361  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Site Buys $100 Million of Bitcoin Every Month to Pay Players in BTC on: November 25, 2020, 01:27:46 PM
this will only happen for a couple of months and after that maybe this Poker site will circulate the enough amount of Bitcoin inside their company and they don't need to purchase another batch of million dollar worth of Bitcoin.

But for now let us treasure happy moments specially this bullishness that looks like repeating the situation back in 2017.

Probably a right justification on this, poker site buys $100 million of bitcoin every month but if they reach the right amount of bitcoin that will enough to circulate in their operation as a payout on their players maybe they would stop buying like that huge amount. But its nothing to worry about i guess since what they have purchased now benefits us seing that the bullish market make it again and ATH hopefully can make it to $20000 before year 2020 ends.

having both support from friends and family while going through a medication made by a psychologist will make that person recover easily. Moral support that's being showed will make him appreciate that he really has to overcome his addiction.

Totally agree: I do not think that only medication can cure, at least, in most of the cases. What happens when you remove the medicaments from your daily life? and, on the other hand, it may be as bad as gambling to be tied to this kind of medication for one's life.

Love is much better for your mind, for your body, and it is completely free. Friends, family and in the best cases a lucid and patient partner are the best ways, if not the only one, to overcome such a terrible suffering.

A dangerous effect of gambling in one person was the addiction. That's why we always keep on reminding each and everyone here to be watchful and control themselves. I believe that it is really hard to cure and if even if that person has been undergoing a medication and under psychology assessment can't deny that they may sometimes cheat on. But with the help of the people sorrounds him, moral support and love coming from them they may inspire him to changed its lifestyle towards gambling

I am not gambling whenever bitcoin price is pumping. I don't wanna risk any potential losses in gambling because it can be more profitable if I just hold onto it or just trade with it. That's how bitcoins price affects my gameplay, I totally stop for a bit and focus on more profitable ways to do with my bitcoins.

The best way to enjoy bitcoin pumped, if you think that it's more better to save up instead
of keep playing and risk your bitcoin that's your choice. Maybe for some gamblers they will
adjust and keep the gambling capital based from their fiat worth, from that they can continue
to play and enjoy those gambling games that they usually play even the value of bitcoin still
pumping up.

Definitely each and everyone has our own choices but if i were the one who has bitcoin and knowing that today bitcoin price were almost $17000 i would never try to gamble it. Well for my own choice i would save it up and probably turn to some style like trading or investment for security purposes . I think i couldn't take the risk of losing even a single bitcoin especially today where the bitcoin pruce were nearly at its ATH.
364  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Life, gambling and trials. on: November 24, 2020, 05:08:54 PM
I don't spend much on gambling so I don't expect to win big so whenever I win, it's just a small amount of money that I often use to buy small things that I need. If I don't have anything urgent to buy, I use my winnings to buy foods like cravings just to treat myself as well as my family. I have not tried giving my winnings to my family because it's just a small amount but buying foods to share with them is still nice because I'm treating them even if it's just a normal day. They don't mind if I'm gambling as long as I'm limiting myself with the amount I spend, and it's my money after all.
Me too, if I won in lottery for example i always set aside some savings so that when emergency came and I need money there will be a backup money that I can use. normally I will save 60% to savings then 40% for gambling again, but I am not betting everyday, when my mood is good I'll play but when I'm not in the mood I'll skip, emotions are very important to me when I am playing, for me it has the biggest role in winning and playing.
That's good because you are having priorities unlike other gamblers who spending all of their winnings then they will regret it later after they lose it. I have a trait of a gambler who are always focusing in managing risks because I know that gambling is not just being skillful or being lucky and for me it is not enough because what we need is to know how to handle different risks. Handling our psychology is also important wherein we should not be greedy especially when we are having consecutively winnings because there are times that it lead us to become greedy and lose all of our recent gains where the profit goes waste just because of greed and not managing the risk very well. 
If you become too greedy that you have used all your winnings to gamble again then end up losing it, you won't enjoy the fulfillment of winning. It's like you just won for nothing because you were not able to use it in other things, you have just lost it in gambling. That's why whenever I won, even it's just a small amount of money, I always try to use it in different things. It's good to know how to manage your winnings in gambling so that you can enjoy and appreciate what you have won.

