To win several tens of millions of dollars, you don't always need to be a professional gambler. Sometimes it's enough for you to get very lucky once. You can read about the history of winning the jackpot by Cynthia Jay at the Palace Station casino. If you search the Internet for information about such winnings, you will find many similar jackpot wins.

I guess some of us already got that luck. Yes, we only need to have the luck to win. Sometimes, you play gambling without thinking about win or lose. But suddenly, your luck comes beside you, and boom, you see you are the new winner, and you win a lot of money from gambling. I am sure at that time, you will not believe it, and it is real. I am sure that much other news about such winnings, especially for some people who win a big jackpot. But some people who win that such big money prefer to hide from the public because that can be risky if a bad guy knows that they win a lot of money from gambling.

Winnings of huge jackpots completely depends on luck. This kind of story with winning huge amounts of money is the best way to encourage other players to try their luck in the casino. The drawing of the jackpots was invented by a very smart man.  Wink
I think that those who won large sums of money should hide first of all from relatives than from bandits).

Johhny is your own individual opinion.

This is math and statistics, not my opinion.  Angry
compared to other probabilities in poker this one is pretty high, so going "all in" it's not so wise decision. I think EV will be positive at least, but if you're playing in tournament and not for long distance, then it's as i said - not good decision.

Compared to what other probabilities? With a piano flash? Which have 0.001 probabilities? In poker without risk not to win and if I have a 95% chance to win, I will not miss it. Of course you make your own decisions, your right I do not dispute. However, I don't think that a 5% chance is a high probability.
403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Probability on: December 04, 2020, 09:40:04 PM
I've seen many times how on three handouts of cards to the enemy fell all the necessary cards. Similarly, I was often lucky. However, even according to statistics 5% is a very small probability. Can you call the probability low only when it is 0%?

No, but i'' say in the third time: 5 % for Texas Holdem is enough high prob. That means that in average 1 of 20 every poker distribution you will get such combo. In your situation that means that 1 of 20 such situations (3 one suite card on table on River) the opponent will get two needed cards for flush. And if you will everytime go all in, this is the chance that your expected value of this 20 games will be negative (but here i'm not sure).

Johhny is your own individual opinion. For me personally, the chance of 5% is small. You can ask other people. When there are 4 cards of the same suit on the River, then of course the chance that someone will have a missing card is extremely high, but when two cards of the same suit are missing, I consider this chance small and am not afraid to play against such cards.

I just want you peoples' opinions as it might help before choosing a club to stake good bet. I have tried live games but I have lost money from the online game, you will think the club you chose will win but later the opposite will happen. I later have to leave live matches to only stake on prematches which I believe would be better to earn, but still I am not profiting from gambling. I make use of bet predicting sites but yet they have proven to be not reliable.

What can I do now?

Is there any good bet predicting site you know that can help?

To start with, you need to start having a good understanding of the league and the teams you plan to bet on. You should examine each player, his strengths or weaknesses. You need to know as much information as possible about past matches between these teams. Only knowledge allows you to assess the chances of winning a match. So you need to get them. And the most important thing is that you should like to study information about soccer and bet on it.

I am sure not many people can win much money in gambling, especially for that such amount. If he can win that much money, he is a very lucky and gifted gambler because to win small or medium money will need luck and effort, and sometimes we can lose some money before we can win.

Yes, that is possible to win that amount of money, but the probabilities will not too big. The rest will get their loss without a chance to recover their loss or even win a lot of money. But perhaps, a gambler can win for a total of that amount in a year, but to get a big winning will need big luck.

I guess they should not be alarmed by the increase in numbers of people who patronized gambling just because of the projected gambling activity in the 3rd quarter but on my end enhancing their regulations for the welfare of the citizen towards gambling is not bad at all.

If people will continue to sit at home, then the flow of money into online casinos will continue to grow. However, countries are unlikely to be able to limit the losses of their citizens. It is possible to establish certain rules for casinos located in the country. However, there are many other casinos around the world that are not obliged to comply with the decisions of the government of the same France.

5 % it's too high chance man

Are you laughing, Johnny? 5% is a high probability?

As i said, for poker combos it's enough high prob. For example, the closest probability to this is to get three of a kind. And to get such combo doesn't look something "beyond my imagination", it's often you can lose to such combo. So in your situation it was very likely to get such outcome.

In poker there is a place for luck and you can lose quite often with a strong hand. I've seen many times how on three handouts of cards to the enemy fell all the necessary cards. Similarly, I was often lucky. However, even according to statistics 5% is a very small probability. Can you call the probability low only when it is 0%?

There are many great casinos in the gambling section and you could try all of them to find something interesting for you. Some gambling sites have a few dozen varieties of  games in the slots. Each of them is interesting in its own way.
You would say which direction you are interested in, it would give a more accurate answer.

We can choose any of them independently and it's up to you how to deal with their games as long as you knew what strategies will be effective in order for us to win. To give further suggestions if OP doesn't state what's he's interested of, I can suggest dice games that are easy and don't need much skills. Also slot games which you can randomly play by machines, but of course it's by lucky picks that you'll able to catch a good wins. Don't choose card games because that really need more effort and skills as well.

The OP did not specify what games he is interested, but he pointed out that he was tired of dice and slot machines. And if the machines can come up with a great many different games that can diversify the pastime. Then with the game of dice it is difficult to come up with something new and diverse that will distinguish one online casino from another.

it's no surprise that gambling activity in France is recovering. many people stay home and use online casinos for fun or for earning some money. I think that such situation is similar to some other european countries.

