421  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports that you don’t watch but you keep placing bets on: February 29, 2024, 10:53:40 PM
Do you have a sports that you keep betting on even though you don’t watch this sports live or you don’t know the full specifications of this game?
I don't like watching all games live on TV or live streaming. There are some games that I try to watch when I have free time and most of the time I use websites that provide scores for those games. But I don't see any live streaming site for table tennis games. But when there is a good football or cricket match, I try to watch the live match whenever I get time. Watching the live games while betting gives me some excitement that I don't get at other times. I try to watch live streaming of those games especially when I have big bets. But I don't have the opportunity to watch live games in most of my bets. I place bets before analyzing various data related to the players' condition in that game prior to their wins and losses and then try to know the betting conditions of the game by looking at the score.
422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who's winning more casinos or gamblers? on: February 29, 2024, 10:38:56 PM
Every day, thousands of dollars enter or leave the treasury of casinos, and we always hear about a gambler who wins or loses a large sum of money.

The thing that caught my attention is that the casino never loses. The money that you win is not the property of the casino, but of another player. The casino is in the process of recycling the money that the players have invested. There is always a winner and a loser, and when you bet with an amount of money, you bet against the money of all the other players. If you win, they will pay you from their money, and if someone else wins, they will pay himBTCBTC from your money.

So the casino remains the biggest beneficiary, right?
A casino owner can benefit from having this advantage in gambling platforms. Due to which the gambling industry has also seen a rising moment. But an owner definitely needs big money while establishing a casino. Suppose you have built a casino company, your platform has just started, a number of gamblers have joined and are gambling, how will you pay when one of them wins a big win or jackpot? Of course an owner needs a large amount of money to act as a backup. Here he can either add big reward bets late to reduce his risk and keep small gambling games so that he can get regular money. However, a casino owner gets passive income from the casino or gambling platform due to which he can quickly become the owner of huge amount of money. A gambler can never compete with the house.

It is very hard to win games this time around. Many people have been talking about how they lost more often  than when they win. Sometimes it keeps me wondering how people complain more about not winning, but seeing you updating this photo show that you are motivating this  board and  somany people will be motivated to try their luck because gambling is a game of luck . I remember when I once win so big when I wasn't even expecting anything. I was so happy because I didn't expect it coming but after the win I was so relaxed and happy. So congratulations to your win .
Gambling is not all about losing, there are winning as well. OP's post is one that will inspire everyone. Moreover, no one but a gambler will be able to easily understand the joy of winning from gambling. Especially those who win against good odds. In gambling, normal gamblers do not want to reveal their winnings, especially the big ones, otherwise the number of winnings would not have been low. The gambler strives not to disclose his personal and financial security and gambling. As a result it is not revealed to the general public until a gambler reveals it himself. Of course in gambling there are many wins as well as losses. Luck plays an important role in gambling and there is no winning unless you are lucky. But when a gambler tries again and again, luck comes to him. Maybe this post of yours is an inspiring thread for those gamblers.
424  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If I bet big I lose, but if I bet small I win on: February 29, 2024, 06:36:00 AM
Guys, do you often feel like me? when I raise the bet I lose and when I lower the bet I win. Does the casino system/algorithm know the betting patterns we make? So often when we bet big we are given a loss and when our bet is small we actually win, which is very annoying

I don't know if this applies to all games or not, but I feel like this often when playing table games. What do you think?

I think it's all in your mind.

If that was true, you could simply bet a small amount multiple times, and you would end up rich.

The reality is that the brain gives more negative value to losing than the positive value it does to winning.

So, even if you win and lose the same amounts, your brain will think you lost more.
I consider "If I bet big I lose, but if I bet small I win" It is a contradictory issue, it is clear that there is some difference in the thinking of gamblers between low stakes and high stakes. In case of a big bet gamblers have to think more they feel mental pressure and at some point they may take wrong decision due to the pressure which does not happen in case of small bet. It has no basis in reality. This issue can be distinguished from an emotional perspective. If such a thing were real, gamblers would always place small bets to ensure their winnings. Winning and losing in gambling mainly depends on luck. Losing is more likely than winning. I can't say for sure that I will win but I can almost guarantee that I will lose or most of the time our betting results will be the same.
425  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The scam of FAKE fixed matches on: February 29, 2024, 05:43:23 AM
When it comes to promoting fixed matches, 99.99% are scams. I'm saving a very limit percentage only because we actually are not entirely aware of negotiations under the table between promotions, players, and teams. And there were in fact times when post-game investigations found out that the games indeed were fixed. But that isn't the case with all these social media promotions of fixed matches. They're all fake. If a game is fixed, the word wouldn't spread out in the open. Nobody should take these offers seriously.
Fixed match information will never be published prior to that match. It is very secretive. If someone wants to accept deposits by saying such offers, then it is better to avoid it completely. Those scams may have inside news about some sports, they want to sell that information to common people in exchange for money, moreover, they can call for betting scams by depositing money on various scam sites. I myself got some such offers on my Telegram channel. But as I have preconceived notions about this, I did not fall into their trap, but those who are new are more at risk. They will deny them the opportunity to withdraw after receiving their full deposit.

