I guess the most difficult part in gambling would be for gamblers to control their own emotions, I often see big whale gamblers losing their cool in the casinos once they goes on a long losing streak and they still kept on betting with their martingale strategy until they realize their previous winnings and initial deposit are gone within a short period of time due to their impulsiveness on betting.
The ability to control emotions is something that every gambler must have because by losing money at the gambling table, their emotions can run high and forget their limits. Especially when they experience a losing streak, they can become emotional and use more money or even increase their bet amount. When the emotions are gone, their composure in playing gambling will also disappear and that's when they lose control over their emotions.
One of the reasons why a gambler does not succeed in gambling is that he fails to control his emotions. Wins and losses in gambling happen to everyone but there are some gamblers who exceed their limits and turn into addicted gamblers. At some point when he comes out of his emotions he understands everything. But most gamblers fail to control their emotions as long as they have money. And those who cannot naturally control their emotions cannot survive in gambling. A gambler's patience and emotions both are important issues.
So emotional control is very important when gambling because it can stop us from wanting to continue gambling regardless of the outcome. If we win, our emotions will also increase and we will want to continue gambling for another win. And if we lose, we will want to recover our previous losses, which will make us deposit another amount of money to continue the game. And if he still failed to control his emotions, he could lose very much. And many gamblers fail to control their emotions because they think that in the next spin, they can win and recover their losses.

Gambling for fun was fine as long as he could control himself and stop in time. But what happens a lot is when people have had the pleasure of playing gambling, they will forget to stop and just keep gambling in search of victory. But some people use their income for other things outside of gambling so they won't feel like losing money at the gambling table. Whatever a person chooses must be based on what he finds fun. So if someone can get out of gambling easily, it means he can think of gambling as entertainment, not as a place to make money.
True, that is an important point in making gambling as entertainment, when they are become a gambler, they are playing just to for fun. Those who have reached this level will no longer make gambling a place to make money. But to use the money only as entertainment. When they can make gambling a place to seek pleasure, then gamblers will be able to play without prioritizing emotions, both when they lose or win. best practice when we only focus on winning, we should stop gambling, because this mindset can reduce the financial burden.
However, we should be able to use gambling as entertainment and not to make money. How hard we try to make money from gambling will not be easy because we must think about luck, which cannot always come when playing gambling. That is why we must control our emotions so we are not provoked to continue gambling and know when to stop. If we can do that, we can get in and out of gambling whenever we want. And even though there are promos that look attractive, we can refrain from continuing to gamble.

Bitcointalk and other places are different. And Bitcointalk is a forum providing information about crypto and a place for promotions. In addition, Bitcointalk is also not bound by regulators so promotions about gambling can still run.

But if the promotion is done in a country, it has to be approved by the government because they make the rules. People wishing to place ads must contact them for permission. If that country prohibits advertising, gambling ads cannot be displayed because later, it will make people try them out of curiosity.

Gambling for fun, do you think it's wrong for you?

It's not wise to gamble your earnings from gambling, but there's nothing wrong if you just gamble for small amount money or amount you can afford to lose. Are you never use your money for fun? spending for entertainment. It's like you go to night club with your friends, you donate to Vtuber, gacha game to get your favorite skin etc.
I think the character of a person in seeking entertainment to use his money is different. For a non-gambler, he will use their money in nightclubs or tours. For some people gambling is not entertainment, it is a place to earn money, it is a different thing for those who make gambling as a place of entertainment.
Gambling for fun was fine as long as he could control himself and stop in time.

4826  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: June 28, 2023, 07:58:58 AM
In today's age girls are not behind boys in any field but in some areas girls are more ahead than boys. Gambling is not an exception in this case but girls are also included in gambling along with men. Girls are also participating in cricket, football, wrestling etc along with boys. Guest girls may have been lagging behind boys but nowadays girls are also participating in various sports and online casinos along with income.
But I don't think many women show that they play gambling because some feel embarrassed when other people see them playing gambling. They tend to play gambling secretly without anyone knowing or with other female friends so they can experience the moment of gambling together. If in sports, now many women take part in physical sports as you mentioned. But I guess they play with other girls, although I already saw women play one sport with men.
4827  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: June 28, 2023, 07:22:06 AM
Let's just make it simple, there are people who are professional or gifted in this kind of things.
They understand it more than the average gamblers does it is not just in gambling you could say in every profession there are some who excel in their choice of field.

