1. They can use more secured ways to identify the real identity of their customer, the best thing to do here, aside from valid ID is they should add "take a selfie" on identity process.
2. They can also set a time limit of playing for a player, give notification if this would be their last game anymore for today.
3. Set a notification showing how long they've been playing.

With these kind of features, they might actually help or lessen the addiction of a gambler.
for the first, I do not agree if you have to identify customers using selfies, while some gamblers want to remain anonymous without anyone knowing when gambling. we are talking about crypto casinos which most people prefer to gamble anonymously but if this feature is enabled it will take away the anonymity of crypto gambling.
secondly, it seems that casinos cannot implement this feature because casinos cannot limit the freedom of gamblers to gamble at any time and how long they will gamble and casinos only provide a place to gamble without any restrictions.

I'm not sure if this feature can help reduce gambling addicts while gambling companies want to benefit from their customers who in reality cannot implement such features.

for me the only ones who can reduce gambling addiction are those who can control themselves, not the casino.

If you ask me they punished Juventus enough because after they lost the points in Serie A they had a bad atmosphere their team and I think because of this bad atmosphere they had, they lose many points when they could have better performance that's why I think banning them for years in companions league is a lot.
on the other hand it is not only a matter of punishment that will be imposed on the Juventus team but the threat from Inter also puts pressure on the mentality of the Juventus players which makes the players' performance decrease or lack confidence. we can see from the points of the two teams between Juventus and Inter that the difference is only 3 points and it is enough for Inter to beat their opponent in 1 match to take Juventus' position.
it is very sad the situation that the Juventus team has to accept at this time which can affect the future of this team itself.

Disappointing way to finish the season, Arsenal gave everything from the start of the season and were one of the favorites to win the league this season, too bad they are finishing the season without any trophy. Arteta made a huge mistake letting the team drop out of the Europa league competition to focus on the premier league, probably they could still be playing in the Europa league and try featuring in the finals.
Right. It's very disappointing. They have struggled to survive in the first place since the season started even a few weeks ago. But at the end of the day they have to give up the title again to be won by Manchester City.

Mikel Arteta is a talented coach and actually he has done his best for Arsenal. But in the middle of the season when Arsenal was ranked first with quite a lot of points difference at that time maybe all of us were optimistic that Arsenal would win a trophy for this season. So at that time when Arsenal seemed to give up their place in the Europa League it still looked like things would be fine. But now when looking at the fact that it seems Arsenal will not win a trophy this season. so indeed I also thought that it would be better if at that time Arsenal continued to struggle in the European league. But Arsenal's defeat in the Europa League could not be avoided because at that time they lost on penalties with Sporting.
simply put, it's not the time for Arsenal to get a trophy or a title yet because it's too early to be able to beat Man City's performance, which has drastically increased and is much, much stronger. even though Arteta as an Arsenal coach has a lot of experience, but all of that is not comparable to the experience that has been brought by Pep Guardiola who has succeeded in bringing Man City to the top of the UCL semifinals.
but for me it's not a problem about the coach but the performance of the players themselves. Arsenal have had a decline in the performance of their players whereas Man City has simultaneously improved and has Haaland who can always score to bring City to the top of the standings.

from the stories I read you compare several games from the number of wins you get. it's a bit of a misunderstanding and actually the best game depends on each person who chooses the type of game.
I mean usually people will choose a slot game that has a higher RTP thinking it will be the best slot game. on the other hand, there are those who look at the volatility, there are medium and very high ones that determine the outcome of a win, but all of that will still depend on each other's luck.

to be honest, as long as I play slots compared to Sweet Bonanza I prefer Gates Of Olympus or Starlight Princess even though the maximum win is only 5000x but it's quite easy to reach maxwin like I got a few weeks ago.
or it would be better for you to come here to see other people's experiences to consider what game you will play after seeing the experience stories shared by several people. thread created by slot master @mu_enrico

