Gambling is not beneficial for me but I think to others like to all those real gamblers is yes. Gambling is wrong to those people against it, and it is not wrong if you know to take it responsibly. I don't want to be addicted in gambling because I don't want to lose more money and less profits.

It isn't beneficial for me if I'm going to take it seriously and just go with the profit. But there are times that we can't gambling for being wrong. Because we had the total control and authority on what we wanted to do with our coins. It's a matter of control and wealth management. Just don't take gambling heavily so that it cannot make our lives very wrong.

If this is for real why they don't want to disclose the name of the player so that we can congratulate him. Well I can see that this is a type of marketing and maybe cloudbet did paid cointelegraph for making this article. I read the article and it is really lack of information and proof for me to believe. If this is real, then congrats to the "milestone" of cloud bet.

It's very easy to turn gambling into a profitable activity. There are more ways to do it but just choose what suits you. The first thing, I did know is by being an owner of a casino and that will make gambling as profitable for your part. And another thing is nothing but being an investor to a bankroll casino that will give you an advantage too.

I know how it is hard to make profits in gambling, we are willing to try everything, ways that can help us to win and there is no wrong in hoping. For me, having a big bank roll is required if you really want to play in a long run and make some profits whatever happens. This system can work but not as always.

It's for real, we know that there are a lot of ways,tips and strategies that are coming out just give us bigger chance of win. I want to support with what you said, if you'll use martingale it is still not enough to get some good win on it because you will probably end up fast when you don't have a bigger and good amount of bankroll.
Matingale will only give us a negative experience in gambling if it's not use with proper timing, there are games where we can effective employ this method, games such as sports betting because we can analyze it prior to putting our bets unlike dice where there is a house edge.
Games with house edge does not require a betting method but luck, if you are lucky winning comes easy regardless of the method.

Yes, that's what we need upon using martingale. Because there are people no doubt that are experiencing good results upon using martingale strategy. But I know that it is not happening for the most of us and those lucky guys that are using this strategy are very few. And still gambling will always a luck and skill base game where it's hard to predict when you'll be one of the winner.

4546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to make a good amount with 0.01BTC? on: March 11, 2017, 05:48:09 AM
There is a lot of way to make that bigger, gambling is the best, not gonna deny that, but the thing that I think is best is saving. Gambling have more risks than saving. Bitcoins price are still increasing every minute and I think there will be a high price of bitcoin for a while, and theres the acceptance of ETF.

There's no doubt that there are people believes that gambling will be the best way to make that small amounts grow easily. But for me, saving is good but that is just going to be a one time profit and you need to wait for a longer time before you will see the good profit from it. As long as you are comfortably gambling then you can grow that 0.01 BTC
4547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do small investments make sense? on: March 11, 2017, 05:31:56 AM
This is my opinion on the situation. I think investing a small amount is better than nothing.

Yeah this is what I've been believing all the time, it's better to have small investment rather than to have nothing at all.

You are allowed to learn about how the investment process and how it works while earning some income.

Yes, it's a matter of testing that investment on how it is going and if you'll see the potential profit upon investing bigger amount then just add it up.

If you were to gamble, you might be a winner the first day but you won't make a steady profit and have a bigger risk of losing.

Gambling isn't an investment, so I don't consider whether big or small amount you'll start with it.

Also SafeDice allows you to invest any amount in the house bankroll so you can invest 1 satoshi.

It's a literal small amount though.
4548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: March 11, 2017, 05:15:37 AM
When you guys are gambling and already doubled your bankroll, do you still play with the whole money you got or you take away half of your bankroll and start playing with your profit or not?

For me If I already get a double, I would take my money and not risk to spend it all again and lose all of it, but it really depends on the person if he/she wants to spend all of it again he/she might get it double again or lose it all, it all depends your luck  Wink

This is the safest thing to do and why on Earth you would risk the profit that you got already. And it's like you got the ROI already and it's better to roll it out without the original capital you got. In that case, the bankroll that you are rolling will not affect the original pocket money that you used when you started to gamble out.
4549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: March 11, 2017, 05:00:52 AM
Time and process is needed and if you are into the willingness that you want to quit. You can simply quit and over come your addiction. Because we know that those level of addictions is easy to win over if you are still in the early stage of it. But if you are getting worst, then you must need some help from your true friends,experts and family.

