Gambling can't help in your life. Gambling is up to luck, and that nothing you can do to create or prevent the outcome. When you win, you wanted to feel the feeling of winning and when you lose, you don’t want to walk away with less, so you keep playing hoping that you'll get lucky and get back all the money you’ve lose.  And that would end up losing all your money and ruin your life. It will only make your life miserable.

It can help you with your life, have you experience in the times that you are in desperate need? I'm looking at this moment that bitcoin helped with my life on that moment. I took the risk and gamble with my last money, I need 0.005 BTC worth of bitcoin by that time and I have 0.001 if I can remember so I took the chance of dicing it and luckily I won and upon reaching 0.005 BTC I stopped because that's all I need on that time.

On the contrary, I think investing is less dangerous than gambling, but you need to look carefully where to invest your money. Now there are a lot of scammers and for some it's obvious that you do not have to invest your money there.

Dangerous isn't the right term for it but it's riskier. That might be the right word for it as many of us here are gambling because of the fast profit that we can get. And as we are well all aware of the risk in gambling we are staying but if you are a gambler and you don't have investments then you are missing something in your life. But if you are a gambler and you have some investment, then you're a wise one.
3623  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: September 25, 2017, 12:28:30 PM
Correct. But again investing on trades can be a lot painful if shit happens. Well shit happens most of the time, just like what happened to doge. It went from 25-100+ sats back to 25sats a coin. What a bummer

There's no investment that will not give you headache or pain when something is happening crazily. There are so many challenges that will make your heart stronger when you are trading with alt coin and this is going to be one of the hardest part in trading. But even this is happening I'm not going to give up and I'll keep on trading with alt coins while gambling also for my stress reliever.
3624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: September 25, 2017, 11:53:41 AM
It always fun to play when in profits, for me i gamble to make profits and share some to my friends, i feel less fun when im losing what i got especially if its a deposit and i only play the games/sites that I now are fun to play.

It's a choice of both, we gamble for profit and if we win, that's really fun at all. There's no gambler that is having fun when he's on the losing streak and instead of having fun we are mostly going to feel upset and very bad on that moment. Everyone's goal here is to play for profit and people that will say they are for fun are very rare or not they are just lying and just telling it to hide their main reason.
3625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you know game like pusoy or tongits? on: September 25, 2017, 11:25:11 AM
This game is very popular in my country but to be honest I never tried playing pusoy  so I don't have any idea how to play it with tong its though I have tried playing it once and I had hard time understanding the mechanics.

If it's popular why you never tried to play with pusoy. I know this game and it's like a poker game, I'm not good though but there are some videos that is giving me an excitement to play this game. I never seen an online casino that has this game. I want to play this game together with my friends who are into poker and I want to see if they can adjust with this game since they are all experts in poker.

Why worry? they are only doing this to protect their interest. they cannot and would not stop the revolution. Viva bitcoin!

We know what they did last time and the CEO of JP Morgan really wants to hoard a lot of bitcoin while it is still early. And there's no more big impact with the last statement of Dimon or we are just sick and used to his words.  I'm not worrying anymore if there is another statement that will go out from Dimon and will say that "bitcoin is dead", "bitcoin will not give you profit" almost every word that he want to say, he will say just to make the price of bitcoin lower again.
3627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do small investments make sense? on: September 25, 2017, 10:17:19 AM
For me, it will still make sense. All investments make sense, as long as we take care of our investment and always monitor the price. It will still worth it to wait just be patient.

Every amount counts in investment and all things are starting from lowest before it go to the highest. And if you are a person that's very positive with things and you have a small investment and you are working hard for it don't get yourself wrong because all of our efforts are paid off in the end. The harder you are going to work then that small investment can grow so it will give you more desire to invest as your small investment is now making sense.

i also think that i am addicted to gambling because i can not afford to stop playing gambling for a single day.

If you are playing that way, you are a certified addicted person. Addiction means that you are not stopping in any activity and thinks that you are positively doing it. But on the other hand, when you can't afford to stop you should do something while there is still enough time for you as you are aware of what you are doing. How long do you think that you are addicted in gambling already?
That's not normal, if you can't stop playing, you should see yourself in the mirror. It's not safe to continue like that knowing that you are making yourself more prone to the dangers of gambling addiction and probably worse, forgetting your own health just to gamble. If that doesn't make you aware, I think it's too late but I believe it's never too late so better continue striving to stop gambling addiction.