That's why it is better to save even a small portion of amount from your winning bets than spending it wirh the things that come out soon you didn't know where your money goes. Once an easy money came from an easy earning will also be easy to spend with. Life as a gambler wasn't easy and so do winning in it that's why we should be watchful in everything we've done in gambling because once we enjoy what we were doing addiction takes place.
365  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Probability on: November 24, 2020, 05:57:21 AM
Knowing these probabilities might be helpful to assess your exact chances of beating the opponent, however, I don't see much point in memorizing or copying them somewhere and keeping in sight during the game (maybe if you're a beginner). The thing is - if you're a regular player you realize all that intuitively. For instance, I never had a clue what's the probability of being dealt a pair or three of a kind, but it has always been obvious that the latter one is much cooler Cheesy

On the contrary, I think that some kind of dynamic probabilities may come in handy. I mean some kind of guides or calculators (even better) that would show you how the probabilities of holding a certain card will change depending on your decisions (especially useful when you decide whether or not to discard your cards, and if yes - which ones), because in this case, things might be less apparent. Sadly, I've never seen anything of the like.
Remember that sometimes it doesn't depends solely on the cards sometimes bluffing and other strategies do matter on most of the circumstances. I don't have to memorize all of this too but it comes in handy if you're that genius or if you have much time thinking what are the other cards of your opponent is holding which I think is very rare to happen.

I don't even know how to used the mathematical probability of playing a poker cards. What i know was that you should have the smallest amount of cards in hand to be able to win the game. Well it so happen that sometimes or even always you may get a set of cards where you can't make a set of flush, royal, or straight plus and this is where you can apply your strategies and tactics to manipulate your card that's why memorizing of all of this might not useful to me.
366  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino workers forced into unpaid leave on: November 24, 2020, 04:39:53 AM
Now we can see a perfect example that demonstrates huuuge privileges of online gambling and casinos in particular. I bet not only they aren't facing a crisis, while everyone else is, but are actually gaining more revenue now, because the gamblers never stopped playing, right? They switched to online  Lips sealed


Sooner the real casino businesses will adopt online casino and more about the employee or workers they needed must be a worker know more about programming and software issues. And sooner the percentage of non employed will rise. This pandemic has brought to businessman to open up in their mind about online business and transaction. So maybe its a time to switched our minds instead of working at real offices, start worked at our own pace and learned more about digital like online gambling.
yeah that is the sad part because since the Pandemic time People realizes the importance of playing online than Going in Casino houses in which hassle in time and the chance of infection.
So sooner now gamblling operators will focus in engineering how they can put business in online while they wanted to expand the operation,but the employee will be lessen as there is no need in physical workers.
The business owner needs to think about their business, and in this pandemic, they see that the online business can give them the way to still running their business. Maybe some of them prepare to launch their business online and attract their old members to playing, and if that succeeds, they can reduce the expenses to their employee. But at least, the business owner needs to think about their employee

But the sad part will come to their employee who doesn't get paid for their jobs. It is time for the ex-employee to think about how to solve this and search for new jobs. In this new normal and many limitations from each government in many countries, they need to search for the new job while being careful with the infection that is still around them. Some ex-employees can use the internet to search for new opportunities or make something related to the internet.

Its a sad but the truth of reality which was already happening today. As soon as the technology keep on upgrading and so the way of life of people should also follow the trend. Its not just we should blend ourselves from the rapid changes of technology will its because we have to do it to be able to earned, and to be able to live. Can't deny the fact that in future there will be less employee and more in digital aspects businesses even gambling or casino business.
367  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to my bitcoin if I die today? on: November 24, 2020, 02:25:59 AM
Reason why it is important to at least allow one member of the family to know about your involvement with crypto and also be aware of your asset and how to access it should such situation arise, in another way, the person can easily include the btc asset as part of their will and state how the distribution will be among the family members, it is all about make plans for that.

