441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can people still get the addictive nature through friendly games on: May 04, 2024, 08:32:36 PM
Op, I believe the answer to your questions lies in your post already. You mentioned that the person whom lost his money already had pride in him and that lead him to believe to much in himself that he was going to win the game. However pride is not something you develop Instantly, it's a continuous practice that has been in the mind of the person. So yes, he is going to still repeat such if he has the opportunity to do that else where. One of the mistake he made was not acknowledging the fact that gamble is a game of luck and you cannot be always lucky to make wins.

Majority of persons who go this far in gambling addiction often have a similar goal to achieve, and that is to recover their losses from the gambling site/ casino. One of the easiest way to get addicted is chasing after your loss in which the probability of you catching up with your losses is just 1%, while the remaining 99 says you cannot catch up with your losses. Op I'll recommend you don't give up advising your friend to quit gambling because if he mistakenly use his addiction to Interfere with his source of income, the story won't be friendly anymore, he might get too depressed to the extent of taking his life. So keep doing your best to talk home out of it.
443  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football/Soccer Winning Strategy on: May 04, 2024, 08:01:50 PM
Can i ask you question:
What if the team that scores in first half didn't score the second half what is the result gonna look like?
Like, while betting do we have to give the winning team direct winning since you can't factor the team to win or what if the results comes out 'draw' and you already given HOME or AWAY to win.
I think in my opinion it's a very tough bet, so why not select just few game on before the match starts. Let say one can decides to select only 3 matches which they scores more than 2 goals whenever they play and give them over 1.5 and 2.5 respectively with this your winning is sure, if the total odds give you 4 odd then it's a good game and the winning is sure.

This is why we mustn't gamble with excessively large amount, even if the possibility of wining the ticket is high. A game of 2:0 where the home team is on the lead in the first half, can experience a turn around and later end 2:3 it has happened before and more are yet to still happen. If the home team receives a red card in the other half of the game, it would be very easy for them to conceive a goal or even series of goals from their opposition team. That's one of the reason why the game is a bit tricky and interesting. Your ability to make good predictions is what determines your chance of winning mean while it is still obviously a game of luck.

Our wicked polithiftians and their cohorts dem fit there here dey snoop around and use your update begin witchhunt these new exchanges wey users go drop now. Anyway, whateva wey dem dey do now dey should know that cryptos have come to stay. Wetin dey surprise me pass na the strength wey dem dey take attack cryptos and anything related to progress for youths. Honestly, Tinubu wan finally take this country several years backward. So, we should not do owa P2P on peace anymore.

Actually, no be everybody dey aware of this exchange wey dem fit use take perform p2p, and e no get as e wan be them go must know one way or the other. Our government no dey operate base on say dem wan destroy p2p forex to the ground, Na just that dem they try to regulate the price of dollar to Naira Na why dem never block the remaining Exchanges. If not them go fit list out all the exchange wey get p2p with Naira Na destroy them, but Wattin dem dey fine Na the way take to regulate the value of Nigerian Naira. However make we still  dey watch to see their next action weather them really get head or not.
445  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The adoption of Bitcoin continues to increase. on: May 03, 2024, 10:05:44 PM
Normally Nigeria Na country wey like to maximise opportunity, the fact say many person no too like to use bank because of their transaction limit for a day, Na why the Bitcoin go dey relevant. Just imagine say person wan buy gadget of 1.2m and bank transaction limit Na 500k for a day? How person wan do, and to go withdraw for bank carry cash waka dey very dangerous Na one of the reason wey make Satoshi create Bitcoin. Then talking about this government matter with opay Abi all financial institutions, them don bring back the restriction wey we been dey happy say dem remove just because of the small increase wey dollars take pass Naira Naim dem don start to dey behave anyhow so.
446  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: OKX has stopped its p2p service for Nigerian customers on: May 03, 2024, 09:28:13 PM
I don't know why the government continue to see the wrong vision concerning the win of the naira currency with dollar gaining momentum steadily, this is not about the crypto exchanges, they are not the ones causing naira devaluation against dollars, the country economy is bad and if nothing is done to tackle on this, things will always remain the way they have been, stopping the use of p2p will not be the end of the use of USD in Nigeria, there are many dependencies in the economy whereby we make use of the foreign exchange in achieving them, including the ones being under the control of the government, they also have to use dollar in some certain extent.

