441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: July 11, 2017, 07:33:41 AM
The answer is simple - your lucky day is when you win more than lose. I call it a lucky day if I manage to double my initial bankroll - that is all I care about.
Yes, in a way it's true. But we cant know if we are lucky today or not. We cannot predict the future and we can know what will happen next. But if the winnings are more than losing thats can be considered as a lucky day. And if you win consecutively it is luck you have there.

I don't know about that, because there are times when that gambler is so lucky even if he is having a lose than a win. Even if you track the history of a lucky gambler, they always lose more than they always win, saying that, they are don't care if they won or lose, what they want is their win or profit.
Typical gambler do not usually track their past betting records, mostly they remembered their winnings because they do not have that most of the time.
With that, I guess they will be safe than remembering your loses because most likely it will result to massive gambling due to the fact that they want to be on the profitable side which I know a hard goal to achieve. If it's me, I would rather forget the loses and remember the fun, it's safe that way.
Yes it's not usual for us to remember or track our past gambling results. All I have remember is when I won big in slot machine and some sports betting. Yes I agree that you have to remember the fun and excitement because that's all gambling is to promote fun and entertainment.
442  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: July 11, 2017, 07:27:54 AM
for me it is better to invest, regardless if you are rich or not you should know how to handle your money and how you will spend it
i was able to earn some money by investing into something, time is really one of the big factor on this. so if you are trying to gamble your money try investing first to know the difference

If you're not really interested in gambling then it's good for you because if you're really want to invest your money there are other ways to do it just don't put your money in gambling because it's not a good option for you to profit. Better invest it in trading where you can have a higher chance to make profit all you need is a good knowledge in trading.
443  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: July 11, 2017, 07:23:31 AM
Basically too addiction in gambling is not good in my opinion. But it is difficult to remove the addiction. The flavor of addiction arises from a sense of dissatisfaction, a sense of wanting to win high, feel curious, too over on predicting a winning, and so on. About that i think should reduce the addiction with more various activities anymore other than gambling.

Yes addiction is like a cancer whch you really can't take away just like that. That's why there are rehab centers where they help people who gets addicted but of course it's up to you if you really want to get away from gambling for good. People can help you out but it's still upon on you on how you will turn away from gambling.
444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: July 11, 2017, 07:19:38 AM
To make a good deal of profit, you must be smart and choose what type of game you want to gamble on, this must be an area of expertise you are good at and dont be greedy, when you become greedy, you eventually lose everything.

Correct. Let us say you love sports. In this case, basketball. Then you can do sports betting because you have more knowledge of the game - the players, coaching staff, ranking, and etc. This way, you have that advantage because you have some extra knowledge compared to just games based on pure luck.
But of course, put on your mind that advantage doesn't mean you will always win. It is still a gambling, even how hard you analyze the game/match. There is still a big posibilty that you will have a lossing streak. There is no easy way to win in gambling.
Advantage is still a big factor to win, you do not need to win all the time because it's an impossible task, all you have to ask is in the long run you have more wins compared to your loses. If I can do that in sports betting I could be rich by now, but it seems like it's hard to win although games are played based on skills, I admit I do not have the skills because I cannot prove it with a profit.
Yes I agree there are times you'll get lost in gambling depending also on which game you play. Sports betting might help you out getting more wins than losing only if you know the type of sports you're really good at. Just control your bets only if the game you are really familiar with.
445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: July 11, 2017, 07:14:01 AM
,as i can remember before when i was still playing gambling almost the while time, i have suffered so many losses instead of winnings. What's inside my mind is that after i lost i would regain my losses by the next turn, unluckily i always lose instead of winning. Just because of greediness i suffered so many losing streaks and end up having empty handed.

That is why it is not a good advice to chase our loses in gambling. In fact, the best way to gamble is just to play it for entertainment and not as our main source of income. The problem really starts when we treat gambling as a source of income.
Usually the outcome is not good when we chase, we should learn from our mistakes in the past and stop that stupidity.
The key here is only by knowing how to control your emotion and you will be safe in gambling then.