There are no such thing as asking for help. All you need to do is to have a solid determination that you are quitting and you are done. If you have even a slight thought of it then Im quite sure that you wont be able to quit. People that has put quite determination to quit is actually not going to go back to square one even when they have a thought of going back to it

No man is an island remember that. No matter how hard and solid your determination is but if you are not getting some support from your peers and family, then you are done. That will push you to make that determination void because no pushes to quit gambling. It doesn't matter how big or small your determination, support will be the best thing.
4550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What type of sports you love in sports betting and why? on: March 11, 2017, 04:49:07 AM
I bet on steam games like LoL or Dota 2, this season they have the Kiev Major which is really pumping me up. I bet on these games because I am a player too and it is really fun and exciting watching your team wins, it is also a way to get some moves from the professional players.

i have never tried LOL but i am a big fac of DOta2 and i have been betting on the games even before i found out about bitcoin. i was doing it either on gosugames with their ironwood branches and after they added item betting and other places. and when i started with bitcoin i did it with bitcoin too. and i really get why people say you have to like the games to be able to win more and enjoy sports betting.

Since last year I started to bet with e-sports betting mostly with Dota 2 games. From the Dota 1 days, I do love to bet with it and I'm actually a player of it and supports my favorite team. As of now I have two major sports to support, first is with this season of NBA and e-sports. Though there are times that my predictions aren't that accurate but I love doing it.

4552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know if a gambling site is scam or not? on: March 10, 2017, 06:35:08 AM
You can research about it in the internet and you can find the right answer about this site, if it's spam or not. Anyways, there is things you can find it yourself by analyse the site.
I mean the https, facebook page or twitter page.
The mechanism of this site, etc...  and the best thing is by asking gamblers, which they gamble there.

OP is asking how to identify if a gambling site is a scam not a spam. Spam is very far and different from scam. And facebook pages and twitter page isn't that enough to know if that site is a scam. They will tell everything good about their site so they aren't going to say the real thing about their shady activity so that's not reliable.

How does one Put down Gambling for good?
It is very hard top for good with gambling, especially if your addicted to it.
If you want to stop for good with it then you have to find something else for it's place like sporting or cooking.

I don't think that it is really hard to quit gambling for good. Since I'm coming to the point of becoming addicted but still I manage to overcome this. And I have a plan of quitting gambling for good. If you got a lot of profit already in gambling you just need to take sometime for doing some interesting things like traveling out to the places that you want to reach.
That's really hard but quitting can be done, it takes time and there is a process you need to do, also the level of addiction do matter a lot. If you have been addicted for so long, for sure that is going to be a long process and the response of an addicted gambler is necessary for the progress.
The reason why we are addicted is because we are weak but in quitting we need to be strong.

Time and process is needed and if you are into the willingness that you want to quit. You can simply quit and over come your addiction. Because we know that those level of addictions is easy to win over if you are still in the early stage of it. But if you are getting worst, then you must need some help from your true friends,experts and family.

A online game use bitcoin as payment?

I'm a bit confuse with your question. We are in gambling discussion so I guess you are pointing out those "online game" as bitcoin gambling sites or casino's. And well, since we are in bitcoin gambling, casino's are actually paying and receiving bets with bitcoin and as well as alt coins. If you are asking about online game, I know steam does.
4555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: March 09, 2017, 03:22:33 AM
Well i don't have any big rule or sign when to stop. I usually stop gambling when i either lost everything  what i deposited, or when i win much. Of course i will always stop when i am bored of gambling for that day. Looks like i don't have any rule, but i don't feel like i am addicted to gambling.

