“Gambling is a sickness, a disease, and addiction, an insanity, and is always a loser in the long run.”

It depends on how everyone can treat gambling properly. If they can do that, gambling is not a problem because they can gamble anytime and stop whenever they want. But the problem is many people are tempted to earn even more money by playing longer. And if that's the case, then gambling is a disease for them, and they should leave it soon before it's too late. But many people don't realize it and are even dragged deeper into gambling, which makes them addicted to gambling.
If it's treated as entertainment purposes then it's completely fine but when we get addicted to it then it's the root cause of many destruction among which main is financially unstablizing your position which is why it's always said to be in your limits and don't get too tempted to bet in hope of wins.
~Snip~

"If you find it hard to leave gambling, maybe you are already experiencing gambling addiction, leave immediately before it's too late."
As jokingly as this may seem or sound, it is so true, there are many things we do without realizing what we are doing until we are done doing them, Gambling is most times, one those things, one can be so carried way in gambling that they wont realize how much they've already lost, but immediately they leave the gambling table or log out from their online casino, their mind will begin calculating how much they've actually gambled away, and at the same time, realize better things they would have don't with that money, and upon this realization, most will likely break down.
I am not actually fanaticizing about this, this is some thing I've experienced myself.
I also experienced it like you and others. But unfortunately, sometimes I refuse to admit it because I think that the loss is nothing because it is the amount of money I can afford to lose Grin

But in reality, if we want to think further, for example, we lose $ 30 or even more if we use that money for other things, maybe it can be useful for us instead of experiencing losses at the gambling table Grin

And actually, we have lost so much that we forget how many there were. And we still play gambling, hoping to win a lot of money one day hahaha.

People who gave up during the bear season bought bitcoin at such high prices before the bull season that when the downturn came, and it happened quickly, they couldn't stand to see the value of the money decline so fast and they became desperate. But if they persisted and waited for the right moment to buy bitcoin again at the bottom price, by now, they must have started smiling happily because they saw the price of bitcoin increasing again.

This is the story of every newcomer to Bitcoin or Crypto. Many new people get interested in Bitcoin when the price goes up, and they buy it at the high price. They think it's increasing in price and it will increase further. But, when the market goes downtrend and makes some corrections, they get frustrated and sell it. You have to remember that you are not in loss until you sell it. If you bought in a high market, Hold and wait for a suitable time. Never sell at in lose.
However, most people are not ready to see price changes so fast, especially when prices are decreasing, because the decline can occur instantly without them being able to think about it. And when they are faced with that situation, those who do not have sufficient knowledge about bitcoin movements panic, especially when they see the balance in their wallet, which shows a decrease in the value of their money. And what will happen next is they sell some or even all of them at a loss. But if they can hold on and hold on, they can get another profit that can be even higher than they expected.

I really don't think I will leave my bets to an artificial intelligence to do my sourcing for me and I will rather do copy gambling rather than leave my bets to artificial intelligence to do them for me .
I'm not even condemning people who do so because I believe there are people who do so and are doing relatively very well in it without much stress and hassle and people like that will tell you so much about letting artificial intelligence do the work for them. In general, I will never leave my bets to an artificial intelligence to do my sourcing for me.
It would be better if that person could look for other sources of information from elsewhere so that the information from AI and the sources of information we find can support our analysis and we can choose the right team. This will give us more information, especially if AI technology can find different information sources than we find. We also don't know if anyone has invented AI technology like that or if further research is needed. Still, we can wait until there are newer announcements from developers working with AI technology.

We can only speculate and assume that AI can perform things like that, it's possible that updates can provide more detailed information about the event that will take place, but still there are factors that can't be accurately be predicted just by using data that AI will able to collect and provide, there are factors outside that data that may affect the outcome of the game.

injuries and all those human errors can't be added if things happened during the game.
For now, AI technology still has limitations in collecting more accurate data. Still, it can compensate for these deficiencies along with technological developments in artificial intelligence. And developers are increasingly motivated to develop AI technology that is better than now so that people can use AI technology properly in the future. The development of AI has begun to be seen but doesn't seem to have led to the gambling industry because this technology is still being tested first to see how people react and how far AI technology has developed.
4124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can anyone tell me what is the best way to gamble w/ BTC on online casinos? on: February 06, 2023, 04:37:59 AM
Why would you want to find a "cheat sheet" that can get your account banned by the casino if they find out you are cheating? It will not make time to gamble comfortably because there is a feeling of worry or something else, especially when we want to withdraw the winning money.