To say the fact gambling has it major advantages and disadvantages as well and we must learn to understand that in life, we need to always have a strong backups that could help us at any time in need when gambling is not yielding anything as expected the gambler would have thought, but when there's a back up plan, there will be less of being disappointed.
That means if we decide to play gambling, we must not think of gambling as the only source of income because we must have other sources of income to make ends meet. If they continue to use gambling as their only source of income, they will be disappointed to see that this will not happen because in gambling, we will not always succeed in getting a win. So by having a source of income, we can still make ends meet and play gambling. But if we can't limit the use of money for gambling and instead use other money, we won't be able to buy the necessities of life.
4828  Economy / Gambling / Re: is KYC data on Gambling sites safe? on: June 28, 2023, 06:59:19 AM
In my point of view this is really risky. These are gambling websites which you are talking about, even I don't use the online exchanges which requires KYC to withdraw funds. Because this is risky. Because I think why I should give personal data to anyone KYC documents are highly confidential documents so we should avoid.
That's what we want but we also can only accept if one day, online exchanges or even casinos require us to do KYC before we can withdraw funds. Online casinos and exchanges only follow the regulatory requirements given by the regulators and don't want to violate them, so they also implement KYC on their members.

And the only way we can do that is to find casinos or online exchanges that still allow users not to do KYC or at least not do KYC at all. It all depends on which one can make us comfortable choosing, whether it is an online crypto casino or an online exchange. And people do KYC on online casinos and exchanges because they trust that the casinos and online exchanges can keep the paperwork properly.
4829  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Nigerian Father Rejects Son's Gambling Win on: June 28, 2023, 06:37:30 AM
Well, its the son's money and he can do anything he like with it. He offered it to his dad, and his dad rejected it. That's it. There is nothing more he can do about it. Maybe his dad is extremely religious or perhaps, gambling is seen very negatively where he lives, hence his dad doesn't want to be seen as a "bad" person or something. The kid can do good with the money. Perhaps start something for his own, spread and donate every now and then. But he shouldn't regret anything. As long as he isn't gambling and affecting his life or anyone, it should be fine. His dad will probably eventually understand.
Even if his dad understands or not, he can at least make his life better with that money and we all know that is what a parent wants for their children, if he doesn't want him to become a gambling addict and stop gambling and that was his motive of rejecting the money, the son should show him that the money didn't ruin his life and he didn't gamble it away, he should start a business or something that would generate his revenue and then his father might be proud of him.

But, if it's a religious thing and the dad rejected the money because their religion forbids gambling, then I don't think that his dad will accept even the money he will earn through the business he started using the money he had won from gambling because religions won't allow that too.
Maybe using the money for business would be better for the son and not gambling anymore so it wouldn't disappoint his father. Besides that, the child can try to make money from the business so that his father can slowly understand and accept it. But it all depends on the father, whether he will understand and accept it or still will not receive money from the results of the child's business. Maybe the only way for the child is to give all the winning money to charity so they can use the money to help other people's lives.
4830  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: June 28, 2023, 06:00:27 AM
That is what casino is all about they can detect easily when the gambler or a user make an extra ordinary things then the casino facilitator will take an action about that and one of those are when an account being suspected then there's a high percentage that account will go for and KYC and or restricted or the withdrawal will being hold for a couple of days .
And if it is true that the user is cheating, the casino will immediately block the gambling account and hold all the money in the account without being able to withdraw it. That's what will happen to people suspected of cheating the casino and we shouldn't have to because the risks are like that. And if we find a bug in the casino, we better report it to the casino immediately and maybe we'll be rewarded.
4831  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your rate in betting base on odds alone? on: June 28, 2023, 05:21:34 AM
I'm hoping to make more BTC so the more bets from now on the more chances of winning. I think that's what I'm going to do now before the bull run takes full speed.
Regardless of which game. To me, I bet on Soccer but I seem to have lost every day. How often do you win in Soccer games if you just bet based on odds by picking a team with 1.50 and 1.70?
Sometimes the more you chase after something the more it gets away. So your hope of being able to increase your BTC by playing gambling is quite the wrong decision, considering that your chances of winning are not that great. I myself would not want to increase my Bitcoin in this way because it is not effective at all, it is better to trade because it is much more effective and the opportunity for profit is far greater than gambling.
We already have another way to be able to increase our BTC amount by trading. But before we can start profiting from trading, we must learn to understand how to trade properly, analyze the market, and practice what we have learned. We have to do that to be able to benefit.

