I don't do horse race gambling but I am not so sure about your claim, because I believe that gambling is more entertaining than trading, anyone who goes after trading goes there to make money, there is nothing like entertainment in trading, you are going to be on the edge of your sit watching how things goes, even if you are using small money in trading you are always going to hope you win, but...

I like trading for one reason that I believe its good enough, that's skills, if you are good with trading you are going to make more money with confidence, knowing that you will make more money since all that matter is how good you are, unlike gambling..

I turn gambling into entertainment because

1. The chances of winning is far too slim to risk any high amounts on, there is not too many skills important in gambling than to manage your bankroll.

2. Its you against the house, another human just like you selling you a lottery ticket where the chances of winning only belongs to the house ( the CEO ).

Its just safer to use small money and watch your game, if anything good happens its good and if the other part happens you don't lose any good money.

For me, Skills on anything wins more than taking risks on lucks, you are like a blind man without his walking stick.

Everyone can only talk about the casinos they have used before but mind you the experience you will get might not be the same as mine, gambling deals with having some good luck on your side and also having the knowledge to manage your bank roll.

I have use few online casinos from this forum and I ended up leaving some and focusing on just two right now, but here is the list of online casinos that I trust and I have also spend some time on.

1. Rollbit.
2. Fortune Jack.
3. Stake
4. Roobet.

Many people that I know are huge fan of stake and they use this platform as their main online casino, they have few good karma from this platform but I am struggling, I don't wonder much about it because I know that experience can never be the same on online casinos, you need to have your time spent on them first.

Your Bitcoin can't go down, its the value of your Bitcoin in dollars that goes down, and the thing is you are not at lose, the problem is you invested money you aren't ready to lose on Bitcoin and that's a very bad way to be in Bitcoin.

Its possible that Bitcoin can go back down to 30k if you don't prepare for this right now you should start doing it now, money you aren't ready to see goes down you must not invest in Bitcoin.

My advice for you is that you only lose if you sell your Bitcoin, there is a high chance that we go 50k in 2024 and if you don't have some patience you will lose big time, for someone like me I am always happy about volatility on Bitcoin because its a good opportunity to buy more.

Volatility isn't dangerous to the smart investors, its opportunity for them, and those who lacks knowledge believes that going down is throwing money down the toilet.

Why not try them out one after the other? I have a good time trying few casinos out when I was new to gambling, just to know which is good and which isn't, its your hard earned money, you are free to do anything you want, you don't have to follow what others tell you to do, start grabbing your own knowledge by yourself.

The fact you aren't ready to hear about online casinos.

1. You as a gambler can't have it all, all casinos don't pack all the goodies in one box ready for customers like you.

2. Daily bonuses don't run always, they are bonuses and that makes them time based, its only a matter of time until further notice.

3. Every casinos are created to make the house the winner, that's why you will see people losing money from a recommended casino where their friends are winning some money, never compare your luck to others.

4. Fast withdrawal is now very common, almost all the online exchanges I know don't take me time to withdraw from their platform, though the experience might be different if I am withdrawing five to six figures of money, I haven't win that much before.

There is one thing you left out, how about KYC requirement, are you ready for this? Because if you win big you can be asked to tender your identity, are you ready for this?

Its fine if you think its a bad idea to sell your assets for Bitcoin, but don't try talking people out of this, if it was other assets we are talking about i will support the motion, I won't dare sell my favourite assets to invest in anything else but bitcoin because its Bitcoin.

If other big organisations around the world are heavily investing in bitcoin just accept the fact that you know too less about Bitcoin, to me its worth selling assets to acquire some Bitcoin, as far as you still have some other assets its a good play.

I have not seen anyone who sold their things for Bitcoin losing out, I know friends back in school that sold cars and lands and other things, they never regret that they did it, it depends on the mindset, if you think its a bad idea then don't do it.

Manage yourself and your bankroll, I think every other strategy comes next after this, you can use time to your advantage by shorting it, or you can just use calculation on the rounds you are going to keep playing till you quit for the day, but the best one is the exact amount you can afford to lose in your everyday life of gambling.

I don't do gamble everyday, I have my special gambling days and also my exact amount I use on those days in a week, people gets addicted easily because they give too much of their time to gambling, this is wrong.

If anything is going to take most of your time it should be your family and your skills, in your job or business, think more about yoit family, I know someone who claimed that the love of his family is why he needs to be responsible in gambling, he knew he have to be careful and not ruin everything because he is into gambling.