I would suggest that don't always implement that attitude that you are just going to stop when you will lose. When you got some decent amount already don't try to ask for more because that will just lead you into frustration and it can even lose the capital that you've got. Well I guess it's better for you to feel boredom everyday so that you won't gamble anymore.
I think one of popular readon why people start to gamble is because they feel bored and want an entertainment.
And then they choose to gamble as their entertainment, so makes yourself feel boredom is just make you closer to gambling.
Stop gambling whenever you feel you have reached the limit and could make your situation worse.

Not all the people are starting that way. As far as I know, most of the people are starting to gamble because they are taking the plan for the thinking of they can become filthy rich with it. But not knowing that in the long run, not all the plans that they are thinking are becoming successful. Because gambling itself is the one that stops them when they don't have something to gamble anymore for that day.

Yes not at all because for me i played gambling in a play safe mode of the game to be able to achieved my profit goal in the future. Because for me profit goal is an easy way to achieved winning side at the end of the day. Therefore there is a chance of winning for over 70% if you play safe mode of the game.

There's no even safe mode when it comes to gambling, that's just applicable when you will restart a PC that has windows operating system. And I'm curious on how you are playing in safe mode in gambling because we know that this isn't just something that exist. Gambling is risky and also stopping on it is giving risk to the minds of the gamblers.

4557  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Paypal a scam? on: March 09, 2017, 02:43:43 AM
If PayPal really was just a scam then it would not be one of the biggest payment gateways (if not the biggest) in the world. Clearly whoever you heard from must have been doing something sketchy on their accounts. I have used PayPal for many years and have not had any problems with my account that could not be fixed with a simple customer support email (minor stuff).

Yeah they will not going to be this far if they've got some scam accusations throughout their entire service. There's no way that PayPal will be turning out to be a scam, it's a matter of business and trust. And they are the most trusted payment processor for a lot of years already and I'm sure that they will not do such as shady things just for the sake of one time profit.

I don't think that I'm an addicted gambler but I guess I'm near to that point. I just can't stop for this day if I'm not going to visit a casino or a dice site. But still I know my limitations hopefully that I'm not going to be severe just like those people that are losing all they've got because of their addiction in gambling.
4559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investing in casinos on: March 08, 2017, 06:52:26 AM
-snip-
investing money in casino sight is good but still it is too much risky and specially if you do not know about the casino, because here are so much scam casino sights where they are just collecting money form the people and then disappear. therefore you need to have good study about the gambling site and only then you can invest money there.

It's risky if you are lack of experience and the risk taking ability. But believe me just do invest into reliable and reputable casino's. Many are making good interest from them monthly depending on how much you will invest with them. And the advantage will always on you because the we know that gamblers will always lose in the long run and the house will benefit.
The only problem that comes to my mind is that the house can still cheat you, not just by scamming and running away but rather in a much smarter way.

Basically it was discussed in some other thread also, suppose client sets the seed and site sets the server seed then the site can gamble of their own and since they know both the seeds they will show as if the gambler won a lot of money.

We know about it, since they are the ones who are operating and not you. It's just a matter of trust and choosing the best trusted and reliable site that you are going to invest. I do trust the sites that I'm investing and I will going to invest in my bitcoins. This is passive income but the monitoring is still needed with it.
4560  Economy / Economics / Re: Can we Manipulate Bitcoin price? on: March 08, 2017, 06:09:46 AM
Sure you can, remember bitcoin found for freedom, all we can do. We can manipulate the bitcoin if we have sufficient stock, everyone will agree and do not complain if you can control it.
Manipulating the price of bitcoins is the basic element that controls the price of bitcoins. Somewhere I read earlier that china's some rich guys or company took huge amount of bitcoins and hence made the price fly and this helped them since the rise in price meant that more guys would buy bitcoins and hence once they see a good price they just dump their coins.

Just like what is happening now, I think someone is manipulating the price of bitcoin. Since there is an important event that is coming for a few days left. It's what many are believing that we can manipulate bitcoins price but that is just applicable for those big players in bitcoin. This is not applicable for us who are just small time bitcoin traders.