However, I have followed a few fixed match bets where the information provided did not match the actual game. I would advise gamblers who are targeting fixed matches for guaranteed wins they should remove of this mentality.
426  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: February 29, 2024, 04:22:14 AM
A gambler who has a steady and regular income can have the possibility of winning because his gambling habit can not affect his personal obligations as a man even if he's an addict because being addicted to gambling doesn't actually implies that one will eventually stake all his money on bets but rather someone who plays gambling frequently. By having a steady income, he can take care of other life responsibilities without being affected by his gambling activities and moreover, someone who have a stable income can be aiming to win higher amount in his bets and might be lucky of winning one day and use the money to establish an investment.

Your thoughts on this
A gambler needs human calmness to gamble. A gambler will only be able to get that peace of mind when he is financially mature. Gambler must have a regular income to sustain continuous gambling. Gambler's motive in gambling is to win but winning is not guaranteed in gambling. In betting there can be either profit or loss. Moreover, loss is a common thing as the gambler cannot guarantee a win. Gamblers who have a regular income don't have a problem with gambling losses. They have no recourse especially to meet the daily living expenses. In my gambling experience I am convinced that people who are financially sound have comparatively more gambling wins.

There are some gamblers who don't have enough money but they need badly winnings and those gamblers tend to lose more. I agree with the OP that gamblers need a regular income which is most important for leading good gambling life.
427  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: February 27, 2024, 11:44:14 PM

For many people who become addicted to gambling, in my opinion, it is likely that they cannot resist the temptation to gamble. Indeed, the temptation of gambling is heavy, I feel it But now I can control myself because I know it is important. In order not to experience major losses we must be able to control ourselves. Also the big losses that occurred were due to myself not being able to limit the gambling activities that were carried out. As you said, have control over yourself. That's important, don't let us gamble with a loss of self-control which can result in big problems such as addiction and loss.

It appears you've learned quite a lesson from your personal experience about self control and the potential consequences of not having it when it comes to gambling. You're right that it's not just about losing money, there are also other hazzard irresponsible gambling can cause a gambler such as emotional trauma, this often happens when a gambler has lost everything maybe due to chasing losses and then ended  up taking loans to continue gambling in order to recover the funds he lost, this can easily result to emotional trauma, as well as affecting your mental health and leading someone to frustration, which can often make some gamblers often attempt to take their own life.
Nothing more can bring anything good. A gamble who gamble more, the more likely he is to lose. Gambling is always uncertain. A gambler may be in danger whenever he envisions gambling as a regular income opportunity. There is no regular income opportunity in gambling. But without knowing this fact, many consider gambling as another source of income. They even lost their control at one point. For regular income they even try to use more money to recover losses which results in higher losses and those gamblers suffer more. It is better to have the intention of enjoying gambling rather than earning. Greed will work in it when gambling consider as a income source. Rather, after losing money in gambling, it is better not to try to recover the lost money.

...
When it comes to our life we need to always strive to keep it balanced, gambling once in a while in order to unwind and have some fun is not wrong, but once gambling begins to take away time from other activities or people that we love then that could be an indication that there is an issue going on, since if you are willing to sacrifice your money, time and even your relationship with your loved ones then it is clear that you are no longer gambling just for the fun of it anymore.