Yes appropriately that deserve some or even one of your family member know about your private wallets, your bitcoin and what important things you think should be disclosed to him/her but you should also keep in mind that the one you choose to share with your pin and private things about crypto were supposed to be your trusted person. I think teaching kids at a young age would have advantages and disadvantages since everyone knows the probable effects of having or dealing with bitcoin. It should be taught to a child that has a capability to manage itself wisely while dealing in bitcoin once a non expected things happened to you cause you're not here around to guide him/her.
368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: THE MOST PAINFUL DAY IN MY BETTING CAREER on: November 23, 2020, 11:24:23 PM
I think professional gamblers will just shrug it and move on if you are watching the world poker tour, it's a nice competition which is a gambling wherein they bet money and of course, the prize is money and a title, I think you should learn from them because they will show you how to bounce back from a defeat, thinking about what happened in the past will not change everything, it will just stop you from moving forward.
Being in a professional player in gambling takes a lot of time in order for us to learn all of it, during this time we should learn how to love forward in all our losses, this might be hard at first and will take us days to weeks for us to recover but when we do, it should be great. So when you lose make it as an experience and learn from it, each losses will be our lessons, it Can shake us of course, but do not let it pull us down, I hope OP will understand what I am saying, and soon you will becoke a professional gambler as well.
369  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Argentina raises Gambling tax on: November 23, 2020, 03:37:13 PM
The government has to find a way to help the people of his country, for the vaccine, assistance to the people, and where can they get those big amount, from companies taxes, the government need those, especially from the casino which we know has big contribution when it comes to taxes, during this time the best thing that a company can do is to help by giving taxes since they are going to get profit once the pandemic is clear and open its door to the public

I do expect that as soon as one country needs to operate and get back its economic again first thing for sure the taxes may also get an additional percentage. We all know that the taxes of people, small or big businesses were the blood of the country to move. A good thing to know that the taxes allocation were for province and lets say for those who would benefit was the vulnerable one but the drawback of it was the most affected one was the small businesses and the ordinary people who were earning at a minimum wage.
370  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Player protection - stop loss limit on: November 23, 2020, 11:16:50 AM
Many sites also have an option that you can exclude your own so that you can protect yourself that way.
Maybe you will regret it later, that would be probe, but a site cannot do anything about that.
If a casinos really have this feature, a stop loss but then we let our emotions affects our gameplay so much, then it is still worthless we should learn to stop ourselves so that we will not have any losing streak. And we can rest as well after we lose.In trading that's what I am doing to avoid losing too much and that is what I am doing now if any casinos will have that. We should have discipline in ourselves and make our emotion stable before we play so no matter may happen it will not hurt us too much.
371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin price rise affect your gameplay? on: November 23, 2020, 09:27:19 AM
This is what I did, I converted to doge instead of playing in btc. Aside from saving enough money because the transaction fee cost is also low, my gameplay seems like normal because the price of doge is really low compared to btc. The number of bets I can made is higher than staying in btc.
Ahmm yes, this could be helpful, maybe in every time you will about to gamble try to convert it to another altcoin. so that you can play more and the price is much lesser to its value to bitcoin, transfer fee really hurts as well. I can't afford to transfer with high fees to be deducted from my money, so I guess I rather convert it for now, when I want to play and I want to withdraw it, I convert my bitcoin to eos before then transfer it in exchange then Xrp for faster and very cheap fee.
372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin make someone the richest in the world? on: November 22, 2020, 11:01:43 PM
Man, I'm sure the richest of the rich in this world became rich because of business and multiple investments from different platforms, maybe some invested in bitcoin too. And I think someone can be rich here, but I'm also sure he will try to create business in fiat too just to be among one of the richest. Capitalism makes them rich too btw, in bitcoin or in fiat, it will be the same.