Meanwhile, if he chooses to gamble to increase his BTC amount, he must understand that gambling can cause him to suffer losses. In addition, he is not always able to benefit from gambling because many people have tried it but he failed before he could benefit from gambling.
4832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you been threaten to stop gambling on: June 28, 2023, 05:01:23 AM
This is the reality mate not all gamblers open their situations in their family but some of their friends already know about them.  And the reason why is that happened is that they are more open to their friends rather than to their family because when their family will know about their situation then it will cause minor or even major problem fro their family.
And if their friends already know that someone is already addicted to gambling, they can approach him and try to get him out of gambling while giving him a choice of activities to do. This will make people addicted to gambling think that they still have many choices of activities that they can use to reduce their gambling activities. And after knowing this, he can tell that he wants to stay away from gambling but still can't. I think his friends will help him to reduce his gambling time and even help him to cure his gambling addiction.
4833  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why do you still want to play fake web2 casinos? Why we choose web3 casinos on: June 28, 2023, 04:29:22 AM
I also think that the tax authorities will find an effective way to tax any casino and web3 casinos too.  Whenever a specific person or group of people who organized a casino and run this business is known, you can find ways to tax them.  But the problematic issue is not just how to collect such taxes, but how the money collected from taxpayers would be effectively used by the government.  And this is where I think there is a problem.  And yet such money is most likely used inefficiently, and in many countries it is also partially simply stolen by corrupt officials.  By the way, web3 casinos can be used for some interesting options for reducing taxes from such a casino and at the same time with the participation of just such corrupt tax officials and other officials. 
I believe that this is what officials in some not very developed jurisdictions will do.
I also think like that because I still often read news reports that corrupt officials corrupt the tax money paid to the state. That makes it inefficient because taxpayers have followed government regulations but it turns out that corrupt officials are corrupting their money. The government must eradicate this and can provide severe punishment to these corrupt officials.

If the money from the taxes can be put to good use by the government, surely the situation in that country can be more advanced because the money from the taxes is very large and can help the economy. But I don't really think about playing at web2 or web3 casinos because we have to know which casinos can provide comfort in playing gambling and these casinos must have good service for their members.
4834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Confident Are You In The Reliability of the KYC system on: June 28, 2023, 03:55:44 AM
Nowadays there are lots of trusted casinos that have good reputations in the gambling industry so when we have suspicions about one of the shady casinos, there is no need to try to access it to play because it is very risky, especially giving KYC data because some casinos are shady will only abuse the KYC you provide.
If you have to provide personal data or other valid data to play gambling, of course you will also choose a casino that is trusted and has a good reputation.
The mistake of beginners is that they think that new casinos or small casinos can provide benefits, but in reality some of these casinos cannot be trusted and only harm gamblers.
Yes, I agree with you about choosing only reputable casinos for gambling. And if we have to do KYC, we can do it at a trusted casino because we believe the casino will not abuse our provided data. They can certainly take good care of it and will also protect their customer data.

Beginners can choose the casino well and won't choose it wrongly. But they are often tempted to try a new casino or a casino they already know is a scam casino because they see very attractive promotions. And that is the initial mistake of beginners that they must be well aware of so they don't make the same mistake again in the future.

There should be no other reason for a casino to refuse your KYC documents unless they are unclear, not readable, pictures aren't well taken, or there is something else that makes them not valid for the verification. If you submit documents that are valid, readable, not expired, having all corners visible, and you have taken the pictures with good lighting, the casino would never reject them unless they don't want to accept you in the first place.

The very first thing one should do when they get their documents and KYC rejected is they should check again if they have done everything right, if they are satisfied with what they did and think it's something from the casino, they should try another platform.
If the document we provide is valid and has been used to verify on other sites, it shouldn't be a problem for verification at the casino either. And when the casino still asks for other documents, the casino should also have no problems and can immediately approve our request for verification. But many people choose the wrong casino. They do KYC but are rejected by the casino for various reasons so they can do nothing but complain. If the casino is in this forum, they can complain and ask for help from us here to forward it to the casino representative. But if the casino isn't here, we won't do anything about it. Before verifying or registering at a casino, we should always check it more thoroughly, especially when we see information that requires us to do KYC so we won't have problems later.
4835  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you find it offensive to be referred to as an addicted gambler? on: June 28, 2023, 03:30:09 AM
The first thing we must always realize about cases like this is that everyone's perception is different and also the purpose of people saying things like that is also because there are those who want to make us aware but there are also those who see us badly because we are addicted to gambling.
Whatever we do as long as we don't disturb and don't ask for money from that person to gamble, then whatever he is talking about doesn't need to be considered important and just let it go because over time he will tire himself.