It seems like they are intentionally not taking the league seriously, yet even with their poor performances, Real Madrid doesn't seem too bad in the standings, as evidenced by their ability to still sit at the top 2 position in the table.
They were taking the league seriously, but Barcelona were better than them in La Liga this season and that is why they won it, the La Liga is gone now, so Madrid has to try and win the champions league to make it two trophies this season, because they have already won the copa del rey. Many people wrongly say Madrid were not interested in the La Liga, surely they were, they only lost that interest when they found out they cannot win it, and that is what every team does, you go for the trophy that you can win, not the one that is lost.
that's right, I like your thinking because it's true that it doesn't mean giving up the title in La Liga but Real Madrid will take the title from a league that is still quite easy to achieve, such as the UCL and the Copa del Rey, which was achieved by getting a trophy and after this Real Madrid's goal is to win the UCL title. After winning the UCL title, Real Madrid will definitely maintain second place in La Liga and we can see that Real Madrid in La Liga has started to improve its performance with 71 points and Barcelona 85.
maybe if later after the UCL is over and Barcelona suffers a decline in performance I'm sure Real Madrid will be able to catch up with Barcelona points even though the chances are very small but there's nothing wrong with Real Madrid also going after the La Liga title.
3866  Economy / Gambling / Re: Slot Educational Parade on: May 15, 2023, 11:08:06 AM

SOURCE--

in the video, it is not explained which region (city) it comes from but it is clear that the parade is from my country, in the parade it is clear what slot players get when they play from the "first" month (still motorbikes are expensive) to month "fourth" (ugly motorcycle).

without direct education by the central and local governments to young people and the general public, I think this kind of parade is not effective enough, it's even obvious, the parade is the initiative of the private community in the area.

do you think, a parade like this will be effective in reducing the level of gambling addiction?
not sure if that will discourage gambling addicts or even cause someone who doesn't know about slots to know about slots out of curiosity what slot games are. in the video is not very complete so that it makes the pros and cons that make people think negatively and even positively.
from the negative side there are good motorbikes in the first month, now with people who don't know how slot gambling works they will think it's easy to get money in 1 month getting a good motorbike after that it will stop after getting what you want.
from the positive side, maybe after the parade, the dangers of gambling (if any) will be explained.

the reason I say this is because I understand your country prohibits various types of gambling and if the parade is carried out without any clarity about all of it, it is just like indirect advertising.
we take the example of cigarettes which are always advertised about the dangers of smoking but the increase in smokers is increasing because it is increasingly known by everyone.

With Juventus/Draw are likely going to be happened as well because Juventus is surely having better defence and their chances are also bright to win or go into extra time or penalties as well any result is possible in this game with most chances we will have this match under 2.5 as well.
In this UEFA Europa League match, of course, between Sevilla and Juventus, they reinforce each other's defense which has a great chance of a draw. but on the other hand there are surprises in every game and Sevilla looks to dominate the upcoming matches as the performance of Sevilla players is stronger than Juventus.
I said according to my own predictions even though it looks strong but Juventus in the Italian league is not too strong for me when I see every Juventus match.
and from the second leg semifinal match I will choose the 2 options Sevilla or draw and both teams to score. 2 choices that I have to choose one and it's safer for both teams to score.

Despite their loss in this match, Espanyol can put up a very tight fight. They did lose in possession, but they could take advantage when Barcelona lost the ball. Espanyol themselves are targeting victory in this match to increase their chances of remaining in the highest caste of Spanish football. 4 games remaining now and they are still 4 points behind the team that is in the safety margin of the relegation zone. Espanyol need 4 wins and hope that the team in front of them is on a losing streak.
yesterday's match Espanyol gave a very good performance to give resistance even though it ended in defeat. however Barcelona is a strong team standing at the top of the standings while Espanyol was able to score 2 scores even though it was difficult to beat Barcelona but I recognize the strength of Espanyol's performance. as we saw Espanyol in the second half were able to steal to score 2 goals when Barcelona momentarily lost control of the ball which Puado and Joselu were able to take advantage of to get the score.
with the remaining matches, it is difficult for Espanyol to add points, while Espanyol must compete against a top team which is indirectly very difficult to beat.

Bayern Munich team has great potential to secure the Bundesliga title. I don't see any team big enough to compete with Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. However, Dortmund can hold off Bayern Munich in some great fashion.
The history of the Bundesliga position table from the 2012/2013 season to 2021/2022, Bayern Munich has always been at the top of the standings until the end of the season by lifting the trophy.
So, this season the Bundesliga competition is a little interesting because Bayern Munich, which still leads the standings, is only 1 point ahead of Dortmund and Dortmund still has a chance to break the history of the Bundesliga trophy held by Bayern Munich.
overall this season the Bundesliga standings table is very tight that between Bayern Munich and Dortmund both want to reach the top of the standings and until now Bayern Munich has not been able to add more points and thus Dortmund also don't want to be too far behind.
like yesterday's match when Bayern Munich beat their opponent and Dortmund also did not want to miss having to beat their opponent. so the position of these two top teams is very interesting when Dortmund always follows what Bayern Munich has gotten.