Its undoubtedly that having a single token of bitcoin was a real high worth if it would exchange in fiat. But knowing the richest man alive on earth could possibly be by just dealing full time in bitcoin i bet would take for some time though it isn't impossible but the legalization of bitcoin would be a big factor for it. As far as i know becoming a richest man shouldn't have to focus in a one kind of platform of investment and that's how the richest man alive today does.
373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will be used instead of paper money on: November 22, 2020, 06:24:09 AM
It reasonable for Bitcoin to be used instead of fiat currency due to Bitcoin potential and the world going digital but the case of national currency been obsolete is the reason the government dont want to support Bitcoin and the Chinese government are the perfect example so I will say it too early to decide what will happen in the future despite the fact that Bitcoin seem to be supported by some banks/institutions.

A very well said, fiat couldn't be totally obsolete maybe bitcoin could be one of the mode of currency in one country where each and every country would met without the means of exchanging from one currency to another but the used of fiat inside the respective country i guess would still be their. Each country has differenct economic growth like third world country where i bet so impossible to used bitcoin as a whole currency circulated inside the country.
374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin do you trust, BNB or ETH? on: November 22, 2020, 03:27:34 AM
I see no reason not to trust any of them. BNB and ETH are highly trusted by this crypto community. Ethereum is the most widely used and the most popular platform based token, Most of the tokens on the market are based on ethereum. On the other hand BNB is the original coin of Binance. It is just an exchange based token but now has a lot of utility. binance chain has Dex and the binance launchpad also supports bnb. You can trust both of them, for me these two coins are very much worth investing in in the future.

Well its bescause both crypto coin was a good coin to invest with. You can trust both Binance and Ethereum when it comes to invest since both has a good project developer who puts both coin to where it was now. Perhaps Binance has a good project developer that's why it is was one of the good altcoin to invest with. Thougb we can't refused how good Ethereum too as investment. In fact, Ethereum was next in line to bitcoin in term of hierarchy of cryptocurrency.
375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dose meme helps a crypto to be viral? on: November 22, 2020, 01:20:05 AM
There are advantages and disadvantages that crypto memes can give in cryptocurrency. It helps also to attract certain person into crypto space specially if the meme is questionable yet entertained to them. However, only those who are curious and interest will pay attention for crypto memes. It might be also an ignore for others since they can't relate enough in memes talking about other things. In fact, memes in crypto are more deep than normal memes. You should have atleast a few knowledge about cryptocurrency in order to laugh at the meme.

Exactly what it would make as first impression to cryptocurrency. Yes it would attract certain persons but truly it Only attract those who were curious and of course interested about cryptocurrency would pay attention to the memes. Though as of now, memes were become trending once the topic was catchy to the people. Any possibilities may happen and if memes will become another way to be able to introduced crypto to the other people why not right.
376  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin price rise affect your gameplay? on: November 20, 2020, 11:11:44 PM
It's too much and not really necessary. Unlike in trades, it was useful to track records as that was part of our reference. In gambling, I don't see how it will become an advantage. It's just a merely a pure record.

But if that user is comfortable doing that then up to him to continue. Maybe just want to track how much money already spend on gambling regardless of what's the bitcoin price in a given trend. That was an effort though.
For me, everything that can help me to track my losses is good. It will also help me to budget my next money that I will spend in every game, since I don't want to spend too much in gambling. I want everything in moderation, so if bitcoin increase the price I will only bet the same amount I bet in the previous games, I mean if my bet is always at 50$ I'll convert it into btc and that will be my bet. but I think it is not really a big thing since consider the volatility, it's normal.
377  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy Low, Sell High on: November 20, 2020, 08:28:40 PM
In this season we are is good for anyone to sell, since bitcoin is still rising in the market show that,this is the time to sell and make a good profit since the bitcoin price is high in the market. Buy when the price is low and wait for the market to change for your wish,  before you can sell and make a good profit. This is not the time to buy because the price is still high in the market which is not good for anyone to buy, if he or she want to make a good profit from the market.
I think you are wrong, these days if you are having bitcoin, it is better if you hold it rather than sell it, we believe that bitcoin will continue to grow and pump in the next few days, and if you are a bitcoin fanatic for years you already know that during these months bitcoin is really increasing, it is bullish month for bitcoin, wait for Q1 next year before selling, or wait for January to February, I think these month we can see the new ATH of Bitcoin, then this is the best time to sell.
378  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Whats your fears in new cryptocurrency? on: November 20, 2020, 07:25:54 AM
In the past years in this cryptocurrency project many of has experienced had I know especially me because of some cryptocurrency project I missed to participate because of fear and doubt, as a person if you begin to look at the risk and what you have lost in the digital world you Will never get yourself involve in new crypto currency forgetting that life itself is a risk. What then is your fear in crypto?
"scam"! This is my biggest fear of new cryptocurrencies...
every new cryptocurrency always offers that they will be the best and will be able to shift Bitcoin, Ethereum, or others. in fact, that new cryptocurrency has become useless because it is simply not in demand. it's better to just focus on obvious old cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum.

