Most probably if we are more positive, we might attract good luck in life and that could give you the benefit of making good money even if you are not that active. There is always risk, we always make decision to be better both in life and in gambling, try to think positively and just enjoy life and gambling.
I do not like this idea of positive thinking when talking about gambling, there are much more positive think with gambling addicts, they are losing but having more positive thinking to hit the jackpot, but they continue to lose more and more until the positive thinking got them into trouble.

Gambling is not about positive thinking, it is about learning how to balance it with normal life in a way it will not affect our normal life and not getting addicted.

-Development of Risk taking ability; to win big in life, you must be willing to try, and gamblers have so developed their risk taking ability.
This was the way that got me addicted, gambling should not be about winning big in life, it should be about fun and entertaining. I found good mind when I found gamble as just a way to have fun, this helped me to cure my addiction.

Development of the ability to quickly let go of things and move on
Not a good ability, it is a way to addiction. This was what was happening to me when I was addicted. Now I am using the money I will not even think about if I lose it to gambling because I use very little amount of money that is affordable for me. If I lose just that chicken chnage, I am still happy.

Positive mentality
I have positive thinking more about my business with little risks not gambling. I do not take gamble seriously.

Consistency/ Not quiting attitude
I don't take gambling serious, then I can no more quit like when I was addicted, to help me deal with the addiction at that time.
4403  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: 1xbit.com website want to steal my deposit money? on: November 14, 2021, 08:05:03 PM
1xbit is not a trustworthy gambling site, you can see its campaign users on this forum tagged with negative trust by reputable users and users that have experienced the bad side of the site that result to scam, the tags are to notify people not to trust the site and avoid scam.
4404  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you know if current prices are corrected or going to correct? on: November 14, 2021, 11:23:50 AM
The current prices at any given time, how do you know if they are going to correct or are already corrected?
At times it is just best to hold, because if you hold no matter how the price decrease, it will still increase back than when you started to hold.

Trading is difficult, the price of bitcoin in short time period is difficult to predict. But if the price of a coin has significantly increased, it is normal for the price to decrease but not to the point it started to increase, the price will still be above.
4405  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Who are the top non-KYC requiring exchanges and P2P? on: November 14, 2021, 11:18:44 AM
You can follow what is posted above already, if you do not need kyc exchanges, you will have to go for decentralized exchanges like localcryptos, hodlhodl or bisq.

For altcoin based and not fiat exchanges, you can use these exchanges below

Top Decentralized Exchange Tokens by Market Capitalization
https://coinmarketcap.com/view/decentralized-exchange/

For trading and no verification like identity card, use this exchange

Kucoin
FTX

Paxful started asking for ID as well, so that leaves you with LocalCryptos.com or there is also BISQ but I believe it has way less liquidity.
How about hodlhodl, it is also good.

Yes, you can't sell them.
There is not rule that stated that merit can't be sold, but forum members against it because it can lead to scam or used in a way low quality posts will be given merit by the same person with two accounts using one account to merit the other. But theymos made it clear that merit source should not sell merit, it is against this forum for merit source to be selling merit, they should not sell merit.
4407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - 2nd Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 14, 2021, 07:04:57 AM
I agree. Right now the table is still very close and chances are equal for pretty much all the teams in the upper half of the table, but I don't expect Schalke to become stable enough that they can really compete for rank 1 or 2. Maybe there is a good chance they will be fighting for rank 3, but even that is going to become tough.
I have always preferred to also still follow the main league which is Bundesliga, but this thread just made me checked 2-Bundesliga today and not long ago, I was surprised that Schalke 04 has relegated because I always see the club on the main league before, but it's been long I have not been following the second league in Germany. 2-Bundesliga is very competitive, clubs like St. Pauli and Jahn Regensburg are showing good strength, but this is just the beginning to me, Schalke 04 will likely try its best to get back to Bundesliga.
4408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 14, 2021, 06:51:33 AM
I have no problem with creating a thread like this, but for me, I want a dedicated discussion on a particular boxing match so we can dwell on the strength and weaknesses of each fighter and give hints or tips for those who like to bet on that particular fight, the flow of discussion will always be on-topic about one particular match.
I did not post here before because I was thinking maybe this thread might be deleted, exactly what you mean was what I wanted to comment.