If you want to find a reputable casino site, you are already on the Bitcointalk forum and can start looking. Suggestions from us are just suggestions, but you should find them yourself based on your research and observations, especially from the assessments made by members here. Reputable casinos have bitcoins and altcoins; you can choose which one you want.

You can add one more, namely:

Try trading with real money besides trading through the simulator, so you also have real trading experience. This will be useful for you so that you can better understand where your weaknesses are in learning to trade.

Don't forget to learn to control yourself in trading, so you don't get emotional in dealing with situations on the exchange.

Never stop to learn more about trading so you can increase your skills.
4127  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambler Loses 1.4 million USD in a bet with lower than 1.01 odds! on: February 05, 2023, 12:25:54 PM

Not saying that the bettor is dumb but with that amount, he can diversify it thru several bets playing at the odds of around 1.5.

I'd rather bet on odds as high as @2 instead of going all-in at @1.01.

He probably thought that you can't lose match with such low odds. Match going south at such odds was significantly less but not null,. I think he misunderstood between the two.
He shouldn't think like that because no matter what chance he set, he would have a chance of losing. And if he plays sports betting, he should think about the surprise factor that often appears in the middle of a match or the second half. He has to learn from his defeats and not repeat them, but that is also if he still has a lot of money to gamble again. Otherwise, he would be bankrupt because he had lost so much.
And the truth is that we can't just rely on the odds where to bet, sometimes happens to me that I put on higher odds but still lose. And probably it can happen in the opposite way. This will tell us that winning in gambling is 50/50 chances, if we are too lucky then we have a chance but that person as OP has mentioned might use his head but he does it without hesitation and loses millions.
Odds can change before a minute of the match starts, and that can cause us to lose if we place in the opposite direction, and it can also happen the other way around. And it's true, our chances of winning at gambling are 50/50, but when the game has started, our chances of winning can be below or become 30/70 or we don't even have a chance. But some people can win and even win a lot of money, and it will depends on their luck when playing gambling.
4128  Economy / Speculation / Re: My fear in fall of Bitcoin. on: February 05, 2023, 11:27:22 AM
  Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that no has the capability to predict it's rise or fall.
   I am beginning to have a doubt that Bitcoin cannot go to a higher price just like the previous year.
  Cause Bitcoin is determined by the number of people in the digital market. Just like the higher the number of people that purchase Bitcoin the lower it's price and for it price to go higher it requires some Bitcoin investors, traders and miner's to withdraw some percentage of their Bitcoin. So I still have the doubt of Bitcoin shooting higher  just as we are expecting in 2024.

Yes, anything can happen, no one is sure that bitcoin will rise again and will hit new ATH, all is just our hope for bitcoin. But once you have invested with the expectation of making a profit, you must overcome your fear and take risks to achieve your goals. If you're scared and can't take the risk, sell your bitcoins, get out of the market, and give that opportunity to others. Why call bitcoin an opportunity, but not everyone can grasp it? Think about that.
Our fear will prevent us from taking even the smallest risk, and we will not dare to take a single step. Perhaps, he needs to learn more about bitcoin to overcome his doubts and fears so he can know that an investment must have risks, and as long as we can overcome those risks, we don't need to be afraid. But let's just let him be like that until he can see how the potential of bitcoin is in the future. And if that time comes and he wants to invest in bitcoin, perhaps he will regret it because, at that time, the price might have been too high for him to buy.

I'm confident, I bet him that if he sells his bitcoins and gives up now, one day when bitcoin hits $100k, he'll come back and buy bitcoins at a higher price. I saw many people give up on bitcoin when the 2018 bear season caused them to lose faith in bitcoin, but they came back in the bull year 2021 when they saw bitcoin bounce back and hit new ATH. And they often lament and regret their wrong decisions in the past, but no matter how much they regret, that opportunity cannot come back. OP would be like them if he gave up bitcoin from now on.
If he sells it now, I'm sure he will regret it just like I did before when bitcoin could go from $200-$300 to $500-$650 ago. And since then, I've always been trying to collect more bitcoins so I can sell them when the bull run comes back.

