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.

I don't have more interesting strategies, I just do what I used to do when I play dice games or other similar games. I don't stick to strategies anymore in gambling. I'm more focusing now on how I'll control myself and on how I can handle the best with my bankroll.


Yes, there is no strategy that can guaranteed us to give the winning shot it will be depending on how lucky you are, I guess this strategy always works. Gamble for fun and if you win, you're lucky and if you lose, you enjoyed.

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.

No traps, it's just about the greediness of a gambler. When he's winning and he wants to win more, so he's not stopping and that results to lose. And that's the start of his goal to get again those money because he'll regret that he didn't stop on that time. But worst is happening, he keeps on losing anyway and if that happens, there will be another reason why he gamble and it's now to get back his capital.

We are also doing this with my friends when during weekends and after that when I go home I gamble with online casino's and usually my main reason by that time is changing. And yes, I'm gambling for the profit just like what others are saying and justifying their main purpose of their gambling. I know the risk in making gambling as you seek for profit but this is not my main source of income.

It will be only limited if you will let yourself play those games games that aren't totally requiring so much experience and skills. And as the day goes on, I'm thinking that experience doesn't matter anymore. When you have some strategies and you are using it effectively, you will just disregard your experience. But at the end of the day, you'll still use those experience one day in one of your gambling games and bets.

Yes it did change a lot with my gambling habit and when the price is higher I guess it's better and it is in my favor.


Yes, this is the advantage that I'm talking about, the price of bitcoin is affecting my bets and your example is what I really do.


Not that really high, I'm just adjusting the amount of bitcoin and I'm still depending on the value of USD.

It's always giving us happiness when we are winning. You are right when we are used to it because we are also experiencing losing, we don't get excited much anymore. No reaction, no feeling anymore when we win. And we get more greedy as the day goes by that feeling of happiness is changing into something different and we don't want to lose as soon as possible because we only want to get more money.

I do really find that most of the people that became addicted to gambling are those people that are for the profit and as for the people that are for the games. They are rich enough to make gambling as an addictive hobby, we will not stay in gambling if we don't have a hope that we'll get a good return and profit here and because we did experience that there's more chance to earn in a fast way, we stay. And we are also aware that there's a big chance also that we can lose.

Most of the gamblers are gambling for the profit and not for wasting time and fun only. And it's only with bitcoin gambling but also with fiat gambling, a person is an addicted gambler is simply because he chose to be addicted in gambling and he has a lot of experience that made good life in gambling and he just want to pursue what he think so he became addicted.

You gave me a chill to relax now and this is something not only funny but it's sort of conspiracy. 3 years from now bitcoin will hit $12k? That's a good one I wish that I have 10-20 bitcoins by that time so that I can keep on pursuing my dream to become rich. Anyway thanks for the happy moment with the picture you posted and keep on asking that guy from the future on what will be bitcoin's price on 2025.

Haha this feeling was the best so far that I had read. I have the same feeling before when I was able to win a small amount in the past and I felt like that it won't be gone and I even thought that money is unlimited. But that feeling was temporary and I was wrong in that feeling of mine but that was a very happy feeling and I want to experience that again but it was now different.

Haha that's superstition isn't working for you. I thought that belief is real that when there is a preggy and you gamble on that day after rubber her stomach you'll be lucky on that day. I found this thread funny too, as for the situation and example given at the original post, there's nothing to do with luck and having your girl beside you when you gamble, it's just a coincidence.

No doubt that you are a Golden State Warrior fan right? There's no doubt that they are a powerhouse team and they are good in making team plays. But don't forget their rivalry with Cavaliers, we have now an upgraded Cavs with Derrick Rose and Isaiah Thomas so this is still an exciting season but let's not just stay with these two teams as this league is not only about them.

Try to check out nitrogensports.eu it has e-sports book that you can choose and bet with your favorite team. What e-sports do you bet? I'm interested when someone is talking about e-sports since I'm a gamer and a gambler at the same time. Maybe we do have the same interest and games to bet and we can share our thoughts with each bets.

Edit: I noticed your name "heartstone"   so I'm guessing it's hearthstone?

That's devastating that he lost almost everything he had and good thing that he had a friend(your father) that is willing to assist him. Maybe he's not too good in controlling his emotion and base on what I know we are very hard core gamblers because of our feeling and we are ready to lose everything we've got when we are decided with our move.

I don't think they will "all" shift to bitcoin gambling only, there's no one can know the future of gambling. I'm thinking of these things but possibilities are possibilities and we really don't have an idea if that's going to happen, it may or it may not be. And everything is depending on what will be the demand and the decision of the casino's that operate.

If you do really think that gambling is not for you, try to find some other things or activities that should be for you.


All of us will feel bad if we are wasted and keeps on losing, this is one of the feelings that I don't want to feel when I'm losing.

Set a limit and with this way you have a control to your tokens and you can't lose it all.

Lesson only if you are failing in gambling but there are some positive lessons that you can learn in gambling even if you lose or win. Just be good with the amount you are winning and don't ask for more because that's the start of your trouble when you ask more and you don't stop for that day you know what will be the result.

Seems that everyone loved Dwyane Wade to play together with Lebron James but still there's no news around and everything that are popping out through social media's are just speculations and still considered as an hoax. And the good thing about James he's a versatile player and can adjust with different mates that he have but well let's just move on and wait for some updates.