Don't sacrifice our social relationships with family just to have fun gambling, family is a responsibility that we have to fulfill every day, gambling can backfire on us if we don't use it well. Apart from that, gambling is something that cannot be mastered like science, so gambling every day will not provide any benefits for every gambler unless the person has a hobby of skill-based gambling such as chess and cards because skill-based gambling can have a good impact on the player. further, enhance the experience of the players.
Gambling every day means there is a huge chance of becoming addicted. If a gambler gambles every day it will have a big impact on his personal life. Daily gambling can create a big communication gap in the family. As a result of which he may be separated from the family. It is not unusual for him to be exposed to a variety of unsatisfactory environments, ranging from disagreements with other family members. Moreover, if a gambler gambles regularly, he may lose more than he wins. Gambling requires a healthy mindset. People who gamble daily can never settle down and think. A gambler can enjoy gambling if he sets a specific time and gambles with a gap of a few days in a week. The more stress-free a gambler can make gambling, the better he can expect to get out of gambling.
429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much does it cost to have your own Casino? on: February 27, 2024, 11:10:32 PM
In order to build a new casino, an entrepreneur usually needs to keep a relatively large budget. But it depends on what kind of service you want to provide. If you want to create a competitive gambling platform, you must provide the same or better service to your customers. Although I have no good idea about this, as far as I know, a developer is needed to develop the gambling platform first. He can be hired on contract basis or he can also work through partnership. Sometimes there is a deal with the developer where he gets 10 to 25 percent of the revenue from the game especially slot games. But there is no problem if it is more or less than this if he can complete it through negotiation.
430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: February 27, 2024, 10:52:40 PM
In my opinion, most people are involved in gambling because they come from friends or a social environment where they often engage in gambling activities at that time. And initially they were spectators who ended up being interested because it looked fun, especially seeing who won.
Because I also started from experience when online gambling had not yet entered my circle and there was no Android, and as time went by online gambling existed and continued to develop which kept me involved until now. But I'm not very active, I only do it when I have the urge to play online gambling. And compared to that time, I like that time more. Because
win or lose at that time, still have fun with friends.
Gambling with friends is a different feeling.. I have realized that when I take bets by myself there is regret when I lose in gambling but when a gambler takes part in betting with his friends he is relatively cheerful. Gamblers can console themselves if they lose there.

Gambling is often started by friends. My gambling life also started on the same way. I was quite inspired by friends' bets. I used to research their wins and losses. Their big wins inspired me greatly. They would have lost but I started by watching them gamble. I think a gambler is most influenced by the gambling of his friends. I believe that a large portion of gamblers are joined by the help of their friends.
431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: February 27, 2024, 10:39:26 PM
Gambling an activity for fun also has the chance to turn someone's fortune. Calculated risk when taken in gambling can be the way to big wins from gambling. Who do you think should take more risk in gambling? The rich gambler or the gambler who is not yet rich. If a rich gambler takes risks in gambling, they are risking losing money and becoming poor from gambling, or getting richer, when a gambler who is not yet rich gambles, they can also get poorer or richer, so the gambler who should take the risk should be the gambler who can handle the dangers of the risk like losing too. When a rich gambler loses from taking a risk, there is a better chance of them being in a position to manage with the losses, than someone struggling financially who a big loss will really affect. So, I am confused after asking myself this question and answering it, does this mean a poor gambler should continue to play it safe in gambling? With no risk, how can a poor gambler change their fortune in gambling?

I think that it is all a matter of percentage and financial relativity. If a poor man gambles even only 1% of his income, he might not be able to pay his bills. If a rich man does it, then he will still be just as rich as before. The problems only start to arise when either of those men develop a gambling problem. Once that happens, it is not so far to full-blown gambling addiction as well as losing all their money. In the end they will be just as poor as the other, with absolutely nothing in their pockets.

It's not just how much money a person spends, but also what percentage of their income they gamble with. Someone who is poor may be unable to afford even a minor loss, but someone who is wealthy may not feel the effects of a major loss. Everyone, regardless of income, can acquire a gambling addiction if they are not careful. It's a complex subject that requires careful consideration of all important factors.
Anyone, rich or poor, can become addicted to gambling. There is no dispute about this. In gambling without discipline anyone will become addicted anytime. The poor may find it difficult to manage money and the rich may find it easier, but it is not unusual for anyone to have high levels of addiction. Rather, a poor person may become desperate to win from gambling because he needs money. From that point of view the poor guy can get addicted to gambling quickly. This is just an estimate that will not be the same for everyone.