It's not normal for those people that are aware of what they do. And for addicted gamblers this is just a normal thing, no one can stop them to keep on playing so basically they can't help themselves to stop. What are you saying that you think it's too late but you think it's never late? It's quite confusing but I think I'm getting your point that it's quite late but there is still some resolution for this addiction.
3629  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: September 25, 2017, 09:10:33 AM
For me I should never sell my bitcoin because in the near future it may increase its value. Because maybe in the future we used bitcoin for a big investments.so that we can earned a lot here.
This is the reason why everyone is holding up today. And there are some people that decided to put a certain amount on their cold storage and will only touch it a certain time too. A couple of years will be passing or maybe 5-10 years before they'll touch those bitcoins that they are holding. Just don't sell all of your bitcoins because one day you'll see on how you'll be able to make big money out of your patience.
3630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: September 25, 2017, 09:00:26 AM
I have no idea that Kendrick Perkins is now on Cleveland Cavaliers. A good choice since no doubt that somehow Perkins can be a good asset at inside stuffs. He is known for having a stronghold position at the paint whenever on offense and defense. And we have seen that during his Boston Celtics (on which he won a championship) and Oklahoma City Thunder (reached Finals) days.

Also Cavaliers really needs people at that position so it's a good choice.



I witnessed on how this big guy played since before he was on Boston Celtics. I loved on how he play under the ring. And this makes the Cavaliers stronger now together with the hearsay about Wade's transfer to Cavaliers so what do you think with this team? I'm having a big guts that they'll get the championship for this year though it's still early to assume or I might eat my words again.
3631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: September 22, 2017, 07:31:49 AM
There's now a slight clear path on where Carmelo Anthony will landed.

As expected and as far as all rumors is pointing out, Houston Rockets is the closest team that maybe he will landed. If that will happen, I don't know who's Rockets player will be put on trades. No doubt, even their caliber players that help Rockets reached their strongpoint at recent playoffs will be placed on trades. Another good lineup will be wrecked because of the incoming superstar. Hope that it will be a nice move for the Rockets.

Clear path? Carmelo Anthony on Houston Rockets? Hmm why they do they have to do this trade just for him. Yes they've got a good line up and someone will just wrecked their game play. Why there's a push for Melo but well the management is the one to decide for their own team. Also it can maybe a part of their marketing for their franchise, I'm not judging their move but let's see.

Not a 100% clear but slight of it.

This coming Monday is the expected date of Carmelo Anthony's trade and like I said, only Houston Rockets is the team that mostly out on the rumors. Let's wait next week for an update. Hope that no delay will happened.

Alright, will wait on this news and much better if you can post it here immediately as I'm watching this thread for different news about change of roster and updates for this season. Seems this thread is inactive for this day can't wait for the start of the league on October first it will be Golden State Warriors vs. Nuggets. This is an appetizing game for GSW, one of the crowd favorite for the past years.

3634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: September 21, 2017, 08:22:17 AM
From my experience giving up from gambling is not a easy if you are addicted toward the gambling. You need a counslar to stop the gambling it just like the addicted towards the drugs and you just choice the other option to deviated your mind from the gambling

Compare addiction of gambling in other addictions like drugs, smoke, woman. All of them is hard to resist, these are all temptations and once you used to it this will be your addiction. And it's like you can't live your daily life if you will not gamble for this day. It is hard if you don't have any courage and there are no people that are helping you and encouraging you that you can do it.
That addiction would surely have one result, which is to ruin your life. Usually when you are addicted with drugs you can also be addicted to girls, smoke, and gambling so drug addiction is the worst. Gambling addiction is hard but you can solve your problem if you will listen the advise of people who care for you, they will help but it's you will have to do your best to quit gambling for good. It's not fun anymore when you are addicted, in addition you are wasting your time and money.

In every addiction there is no good effect and result to the gambler. And that's why a gambler should change his mind and starts to say that giving up gambling is easy and he can do no matter what happens. His mindset should be set like that because if not, he's going to face bigger problems in the long run. I was once became an addict and it's hard to live with that life, you're body will used to it and it's not going to give you any confidence.
Actually thinking of quitting is the last option but when we start to gamble we should always think of the prevention because when the problem already sink in to us it would be hard to quit. If we only learn how to educate ourselves then we will easily understand the nature of gambling and we will always be careful every time we play to avoid being addicted.

We can educate ourselves out of those experience we had made as we gamble. And if he can't do it alone, he must admit it to himself first that he can't do it and he is weak enough for doing it. After admitting it that he can't do it alone, look for someone that can help you to quit, this is going to be one of the most effective way if you do really want to quit. As no man is an island, this is real.

Question1: Best gambling games you ever in countered please do share it here I really want to try games that are fun and the same you earn Bitcoins?

