any registration and just to put a bet and received your earnings without logging in Onehash is a good site to enjoy.
3802  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you would win a Jackpot what would you do with the money? on: July 24, 2017, 11:39:04 AM
If you would win a large amount suddenly, like a jackpot or a lottery, what would you do with the money? Especially if the money is coming to you suddenly, unexpected, and you were not prepared to win such large amount.

Let's say you would win something like 200 BTC or more,  which I have seen many gambling websites payout from time to time. What would you do with it?

1) You would gamble with it again, trying to multiply the bet, to get even more money
2) You would withdraw the money, and invest it into some financial investment: maybe some cryptocurrency investment, maybe some fiat investment
3) You would spend it:
    A) Buy a car or a house
    B) Spend it on women or wife
    C) Spend it on your kids
4) Donate it to charity
5) Start up a business
6) Hold it in Bitcoin
7) Other

I go for number 5. A wise gambler if win a big money, they need to think first the possible result if they spend in a good way. Because they know that gambling is not a good choice as our source of income instead much better to find another way of business that we have a sure income. For me, I save a money for gambling and if this lose in gambling I spend my whole time for my family and in the new business.
yes i agree for me i will go with the 5 and 6 starting a business is a good way  to make an income  same with the holding of bitcoin because youu will be having a big chance to make more profit in terms of business and holding a bitcoin .than to spend it anywhere like wasting it in things  that not so important.

Number 5 is a good choice. if we have any business in our mind and don't have investment we can try that with this jackpot money. but while using the free money we don't think much, easily we will invest because it is easy money. So be careful before investing in any business once you lost that money you will never get it back.
 


though i didn't win in a gambling but 5 and 6 for me would be a better way to continue enjoying such earnings, me when i did got some lucky day with my trading activity the money that i earned i did open a small business and now i'm enjoying a day to day profits.
3803  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it worth using bitcoins anymore for gambling ? on: July 23, 2017, 12:41:14 PM
If we interested to play anonymously than bitcoin always will be our first choice for betting. I think price is increasing so high so it's time to think about our strategy what we are losing there but if we compare bet amount is fiat before throwing our money there and it is just for fun than nothing wrong to place bets with bitcoin.
yes mate before we place our bets its better to convert it into fiat so we can calculate it much better and we will be able to adjust as bitcoin value
really jumping its very needed to make sure that your bets are according to the value that you are willing to risk, gamblers really loving using bitcoin
as they really can hide their personalities.
3804  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to do Gambling in bitcoin markets? on: July 23, 2017, 12:31:05 PM
This are two different markets they should be approached with different strategies . Gambling is gambling and trading Bitcoin is a different thing all together. Yes
He does mean about a binary option type of game which you do guess the movement price of bitcoin either would be going up or down but still i do consider this thing as gamble if you dont really know how to see or know the price movement of bitcoin which we know its really difficult to guess but there are people who are really good on binary options trading. Ive known secondstrade i dont know if its still operating as of now.
gogooption also have this game and like you for me its really difficult to guess what will be the certain movements as bitcoin always have its own
fluctuations better to understand what influence really affecting the value or what particular news will be discuss to hype the price.
3805  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: July 23, 2017, 10:34:09 AM
So Kyrie Irving preferred Spurs as his destination. It's clearly that his reason wasn't to become a face of the franchise nor mvp title. I guess he want's more ring and maybe he thinks that he can't get it anymore at Cavs or maybe he wants a teammate that isn't acting like he is the boss.
that's right i think kyrie doesn't want to have someone who will control him inside lebron act like a boss and he and irving can't connect anymore
but sure thing if irving will move to san antonio it will be a big addition to this franchise they will be a good contender now from the west side.
3806  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: July 22, 2017, 07:22:30 AM
Previously, I feel little bit of "ashamed". But then I ask myself? Why become ashamed ? I'm not doing anything wrong to other people and besides it's my life, it's my decision so none can ever question that. I gamble just for fun and I do not gamble everyday. Is it wrong to have fun ? No.Gambling is not my priority, I know my limit. when we heard gambling we think it is bad but not all gambling is bad. Casinos are approved by the government as well as lotto and earn taxes that they can use to improve their community.