Let's prove that gambling is actually not bad for those gamblers who can be responsible and only use gambling as a means of entertainment.
Gambling is like a double-edged sword that can provide benefits, but it seems that many people say that gambling is bad because many people have experienced bad results. If they want to admit it, it is because of the mistakes of the people themselves. They cannot control themselves in gambling and see gambling as a place to make money. It's not like that, though. Gambling is designed to provide a different kind of fun where when they win, they will earn money but when they lose, they will lose money. And unfortunately, people are even more interested in playing gambling and spending a lot of money in the hope of winning.
4836  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top 50 gambling Instagram & TikTok accounts on: June 28, 2023, 03:03:41 AM
There is obviously a very big difference between a celebrity and an influencer, not every casino or gambling platform can afford to become partners with celebrities whether they are from sports industry or film industry or music industry, because a partnership with one of these celebrities would cost the casino way higher than having multiple influencers promote their services but the impact of all of them combined won't be enough to compete with one of the celebrity's.

Even among influencers, those who have a lot of followers and people watch them very often and they have a lot of views and interactions on their videos and live streams tend to charge more money for promotions than those influencers who are relatively new and has less followers or even if they have many followers but they don't get enough views and interactions.
Also, not many celebrities want to work with casinos because they think about the reputation it has built. And also, they don't want to see their fans playing gambling and getting addicted. But if it's an influencer, the casino can offer them cooperation, especially if the influencer has a lot of fans and often gambles. This will make it easier for the casino to offer the influencer to accept it.

But the casino also doesn't offer cooperation to just any influencer and only chooses influencers with a lot of followers so that lots of people will see videos from that influencer. And usually, if the casino has found the influencer they are looking for, the cooperation offer will last a long time because each casino and the influencer can both benefit.
Yeah right, I rarely see them go for gambling promotion, that's because maybe they think about reputation like you said. But apart from all that, of course I see more of them (influencers) who are more active on social media and more interactive with their fans. I actually don't want to differentiate between celebrities and influencers, but there is a slight difference between them.
They (what we call influencers) are interactive with their fans which is a distinct advantage, because someone who follows them on social media will feel closer and after that they will definitely want to try something that influencer does.
Instead of destroying his reputation by receiving gambling advertisements, it would be better for the celebrity not to accept gambling-related advertisements. They also don't want to be blamed if something happens to their fans because they realize that whatever they do can impact their fans.

The influencer may not really care about what people will think so they instead busy themselves with things that can provide pleasure and income for them. Also, the influencers want to build their reputation without thinking too complicated like those celebrities, because they share something they know with their fans. But the influencer has also given the risks behind it, so the fans' decision is theirs.
4837  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: increased Youtube Gambling ads? on: June 28, 2023, 01:43:14 AM
Gambling sites have chosen platforms like youtube tiktok as a major place for their advertisement because of which the sides invest a lot of money in these places and we know that youtube and tiktok buy data from Google and other companies to understand their algorithms, what an internet user is constantly searching for. and that's why if you search for something anywhere you will see all kinds of related ads on platforms like youtube and tiktok when you visit them.
The development of social media today is so extraordinary that it makes many companies interested and create accounts on each social media. And social media is a place for promotion for all companies to develop their business. Gambling sites also have accounts on social media to reach more gamblers and provide various kinds of promotions there. And maybe that's what makes Youtube advertisements increase because many companies are already aware of it.
The activity of advertising the gambling site will certainly have a huge impact in terms of traffic so that new users register and this is a good step for gambling sites to spread their wings to carry out promotions on various social media platforms. Especially for popular video streaming sites like YouTube, which we know have a lot of users, it will be a good target for closer promotion. Maybe if gambling sites can be consistent in carrying out promotions on YouTube they will find it easier to get new users, moreover collaborating with YouTubers who have subscribers above 100K might be more efficient in attracting interest.
For this reason, these sites are increasingly promoted on social media because they see increased visitors. Aside from being a place to share, social media has become a place to promote many things, so more and more people are looking for many things from social media.

Many gambling sites, such as Youtube, use social media to get new users. This gambling site regularly provides attractive promotions to get new users. And promotions can help gambling sites grow to be big and get more new users and a good reputation.

I usually place my sports bet before the game starts and wait for it to finish. Set and forget is what I usually use so whatever happens doesn't affect me. It's better for me because by placing a bet before the match and leaving it, I don't have to bother to re-analyze if the situation in the match changes. And if the profit amount could be higher in the middle of the match, I might as well withdraw the money before the game ends. I do that because occasionally, I have a match condition that changes direction again and makes me lose money in bets.

You've hit the nail on the head with your insights into human psychology and gambling. Sometimes we indeed start something just for a bit of fun or to fill our free time, but it can quickly escalate without us even realizing it. Before we know it, we've crossed a point of no return.
As long as you can control yourself in doing it, you won't use it for too long because you remember there is still something you need to do besides that. But the tendency is that if someone gets too comfortable with something, he might stop longer than before. And curiosity will make him continue to get something that can satisfy him. But once he's got something and quits, he'll return another day and try to get more. That happens a lot so it makes many people slowly turn into gambling addiction.