This was the main cause of fear by entering cryptocurrency and even by investing in a new rising coin or altcoin. Scam were almost everywhere and i don't get it why people were happy to used this inhumane strategy to get a high profit which will not cause them a lot of time of waiting and an instant high profit. And it is so hard to identify which altcoin were worth investment that's why a only tips that everyone tells was to stick to the proven altcoins like ETH.
379  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What should I study to learn how to trade? on: November 20, 2020, 06:26:23 AM
Learning about trading before starting trading is an important thing to do. Because if we don't have knowledge about trading it will be
difficult to determine a good strategy for trading. We start learning trading from the basics first. Lots of guides for starting trading spread
on the internet, study well. Then we will easily make profit from trading, for capital used, adjust to our financial capabilities.
There is a need to learn technical analysis to be able to really earn from trading though having basic knowledge can be suffice but may not be able to attain what we really aim when it comes in trading. There are too many terms and charting process that can be learn but all we need is to have a discipline to understand it all and effort to learn and study each projects.

As always and will be the top priority of a trader was to learn the technical and fundamental analysis of the crypto market. It is easy to access basic information about how to successfully trade in crypto just by searching it on internet but the technical analysis can only be acquired by your own observation and analysis and of course with the help of some ideas that you can get here in forum and sometimes in internet.
380  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you are new to crypto this is for you on: November 20, 2020, 04:53:52 AM
1. Learn to control your greed
2. Money making should come last, learning is the first thing to do
3. Do research on exchanges as there are many bad eggs among the good exchanges
4. Follow the crypto investment rule, don't invest more than you can afford to lose
5. Don't put all your eggs in one basket, diversity is the way of winners in crypto space

These 5 points are not only very important to crypto newbies, but to everyone. Many people just want to make money without learning to earn, this is why they easily fall prey to crypto money doubling schemes (HYIP), promising them very huge return on investment. Some people won't even learn the basics of trading and will dive into trading with big funds. Imagine a newbie longing or shorting a coin on futures trading with 50x leverage and getting liquidated, that will be a horrible experience and discouragement. This will be due to two factors, and both are included on the 5 tips posted by OP, which are greed and absence of learning (no. 1 and 2 covers this). Let's always discipline ourselves and have a risk management plan we follow while investing in crypto.
Definitely self-discipline should always comes first before anything else because if you lack this, you won't find success in crypto. There may be ways on how you can survive in crypto and earn huge amount but if you lack self-discipline, you will still end up having losses. Gaining knowledge, skills and having risk managent will automatically follow once you instill discipline first.

I bet that each and everyone has their hidden agenda to easily get a high profit in cryptocurrency because maybe the most thing they know like me about crypto was a huge profit they may get so they were going to expect it too. I do admit that i have the same outlooks to crypto way back then in my first stoop here but it all changed as i grow more in learning about it. I learned that greedy may lead me to some huge lose ahead and discipline and self control should be always on top which i can always read here in the forum and so far it is the best adviced that i applied to myself as a newbie or even up until now.
