I very much doubt that people will even want to give out information about themselves that they actually play gambling games in online casinos. In society, as a rule, there is a bias towards people who play in casinos. Therefore, in some cases, even the fact that someone will know about your online casino games will be enough for a person to stop playing in an online casino.

Government or any public or private organization should not intervene or interrupt in any activity that people are doing that may have a bad impression in the public, the general society has a bad impression on gamblers and this will discriminate them, they can just pose serious warnings but it's on the person to imposed it to himself not the government.


Government intervention in people's Affairs is a complex thing. Here it is important to observe a fine line, how to set the rules of the game and not directly interfere in people's Affairs. It seems to me that it is impossible to set limits on the amount of loss so that they do not affect anyone. Someone can afford to lose tens of thousands of dollars and still not get serious damage to the wallet. And for someone, losing a hundred bucks will already be a serious loss.

I agree with you, people who like to gamble higher than the set limit might have to divulge their financial information just to pass the requirement to gamble a higher amount, question is, are they willing to do that?  I can already see that majority would say no.

So guys, what's you take on the game 5 of the Mavericks vs Clippers?

KP is still not sure if he can play, but without him, do you think Luka would still carry the team?

Let's discuss the most interesting series of the first round.  Smiley
4143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Jeff Horn vs. Tim Tszyu on: August 25, 2020, 12:20:08 PM
This fight is less than 24 hours from now and the odds seems not moving. My target of 3+ for Horn won't happen i think but nevertheless i would take this 2.70 Horn, gonna go for the underdog this time  Smiley.

But wait, there's an accusation of the Horn's camp on the judges.

Quote
Trainer Glenn Rushton stoked the flames at Tuesday's weigh-in, accusing judge and former fighter Phillip Holiday of telling a friend Tszyu would win.

He also raised the issue of second judge Chris Condon owning the gym Tszyu has been training out of, pointing to his close association with Tim's father Kostya as another potential compromise.

Tasting their own medicine? lol...no further comment about that.

By the way, you'll get a better odds in Nitrogensports.  (https://nitrogensports.eu/sport/Boxing/248/Fights)

4144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: August 25, 2020, 11:48:31 AM

Therefore my pick is Dallas Moneyline and +6.5
Let me follow you on this Sir.  Grin


Glad we are on the same board, let's win this game. Luka did some magic in game 4, he doesn't need to do the same, they just need to win.
Actually even if I lose, it doesn't matter, I just love how the Dallas are playing right now, everyone is contributing well, and that makes a successful team.

In case KP won't be able to play, not gonna hedge my bet.
4145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: August 25, 2020, 10:45:06 AM
Here I go again.

The best series in the 1st round, betting on the Mavericks vs Clippers again.

The hype of Luka Magic is still on, so I would not bet against him in this series because I got a bonus which is the + points.
Also, it seems like Kristaps Porzingis is going to play in this game as we have some good update per https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30160/kristaps-porzingis
Quote
An MRI on Kristaps Porzingis' sore right knee came back negative.
This is wonderful news and Porzingis will undergo treatment at Monday's practice. He's still listed as questionable on the official injury report, but Shams Charania of The Athletic is reporting that he will be a game-time call as the Mavs wait and see how his knee responds.

4146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: August 24, 2020, 05:17:56 AM
Luka got magic, that's the real thing, but without KP, I'm not sure they'll get a win in this series.

We will have to wait for the result of MRI, hopefully it's a positive one and that would allow Kristaps Porzingis to be back in the line up again.

Here's the update to follow : https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30160/kristaps-porzingis

Quote
Kristaps Porzingis will have an MRI on his right knee on Sunday.
The results should determine if he can play in Game 5 on Tuesday, with coach Rick Carlisle saying only that his status hasn't been determined. Trey Burke filled in as a starter for Game 4 and was successful in a thrilling win, so he'd likely get the nod again if KP is ruled out. We should get the test results on Monday or Tuesday.

Dude. Luka!

That OT last shot, the buzzer-beater is hype!

Who has watched Luka's winning shot?