Greed is the best tool scammers use to steal from their victim, if you are someone who want the short road to success I promise you that you will end up learning the hard way, with the little knowledge and experience I have seen in the past I declared that anything that's too easy is never going to be attractive to me, that is the scammers road.

Years ago you can easily and safely going any promotions online or free drops and you will get your tokens, but today even free tokens aren't free anymore, even if the project is genuine you can still get trapped, most airdrops are scam today and every shilling on twitter are ongoing because money is involved, those shillers are doing it for money too.

Today I prefer to focus on myself and learn good skills, even if its very hard i will keep going back everyday to keep learning and one day I will find my way with it, this is my own way in crypto space now, I have said my last bye bye to free offers, bonuses, and airdrops years ago.

Every game has its excitement, either football or UFC or racing games, and to get the full excitement package while be a gambler you only need to risk what you can afford to lose, think over head, that if the game goes out of your favour will you like losing the money? Gamblers don't always think about the aftermath, they are always so stuck in the present.

If the amount you risk is very low you will comfortably enjoy the game and what happens after won't matter, but if you risk a lot of money, while the game is ongoing you will feel the panic inside and react to any situation in the game, rest will only occur after the game ends and you win.

Now this Is what I accept to be called FUN, this person knows how to spend their life in happiness and generosity, gathering people together to have some fun and make money all the way, some people are struggling to be in one place when it comes to having fun in gambling, they don't know which side they are on, either its gambling for fun or gambling for money.

Some just say its for fun to get away from the question easily, how can you be struggling in life and you are gambling for fun? Those who do this are either retired or are already making a lot of money from their business.

Risk isn't going to seem too high to you if you are making a lot of money, yet you will see some people going for loans and borrowing money from their friends to gamble, the risk is already high before you start gambling, the money isn't  yours.

I need to ask you this and I hope you come out with the exact truth of what happened behind the veil, did anyone contacted you on telegram to use that exchange? Maybe for some extra bonuses or offers? Or did they somehow promise to give you some percentage of the money after you successfully withdraw some amount of money?

Sorry if you don't like this question but even a beginner will feel somehow about this exchange, the name alone is a big turn off, and I can remember that something like this was been shared to me on telegram but scammers, they pretend to be in trouble and they need someone who can do the withdraw for them in exchange for some part of the money?

Why would anyone use this exchange in the first place if something isn't fishy? Even those who are not into crypto knows Binance exchange, some don't even know how to use the exchange but they know its a place you can sell and buy crypto, even those that don't know Binance knows how to use google search to find top crypto exchanges, sorry to say but this is a scam and you are already a victim, next time don't use creepy exchanges for any reasons, always do your own research first.

There is no way to avoid it anyway, whatever plays out depends on the person, it is better if you don't win on your first time gaming, because you will feel how hard it could get to win in gambling, although it doesn't make a lot of difference but it's still way better than someone who win in their first gambling experience, this is bad for the long term as they will think it things will always work in their favour.

It's even more disturbing if the begginer don't have any exposure to how gambling really works or what other gblinv experiences have been in their past time, it's like saying you go into something you don't know anything about and you don't even bother to do any research, I believe that if beginners do their research about gambling, someone will tell them not to go into gambling and some will say it's fine, there will be few people that will warn them about addiction, and having that fear alone can make them gamble with care.

They will have to try as see, with what they can afford to lose, just to see what will happen, this is better than someone who just make up their mind that they can get rich with gambling and they risk any amount of money they can, even the type they have can't afford to lose.

1. I was never a fan of sports betting until I was encouraged by friends to start giving it a try, to see how things will play out and also sports have this advantage of using data analysis to get a upper hand in predictions.

2. Nothing much on the regret side of things, I lose money and I also win at times, it's just helpful that you can do research on the team and also be able to make a decision, it's not the same like playing games in casino.

3. I enjoy watching matches instead rather than just gambling and there are times that I don't even use money to place bets on sports, I just take my time and enjoy the games.

4. What is there to be struggling about? If you have no addiction problem you should be fine with any gambling games you choose, either poker or soccer you will be fine, funds management is what everyone should learn before gambling.

I like what you are doing OP, even while this problem can't always be solved you still come up with this idea to help others with their addiction, thanks for doing your best, gambling addiction can only be beaten by someone who desperately want to stop their gambling addiction.

Some people want to stop their addiction, but that dream is only for the day, when they take some time off they will feel like gambling again, the truth is your mind can't desire for two things at the same time, if you want a change you need to make up your mind.

