4641  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's your biggest loss gambling? on: April 30, 2016, 03:12:57 AM
I think my biggest loss sportsbetting was when I had a parlay going on and I needed the last team to win. They were leading right about the very end when the equalizer happened and I lost the parlay. The wager itself wasn't that big but the odds were great and I am still upset to this day that parlay didn't make it...
That's it, parlay is fun especially when you bet with a lot of teams to compose your parlay, I have also a similar experience with you with my last leg of parlay lost. Although I only bet with around 0.001 worth of BTC but the payout is also around over 1 BTC if my memory still serves me right, I was really excited that time and planning to hedge the last game but I decided to let it go and the result is I lost.

I do believe to go for big or go home.Gambling is to make huge profit when you see chance.I am with those who say all in many times works.Instead of loosing money in installments is better to win or loose once.
You got balls brother, you are right for the reason that the longer you gamble the lesser you chances of winning. You must doing it for sole profit because if individual want to feel the thrill gambling brings then he usually do it by installment of bet. The longer he last the longer he enjoys.
It is just rare to see people do all in, most of the gamblers here would like to stay to long to enjoy their spare time. Maybe this would really want instant, and I hope he can manage the loses if that would happen.
That's right. Most people intention why they do gambling is not to make profits instantly but to enjoy what they are playing for a longer period of time, win or lose. But for all those whi are risk taker to go with an instant big profits, then they do all in.
Which is not good most of the time, since it will leave you in blank mode if you lose your bets, that is easy to say but when experience the defeat with your ALL IN huge bets then that would probably change your world for a moment.
I agree with you brother, all in is just for people with strong emotional control. You can never know what you can do to yourself if you lost a huge bet due to all in. All in is not fun if you cannot afford to manage your loses. It is only fun if you do it purely to entertain yourself.
4643  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: April 30, 2016, 03:07:18 AM
Set a limit of win and loss per day like .1btc a day then withdraw. If you win/lose .1btc come back tomorrow. But that setting of limit will only work if you really can control yourself.
Just do gambling to be smart, if you lose let it a learning experience to be successful in gambling, look for a gambling form where you can have a good advantage. I recommend to bet in sports as it is very exciting and you can find value to make it at your advantage.

Nice win for my team miami and pacers today, they are heading for game 7. I am really excited to watch this. I think the pacers and miami will advance in the second round of the playoffs. On the other hand, I don't think their is hope for the clippers team to take the game back at home. Go go go!!

My prediction would be:

Miami vs Pacers = Miami Advance
Cleveland vs Atlanta = Cleveland Advance

Cleveland and Miami in the finals is fun to watch. Hope I am right guys!!

Online casino is the best place you can enjoy while profiting from it. It the most promising industry nowadays that bitcoin is becoming more popular due to its stability. You can diversify your investing by choosing the most trusted online casino and I am sure that if you do proper research prior to investment, you will gain profit.
4646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How long do you play per day gambling like Dice ? on: April 29, 2016, 03:16:33 AM
Playing a longer hours in a dice casinos is like a suicide, we should base on the fact that the house always has the advantage, the longer you play the more chances you lost in the game. You have to set you target amount and time. You should know when to stop and that is what you called discipline.
4647  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: April 29, 2016, 03:14:21 AM
there is no such safe method to gamble, the odds are always in the house favor,however you can play smart and increase your chance of winning and walk out ahead while you can.
Only small people are wise in gambling. If someone is winning he never walk out easy cause he wants to win bigger and bigger amount until they go home broke. That's the risk in gambling cause you don't know how to manage the situation when you are too happy and too sad while gambling.
4648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I invest in bitcoin casinos? on: April 29, 2016, 03:12:40 AM
If you are willing to take the risk in playing in casinos then you invest in it since you also have big profits if you win. But be sure to invest money that you can afford to lose because there is also a high chanve that you are more likely to lose.
Investing is like also you are gambling in a casino, although I may say that being part of the house gives you a big advantage compared to the bettors, as long as you are determined to invest and you are ready to accept reality on whatever the outcome then I can say that this is for you.
4649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: April 29, 2016, 03:10:47 AM
Gambling can be very addicted and this already has been mentioned by all kind of people, its of course true no doubts about that by the way.
I always through it was caused by a combo of two reasons and that is profit and the enjoying factor.
These two factors makes it so hard to stop with gambling in my eyes.
But those people who are in search of profit in those games can not find any relief and enjoyment in there, but will face tension and will be happy only if they find a victory in their life in the field of gambling. This continuous search for an impossible thing, leads to addiction after certain amount of time.
Indeed these people that are gambling for profit do not enjoy it, they are just greedy and want to win as much as possible.
Of course this is not possible with gambling but some people think it is and stay gambling.
You have to kinds of people, one of them is addicted by enjoying gambling and the other kind is addicted because they get blind because of the profit and money you can win.
That's the problem when one make gambling as a source of income, they want to earn fast by betting on high odds without realizing their winning probability. And then if they lost they chase their losses cause human are greed by nature. By doing it regularly they become addicted to it and time will come they can longer leave it.
4650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this what we called "addictive to gamble"? on: April 29, 2016, 03:08:47 AM
we know that most of the times we lost on gambling, but instead of stopping we keep on playing for the next day

after we lost, we got frustrated but we still back to play, is this called "gamble addiction"?
Yes if you see this in your self you are addicted to gambling. Why you people keep doing this is because that if you play so many times that you eventually are going to win. This is what keep people that are addicted to gambling going. 
People are addicted to gambling because they think that you can earn some money with it and that you can be even rich with it so that is already quite bad.
They have to control themselves when they are gambling otherwise they will become poor and that will be bad for them.
That's  a wrong thinking by most of the gamblers here will lead them to the hole of sadness. It is really frustrating to loss in gambling and it would affect your whole not being productive. People get addicted because they want revenge, they want to get back their losses even using the money they cannot afford to lose.
4651  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it profitable to run a dice gambling site? on: April 29, 2016, 03:06:46 AM
It could be profitable but I think you would need a good marketing(signature campaign) to accomplish this and this will cost a lot of money.
To start such a website you would need investors that trust you and you would also need good developers plus a good marketing, so I think it will be a hard task to do this.