The stats of this kid is lit! 43 points, 17 rebounds and 13 assists

He is now trending in the sports of basketball, that last shot was sick, the guy is cold blooded hitting clutch shots, that's why it's not hard to admire him.
At 21 years old, this guy looks like a veteran and thanks for the coaching stuff for trusting Luka to make the last shot.

They have a good game plan, Kawhi was suppose to guard Luka but that switch made Kawhi trap and Luka got a good mismatch.
4148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: August 21, 2020, 10:43:42 PM
My pick for today.

76ers vs Celtics.

The series is 2-0 in favor of the Celtics but this is not over yet, I believe in game 3 76ers will do everything to win the game, that's why I am backing them with my best combo again.

pick : 76ers moneyline (small) and +6 (huge)

Going for the Blazers +5.5 and a little moneyline. GL

I got lucky with this bet, so let's do it again.

Tomorrow's advance pick .

Dallas Mavericks +6.5 and ML (small) _ They are due for a win, the first game convinced me how good they are with Porziņģis.

4152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For the kind attention of the Gambling sites , a small suggestion on: August 18, 2020, 02:18:45 PM
I don't think gambling is a sport.
it's really up to a gambler, he is the one who is going to treat gambling regardless of what he likes to.
For me it could be my sport as I like sports betting and I don't usually play physical games myself but I love watching physical games, particularly boxing and basketball.

About the KYC most of the gamblers online are afraid to share their personal details and some of them are prefer to play anonymous it's true that you it's easier to play online even if you're not at the right age but there's always a question on the website when you open it or when you register on it asking if you are 18+ or 21+ the gambling sites cannot do anything about that unless KYC is really required under their license.
They have a reason to be afraid, trusting your information in a gambling site is not normal in crypto casinos, so people would choose what is normal and what give them convenience, and people are gambling in crypto due to anonymous gambling, at least that's the major reason I know.


I think guiding your child would be the solution they can't access or play on the casino sites if the parents are guiding them well.


Indeed, no more, no less.
4153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You have to prove that you can take the loss on: August 18, 2020, 01:59:34 PM
There is no point in creating external restraints in order to contain human gambling addiction.
The solution created is not to totally cure gambling addiction, but to prevent people from getting addicted, but it's not 100% guaranteed it will work but this is the initiative of the government.

People must change themselves, otherwise they will always find ways to get around the restrictions.
True, we need to learn from our mistakes, gambling addiction is could be similar to alcohol addiction, but there's no restriction on buying altcoin or limitation from consumers, so this law is quite absurd too but some people would appreciate it especially those who are not gamblers.

In addition, such restrictions relieve people of responsibility for their actions, they begin to think that the reasons for their addictions are outside of them, while this is not so.

Not blaming themselves for gambling addiction when the are in control is a plain stupidity.
4154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Junior [PPV on Nov. 28] on: August 18, 2020, 01:30:25 PM
This might be dangerous for both heavyweights we all know that both boxer is a great boxer but their age is not for fighting anymore also they chose to have this exhibition fight without protective gears which may result to permanent or serious damage.

It's really dangerous, and they know that as they are retired professional boxers. They took this fight and that means they know and will also take the risk, the point of training is to prepare for the fight, not only to win but to survive, so let's just trust them as they know what they are doing and let's hope no one will be seriously injured in the fight.

@Ronnie. Refreshing the page worked, thank you. There are odds there for other sports that did not show before. It might be a bug on Android phones.
Do they have an app for cloudbet ? was not aware of that, how is the experience.

Probably just a problem on his phone. I research if there's an app and I have not found any, so I guess just like other sportsbook and casinos, we only use a browser to access the site, of course it's also accessible through our cellular phone.
4156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: August 18, 2020, 12:30:16 PM
I'm afraid by tomorrow we will see a lot of bad calls against the Blazers. Sad

I hope not.