It has been like that on this thread that any big coming boxing match will be posted here by any member, then other members will discussed about it. This is a good option than taking all the matches that worth each thread to only be one thread.

So what about new matches that will come up when this thread is long, how would it be updated even without anything like poll. I think we should just do it the way we have been doing it before rather than making it in a way some people will not be notified of new matches and ask not effectively discussing about the upcoming matches if compared to each having its own thread.

If OP see new matches coming up, then he can also create a thread about it because I can see what he created being discussed on individual thread rather packing it up into a single thread.
4409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French presidential election betting on: November 14, 2021, 06:42:56 AM
I haven't used futuur before but I know it is a reputable site on this forum, using it will just be good. But I wonder why all other betting sites both fiat and crypto shouldn't be taken all presidential elections for gambling on their betting sites because it is just atl type of bet many people will always be interested in.

Nowadays, political betting is quite known to all of us, and therefore, I could expect that some betting platforms will also open for that option (politics betting) since it will also add clients and make a profit for it. But I think it was so early to make a bet and I guess, some platforms aren't open yet for this, maybe early next year.
According to what I heard, the first round of the 2022 french presidential election will hold on April 10 2022, that make your statement to be true, not all gambling sites that will support the betting have yet listed it on their betting sites because the day is still far.

I want to get only erc-20, i know that the fee for trc-20 and omni is less, but erc-20 is what i am concerned about.
I have not used USDT omini layer before but the fee is not less is what I have known, the TRC20 fee is less and will be the best way to buy just $15-$30 worth if USDT if you do not want to pay much on fee.

4412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NO KYC Sportbooks? on: November 13, 2021, 01:13:37 PM
It seems to me that it is enough that the tax is paid by those who are always in the black - the casino.
The government will always look for means to earn more and more from citizen than most countries even do not care about there citizens individually. I too will go with your opinion about this, I believe most people that are gambling are losing, that is why betting companies are always on the rise, they always grow and growing faster. The government can better just tax the betting companies instead of the citizens. But I guess that it is possible the governments are also making use of the tax to discourage people from gambling, but I am also thinking I am 90% not right about it.
4413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling fraud and it settlements on: November 13, 2021, 08:50:30 AM
As for legal procedures I hardly have seen anyone winning against a gambling company that has scammed them.So the answer also to this lies in the paragraph above.
Can you check this link:

Online gambler wins court case to claim £1.7m prize after Betfred refused to pay
https://amp.theguardian.com/society/2021/apr/07/online-gambler-wins-court-case-to-claim-17m-prize-after-betfred-refused-to-pay

Like I also mentioned, better to use a reputed site to avoid issues, but if a gambling company is registered in a country, you can take such dispute to court after consulting your lawyer.
4414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NO KYC Sportbooks? on: November 13, 2021, 08:32:23 AM
There are basically two reasons to avoid KYC:
1.) Taxes. Some gamblers do not want to pay them in principle, and some run away from the laws of their countries with insane tax rates. I understand both of these positions.
2.) Bypassing the bans of states that think they know better than you what you can and cannot. In many places gambling is prohibited, so people from such jurisdictions are looking for ways to satisfy their desires.
If a gambler is avoiding kyc because he is trying to avoid taxes, that is very wrong, it is done in a way if someone is losing and gain but not up to what he lost, no tax will be paid at all. But well if someone lose and not gain, the government has nothing to pay in return, this is another reason how the world is not balanced.

These are the two reasons why people do not like kyc, but it is not only the two reasons, some people just do not like kyc because of privacy reasons which is really worth it.

4415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling fraud and it settlements on: November 13, 2021, 08:14:24 AM
My question is what are the legal procedures to follow in a gambling fraud cases?
I will like to first say something about the issue of not reading the terms and conditions of each gambling sites someone is using, the terms and conditions must be read to know if the accusation is scam or not. There are some times you will think the gambling site wants to scam, it may even be scam-like but if already existing in their terms and conditions, then will not be seen as scam even if taken to court.