Question2: can I play games by the use of altcoin or just bitcoins?
#1 Sports betting, I mean real sports bet. You'll play together with your friends in the nearest basketball court and start the ball game, this is the best experience that I had when I was younger. And it is still existing here in my place up til' now though I roughly play with them as I'm busy with my stuffs.

#2 Yes, only few casino's accept bitcoin only.
3636  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Getting started with sports betting! on: September 20, 2017, 05:26:52 AM
Sports betting is really risky most of the sites you have mentioned have limitations in the amount of money you can win and if you want to withdraw your funds they ask for various verification and finally you don't get anything stick to

Not that "really" risky. It will be "really" risky if you'll bet to the teams that you don't have an idea on how they play and you don't do analysis for each fight. Sports betting is like playing poker, you need to observe the odds, make sure that you can take the risk and if you can't just fold(don't bet at all) if you are not sure of the teams that you'll bet, this how should someone start with sports bet.

i agree with bhadz said because we only spend our money without any clue or anything about the team. its better to place a bets for a sports that we know like football and if we know one team or more, then we can have a chance to win. but before you involve too deep in any of gambling games, my suggestion is don't play too often because you can be an addicting person in gambling.

You can also try out some casino's that are offering play money if you are not sure of it. And well your experience will be your mentor once you are starting to gamble with sports bet. Things will just be learned base on what you are doing and suddenly you'll become a risk taker when you want to try some more. I went through to that feeling when I was still new and wants to learn more about sports betting.

3638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we still gambling while we always lose? on: September 20, 2017, 04:05:07 AM
Because were trying to win but we ended up in loosing. But for me I enjoy playing gambling since from the start I enter gambling I can say that I have a positive profit.

We are trying hard, even it takes a life time to win we have the heart to keep on pushing our hope that we'll win in the end. Gamblers that says they are having positive profit are very rare and few so you are one of those gamblers that are very lucky when they gamble. And it's a good attitude that when you lose, you are just enjoying your bets and you'll not depend on your emotion when you lose.

Having positive mind is good to help us stay positive even if we lose so we wont keep playing like crazy people. If we want to enjoy our bet then we must play for fun and not for profit. If we keep playing for profit then we wont really enjoy playing . We will focus on trying to win and I wont really call that as having fun, we wont be able to have fun like that

Being positive isn't applicable when you had lost for 5 consecutive times. We are totally out of our minds when we keep on saying that we must be positive and we should be able to keep gambling because we know that we'll win. Gambling is hard to predict, even there's a will for the gambler that there will be the time that you'll win but if you're destined to lose, you'll lose.
3639  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pacquiao vs. Horn - REMATCH! on: September 20, 2017, 03:54:03 AM
The very prime of Pacquaio is over his body is old he should retire now, he is very rich and a senator nothing more to prove. I heard he will plan to run for vice president in the Philippines better he retires and focus on politics to focus of helping his people. He must accept he was defeated by younger opponent Horn like Pacquiao VS Barerra before.

Everyone is talking about his retirement and I think Manny is aware of it and the love of his life wants him to retire too. I don't know if those rumors that are coming out for his presidency is for real, who knows? He got fame and money he has a chance but voters will still have the decision if they want to vote him as president just because his a well known boxer or he got what it takes to be a father of a country.
Pacquiao as a president seems to be a bit of a stretch for me. Even if he is popular, it takes more that to lead and govern a nation of over 100 million. He isn’t even a great senator and many are doubting if he is even qualified as a public official. There’s no doubt that he has good intentions in helping his country men but it’s gonna take more than that to solve the problems that’s been plaguing the Philippines for many decades now. If you ask me, he should just stick to boxing or become an ambassador for sports or wherever he could make a signifant change.

Tried to research some of his charity works and most of them aren't in the main stream. Well guys we are getting far from Horn vs. Pacquiao match now to his political ambition. We should be in the politics and society talking about Pacquiao's ambition or rumors about his run for higher positions. But if you are saying that he isn't a great senator, I will not agree on it. He's been actively joining investigations and sharing his point of views regarding the cases they are investigating.
3640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: September 20, 2017, 03:42:40 AM
Experiences are quite important in gambling. History used to repeat many times before it's broken. So make a good research about history head to head and guess what gonna happen is not a bad ideal. In e-sport, experiences are specially important, imaging that some underdogs team always win when they against the same team many times. So experience gonna help you make a huge profit or stay away from losing safe bet.

You are specifying about analysis and not experience. Analysis with the experiences of those underdog teams and other tier 1-3 teams, I'm talking about e-sports betting. And you're right, experience will help us to make huge profit to stay away in a bet if we have an experience that the said teams aren't that good to bet. In some point, experience is good help in different ways.