Dame proved something in this bubble and I don't want to see his downfall because people wanted to see other teams facing in the WCF. That would be really disappointing knowing how Dame would might take down the Lakers and throw down the record the King has every first round of the playoffs.
We never know, James never lose in the first round of the playoffs, this could be the time.
I know he is playing smart basketball this season but the is not getting any younger, and Blazers also have a lot of talents that could match them.

Lakers only relied on James and Davis, if one of them will be shut down, I think Blazers will have a great chance here as they can all score in the floor.

Sometimes Nurkic will contribute more, and sometimes its CJ, so they are so unpredictable based on my observation.
4157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin casinos to surge in German market? on: August 18, 2020, 12:11:41 PM
Banning traditional payment methods in gambling only increases the number of cryptocurrency users. Since the world becomes more developed, people can easily access various ways of payment, including bitcoin. Germany is one of the most developed countries in the world and their citizen are highly educated to understand the concept of digital money. The more laws are implemented, the more ways people will find to avoid the interference of the Government.

Therefore, I believe that bitcoin casinos will develop rapidly in the next few months. This will give bitcoin and cryptocurrencies a huge opportunity to increase both in prices and the number of users. And you need to know that no law can stop people from using bitcoin.

They just increase crypto users by banning those gamblers who are using Visa and Mastercard.
That would probably be the result, not sure if it's for long term though.

And if these players will discover about online crypto casinos which don't require KYC and is legal in their country, they will endorse these to other players.
I'm not sure about how they will regulate a crypto casino, but it could also be possible that when they regulate a crypto casino, it will require KYC.
Not sure about this one, but I'll check on this.


Word of mouth is very effective marketing tool. And hopefully, they will find this forum also.
Because checking the gambling board here will give them idea which are reputable casino sites to play with.

I'm sure they find it, any forum related to bitcoin, this forum is the most popular.
4158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: UTRUST on: August 18, 2020, 11:30:07 AM
At this stage I don't think it is necessary for them to become active into this thread while they already doing their job very well on alternative channels. It will be plus point for them to hire someone as community manager to keep it alive. This project is gaining more attention and moving forward in right way so it will get more big success in future.
Now I have seen the success of this token so it is appropriate for us to follow it in the early stages until now the team is still active and providing important updates there so what we have to do is continue to contribute and will keep this project going in the future.

Damn dude, I don't notice this coin, this has right a lot.

I was looking at its lowest price this year, it was only $0.01, now it's already trading at $0.231... I wish my altcoins holdings would follow the same movement UTRUST has achieved.. I have invested in this token in the past, have sold with profit, so I can still look at it. Looks like an altcoins season is here.

My bad, I was late to the party.
4159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: August 18, 2020, 11:10:07 AM
I'm 0-1 (w-l) in the playoffs so far.

Getting back my winning shape with my pick today.

I'm one of the bettors who are lining up.  haha.

BETTORS LINING UP TO BET AGAINST LEBRON JAMES


So, here's my bet, Lakers vs Blazers.

Going for the Blazers +5.5 and a little moneyline. GL



And I am next in line.
But, I will be waiting until its almost game time.
Let's see if the ML will be maxed out to a level which looks impossible for the Blazers to win.
Then, that is the time I will be betting for the Blazers.  Grin
Lakers is strong, no doubt, but I am the type go bets against strong team. Underdog fan.

Portland is still hot from all that winning spree. I hope we can get the same with our bets.

Or maybe you can also try betting live, if in the early quarter Blazers will be down 5 to 10 points, I think that would certainly give you a good odds for your moneyline bet. All favorites won last night, probably it's the opposite tonight.

Nice suggestion, but me, I want to play safe, if Lakers would win, at least I have +5.5  that would give me a chance to win.

Anyway, it's your call, live betting is fun most especially if you are watching the game.

@Reid, good luck to you mate.
4160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Junior [PPV on Nov. 28] on: August 18, 2020, 07:44:16 AM

It will just depend on both boxers on how they do take this fight seriously.

They can do what they want, but i hope they won't rig the fight and made us fool. Taking it seriously or for fun, it doesn't matter as long as they will do their job in the ring, and since KO is expected to see a winner, this should be brawl, hopefully.