This is the common mistakes among people where they chasing their loses in gambling. It's not really good for us to follow this behavior. What we really need to learn is to control your ego and know your limitations.. controlling yourself towards gambling will somehow help you control your bettings.
446  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: July 11, 2017, 07:09:23 AM
No it can't. It was not designed that way. Had it been then casinos everywhere would shut down. Infact they wouldn't be around to begin with.  They will have all lost their money to long term gamblers. It just wouldn't make sense if gambling were profitable in the long run. You wouldn't have anywhere to gamble had that been the truth.
but i think it is different from person to person, as here in my area there are some people whose  income is only from gambling, they are even supporting their families with the income that come from gambling. therefore gambling can also be profitable in long term but not for everyone. in fact those peole who have good luck can make a lot of money from bitcoin. becasue for most of the gmabling games we are depending on our luck. so if we are lucky we will surely make money in gambling.

Surely that is not just luck based if they have been doing it for a long time. What game are they playing?
I have a guess that it will be poker.
Poker needs some skill and you wont get to the final 2 without having it.
Luck is just an addition to this game. Even with bad pair of cards you could somehow take over the table and win it.
Somehow there are people who spend their life on knowing how the game circulate.

Yes it really depends on what gambling game are they playing.. another example is sports betting whereas you need to analyze both matching teams and predict who will win the game. Yes luck is an addition where if sometimes strong team get lose to their opponent because of luck. But if you're careful to bet maybe it will ne profitable in the long run.
447  Other / Archival / Re: Which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? on: July 11, 2017, 07:01:08 AM
For me skill-based gambling is more risky than trading. Because any form of gambling is risky. Although you can say that trading is risky but with proper research and knowledge you can remove that risk and in exchange to profit
Yes indeed mate.. gambling is much riskier than trading. No matter how skilled or experienced you are in gambling the odds of winning is still low. When in trading the risks will be less if you have good knowledged and knows how to predict were the chance of profit is higher.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: June 30, 2017, 04:04:51 PM
Gambling give lessons in life because you know what is risky when you gamble. It gives lessons to teaches us how to manage our time and money in gambling. Because we realize the importance of money and how we earn money profitable. We learn how to accept in lose or a win sometimes we learn not to fail. The lessons is how to become successful and never afraid of being lose. It teaches how to become happy and control our self. Because gambling gives us opportunity to have fun and earn profit. We learn the effect of gambling in our life and importance of time.
This is true mate. You will learn a lot in gambling not only in terms of skills but also in decision making and lessons about mistakes you did in which for me you'll become a better person once you learn a lot from it. Well I did not say it applies to all people who gambles but in my experience in gambling this is some of the things I learned.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: June 30, 2017, 04:02:12 PM
If someone which follows the set of rules and be discipline enoff. Can people make 50-100 $ a day just gambling in online casino.....?
It depends since there is no assurance in gambling. In just a minute, you can lose everything have in gambling thus it's not profitable in ling term but in short term since gambling's prupose isn't for regular game, it's a decent game.
This is true and this what really happens to some. There's no guarantee if you'll always in gambling for me it's all depends on your luck so that's why it's really not profitable in the long run. It's not advisable for you to profit in gambling just learn and trading it would be much better than gambling.
450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: June 30, 2017, 03:58:26 PM
What are some the more idiotic and stupid mistakes that you know you shouldn't have made but did anyway. Yes this includes other none gambling stuff like sending btc to the wrong address. I'm interested to find out the stupid things other people do.  Roll Eyes
in my worst experince in gambling, I accidentally maximized my bet in a roll dice and it suddenly lose. I regret those thing and became more careful now in placing bets.
That's the saddest part in gambling where you know that you'll win and place all your bets in it then you suddenly lose and the feeling of it is really agonizing and all you do is to blame yourself because of what happen. I also experience it mate then I didn't do it again since I learned my lesson.
451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport is the easiest to wager/win on: June 30, 2017, 03:54:52 PM
The easiest game to win is the sport that you know the best, so if you have the favorite sport that probably can increase your chance of winning in sport bet, because you will know the strong point and the weak point of the team or player you bet
Yes I agree with you mate. It's really depend on what sports you're really familiar with like majority of people knows basketball and football.. and you know which team has the higher chance of winning because you already know how to analyze because really familiar with players of each team. So for me it really depends on which sports you know how to play.
452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: June 30, 2017, 03:48:16 PM
Well, when i win, i feel like i've managed to take off the burden, feel relieved and feel the great happiness. And after experiencing that the incident it was wouldn't to accept defeat again, maybe this is relatively happening to everyone. Later on i felt that i would win again and feel the winning again on another days at gambling.