but if you look at the history of experience, I think Tuchel has a way to bring Bayern Munich to stay at the top of the standings.

almost everyone says the best time zone for placing sports bets is when according to the match schedule that has been determined for each country. to be honest, I myself also place football sports bets, usually according to a set schedule, for example the match takes place at night (my country) then I will place a bet at that time too.
so I agree with the answers of some people here who say betting according to the hours of each country.
3871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: May 15, 2023, 07:17:56 AM
why need to gamble with friends if we are talking online betting ? not unless you are talking about local gambling or casino houses then that is another stories to tell.
I am stating arguments that can be applied to both land-based and online gambling. have you ever had online gambling experience with your friends or even used joint money to gamble? or the experience of going to a land-based gambling establishment with friends after losing which evokes emotion when friends give misleading persuasion after which you get emotional and blame. have you experienced this?

then you are stupid to listen , who can be a person like that to gamble and listen when a friend tell him that he will win>?
is he holding a mirror ball? lol.
this is not about stupidity but more about the emotional situation when a loss at gambling is caused by a friend. on the other hand, it's not because your friend is holding a mirror ball, but have you ever had fun at gambling, whether online or in a land casino, with your friends and at that time your friends wanted to prank you, but you took the lose you got seriously?

lol, your money is your responsibilities , you must decide your own and even if friends told you still you have to decide .
I appreciate your argument but experience says otherwise

The truth is that every single game in a casino has higher odds for the house to win, so eventually the gambler will lose everything to the house.
so, in this case, almost all casino games, not just slot games, have a bigger chance of winning and beating every customer. so there is no other way to avoid these things because gambling companies are designed to make a profit.
some people may deny statements like this, but the fact is that no gambler really wins at casino games except for 2 factors, namely luck or the gambler is the company's bookie himself.

on another issue, even though there are gamblers who win big from casino games including slot games, if it is calculated from the total loss, I am sure it will not be equal and in the end the house will still win.

Quote from: Pokapoka124
Manchester City are at the edge of lifting the league trophy after Arsenal lost to Brighton today, now a win in their next game to Brighton will put the trophy in their hands for the third time in a role. Arsenal fans will be so disappointed with the results of today’s game. The Premier league is finally over, this loss to Brighton just gave Manchester City a clear part to league victory. What can I say Arsenal always find a way to disappoint their fans.

Manchester city really prove to people that they have what it takes to win this premier league title again because they were able to defeated their opponent 3-0 to have a long gap that will make people to conclude that Arsenal don't have any opportunity to win this title. Many people predicted for the favour of Arsenal to defeat Brighton 3-0, because they believed that Arsenal know how to use home advantage to play their opponent but Brighton never allow such thing to happen than to turned the match in the second half to defeated Arsenal 3-0 without allow them to score a single goal from the match. Arsenal coach was not happy the way his team was defeated in this match, because his hope is that they will win the match to be in a good position to win this season title.

I admit that yesterday's game Man City had a very strong performance even from the previous few matches Man City managed to reach the top of the standings and dominate points to provide a little distance from Arsenal and Pep Guardiola's strategy to be number 1 in the premier league standings was very good and I think this is just a precaution if later it doesn't qualify for the UCL final. Man City still has pride in being the leader of the premier league.
on the other hand Arsenal were very sad when they were humiliated by Brighton at home to Arsenal with a score of 0-3 and a little regretted betting on Arsenal with my prediction that at least the score could be 2-0 or 2-1 but it turned out not according to my prediction Arsenal had a drop in performance after Man City topped the standings.

Actually it is a bit possible but then they should need to have a little bit bigger investment but anyway it will not guarantee them that if they will invest a little bit bigger it will give them big return or they will get that 100$ , people who pushes their limit to get that daily amount tend to lose more. And I agree he needs to get a job so he can get that amount.
but unfortunately what the OP meant is a steady income from gambling so it is very unlikely that the OP has to invest while what the OP wants is an income of $100 every day from gambling.
well, in this case, in gambling and in trading, there is no guarantee of profits every day, even if it's impossible unless you are a professional gambler or a reliable trader.