The only way to beat addiction is by firstly making up your mind, give up on gambling and force yourself to like other things, I have seen people doing things to themselves to escape that dark desire of gambling, they want it gone by doing all the can, while some can't get over it and choose to take their own lives, it's all matter of choice, it's better to always choose the right choices.

Learning about how to keep their assets safe, I think this is the first thing to spend your time on, many people have lost access to fortunes in crypto because they thought its as easy as storing funds in their bank account, there is hacks and theft in crypto than the banking sectors, crypto is like the hackers playing field, they can steal and get away with it easily.

When I was new to crypto, this cost me a lot, I used the wrong crypto wallet to store my assets and I lost them, enough to set me up for life, with Doge coin mostly, something I can never forget till the end of time, I was so focused on how to get the assets, how to get them through airdrops and other ways, how to buy them on exchanges, but I never did research on how to safely keep them from hackers and Custodial wallets.

When you want to log into your bank account you need your mail account and your password, this was what I had in mind, towards crypto, and I stumbled on crypto wallets that requests the same, username and password, not knowing that if its not your key its not your assets.

I am very good at two things in gambling, one is me walking away after I win and me never risking more than I can afford to lose in gambling.

I remember the last time I won, I use $5 to win $2200 and there was also a time I use $25 to win $1500, I walked away immediately and I used the money to pay my cable bills for the next one year in advance, this happened in 2022.

Not knowing when to take your leave is the biggest disease you can have in gambling, this whole gambling idea was never created to make anyone rich, it's created to get you hooked for more and keep playing over and over for massive money.

People end up taking their lives after being so addicted to gambling, they can't stop and they can't walk away, the thing with gambling is no matter how much you win it will never be enough, that's why I always appreciate my effort of walking right away like I steal from the casino after I win some money, they will try to take it all back in fold.

For someone who was destined to have only a 100 thousand dollars all their live won't even know, and they will keep chasing the million dollar bag, imagine someone like this getting involved with gambling? They will believe that winning a million is more than enough and it's possible, the sad truth is they will never have it and they will waste their years away.

You need to consider yourself luck if you are not addicted to something, process addiction are so much harder to beat in so many ways, especially gambling and sex, you won't just quit easily, only those who haven't process it for too long find their way back easily.

You are right, a woman once told me about how her daughter came back from school and told her about gambling and the mother got worried for her and she gave the daughter some money to start gambling, only to lose it all to gambling and she let go of gambling till this day, she (the daughter) is now 30 years and I replied with.

Thank God she didn't win, things can be very different if she won at the time, if she won that day it will be like easy money to her and she will become addicted, as young as she was, I believe there will be no need for any responsible gambling treatment for her.

To be a responsible gambler you need to experience the good and bad side of gambling before even starting to gamble, those who are addicted to gambling can't even help themselves right now than to keep gambling even when they know that are addicted already.

All I can think about this topic is lack of self control, if you can't stop yourself from doing something you have failed as a man, because this is what will always define you in everything you do, staking have been around for many years and it's better for those who want to get money out of holding their tokens and coins for a long term.

To get a good money from staking it also requires a better value of the token you plan to stake for long or short term, you should just know what you want, and improve yourself in making decisions.

Also do not advice people to use atomic wallet, it's not safe, and it's so bad that I would rather stake my coins on Binance exchange rather than using Atomic wallet for staking, and Binance supports USDT staking, both APY and APR, the best one I trust most is Trust wallet, you are welcome.

Data analysis helps, if you don't use them how will you know want to place bet on? It helps a lot in decisions making and it also increases the chance of your luck, but all in all, you have to be still lucky to win.

My answer is yes and a no, the yes is about how important data analysis is if you are betting on sports games, and my No is saying that even after every data analyses you can still lose your money in the end of the match.

The best bet is to never risk more than you are willing to lose, if you think about losing the money, which is possible, always make sure you won't get affected if that dream of losing money finally comes true, it always come true faster than winning, gamble responsibly.

You are highly welcome.

If you don't mind losing the money its better way to start, as you only need to risk what you can afford to lose on gambling only, here are my advice for you.

Find a niche, which game do you like most? Soccer or basketball? Racing or UFC? Then go with one that you like the most, how you bet on them is on you, just risks only what you can afford to lose.

Also it's better you have a source of income, if you don't and you have what you are willing to lose right now you won't like it still after you lose the money, because you just lied to yourself as if you are really willing to lose the money, many gamblers think this way, but when they lose the money they find someone to put the blame on.