Normally we can take risks only when we have the capacity to bear those risks. Rich gamblers don't have a problem losing money, but it's much harder for poor gamblers to take risks. Because in gambling it is better to bet as much we afford to lose. In this respect rich gamblers have more advantages to take the risks.
432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Wins: Your Money Was Returned to You. on: February 27, 2024, 10:22:30 PM
And I don't think someone in the gambling industry has as a win win gambling history. Or you wins are bigger than the loss. And all the experiences I have in gambling I have not seen that and also those of my friends who are gamblers have not to me that they only win and there is no loss record in their gambling history. And all the ones I have seen and known, the loses are more than the wins. And when I carefully look at the argument I also accept the assertion that what you win was part of your loss. Is that true? Make your input.
As gambling involves luck, anyone can take advantage and anyone can lose. It is not unusual for people who have never gambled but won their first bet. And for this reason we cannot say that those who are completely new to gambling will win. Some may win and some may lose. But such comments have been heard before from many gamblers who think it is easy to win on the first bet they think Gambling platforms in particular heavily favor and entice newcomers. I myself won the first bet. But I could never be sure that I would win that bet. I disagree with those who make this comment on gambling. Because I think it's an emotional point of view. I have also heard from some gamblers that they lose when they take big bets from gambling and win relatively small bets. I could not agree with such comments. Just because he might win small bets and lose big bets doesn't mean he will win small bets.
433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 26, 2024, 03:52:00 PM
Chesley is still unstable and after one two wins there are several bad games and defeats, but still for Chesley in the current form it is still a success to reach the final and not to lose in regular time.
Chelsea was actually able to provide resistance to Liverpool, in fact Liverpool only won narrowly in this final match, it's just that luck was not on Chelsea's side and the result of the defeat experienced by Chelsea in this final match was very painful for the Chelsea squad and supporters, coupled with Chelsea's condition. Currently, it is very difficult for them to win, so it is very difficult for Chelsea fans to expect Chelsea to win the title even though this final match is below their caste, but to get the title this season is very difficult to see Chelsea's condition which is in eleventh place in the Premier League. this season..

Yes, it must be admitted that last night Chelsea were a little unlucky, Conor Gallagher failed to score 3 golden opportunities to score even though 90% of them could have been goals, but Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher's brilliant performance was able to ward them off. .
Apart from Chelsea's lack of luck, we all have to acknowledge the greatness of Liverpool who appeared without many core players and only relied on second-string players, but Liverpool performed extraordinary.
For Chelsea this season, I don't think we need to talk about winning, but how Chelsea must improve its performance so that next season it can compete for the EFL title, FA Cup and of course the EFL Cup.
After both teams scored, that were canceled and no more goals were seen. But late on Van Dijk proved again that he is the top goalscorer in the match in the end, his goal 118th minute gave Liverpool the title again. We saw them face each other in the final two years ago, where there was no goal in the allotted 90 minutes and the victory was decided by Tiebreaker. It was almost the same situation this time too, but Van Dijk eventually changed the situation. On the one hand, Liverpool set a record, on the other hand, a shadow of frustration fell among Chelsea fans. It's a joy for Jurgen Klopp. With this victory, Liverpool achieved 10 wins in the Carabao Cup.
434  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You lose more when you over trade on: February 26, 2024, 02:06:49 PM
Exactly. Trading most often even if the market does not favor your trades won’t guarantee for your profitability but it may mean the other way around, losing more and making you more frustrated. Just do trading one at a time, don’t be obsessed on profits because that will only lost your focus and attention from your trades.

Not all those who lose in trading are not skillful in trading, but because their greed is high and that their emotions become uncontrollable anymore that resort into wrong decision making.
There are often some mistakes that are made by investors in trading due to which an investor ends up losing rather than making profit. A trader must be aware of a few things especially those who over trade. There are traders who are overly greedy and try to make a profit from every trade. They even use more money to increase their profit margin. Due to over trading they are exposed to rather big losses.

A trader should remember that the market is not always favorable to him. He must have a good understanding of the market while taking new trades. There are some traders who trade before doing any kind of analysis and even after losing in that trade, they do not stop it, because of emotion, so the level of loss increases a lot. A trader should not be emotional but should trade after researching the market carefully.
435  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: February 26, 2024, 01:40:50 PM
If there are gamblers who choose to keep their gambling activities secret, they should really have the ability to control themselves well. That's because there are so many temptations from gambling that can make them forget and end up falling deeper into gambling.
When a gambler can manage his gambling activities through self-control, he can manage gambling in secret. In gambling there are many people who gamble but no one knows anything about them. Controlled gambling can be conducted so that the gambler's family or relatives do not get any information about gambling. But if the opposite happens i.e. the gambler conducts uncontrolled gambling then today or tomorrow his gambling will be exposed to everyone.