That is right, being a gambler doesn't mean you are a criminal, it just proves that you are being true to yourself, also you are just having fun so there is nothing wrong with it.
most of the people I know or sorround in my places are judgemental, they judge people based on what they are doing and not on why do they do it. It is just sad how people nowadays are like these.

Sometimes it's not about people being judgemental though. A person who enjoys gambling but has his religion or the society he belongs to prohibiting gambling, there would always be that feeling of shame or guilt whenever he goes against the rules just because he wants to gamble. Not everyone of us are allowed by our religions and beliefs and i think going against those two just to gamble would.make a person feel shameful among his peers.

Correct. If we ever involved religion here, you will always felt shameful or have a guilt feeling when you gamble. I don't know that gambler will go to an extent to hide his addiction so that the religion denomination he/she belongs will not know it, otherwise they will kick them for involving themselves in gambling which is against most of the religious sect around the world. So its either for you to keep away from gambling for good, or just hide your gambling addiction which will be very difficult to do.
difficult since the main thing inside your mind is how to win with your gambling activity so even religion if you are not to serious to respect your belief will not except your activity, since gambling in most religious countries really not accepted that's why feeling guilt or shameful has been felt by the
gamblers.
3807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: July 22, 2017, 07:19:08 AM
Why is someone get addicted to gambling once he gamble ?
Well, there are many reason why we became addicted on gambling. The one is, they let you win in the first try so that they can encourage you to play again and when you play a little longer you'll gradually lose that will cause you to frustrate. And this is the beginning of addiction, you will tend to play again because you wanted to retrieve your losses.
that's the bad thing when you get engage with so much appreciation with your first try, winning some good money and allow yourself  to keep trying your luck since you think that its easy to repeat what you already achieve very deceitful coming from the bookers/gambling site owners, maybe assessing your
capability to stop before even starting to play would be much needed.
3808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: July 22, 2017, 06:58:50 AM
I think that trade is not like gambling, because with the acquisition of experience and knowledge it is possible to consistently receive a good income unlike gambling which is based only on luck.
For me too. Gambling is never the same as trading unless trader do not know how to trade. Without skills and techniques, trading can be considered as gambling. However, if you have obtained a good knowledge about this field, trading will become the profitable activity and according to what I have experienced, most of trading experts know how to make money with trading
proccess , yes in trading there is a lot of process you should go for .

and mostly people who trading for the first time just want an instant profit without huge sacrifice and efforts in it. and gambling give them something that they want, no wonder in the end people do trade with gambling style.
correct those newcomers thinks that trading is just like a gamble for a day if the value increase they sell it right away and thinks that they already earn not
taking some time to think what influence the moves because if you know how crypto works big gain can be achieve even x100 happen in some crypto just
know the possibilities.
3809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: July 21, 2017, 03:27:52 AM
Poeple nowadays are really crack head they don't listen to other advices they will do what they want follow they want to follow and this is how they lose because of comeback they chasing what their already loss and can't move on i know it is really hard to accept when we loss our money into gambling if you don't want that feeling then never to gambling. QUIT find a job find another hobbies thats it.
Then we can't blane them let them do what they decided atleast there were some good advices for tgem that incase they will realize after suffering from a lose in playing too much .Giving up is not easy and there is no easy way also to earn money.
experience would definitely the best teacher for those gamblers who already loses their entire investment already learned from that mistake and some
of them would go far to the point of doing evil things to continue their activity but with those you still value life they will try harder to quit and never
to commit same mistake again.
3810  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are? When will you stop and withdrawn? on: July 21, 2017, 03:17:58 AM
Not everyone is greedy i have gambled 3 times till now and cashed out always after i achieved 20% of profit or sometimes i was able to get a bit more profit. The moment i lose 3 bets continuously i understand that the site won't allow me to make profits now so i stop gambling if anyone sees these signs stop don't start doubling your bet to cover up previous loses this is just a way sites purposely want you to panic and lose your money

