You shouldn't gamble what you can't afford to lose in the first place. I agree that the majority of people who gamble is in the red. Even if they win sometime, but they still lose more before. And a few one who's positive have a great luck. And the purpose of gambling is to enjoy the game.

Gamblers will not remember this that they need to gamble only what they afford to lose. The extent feeling of always winning when they started to play is what always comes out of their mind. It's not worth it when these addicted gamblers, realized that they need to moderate their addiction and convert their time to some other good things.

Sometimes experience is helping us when we gamble but if you are confident to gamble with your luck and skills, you don't need to be experienced. Because there are some gambling games that aren't requiring experience for it. Though I'm not totally depending on my luck but when I know what I'm doing, it's more important.

It is definitely not important to have any experience at all unless it is poker game though. All you need is just to click few button and the random result will come out. Anyone could do it and it is not hard for even a retarded person to start to gamble . Definitely having self confidence is not going to improve the result of the game though

Exactly, if you are a poker player experience is a big plus factor to you and you can beat your opponents by having various experience of bluffing and scaring them by doing something crazy by raising the bet. Well there are certain use for experience in gambling and it will not be wasted, just choose the ones that will give you the advantage for having it.

Could not agree more on this mate. Just like anything in life, good application of wise experienced wins the day. So, if you are still learning, better do act right now and have a mindset that you either win or learn something.

Yes that's the good thing about experience, you will have the chance to avoid those part bad experience that you did in gambling. It's like being wise and having good decisions, no relation to winning and losing but it can be a preventive help to avoid vast loss that you can possibly make if you are into gambling.

You shouldn't encourage young ones to focus or to go all in on bitcoin. No matter how great a thing was if abused it will only cause problems. They should try Bitcoin don't go all in it's only my opinion but it is still depends on one's person perspective.

Modern technology is what the young people now are into it. And bitcoin is a product of modern technology, there's nothing wrong if we will introduce bitcoin to the young ones. While they are young, it's good for them to have some knowledge about bitcoin so that they will have the idea that can earn through crypto currency.
4144  Other / Archival / Re: Which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? on: June 05, 2017, 09:56:38 PM
I think they are both at par in terms of the risk but the rate of occurrence of the risk differ because gambling can drain your pocket in an instance whereas trading is gradual.

Yes they have the same risk but in trading it can also hurt your feeling when you saw your trades are starting to go negative. So for me, they are just both and I just realized it today that when I'm trading it's not that different to gambling, it's like a legit way of gambling though both has risk and it's going to be up to your understanding.
4145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin the future of online gambling? on: June 05, 2017, 09:44:49 PM
When this thread was first started, then the answer was YES.  Now it's a definite NO.  I'm sure that everyone is well aware of bitcoin's current issues and the high transaction fees are no longer worth it.


It is still the future of online gambling. Let's try to remove first about the current issues and let's just absorb the good thing about it's anonymity, without requiring us to input information needed for a transaction. I can say that bitcoin is still the future of online gambling and those fees are just normal thing, don't expect everything to become free and cheap forever.
4146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: June 05, 2017, 09:32:17 PM
in the second game Cleveland will try to play better than the first game and forget about it . it's true that the Golden State Warriors are strong in their home but if Irving and James do their best they can win this game . it's really hard to bet for who will be the winner ! i'm waiting for this game .

Both teams are strong and they will always play the best that they can and with this finals, the reputation, money, award and recognition is at hand. Looks like everyone seems to be talking about the home court advantage that each team is enjoying. Well the game is on for later, few more hours left, I will watch it while I'm on duty later.  Cheesy
This game will determine if the cavaliers can stay in this series, they have been dominated in game 1 and I think they are cooking up with a good plan to at least limit the warriors, Durant was hot in game 1 so I don't expect he will be in game 2. Lebron James has bigger stake in this NBA Finals, he was a great player and he needs to live up with his reputation, what would the industry say if they will be hammered again.

After game 2, many are now thinking that it will be a sweep and this will be one of the most disgusting series of Cavs. But it is only for those people that make themselves as "sports analysts" just because they have watched the finals. But well Lebron is a good player and I'm not his fan but I know he will make this series into tie.
4147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: June 05, 2017, 09:20:29 PM
No need to be embarrassed during gambling play it does not harm the family and others, embarrassed if gambling but other people's losses let alone families.

No need to be shameful when your family is not affected when you are playing. But be ashamed of yourself when you are able to use others money and you became addicted to gambling. And also if you are not having a bad result in gambling why there's a need to be shameful, only the very reason why you need to be ashamed when someone witnessing your loss.
It is just an individual's decision if he impose discipline in gambling or not, being discipline will ensure us safety and it will never lead us to losing an amount that we cannot afford to lose, we have our family that is more important to us so with that good attitude we know which is our priority in life and we still entertain ourselves and at the same time do our responsibility with our family.