E dey very obvious say our government never still know we're dey pain dem for body. Them just wan use this crypto wey men take they guide as excuse to their own failure. I no even understand where this country politics sef dey go, I think say the senate been talk about the government sending negative signals to the international? Now where them dey wey all this thing's still dey happen, Abi them don carry money block their mouth? Anyway Na God go help us for this country oo. My prayer Na be say make e no just affect the remaining exchange wey dey come join this mempool congestion wey dey ground oo.
447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you cashout or wait for the game to conclude? on: May 03, 2024, 09:04:13 PM
Over the years In my gambling experience, if there is something I have learnt is that, being a greedy gambler can be one of the worst experience a gambler can have, especially in scenarios like this where you have the opportunity to cash out 12x your stake, why would you be so greedy to still exercise patient when you already have lots of profit in your possession, and all you need to do is to hit the cash out Botton. I have had series of opportunity to cash out but greed made me loss some of my bet, and ever since I have made up my mind to use the option when I have more than x5 of my stake  and use small portion of the profit to stake the remaining games.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which device do you prefer for gambling ? on: May 03, 2024, 08:51:17 PM
The desktop is actually a good idea for gambling, because you can easily navigate and have a wider field of view but one of the greatest demerit about desktop for gambling is the fact that it cannot be carried around all the time, and as gamblers there are situations where you are to make a life gambling and you cannot just open your laptop any where anytime. But this is where the mobile phone comes in, making life more easier and more flexible, you can actually take you no Ile device to anywhere you wish to, even the bathroom  Grin I prefer the use of mobile devices for gambling, as you can actually keep it anonymous from kids.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Streamers using demo account on: May 03, 2024, 08:43:43 PM
Wow I haven't heard of this one though, but it seem very possible as most influencer can actually do that, just to get the attention of the viewer. It's quite unfortunate that someone person can even think on using such strategy to trick the minds of the viewer so as to get more customer in using their service. I can say for sure, but it's possible some person who are desperate could even make a customised account for advising/deceiving their viewers. But if any is caught he should be arrested for fraud.
450  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Beginning an adventure to learn about Bitcoin on: May 02, 2024, 09:27:28 PM
It's the most common thing for newbies when they start something new or something they want to try but it won't be a good idea if a newbie is rushing to learn although there's nothing wrong about a person interested in learning but if you rush in learning something then a newbie might miss something that can jeopardize his/her security for example and lose money. Even those people who already gain enough knowledge even lose money either losing the access to the wallet or got scammed by scammers through different ways they can think of.
The journey into the crypto space is a vast and if you think you can actually cut your way through the knowledge then I think you will just find yourself crying at the end because just as cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin is filled with wonderful opportunity, it can also be very dangerous because it has the ability to make or and also break you so understanding the basic set is very important especially when you have the money. Bitcoin knowledge is something that you need to take your time in learning as per the knowledge is vast and remember good thing can also cause alot of pain too.
451  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Welcome and congratulations To you sheriff on: May 02, 2024, 09:07:46 PM
Just as the tittle of my thread reads, this na very big congratulations and another might feather wey we don collect like this for this our small community wey eyes from outside too plenty and this news na one reason wey make all these people Dey always carry us for mind but glory to Jah say we still be winning.

452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: May 02, 2024, 09:01:27 PM
Experience is never the age limits anyone can go into casino house to learn is as much as that person is of age then he is allowed to go play casino with this process they can be learning as well without anyone stopping them, the major concerned should be are they of age or not, if they are not then should be block and restricted from entering that house to play casino.
Children of nowadays are becoming too smart by trying to involved themselves in everything people are doing due to their rapid growth.

This is not about age and experience, it's about the law. Just because children are becoming an adult, you will see a 16 years old child looking like a 22 years old or even more and if you try to make any sexual life with them, you will go to jail because they are just minor, it's the same thing with gambling. Allowing a minor to gamble when they are not in the age bracket will look like you are exploiting them because they are not supposed to be their yet they allow them to play.