You just gamble for three times but you achieved and cashed out always 20 percent of profit? that was amazing? But what I am confused is that you said sometimes means that you are playing more than 3 now. That is a world feat if you are just playing three times in your life and got that profit in that times.
I dont know what he mean about 3x--- 3x bets or 3x gambling session??? Knowing that if you do play gambling you would definitely make some many bets then supposed to be its 3x session of playing gambling of his entire life? That was amazing and do really have a strong control on his self not only that he did able to get 20% or more on his money which would really make him as a winner. What a lucky guy.
this guy knows how to limit himself maybe he just using this sign to control his emotions so he will able to avoid losing his entire bankroll,
its really a good thing to do even its not relevant or no proven proof that this would be effective but doing this would help to lessen our
risk inside gambling.
3811  Economy / Speculation / Re: where are you keeping your coins (1 aug) on: July 20, 2017, 06:49:22 AM
During the periods of crisis, cash is king.

Partly. In no way, shape, or form is it recommended to liquidate your entire holdings to fiat. I personally won't ever liquidate any of my holdings just to lower my overall risk exposure in case of a looming threat, but I definitely understand that it might be helpful for others. I like to keep my complete stash in tact. In order to benefit from a potentially badly tanked price, I just make sure I have always enough fiat on hand. My main goal is to accumulate, and not risk buying back my coins at higher levels.
if all of us have a perceptions like this about bitcoin, i think we won't see anymore dumped to happen even if fork or split will happen as we all knew that time will come and the value will rise back with or without the split, long term goal, treat it as an investment for our future and see what will the future will
bring us after everything was settled.
3812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mayweather Vs McGregor: Info and prediction thread on: July 20, 2017, 06:44:23 AM
I don't agree on it being the biggest fight, I could think of a huge list of bigger fights between actual opponents rather than this WWE like game, How can a MMA fighter do a boxing match with someone who is so good at Boxing? This match is an offense to boxing and just proves how anything can happen for money/

I consider this as the biggest fight on our time.

And right now they are completely full force on promoting their fight. I don't know if their moves on stage are just scripted.

It's part of the business.
Whatever it is we already know this fight happens because of money and it could be a scripted fight just to entertain tha fans but I hope it will really happen because I would love to see for the first time an entertaining fight of mayweather.

This is what I've been thinking all the time, everything was staged.

And I'm basing on how they are acting when they are infront of the people during their presscon.

But this is exciting because they are making some noise.
I also believe this was staged. This is like Pacquiao vs Mayweather all over again.
Similar to the pacquiao vs mayweather, they had plenty of drama before they agreed to a fight.
Now this is happening again, and it seems like it is just another one of those mega hyped fights that may not live to expectations.
mayweather always wants to be treated as an important fighter and he loves the hype, so for sure a boring game again coming out from him
he will cover and run the way he fight pacquiao before he won't be aiming to K.O McGregor but just to make sure he will get a lots of money
and he will still in his edge moving away from this game.

and which pool is good for 1.2 tb? Thanks community

For the moment I prefer http://pool.burstmining.club:8124/ but don't expect to much with only 1.2TB for Burst.
I have sold most of my HDDs and stay only with 14,5TB for the moment. The past daily payments have been in range 25-120 Burst

We also mine with this pool and currently we mine with 23TB and get around 50 to 150 Burst per day and the average for mining a block is around 7 to 10 days for us with this rig. This pool is almost at 800 miners so it is getting difficult to mine Burst now.
with the current value are you still getting good profits or you are in a break even status? still im not done trying setting up my mining system
as i only got 2TB and im not sure if its still getting somewhere to mine with burst or the difficulty will not allowed me to earn that much.
3815  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][PSB] Pesobit, the currency for remittances and international cooperation on: July 20, 2017, 02:58:08 AM
For all Pesobit users with coin stuck at Yobit: right now someone (could be Yobit themselves) is buying Pesobit at a price much higher than actual new fork market at C-Cex.