It a must for each gambler to impose the disciplinary actions together with his attitude. Because safe gambling should be implemented and every gambler should know this because the reputation of the gambling industry was becoming negative to other people without knowing if that gambler is responsible or not. And if you are a responsible one, there's no need to feel shameful.

betting is not good a choice .you can invest your bitcoin in a good project, we have many of them.by investing them wisely not on betting  or schemes.betting is game of luck,it is not good to start with as newbie

Seems a good idea that newbie needs to choose the better way of earning bitcoin or profit. If they need to or want to gamble, ask them first. But for me, it's worth to try those newbie to gamble but it will be better if they will only gamble with play money or with free trials so that if they lose, there's nothing to worry and feel sorry about it.

If experience would teach something, that would be on how person would accept a lost. Some people lose there minds if they lost or even stick to even more gambling that can lead to big debt. So everyone is really fit for gambling but that depends on how your perspective on gambling or even losing is. Controling the odds and betting on what really your guts would tell you and not just basing on just some pure luck.

Yes all of us can fit to gamble but the question is, is the newbie we are teaching or seeing playing is capable of accepting defeat. But we'll know the answer for that question if lose happened to him. That's why we have free will, if we think we will be having a good experience and benefit on it, just do it and if the result is bad, we are free to flee from it.

Experience matters big with gambling. When we think of gambling gathering information regarding the games and selecting odds is difficult, than difficult is to manage the money if you win continuously because of luck or due to the efforts made in selecting the right odds. This can be made perfect on experience.

4153  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: June 03, 2017, 06:43:36 AM
I think not, if proven bitcoin reduce unemployment certainly many countries that will provide funds for research bitcoin, reduce unemployment but only limited to who knows and cares with bitcoin.

You are not seeing the result of bitcoin now because there are still some companies that are not accepting bitcoin and freelancers are not migrating to bitcoin. But if you know that bitcoin is giving a good chance for those unemployed people, they can choose to be a freelancer and work online with bitcoin depending on their skills.

4155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: June 03, 2017, 06:13:05 AM
I think its yes. From now own even 18 years old below are playing gambling so it is not possible that 18 years old are playing gambling. Gambling are make them happy or more enjoyable while earning. They make gambling because sometimes it is their way for the easy money earning.

Gambling is not invented yesterday and even kids are exposed to gambling if they have a father or mother that is gambling. So kids will just do whatever their parents are doing. And if they saw their father are gambling with their friends or playing poker for sure when that kid grow up or have some additional age, he will gamble at young age.
Not always it's a heredity sort of problem lol because you see children around 15-18 years use the internet the most and that time when they see an easy opportunity to earn bitcoins they just fell for it. The father is busy in his work to all the time coordinate his children and hence we can't just blame them all the time too. I think verification should be started now since all this is happening.

Yes it's not a heredity problem but also if it's because of the people surrounding the kids, they will be brought by those guys. And if those guys are into gambling and making it as their way of living, those kids that are witnessing the activity of the people surrounds them will be imitated by them. So there's a lot of underage people gambling.
4156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we still gambling while we always lose? on: June 03, 2017, 06:02:01 AM
The revenge thinking is what makes us play again and again even after loosing. I would stop betting right away if I cover my loss, this is what every gambler thinks at least.

Recovering our losses is a very normal attitude of gambler, first it's hard to accept defeat and you won't be able to have control on that feeling on the easiest way. And also fear of wasting your chance to win is also a reason why we keep on gambling even we lose all the time. But if you are an experienced gambler, you know when to stop.
4157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Superstition on: June 03, 2017, 05:47:36 AM
Superstition in gambling are not that important. Anyway we have individual beliefs. Others are believe in superstition they wear the same shirt when they won. They seat in the same chair when they won. Etc. But then Im not going to believe that way because when it is your lucky day, you win no matter what.

It's not my priority, to believe superstition is just a matter of choice. If you are a believer and the time you had decided to believe a superstitious belief did gave you a good result. It's a coincidence because I don't believe with it anymore, our fate is in our hands and the way we will be good at handling our gambling money.
4158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: June 02, 2017, 07:04:25 AM
When I was younger I wanted to spend what I’ve earned on things like cars and large houses. Now that I am older I don’t really care so much about purchasing things with the money that I earn through gambling, I usually just use the money to make more bets online.


With that plan of your winnings, you need to have big amount of it. And well that will be my move too if ever I'm going to win some decent amount. It's my dream to buy my own home and car and will live a decent life. Also I will invest into some other investments that is going to make me quit my job and focus on that business.
4159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: June 02, 2017, 06:46:23 AM
If you cant control your feelings related to gambling,you are  addicted to gamble. Ask from betting site to block your account Smiley

This will go near to a severe gambling addiction. But I doubt it that gambling site will block your account, you are their customer and they will not allow a single customer to stop playing and passing out to his addiction. No gambler means no profit for them so as a gambler you should do something about it, just don't believe gambling sites so that you won't be tempted.
Yeah I don't think gambling site will block your account, if you are one of the reasons why they are continuing to grow their profit then they will never block your account. We should be the one who controls ourselves and we are the one who makes to decides. We are the one who will choose to be better or to be worse. It is our choice.

There's no way for them to block your account unless you are cheating their system and that will be the reason for your account to be blocked. But it will only happen once they detected you that with your account, something wrong is happening. If you are sure to give up gambling, better watched out yourself and focus in quitting.