When I win in gambling there would always be that spur of the moment relief that you would not lost all your bet. Whether its poker playing for a few coins or in BitCoin where the stakes are much higher. I would always feel a little comfort knowing thatI still have money and then some left.

I am sure everybody feel happy when they win in gambling.
Winning has a beautiful feeling we can't explain it in our words.
Not only we win in gambling, in our life in every matters, whenever we win, it has a strange feeling,
Sometime we feel we are on the sky and sometime we are flying on the air.
Really, i feel flying on the air when i win a big bitcoins in the bet.

Yes everyone of us feels the same when we win to anything like in gambling it's really above and beyond especially if we hit the jackpot in which for me no words can ever explain to what I will feel. Because I'm thinking a lot of things that I can do when I have that amount of money you're going crazy when you're at that moment I think.
453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you buy for money won? on: June 30, 2017, 03:34:23 PM
Yesterday i bought a lot of Burst coin using the Bitcoin that i won in one gambling site. I had a good run using a dice strategy i found here in this forum. I withdrawed my winning and never bet again because i know if i will continue playing i will lose those Bitcoin. Better to buy something than to lose it and let your hardship goes to nothing.

That's a good thing you did. Withdrawing the money you won and not betting it again. This is part of self discipline. Gamblers should know when to withdraw and walk away from the table. Some gamblers just keep on gambling thinking they are invincible and they can clean out the casinos with their "winning strategy" but in the end it was the other way around and the casinos cleaned out their accounts.
This is a safest way for us gamblers to withdraw your winnings and not betting again because if you got greedy and continue to play then you'll lose your winnings and start blaming yourself. Just make sure to stay this way when it comes to controlling yourself towards gambling and once you jave a lot of money then you can buy what you want for yourself or for your family.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: June 30, 2017, 03:26:02 PM
From my personal experience, gambling brings more losses and can not be viewed as a permanent source of income. Only a few can win, but not everyone can do something useful with this money.
Yes it's not a good source of income. Gambling for me is just for fun and entertainment because if you win perhaps you have a good luck but in the long run you will end up losing more money and once you lose a lot of money then it is going to wrong.
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: June 30, 2017, 03:21:59 PM
If we do both our concentrations will be splitted, would be better to choose one of them. No doubt we know if gambling is great ways for making money fast and trading is good too, just for this it takes knowledge and patience to make a profit.

That's stupid. Why the hell your concentration will be splitted? Oh, I need to do 2 things, that's sooo haaaard, better to do nothing.

I agree, you can do both and there would be nothing wrong with it. You can always play and invest at the same time. Just make time for each one and don't really do it "at the same time" like at 1pm you gamble and invest at the same time. That would really cause a lot of problems if you do so. Schedule a time for both and you'll be fine.

That's right if you are gambling or trading then you need to give your active participation in both of them as you cannot simply put your money in it and forget it and in trading you cannot afford to miss any single fluctuation and if you do then you will miss an opportunity of making profits.

If one is going for quick profits from trading, then they need to worry about every minute and second, and it is almost same as gambling. Because in this kind trading no one can predict the prices very accurately and mostly depends on luck. But you buy some good coins and wait for prices to go up then no need to look at the prices every second.

Quick profits is not that hard in trading but in gambling it is  always hard. There is greater risk to lose more money in gambling than if you are trading. Though in trading it requires a high level of skill to do which is not required in gambling. In gambling you just need to roll the dice, and you're either poor or rich. That is so different from trading.