Sell your Pesobit which are stuck at Yobit, send BTC to C-Cex, buy 2X more PSB there on the right fork.

This is not an arbitrage trading opportunity: I'm not telling people to send new PSB to Yobit! If you send Pesobit to a deposit address at Yobit, it would make your coin disappear and be lost, because they are still on the wrong fork.  Just take advantage of this temporary situation to get out of Yobit.

PS. Don't leave coin at exchanges...

Hello, I would like if you would get PSB listed on Cryptopia. It's a fast growing exchange and would work with you. It's ~1 BTC to do it. Something to think about Wink
better to take time to back read this thread mate cryptopia was already a history from this coin take your time to check what's the reason why
psb got delisted from that exchange maybe dev needs to aim much bigger exchange like trex and polo to really hype the value of this coin
again.
3816  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Your Gambling Site(s) SegWit Ready? on: July 20, 2017, 02:54:11 AM
It is in the interest of the exchanges to declare that they will honor the coins that their users are entitled with in case there is a hard fork after August 1. This will encourage the users to not withdraw their bitcoins and it shows that the owners of the exchanges care of what the market and the users think.

Gambling sites should do the same if they do not want to get their service disrupted.
yeah they should follow this in order to avoid gamblers to withdraw their funds inside their wallets, as mention above if exchange can deal and take care of this issue better also for the house to make necessary moves to take care of their players, its a win win situation still players will stay and the wallet will
be take care of the owners.

that's a good pick from the Pelicans with davis and cousins, rondo can build a good chemistry with this two superstars just wanted to see holiday

3818  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you would win a Jackpot what would you do with the money? on: July 20, 2017, 02:15:14 AM
If I win a jackpot, I will create a business using it probably going to create a gambling sit and I will invest some of my coin, I dont want to spend my money on something useless, I want to used my money to earn more money

Having a gambling site guarantees earning since there are lots of gambler whose using it now. But it takes lots of effort on proving that the site is legit and capable. But having bussiness will be a very good decision if have money.
better to think twice if you prefer to create your own gambling site since there's a lots of things that's needed to consider, gambling site or bookies really got a lots of chances to earn good amount of money if you create it correctly and manage it accordingly though there's already a lots of competitions around you need to create uniqueness and very attractive designs.
3819  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Superstition on: July 19, 2017, 06:13:35 AM
I also have my own superstition when it comes to gambling, I usually keep a lucky coin on my shoe before starting to gamble and also I make sure I wear my lucky socks.

So what's the final result? Does it make you win every time if you follow this superstition? I don't think that it would really help you in winning as it will depend only on luck as I don't have any superstition when I gamble as I believe in reality and reality is that if I am lucky I will win or else not.
I'm sure no one will win everytime even you are lucky enough, being superstitious will only give us an encouragement to gamble but it does really increase or improve our chances of winning. We will win sometimes but that's only because we are lucky and when we think its because of being superstitious we jus try to fool ourselves.
perfectly said mate, its really not because we are superstitious we gain that winnings but because we are just lucky for that day and we did win
so many beliefs but we cant control that as we knew different personality of every people around and some of them really believes from this such
practice.

I am a big fan of cricket and for the same reason I prefer only to gamble on cricket as I have good knowledge about the game so it makes easier for me to predict the match results and so far most of the times I have won some money whenever I bet on cricket.
that's good maximizing your knowledge and allowing your good assessment to bring you some decent earnings, me i'm focus now with local
basketball that will be starting in our country since that also my advantage knowing what particular event that influence the winning capability
of such teams.