People who gave up during the bear season bought bitcoin at such high prices before the bull season that when the downturn came and it happened quickly, they couldn't stand to see the value of the money decline so fast and they became desperate. But if they persisted and waited for the right moment to buy bitcoin again at the bottom price, by now, they must have started smiling happily because they saw the price of bitcoin increasing again.

Nothing can help if we experience gambling addiction except ourselves by realizing that we have a problem while playing gambling for a while. We must be able to recognize whether we are okay while gambling or whether we have the desire to continue playing gambling until our money runs out. From there, we can see that we are still doing well in gambling, and even so, we still have to be careful because gambling addiction can come to us anytime.

If so, maybe this quote can be a reminder for us:

"If you find it hard to leave gambling, maybe you are already experiencing gambling addiction, leave immediately before it's too late."
4130  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The best time to buy bitcoin. on: February 05, 2023, 09:50:42 AM
The best time to buy bitcoin is when the price is below. Like in a few weeks ago, it was at $15k. But unfortunately, we don't know when the lowest price of bitcoin will be reached, and we can only predict the price. And maybe a clue that we can use is when the price experiences a correction and goes down. We have to get ready to buy at the low price we want and hope it's the lowest price.

But if your goal is long term, you can use the DCA strategy so that it won't confuse you to set a low price. As long as your target is weekly or monthly, you can buy bitcoins at any price immediately but make sure to buy when there is a correction.
4131  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you appreciate more Desktop or Phone on: February 05, 2023, 09:07:31 AM
Obviously desktop is a more good option as its big and you can work and play easily,  and If you are doing some research work you can browse easily by use of various tabs . Desktop is a more safer and those who are habitual of working on pc cannot work on phones.
On other hand phone is more handy and convenient thing and you can use it anywhere you want for game or work . It's easily accessible and movable.
Both desktops and phones have advantages and disadvantages for many people, especially those who use them for gambling. Everyone will try to find what can make them feel comfortable in accessing gambling sites, and maybe some people use both to gamble. So if they are at home, they use the desktop, while if they are out of the house, they use their phones to gamble. And that satisfies their desire to gamble, and they have no problem using the two devices.

Yes mate you are correct and both are very useful all we need is to choose if what are the favorite. But for me I'll go for phones cause the reason of I can gamble whenever I go, like while on my duty, I'm in vacation or whenever I go I can access the gambling sites I usually play. But if I don't have work then I'll choose desktop as we all know the advantage while watching. Live games and later on place our bet .
Using your phone to play gambling is okay because you are often outside the house. That will be your way of playing gambling, but you must keep in mind the limits of gambling so that you don't forget your main task to do other more important things. Your duties or work and gambling will not interfere with each other, and you can still enjoy your time playing gambling. We must realize this so we don't become addicted to gambling, which many people have experienced. So it doesn't depend on the device we use but on how we treat gambling properly.

The sister slot of Gates made it worse, at least Zeus had paid 300x without big multi combinations but Starlight Christmas straight trolled on high level :
https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/dUWmg7b8Dm
If you can hit 300x or higher, you will win a lot of money. But unfortunately, you can't hit it, and I wonder why it can come out so many times, but you can't hit even one big one. But then again, that's gambling, and maybe it's true. You just weren't lucky at that point. Hopefully, you can be luckier next time and get a big win. I support you bro Grin
Thanks likewise 🙂
Today tried level up slot challenge on Stake and one of Push gaming slots didn't hit 80x for 3900 spins. Over 3k spins and lack of 80x is not acceptable after that much loss so hopefully level up reward of challenge will cover overall loss. Maybe it was only me unlucky on that challenge.
You're welcome. I never thought about leveling up the Stake, but it would be interesting to try. But I see it will be difficult because the percentage rate to level up is very slow Grin

Yesterday I tried to follow you, but as you experienced, I lost too Grin

Means now you have raised your level of Stake? If so, good luck to you. I've never tried playing at the Push Gaming provider. Maybe later, I'll try it to see if luck will come to me or keep losing.

Okay. Let's just gamble with $10. If it's true that the coin will increase in the future, let's say in the next altcoin season, I will get a big profit. But if not, it will be a loss for me. It was only $10 anyway.