Yes I agree you just have to learn trading once you think you're good at it then you'll have a great future making profit in trading not like in gambling all you need is luck to win.. though they are some games that requires skills and strategies like poker but some games you just have to roll like roulettes and dice games. Both trading and gambling have risks but you can minimize the risk in trading if you're going to be good at it.
456  Other / Archival / Re: Do you think that you're addicted to gambling? on: June 30, 2017, 03:15:03 PM
I'm not addicted to gambling because i know how to control my self to gamble. I know gamble is also profitable and easy to earn money. Because i know gamble is many risky and more advantages. I know when to stop like if i win i stop it first and the next i will continue again. In gambling it should know the strategy not to become addicted and know the importance of money and i can control my self in gambling. Gambling is for fun and makes me enjoy. I think i'm not addicted but i was happy to gamble.
Good for you mate if you are not addicted to gambling. Just make sure to stay the way you think about gambling because if you lose your ground and everything will not be in your favor when you play then you'll end up losing and then you'll become addicted because you will be chasing your loses in the long run and you might not be able to recover till you ruin your life. Just stay in your course then you'll be fine.
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a problem gambler? on: June 30, 2017, 02:55:25 PM
Gambling for me is not a problem. I don't often gamble. I can see how it can become a problem though. I can see if I had carried in making big bets I would be in trouble and in too far and spend time chasing loses probably ending up in more loss.

It's good for you mate for keeping the distance when it comes to gambling yes because otherwise you'll probably end up losing a lot of money. I also have the same attitude towards gambling just want to have fun and entertainment even if I win a lot I make sure that I control myself not being greedy in the long run knows my limits. 
458  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: June 30, 2017, 02:49:21 PM
I've became interested in playing dice games with my BTC but every time I play I lose. Is there something that I'm doing wrong, or dice games are supposed to be like that? (sorry I'm new to this) Isn't there a guide or tutorial where I could get started playing these games? I don't know how this really works. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks  Wink

So far, I like dicecoin.io  Cheesy

I've played dice games and tried different betting strategies like martingale and some variations. Martingale seems to work for a while but the more you play the more likely you will have a long sting of losses. And the bets are so small that it takes forever to make any profit then you have a big loss and lose all the profits. The bottom line is that there is no betting strategy that will increase your odds.

There's no such thing as a strategies when you play like this type of game in gambling it's still depend on how lucky you are. These offered strategies will somehow lure you just to stay and play the game but in the end you will still lose. Better try to play a different type of game which will give more chance for you to win like sports betting.
459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: June 29, 2017, 04:26:49 PM
The desire to win more and more money from gambling sites is something that attracts me to keep on depositing over and over again, most users probably knew that the house edge will eventually took back the profits we made earlier from the site, but I guessed the greed to win more just kept on ringing in our mind, maybe greediness is really a devil that needs a lot of determination to overcome.

That is why you are going to regret your mistake. I was like that as well until I forget about everything, I spend alot of money just to find myself desperate. I played to win and hope to win alot of money but all I get in return is desperation. Thats the reason that Im playing for fun so that I wont feel desperate again
Making ourselves enjoyed is the only sure reward we can get in gambling, playing gambling does not guarantees winning even we played alot so we just need atleast an assurance that we can get something from it so make sure to have fun.
Exactly because that is the only way where we can last in the game, we gamble for fun and not for profit.
Trying to win and make it as your source of income is good but we should know if we have the skills to do it consistently and if not we have to stop and shift our interest to a more fun activity which is gambling for pure entertainment, we keep gambling for money even without the skills we will surely go bankrupt in time.
Everyone tries to win in gambling because no one like to become a loser. But not everyone will play just for money there is some gamblers play to come out with their work stress and other reasons. And don't make gambling your source of income if you win money in gambling just calm down. With this reference, if you try to play more games I am sure you will face the worst situation.
but i think very little number of people have that intention because most of the people want to make money and play gambling only for money and, they do not have any other intention. if they will make money they forget all their stress and tension but when they lose money then become more trap by their tension.
That's true majority of gamblers do play because of money they want to make a profit on it but most of the time they didn't ended up too well because they always lose their money and that would lead to addiction then later they will chase their loses so that's why they keep coming back hoping to win the game just to recover their resources.
460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: In Gambling, Money is not everything on: June 29, 2017, 04:16:45 PM
I beleive that money is the most reason why people gamble. They playing gambling because they need money, they thinking to much for them to win the game because of money, they make their own strategies and skills because of money. In Gambling, Money is Everything. That was the main reason. Think of this, you cannot play gambling without your money. You need money, so money is everything.
Yes I agree on this.. most players do gamble because of money and they want to make a profit when they gamble. But there are still few people who want to gamble just to have fun and entertainment and also some newbie who just want to try gambling. But majority of the gamblers they do gamble because of money.
