that pays them so the hype started and big traders followed the hype, for free, there is no money involved so Binance can't help that.

Welcome back @stadus... the match up that you pick seems both teams have 50/50 chance of winning, I am not sure there's a value on it, as a gambler it could be just choosing which team do you like to win, nothing else, and with that I am not tailing this one.
I get what how you see the match up but I will stick with what I think is right, and I saw some value on the Celtics also, at HOME. They beat the Clippers, so I will not doubt about their capability on beating any good teams. Well, if that is what you are seeing, I wish you good luck, thank you for taking time to share your picks but there are games that I am not attractive especially the spread is very small, like I said this is like a 50/50 game as although the Celtics are doing great at home, Rockets has also been so hot lately and they will miss Walker here which is a big contributor.

I'm back with my pick again. I Like Rockets vs Boston, and I would pick Boston here to win @-1.5... I don't know but I think I have become a Rockets hater since they traded Capela. lol. Welcome back! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I have checked the games for today and I'm in for Cleveland Cavaliers vs Indiana Pacers, Cleveland cavaliers have indeed improved under Bickerstaff with 3 - 1, If I'm not mistaken and one of those win was against 76ers, However, I'm backing Pacers here on the road as they've also got a great streak going on. My Pick: Indiana Pacers -6Two win streak both at home, I could back them at home but I have doubt when they are playing on the road as they are not really a good team on the road. However, playing against the Cavaliers, I think they'll have a solid chance of covering the spread if they beat the Cavaliers, yes the Cavaliers won against the Sixers, but Embiid was injured that time if I am not mistaken .

If somebody can contact Arnold Pham, the CEO of Lunyr. He also stopped communicating online in 2018. Binance daily trading volume is down to $68,000. I always wonder who is trading this. Other "abandoned" projects have almost zero trading volume. But this one still has some.
Its volume in Binance is pretty bad right now, as of this writing, its trading volume is only over $30K, while they have over $3 million trading volume in Bilaxy, that was a good volume actually in overall, but can we trust this exchange that they are not faking the volume?

So many games I would have love to pick from, but the lines are just too ridiculous in my opinion, It might be worth it to take some of the upsets available tonight.
After analyzing most of the games, I've decide to go with Miami Heat vs Dallas Mavericks What could be worse than losing to Timberwolves while playing in your home court, It couldn't have been any worse for Heat, I'm convinced they'd bounce back against Mavs who are likely to be without Luka Doncic.
My Pick:
Miami Heat -2.5
I am riding on your pick, Heat is outstanding at home and I believe they can take care of the business here. Just for people's information : Adebayo will not play. https://heatnation.com/team-news/miami-heat-bam-adebayo-listed-probable-mavericks/while Doncic's is good to go,.. another good challenge by the heat here, just -2.5 at home, that's a great odds.

No the price of SUR returned to original price. I think that it was just market manipulations.
Are you part of the team or an investor? I like your spirit that you still believe it will return to its original price. If I am not mistaken, even during the bull run, it has not return to its original price, how much more that we are not in a bull run now.

There is other way but to just hold it, you are not alone with that problem, I also have a lot of coins which only holds 10% of its value and they have become a shitcoins in my wallet now. However, it's not wise to just dump it and access that I lose, I am still optimistic that it will rise in the long run so I'll hold it no matter what.
Also, you need to continue monitoring the project so you'll get an updated information, and as long as its not dead on development, you'll remain optimistic despite the struggle.

looking for some bet to tail here.
Tail my pick. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) We have a lot of upcoming games, I'm thinking if I could find a good combination for parlay. For non parlay bet, the game that I like to bet are the game between the Clippers and the Nuggets. Nuggets are given +5.5 here by the fully healthy clippers (yes, no injured player listed). my bet here would go for the Nuggets @+5.5 and ML.

I did it a few times but I don't think that it is worth it, Just imagine you've work for a whole week for that money and you would just spend it for a short time in gambling. You would risk your 1 week of work for what?
It would be different if you don't consider what you are doing as working, let's say you just enjoy to be in the forum and with your participation you receive a reward and I think you will not treat that as your hard earned money so it's not hard to spend it. I understand your situation, everyone of us might have a different situation in life.

Most likely but I don't consider it totally dead as long as it's still listed in an exchange as any time it could pump and could possibly attract some FOMO. It happened in the past, so I wouldn't be surprised if it will happen again especially when the market is on a bull run.
I'm pretty sure there are some "dead" coins with devs still working on it so it can gain value anytime. That's for sure, and with that, it's always nice to consider investing in dead coins sometimes as they do pump really high when there is a hype or a FOMO. However, everyone has to understand that investing in dead coin is really risky, the principle would play here " high risk - high reward". If you have spare money and you risking your chances, buying some shit coins and place your sell position might be triggered once the pumpers or players of trading sites start to use the coin that you have. It's just a matter of accepting and understanding that the you use is already needs to be forgotten so you don't need to expect that much, just hoping for luck to comes up. Exactly, if you buy shit coin, you should accept already that you lose the moment you buy it, and just keep that trash until the time it will become precious, but there is no guarantee though that is why it's a high risk as there's only a little chance it would rise.

Borrowing money for gambling, that is not recommended and that is the attitude of an compulsive gambler which normally does not result to our good expectation. Why not just save money to raise a good amount of bankroll so at least if you are not successful you don't have to worry of anything that you will have to pay because you did not borrow that amount, maybe you are just too inspired by the success story of some successful gamblers.

There is always the risk everytime you log in to forkdelta. Actually i am not using the site now since altcoins season has not come yet, so basically I would just share my past experience and strategy.
here's what I do, I create two wallet, one for my main wallet, 2nd is for the wallet that I will use to access forkdelta and send their the tokens that I like to trade, and if you are trading a big amount of money equivalent, you can always create more wallet while paying more fees, I think that's less risky that exposing your entire balance, just accept the fee.

Why was Wilder not standing steadily after the 1st round? Was it the punch to the ear? The skeptical me reckons that someone put something in his water hehehe. Tyson Fury was also shown very relaxed before the fight and appeared to already know something hehehehee.
So you mean to say that the fight was fixed ? No, it was not. Fury attacked more than Wilder and he was spot on. You can check here where Fury drops Wilder Twice, Finishes Wilder in the 7th . Fury dominated the all 7 rounds and was deserving champ. I will be convince that the fight is fix if in their first fight it was Wilder who dominated Fury, but it's not what is happening, in fact people think Fury won the first fight but unfortunately the judges scored a draw, this rematch we witnessed is legit, there is no fix in it, it's just that wilder was exposed, that's it.

Unfortunate but this is the truth. Binance Dex and the recent migration of Binance on their own chain is indeed a good move for them but I dont know for those who move on their chain cause obviously there is no other advantage for them aside from the lower fee and lower transaction from using their platform. At least, the Binance exchange IEO wouldn't be gone for good as I believe they are the one who started this. Centralized exchange of Binance would always be on top as many still support them. But their dex losing volume. I think those who joined their chain has only wanted to be listed on their cex if they got their project on their dex.
My feeling is almost same as you, those migrated projects wanted to get listed on Binance CEX that's why many projects migrated into Binance chain. I am glad that Harmony finally migrating from Binance chain to their own chain! Because Binance chain couldn't make a good impact, it's just another chain with less fee, nothing else. Every project has their own technique to attract adoption and Binance did a great job for that although we haven't seen the good results yet. Having a Binance chain and Binance DEX is a good development of the project, when this will be successful in the future, Binance will become stronger and it will always become a great improvement, what if the hype is gone now? does it mean there's no chance in the future?