There are two matches in the Bundesliga today. Leipzig - Werder Bremen and Stuttgart - Bayer Leverkusen matches will be played. There are really two critical matches. All teams are doing fine calculations at the moment. Some teams are struggling to qualify for European cups. Some teams are struggling to stay in the league. We can encounter a lot of surprise results in such matches. I usually prefer not to bet on such matches. When I have to bet on matches like this, I usually bet that both teams will score. Still, I see Leipzig as favorites against Werder Bremen in today's match. Because I think they will succeed in being in the Champions League next season.
today's match that you mentioned even though it can be predicted that Leipzig and Leverkusen have a greater chance of winning because Bremen and Stuttgart are teams that are far worse and very profitable to take part in betting on today's match. but I appreciate you, maybe some people have their own predictions, but I myself prefer the underdog.

you can experience yourself in this new game which is more interesting although it is a bit difficult to get a big multiplier but if pragmatic likes you when you come back to the slot game maybe you will be awarded a big multiplier. Cheesy

yes, and especially Hacksaw which is famous for its very high volatility but huge multiplier if lucky. I also think so, for example Hacksaw can be like Pragmatic, maybe there will be more enthusiasts. but that seems impossible considering Hacksaw is a rich gambler's game  Grin

PSG secured an impressive 5-0 win that would seal their title. PSG are far ahead in the points table due to their good performance in the match. PSG players showed enough good play to win the match. Ashraf HaKim in particular played well enough and was later sent off with a red card for a foul. And Kylian Mbappe's performance was very attacking, he scored two goals in the match, had a chance to score a hat-trick but unfortunately couldn't. PSG is at the top of the points table with 81 points. If they can win the next match the way they have won this match, they will be guaranteed to be champions.
no wonder PSG managed to score 5-0 when playing against Ajaccio. PSG is already guaranteed to be the champion after successfully reaching the top of the standings dominating with more points and it is difficult for other teams to chase.
on the other hand I want to say that PSG's performance is very good without Messi and this proves that PSG doesn't need to waste too much money just for Messi while Mbappe is capable of bringing the PSG team to be champions.

nothing else can be expected from Chelsea this season, as has been said that Chelsea's victory last week cannot be used as a reference that they will do the same thing this week and that was proven when the Chelsea team which had many quality players could not win against a team in the relegation zone in front of their own fans, this is such a shame.
for this season, stop betting on Chelsea team match matches.

while for Nottingham this additional 1 point means a lot and they are now slowly starting to move away from the relegation zone even though the acquisition of several teams at the bottom is quite slim there is a possibility of fierce competition going on until the last week.
it's all because Chelsea's players are so poor with no favourites and perhaps need a transfer of better players in both attack and defence. there really is no hope for Chelsea as long as there are no player transfers that can boost Chelsea's performance.
even though Chlesea will compete with the team that is below it and compete at Chelsea's home ground, I prefer not to bet because of my disappointment in the past when I bet for Chlesea but ended up losing.

Nottingham should really have to compete consistently like this even though they can't beat their opponent at least give a draw in every game to continue to add points and get out of the relegation zone. I prefer a team in the relegation zone that is consistent in every game than having to choose Chelsea.

nowadays with the evolution of technologies, I wonder if someone goes to stay in a distant village they won't have access to a telephone and internet and gambling, it's hard to escape technology to avoid gambling, but it doesn't hurt to try , and it is true that staying away from all this for a long time the person manages to overcome the addiction, but we have to see if it will be a temporary or permanent cure
This will not work, as an example those which are addicted to a specific drug if for some reason they are unable to find it will simply begin to intoxicate themselves with another drug in order to satisfy their addiction, and gambling addiction is the same, even if a person moved into an isolated village with no internet and in which gambling was forbidden, they will still find a way to gamble in that scenario and keep their addiction going, so as you can see an addiction is not something from which you can run, and instead it is something you need to face head on and overcome it with your will.
I have often said that addiction situations are very difficult to recover from when a person does not have complete determination for what they want. I mean when a gambling addict who does not have a strong desire to recover from his addiction, it will be very difficult even if he goes to any country or remote city there will always be a way to gamble on the grounds that there is no intention to recover.

but for gambling addicts who have thought about the best way to choose to heal themselves without gambling, it is enough in a simple way, often consult with a psychologist and ask for family help to always guide them to recover from their addiction.
so, from this problem, as the OP said, we as gamblers who are not yet gambling addicts must seriously understand the side effects of addiction so that we can control every time we want to gamble. always use a positive mindset towards gambling, for example gambling is just a game of luck.