Almost all gamblers try to keep their gambling secret. If the gambler's acquaintances or family members find out about the gambling, the enjoyment of gambling normally can be hindered. For those reasons, it is better to keep secret gambling activities. However, I have seen many gamblers who do not share their gambling with their partners but they fail to keep their gambling a secret due to some uncontrolled gambling behavior.
436  Economy / Economics / Re: Save money today so money would save you tomorrow. on: February 26, 2024, 01:02:48 PM
To cut the story short, I’m advising mostly the young people of our generation to save, avoid unnecessary spendings and save even if it’s so little, cause you might find yourself in a situation tomorrow and you wouldn’t want to call home or ask for help, cause you have a second choice, that means you are literally getting yourself out of a problem. So please it’s not too late to stop spending on things that doesn’t really matter, so basically the money you saved today could literally save you tomorrow.
There is no substitute for savings when it comes to living a healthy and secure life. People who don't save I think don't have a specific goal either. Even a poor man should have tendency to save. My today's situation will not be the same for tomorrow. So I have to act accordingly today for tomorrow's security. Moreover, human performance also decreases with age. So we should have a saving attitude in advance for how we can survive in the future days.

Those who have the attitude of saving they can do it. But saving money is definitely difficult for some people especially who don't know about the importance of saving. An earner should commit to savings even if it is small. The amount of savings may be very small but if one can save that money will turn into an asset after a certain period of time.

It is no longer advice to wake up early, study hard, get high grades, graduate from university and you will find a suitable job that is sufficient to pay your expenses. It is advice that you can teach your children, as life has changed. We are no longer in the 1950s, where a university degree was something that guaranteed you a good life. Today’s students are studying. Master's and doctorate degrees to obtain jobs due to high competition. Either you have a specialized degree in a rare field or you have a higher degree such as a doctorate in traditional fields to be able to compete.
Earning money through academic education is a long road and requires a lot of effort and money, but it remains the easiest way if you continue to continue your studies.
Education is important in changing people's lives but the learner must not be limited to books only. Of course, he should also receive practical education. I don't know what the country will get by those who only look for good jobs but if a student gets practical education along with his academic education he can change his life quickly. The student must remember that the education he is receiving should be useful for the welfare of mankind. I am skeptical about the education of graduates who do not get jobs after completing their studies. They may have received an education that is worthless. Although in some poor countries a large part of the educated population leads an unemployed life, if they receive technical education along with academic education, they will surely be able to change their position.

Various kinds of politics have been going on around Bitcoin before 2021, especially the Chinese government has been leading in its opposition to Bitcoin. Although people saw it differently because they realized that Bitcoin was not a political issue of any one country, it was the desire of all the people of the world. Despite its various positive aspects, some governments have sought to use it for political and financial maneuvers. Various restriction tried to keep people away from using Bitcoin, but those governments failed to implement their goals. Rather, they are learning to realize that Bitcoin is the most promising currency of the future through which they will be able to power their economy. I'm still not sure what the Chinese government has decided on Bitcoin but sooner or later everyone must be enlightened to Bitcoin.

This is good news for Bitcoin lovers. Whenever Bitcoin advances in a competition, there is a kind of excitement among fellow Bitcoiners. I am also inspired by the information you have shared. We couldn't have imagined that Bitcoin could create such a position within a few years of Satoshi Nakamoto's discovery of Bitcoin in 2009. The interesting thing is that people's confidence in Bitcoin is increasing as the days passing. Bitcoin has made the highest perceived gain in a short period of time since its discovery.


Image source

Gold is believed to have been used by humans thousands of years ago. It is believed to have been first used around 3,000 BC and is now widely known worldwide. Bitcoin's discovery period is very short compared to gold. In this short span of time Bitcoin has earned its  greatest place among people all over the world. Demand for Bitcoin has increased so much that people are now more comfortable holding Bitcoin than holding gold. In case of gold we know that it has no limited supply but Bitcoin has only 21 million supply. Moreover, with the change of era, the needs of people have also changed. Bitcoin will gain acceptance as a more valuable asset than any other asset in the long run. Your information is a reflection of that prediction.

There are many scam sites in the crypto gambling area which are harmful for a gambler. But a gambler must identify those sites for uninterrupted gambling operations. If the gambler observes well then he can be aware of several factors through which he can select the best casino or gambling sites. Before gambling on any site a gambler must have a good idea about that site. In particular, it is necessary to know whether the site has a license or not, whether their terms and conditions are correct, and how the user reviews of those sites are. Users must access the Sites with utmost caution. Sometimes scammers take various user information through phishing attacks, so users should be careful when log in.