What matters most is money, if you know you have done the right thing, not againsting the terms and conditions, you can take the gambling site to court, but this will require money and not an option for people that have no enough money.

It is very good to use a reputed gambling site to avoid scam from betting companies.
4416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: EFL English Championship League Thread 2021/2022 on: November 13, 2021, 07:07:09 AM
This was very interesting last round of Championship with Bournemouth returning back with win and dominant performance, they are still in first place with two points more than second place Fulham.
It was a very interesting week, though I found championship not as interesting as EPL, but I think I will also have to contribute to make this thread active.

Bournemouth is trying, they make a good team in Championship and they can make it to EPL again this season. But we know that the third, fourth, fifth and six top clubs will have to compete with themselves for third position, Fulham yet in third and West Brom in second position, just at 17th matches played this season and going to over 40 matches to be played. This is a very real competition, but will not be a surprise for me if two out of these three clubs are found in EPL next season.
4417  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Meet bots asking you for otp on: November 13, 2021, 06:52:52 AM
Don't give sensitive info irrespective what the source is.
If bot call me, it will bring more fear and suspicion, I will finally know it is from scammers if asking for information pertaining to myself, but some people may not know how dangerous giving out information pertaining to them to a stranger that the stranger can use against them.

This still lies in the fact that we should avoid phishing but I always wonder how people will be scammed this way, though the email phishing can be more effective especially to newbies that are just starting to know crypto.

We should avoid such calls, text message, email, even whatsapp, telegram and many other social...
4418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2021/2022 on: November 12, 2021, 07:56:24 AM
I think it's possible, 11 out of 38 games it's possible for Arsenal to win the EPL this year. Arsenal still have a chance to catch Chelsea or Man City points because they are only 6 points different. If Arsenal can win against Chelsea and Man city or the teams above them they can get the top spot.
This will never happen, Arsenal are not surprising and I am waiting for Arsenal defeat.

But I also doubt Arsenal can win against Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City with the players Arsenal have. Also don't forget West Ham are in the top 5 now other teams have to watch out for it.
This are the clubs that will easily trashed Arsenal flawlessly, Arsenal played with Watford, Leicester and Aston Villa in the last three matches, home matches for Arsenal while playing with the small clubs like Watford and Aston Villa, that is what helped them recently. Arsenal is also on and off as I have been repeatedly saying on this forum which is just the truth. Even if Arsenal is on the top as the first, I can still not choose the club to be the one to win EPL title.
4419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 12, 2021, 07:46:33 AM
Still can't prediction which one will be win between Napoli Vs Inter Milan, national FIFA matchday two weeks later and almost Napoli and Inter Milan player participated for their country will back to the club without injury,
I will be more sentimental about this, the last time Napoli won the league title was in 1987 and 1990, but Napoli had worked so hard to win ever again but Juventus had been their obstacle. I remembered 2 seasons not long ago when Napoli was hot and played good in the Seria A league, but Juventus was their obstacle in the two seasons.

Only 12 matches played yet, and with 20 clubs in the league, 38 matches will be played, remaining 26 matches to be played in this season, that is quite still more than the game played, the club to win might have been coming out clearly but no one knows the club that will still win, Napoli and AC Milan just have more probability of winning.

But if the two clubs are the ones left to win, I will sentimentally go for Napoli.
4420  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Everyone can get 20% discount on Newscrypto on: November 12, 2021, 07:17:40 AM
What do you think about this platform?
Should I take a subscription? Maybe someone has used this platform?
All I know is that some people are using this means to scam, I did not learn trading from anyone, I learned it myself by reading articles and watching videos. On the trading platforms you want to use, they will have articles and vidoes for people which is meant for new traders.

But most importantly you have to start trading with just only little amount of money, new traders always lose for months before knowing ways to earn profit, but if no profit still earned continuously after months, then you can quit trading for investing.

If you like you can take the risk, but there can be scam involved in what you said and it is an option I can never go for.