Signature campaign is not the only way to advertise, there are many other ways to advertise and all requires not small amount of money/btc.
But I agree that it is not an easy task to start a gambling site, need a great plan, preparations, and of course money.
That's true for sure, establishing a gambling sites needs a careful study by the investor, he needs to know the market especially the bitcoin prices, he needs to study the competitors and copy those good strategies and improve the weakness he can see in some of the casinos, in that way you can be able to compete with other established casinos.
4652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: April 29, 2016, 01:27:49 AM
There are many people who make a living off of the gambling industry; if there weren't people who profited, then there would be no gambling industry at all.  The key to being a successful gambler is to only wager on events when the odds are in your favor.  That requires a working knowledge of probability....learn the math and gamble like the house does....they win and so could you!
That would only be possible if you choose a gambling form where you can have a slight advantage. I recommend doing it in sports betting as I have seen successful punters who manage to bag a huge amount of money but to do this is not that easy as anyone can think of. It require the ability and knowledge that most of the gamblers don't have.
4653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I invest in bitcoin casinos? on: April 29, 2016, 01:25:37 AM
It could be good to invest in a bitcoin casino, although it also has major risks because if it goes wrong it will be going very wrong and you will lose a lot of money.
You need a good trusted party that you can trust and invest in.
If you want a high reward then you have to take the risk. Only casino will offer you a high reward of your investment at a fast way depending on the popularity of the sites you invested in. Gambling industry is become more increasing due to the adoptions of the gambling sites which allow us betting using bitcoins.
4654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling is Exploding on: April 29, 2016, 01:23:21 AM
I think that if a gambling business manages to establish itself and be consistent with a good service and no stories of getting hacked in the past, scams and so on, and they resist until Bitcoin becomes mainstream, all the people will gamble on those sites and the owners will become pioneers in the field and therefore millionaires. I think PrimeDice is on a good track to achieve that. I hope they do sig campaigns in the future again since they paid the highest ever.

Well I wish so that they will do a signature campaign again because many people are helped by signature campaign experiencing the quality and service of bitcoin and that will surely keeps people from getting involve in bitcoin.
As you can see now you see also that Bitcoin is getting more used for gambling and that is because it is quite easy to gamble with it because it is digital money.
And more people will get also more about it and that is perfect for the future, because we make it more popular now.
If we continue to patronize bitcoin then the adoption will be big with the majority, most of the early adopters of bitcoin are those gamblers, they use it in dice gambling sites and even sports betting. Sports gambling is a huge industry and apparently majority of the sports book today accept bitcoin so I can say the future is bright for bitcoin gambling.
4655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can you earn with gambling? on: April 29, 2016, 01:20:49 AM
That depends on how much you are playing and also how much you are investing so that is quite hard to predict that and the chance of losing is quite high in gambling.
So you need to be really lucky if you want to earn some money with gambling.

Someone investing 10btc or even investing less then 1btc both has equal chances of losing their investment in gambling.
And in gambling the chances of losing is way more then the chances of winning, only a few lucky people win in gambling and the others always lose their money in it.
This is a hard venture to win money, you need to emotionally stable and wise all the time to spot the proper value. Dice can be profitable also if you are lucky, you can win 100 BTC in an instant or lose it. I would suggest to go on sports betting as it is the only gambling type I found where you can have a slight advantage.

4657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: April 29, 2016, 12:49:52 AM
Gambling can teach you many things in life.

Patient's the feeling of lose an self control.
if you know you have an addictive personality you should never gamble.
That or gamble with money you saved up just for gambling only.
That's what I really learn in gambling the Patience, now I was able to control myself already, every time I lose big I cool down and don't allow my emotions control my mind. I always put in mind that tomorrow is another day and that I cannot win in gambling all the time.
4658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling can be profitable in the long run! It is possible! on: April 29, 2016, 12:46:22 AM
Its possible to make profit on a long term but you would need a lot of luck to do this and for the most under us this is not possible.
Gambling is depending on luck and on a long term its even gonna be a more difficult.
It is possible if you know how to choose a gambling type that the house advantage is less. Let's go to sports betting gambling where you can have a good advantage, if you can choose winners consistently and able to manage your bankroll properly you will be successful in the long run.
4659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Bitcoin? on: April 29, 2016, 12:44:40 AM
well, Gambling and bitcoin is one. I guess if it was about gambling, there must be a bitcoin in it, because bitcoin users more gamblers than investment. besides the rapid transaction of bitcoin make gambling sites accept bitcoin, because of convenience owned bitcoin transactions

bitcoin has so much more uses than use it for gambling. it can be one of the best currency transactions, fast confirmation etc. However, many people still prefer fiat for gambling. It is just that this community have a lot of btc gambling.
I think 10 years from now, bitcoin will be exploding and the adoption of the people will be massive. People will be educated in future that they will understand the transparency the bitcoin brings. I am very much optimistic on my prediction as I myself I have already proven the good usage of bitcoin specially in gambling.