But unfortunately, the coin has not been listed on a centralized exchange, so it has received less attention from traders or investors. Or am I wrong?

I'm curious about the deposit process that will enter after 3 confirmations, but the withdrawal process can be up to a maximum of 24 hours. Even though we know 3 confirmations can be less than 1 hour. Isn't the withdrawal process automatic, @OP?

4135  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will 2023 be another up year for Bitcoin? on: February 04, 2023, 04:49:36 PM
The price has gone up more than 40% when compared to the end of the year and makes us worthy of expecting a lot in 2023, we must forget the dark story in 2022 and prepare to welcome the New ATH this year, do not panic and easily sell when there is a correction, because the market will immediately rise and make us regret if we sell at a cheap price.
There's no need to panic and it's easy to sell during a correction but instead, use that moment to buy more at a low price. I hope this year will be a price reversal for bitcoin and altcoins. But if that doesn't happen, I can still wait a bit longer and try to increase my bitcoin amount. But I feel that the market will not go up high immediately but is still going up gradually and correction will still happen again. Meanwhile, we don't know whether the new ATH will occur this year or next.

2022 for me is a favorable year and nothing to be afraid of, I have used a lot of opportunities to buy high discount bitcoin, and I am really satisfied with what I achieved in 2022. Although bitcoin has been up 40% since the start of this year, I don't think bitcoin can continue to rise or hit new ATHs for the year. I still believe that history will repeat itself, we will only really enter the bull season, and bitcoin will hit ATH if and only if the halving occurs.
Bitcoin still needs time to rise high or reach a new ATH, which will happen this year or next. And 2022 is indeed a profitable year because we see bitcoin at rock bottom, giving us big discounts to buy bitcoins. But some still don't use it to buy bitcoins because they still hope the price can go down even further.

But that was all in the past, and now, the bitcoin price is at $23k. Although now the correction has come again. But that's okay because, in time, the bitcoin price will pick up again, and hopefully, next week, there's a rally for the bitcoin price so it can break even higher.

The price has gone up more than 40% when compared to the end of the year and makes us worthy of expecting a lot in 2023, we must forget the dark story in 2022 and prepare to welcome the New ATH this year, do not panic and easily sell when there is a correction, because the market will immediately rise and make us regret if we sell at a cheap price.

But I feel that the market will not go up high immediately but is still going up gradually and correction will still happen again. Meanwhile, we don't know whether the new ATH will occur this year or next.
A correction is only a small decline so it's not something that can make us panic but if the price drops further then there might be more than a correction but again like you said, instead of panicking it would be better if we can use that opportunity to buy more coins knowing that we are talking about there is bitcoin and not any other coins.

And like you many are also hoping for a reversal but it seems that your guys' wish is coming true because the price still continues to increase. I remember we start this year with a $17k but look if where we are at now, we are at $24k already. That's quick but this was a great start for this new year 2023.
And if a correction still occurs next week, we shouldn't panic because we won't see that it's an opportunity that we should use to buy more bitcoins. This will give us the opportunity to have more bitcoins than before, but we must remember that investing in bitcoins must be with the money we can afford.

The price reversal will happen again. We don't need to worry. It's true that you said that we are now at $ 23k, which shows that there has been an increase in the price of bitcoin. This situation will change when a rally comes to the market, which will make the bitcoin price go higher, and it may break through the $25k level after previously bitcoin broke the $24k mark.
4136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Casinos Want you to Gamble Responsibly on: February 04, 2023, 03:51:33 PM
If many casinos have such responsible gambling guidelines, we as gamblers should not treat gambling beyond these limits so that it will not have bad consequences for us. We should treat gambling as entertainment and not expect too much from gambling to earn much money.

We can enjoy gambling by using money as needed and not exceeding our set limits. We are responsible for ourselves and our money, so we must remember that gambling is entertainment.

You are lucky to be able to use bitcoin as an alternative payment at the hospital to pay off the payment immediately. In this case, bitcoin has helped you overcome financial problems that cannot be solved by fiat currency due to the limited circulation of local currency.

Your government should consider this and implement alternative payment options other than using local currency or cash payments. If bitcoin can be used as an alternative option to pay for every business, it can help your country's economy. Still, it depends on your government's attitude toward the presence of bitcoin.