A child doesn't have the mind to take pain like an adult, a child aren't good in making decisions because there are some they would make that might not be the best for them, this is why a guardian is needed when necessary. You might think is not by experience but adulting has everything to do with gambling, you don't know how dumb a minor can be even when you think they are smart in making decisions.
This was exactly my taught on the whole reply when I read it although I was more aimed at what really causes the interest development of children towards gambling and that is the how globalized everything has become and how exposed everything seems now, you can actually bet a child is never actually a child anymore because of the exposure if that child and this is also tied to the Gambling industry too.

455  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Don't keep your hope in any news of bitcoin on: May 01, 2024, 09:46:09 PM
Sometimes the news of bitcoin maybe contradictory and when hoping on positive news of bitcoin you maybe backslide, because many people have thought that the price of bitcoin is now getting upright but it shock some people who hoped-for speculation of Bitcoin and believes that as people speculate on price of bitcoin that the price will be going up all through this year, whereas the price of bitcoin is depreciating in the market almost every day, so I don't know why bitcoin can not be depending on.


After the Bitcoin halving, it is expected that the price of Bitcoin start to dump drastically due to price correction, and that price can take the price of Bitcoin to an unfavourable depth to all investors who are holding, but at the same time it can be seen as an opportunity to accumulate more. I don't know where you got your idea from, but it is generally know for the price to dump after the halving. This is why we should verify the informations we get online especially from some influencers on X, and other social media before we take them into our pool of memory are share them as ideas, because one can be misled by just hearing or reading your post.

458  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What will you do if you find yourself in a similar situation like this? on: May 01, 2024, 08:20:38 PM
And let's say he somehow manages to replace the money, either by means of borrowing or working menial jobs to raise the money, will his parents ever trust him again to save large sum of money with him?

Assuming you find yourself in a similar situation as this, what will you do? How will you handle the situation to make your parents trust you again?


When trust is broken, it takes a miracle for the person you broke his or her trust to believe in you once again.  Let's assume he managed to complete back the money he used for gambling, at first they won't trust him but, he can regain their trust only when he possesses a changed character. Meaning if he quits gambling and keeps up a good behaviour. When it comes to money or any valuable asset it's difficult to trust someone after they must have broken your trust but in this case he is their son and the love of parents towards their children is different from what an outsider can give, that is if your parents actually have parental love. I had a friend who has similar issue and his parents forgave him because he changed his attitude.
459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lottery Fever. What are your range of thoughts in response to Lucky Winners? on: May 01, 2024, 08:07:13 PM
One of the mistake made by gamblers is to harbor the though of winning always. Gamble is a game of luck and you don't always get lucky, and that's why you need to spend your money wisely. I've come across some gambler who spend their money first on drinks after wining a bet, though we cannot all have the same mindset but a good spending habits is essential to all. Gamble can be fun at times, but that fun can only last when you spend wisely else you'll become addicted and even irresponsible in your gambling. The most important lesson to be learnt as gamblers is financial management.
460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Use your winning responsibly on: May 01, 2024, 07:47:17 PM
I remember my two big wins very well and I want to say that when you get a big win, it only fuels your passion for the game. After that, the calculation begins in your head of how much you could still earn like that, and you can't stop. It seems that luck has smiled on you, that you are on top of the world. And you start to believe that every next game will bring you even more joy and money. But for gambler, this is a dangerous misconception. The more he wins, the more he loses in the sense of reality. And in the end, the game becomes not only a passion, but also an addiction. . This is the whole danger of gambling - it captures you completely and completely, and sometimes even a big win is not able to stop this whirlpool of emotions and excitement. It is very unusual that such a colorful and beautiful world as gambling (especially casinos) is so dangerous.


That's gamble for you, and that's why it's only the strong minds that gamble without getting addicted. To some gamblers their big wins is just a motivation to keep going land they might even come to conclusion In using their win to make another 2 odd stake, the outcome of the bet is dependent on the behaviour of that gambler if he has no control, he is likely to go again and loss every thing. What the op did is one of the best decisions ever. Using money won from gambling to buy an equipment with long life span is very important as it will consistently remind you of that joyous moment where you hit the figures so high. The joy that comes from wining a good bet is unexplainable, as you feel fulfilled.