Now the amount of money spent at online casinos is growing everywhere. And there's really nothing surprising here. Many people have stayed at home and they need to entertain themselves. Some people need to find new ways to make money.
The problem of excessive spending of money in online casinos is already interested in Belgium, Britain and now in France. So the authorities are looking for ways to protect their citizens from excessive losses.
411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Non-Standard Casino Games on: December 02, 2020, 07:18:54 PM
I have to admit, I'm not a rather actively involved in online gaming, but well, curiosity didn't give me peace of mind, so I decided to try out what it feels like to play at different online casinos and what games they have. What I've noticed is that sometimes 'standard' becomes boring and at some point, dice, roulette or slots can feel somewhat monotonous.

What unusual and non-standard games did you play? What are the online casinos offering something unique and fresh?
(I plan to make a consolidated list with all the suggestions you post in this thread.)

France really sets an example for other countries alike. I do think the countries where the gambling is open and regulated are going to recover faster as compared to the others since they are generating immense revenue for the government and at the same time the players also have a lot to choose from.


I do not understand how the French government can regulate online casinos in their country. Any campaign can open an online casino in a country that does not comply with French law and players from France will be able to play there. Of course, it is possible at the level of national providers to prohibit access to foreign gambling sites, but using VPN citizens will still be able to play there.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Probability on: December 01, 2020, 04:16:40 PM
These mind games are useless I guess when you are playing online poker but because I am not so good at poker and I hardly play but in real life I play these card games a lot.


Yeah frequently playing with the same players does help in understanding the behavior and nature of your opponent.

There are people at PokerStars who have been playing in major championships there for many years. Many of them have played with each other more than once. Professional players usually use various programs to collect statistics on their games, where they also record statistics on opponents. Therefore, they can also assume certain frequent actions from their opponents with whom they have already played.
Of course, it is much easier to read opponents at the same table, but some players manage to do it online too.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/facebook-s-libra-to-reportedly-launch-in-january-2021-as-usd-stablecoin

"Following more than a year of scrutiny from global financial regulators, Libra will launch in a form of a United States dollar-backed digital currency, the Financial Times reported on Nov. 27"

If this happens in reality, Facebook will be able to get huge working capital for the implementation of its projects. It can be compared to a fairly large Bank.
I'm more interested in what impact this coin will have on the crypto market. I hope that thanks to this coin, more and more people will be able to buy other cryptocurrencies, because not everyone will want to stop only at Libra.

All such tables only reflect average figures and do not need to be treated as something very accurate. However, it is quite possible to estimate the chances of falling out of a particular combination of cards.
In general, sometimes it seems to me that the chances of getting good cards by the opponent are much higher than mine.  Cheesy
the problem is when we do the recording method of everything that has been played sometimes if we start again what the machine produces is not the same because I believe they have installed a script to read the cards we have and not poker gambling is not as honest as you might imagine, because if it is easy to guess and always wins, it will make online poker bankrupt.

Play poker only on proven platforms and there will be no risk that someone is playing against you dishonestly and is able to see the cards in your hand.
I know many regular players use special programs that collect statistics for their opponents. How many times and at what stage the opponent has won, how often all-in and so on. You can also install a program that will record the results of your pranks and help you then analyze your typical mistakes. But these programs can't show you other people's cards.

This is a very useful spreadsheet, but in fact it is not correct. It was created on the assumption that the opponent has random cards in his hands. In fact, if you have two aces, your opponent will call your bet (which you must raise very seriously) with cards that are much better than the average.

It would be better if you will bet on a multiple games in which the more you bet then the more chance that you can win, or else the more money you may lose. But it would be worth it once you have hit an jackpot because there are some betting sites that the odds are double or triple than other odds of single bets so if that will happen then probably there are a high chance that you can earn more due to having a multiple bets.

I don't think this is an advantage since an higher odds doesn't help for the final result (win the bet).
Some bookmakers love these type of promotion since they are pretty aware that a lot of newbie will place long list of bets just for the sake of 5-digits jackpot.
This it could be called as "paying an emotion" or something like this. The real probability for a win is so small, it is a safe business.

With such chances it is better to bet on the team that occupies a low place in the standings. If the favorite has already left the group and the game is not important for him, he can let out on the field a spare lineup and he can be beaten by a weak team.
However, I would not advise to make either bet. Multi-bet bets are good only if made on a small number of events.
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is live betting better than betting in advance? on: November 28, 2020, 09:12:43 PM
Pre-match betting or betting in advance are only good for people who know the performance of both opponents in a match that they can easily figure out who has the edge on the game. On the other hand for people who prefer in game betting or live betting are less knowledgeable on the team's performance for they cannot presume who will win in the match.


Sometimes it happens that a weak team at the beginning of a football match manages to score a goal and the coefficient can immediately be in its favor. However, this does not mean that this team will necessarily win.
If a person does not understand teams, then I would recommend that they do not make any bets at all, because this will be a bet not based on knowledge, but a bet based only on luck.

420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How long until we can bet with bitcoin in real life casinos? on: November 28, 2020, 08:04:47 PM

It is happening already, isn't it? I have ever heard that there are some physical casinos accepts bitcoin as one of the payment method to buy the chips.
It is obvious that this is the only possible way since bitcoin is not a physical currency, so I doubt we will see casinos where gamblers play with physical bitcoin in the future.
IMO what we have now (online gambling industry) where we can play with bitcoin is more than enough. I have no reasons why it should be implemented on physical casinos since I will never be able to play on physical casinos Smiley

I think that many people from this topic have never played in regular casinos and so it is not so important for them to pay there in Bitcoin or not. This is important in terms of the prestige of Bitcoin and its fame. The more places that will be accepted as payment for Bitcoin, the more popular it will be. I sometimes go to regular casinos, but I never want to buy chips for the Bitcoin.
