You just revealed a very vital secret but then lazy gamblers will not take this seriously because they need a miracle. Short cut never works in gambling and I wish I could explain this in details. It’s quite a pity that gamblers do not engage in research and study and this is very necessary for upgrade, we only want to win quickly. Some believe it’s a game of luck and to some there is a secret not being disclosed but in all my idea of gambling remains learning.

I remember how poorly I played when I first started, I was at a point on most giving up on gambling and believing the general notion that the house always wins, but it dawned on me that no business owners will like their clients to always loose, there is just something I wasn’t getting right and right there I started to learn. Today I am a better player.
If you understand gambling very well, you will understand by now that it’s not about gamblers on the look for a quick way to make money, no one would be so patient to be losing money. The research you talked about takes a lot of time. This is not something that happens immediately, so how do you expect one in need of money to be able to carry out any research?

I am very sure you had wasted a lot of money before you became perfect like you mentioned and you know very well that not everyone will have such money to spare, this is the reason many gamblers want the money to come instantly, maybe we should all agree at this point that there is no  quick way to make money in gambling.
I never understate what people tell me about gaming because i believe in my own research the most so that's why I only gamble while I have money and my only gambling secret is I always gamble in my free time and i never get attached with gaming emotionally as i always try to improve my skills about all games.

Any further explanation about this news? Why are they talking about "modern slavery" is they are bullying a country and I think it is like the Philippines are their slaves telling us what to do or what to think of. It is all in the hands of our President, Rodrigo Duterte to ban or not to ban online gambling.
It's still dependable from how the Pres will see this concern. And since he's the leader of this country, then he's the one who's responsible whatever he wanted to treat this case. China can speak according to how they are seeing the problem. But since their jurisdiction is limited, they will need to wait from what the Philippine president's final statement, either it will be in their favor or if there's other way to treat this matter.
Well this is totally the choice of the country no other country could tell the other one to make something and break some rules. If Philippines is accepting gambling and people are using then no one can stop them from accepting but I thinks giving wrong suggestions is surely not acceptable. China should also promote online gambling.

Dude, I think it's not healthy anymore. We have small chance of winning in any gambling game including dice. If gambling is not for you, try  other fields like trading. I am losing too in a dice game but I am trying different strategies to atleast gain some profits. Somehow, I am still winning. We shall have different betting style. Gambling is a gambling, we lose but we still wins.
No matter what strategy you are trying you will lose more than you are winning if you have high umber of bets.There are some good and bad experience for me as well in dice but just accept everything because its gambling and we are not working its just the entertainment.
This is one of the most annoying thing in gambling, I hate to know  that the game is only there to entertain players and not a  way to make money meanwhile casino owners present it to us like it is a great way to make money, this is deceit in my own word and I think this has to be corrected, if we needed somewhere to be entertained, there are a lot of places, so many gamblers like me came into gambling with the purpose of making money and that stupid idea of gambling for fun has to be erased.

I have made up my mind to stop gambling for now, considering the huge loses I have made and since its very obvious there is no strategy that helps to avoid this loses, there’s no other way than either to choose loosing or stop playing which is what I have decided to do for now.
For sure those who are loosing money in something so people will not like it but they only want to see the result of their own choice. It is much better to keep both things in your mind such as lose and profit because no pain no gain and here I would suggest you to gamble with fiat and use your crypto satoshis to save.
524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Choose Lottery Instead Of Anything Else? on: September 01, 2019, 07:17:31 AM
For me it's like choosing long term and short term. Wherein that's why sometimes there are some ppl prefered to bet in some lottery because of the high possibility to obtain quick money in a short time. yes we can say the risk were the same and activities but you know its very quick to earn than other betting options.
For me both are good if you want you can buy long term and if you want you can join short term but I think the best one is long term lottery. People wins huge amount of money in lottery but it’s all about luck according to me only lucky people could win in lottery. I have seen people winning even twenty times in lottery.
525  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I don't know how to trust a gambling site nowadays! on: September 01, 2019, 06:32:53 AM
I know for a fact that KYC is done in some gambling sites even those sites are trustworthy when you won a jackpot prize or a big prize. If you do win that you'll do a KYC and I think they will hold on to your prize for days if I can remember it right that's the thing they're doing.
As a gambler, I always check the feedbacks of every gambling platforms before I gamble on the platforms because, many of my.winnings have been stuck in some known gambling platforms without missing world. KYC shouldn't be a yardstick for any gambler to trust a gambling website, they can disappoint you even with the KYC. Before you play in any gambling platforms ensure to research into the platforms before play.
This is a great way to have an insight into what kind of site have you clicked on. Reviews are composed of both good and bad and you can clearly have glimpse into how your journey is going to be in the site. Like we had the trust breach in ICO in 2018, you should not really trust the sites too. There are famous site on the internet and have been very professional so better stick to the top one.
Trust issue comes you know about it so better avoid all bad environment or gambling fake gambling site will effect your profit. Check the history and involve only fair sites. Before adopting and accepting their policies make good Google research after that ask the users about reliability and securitized assurance.
526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I've lost on: September 01, 2019, 06:06:43 AM
Surely all things come in our life to make us learn things from it. If you had lose once i am sure you must  learnt so much from your mistakes so never repeat and gain experience. Not all gamblers are perfect if you want to spend good time in gambling never be greedy and make sure you don’t gamble with fresh mentality.

You already said it, they are not perfect, they are human that is why they are prone to addiction.

A gambler will still continue to gamble since that is how he lives. A gambler will always think that they can win even if they are on the verge of not having anything. When they are losing, they will not learn, why? Because they think that they are just having a bad day and tomorrow will be different not tracking they are already losing for months.

People do what they like, do they overdo it or not it`s individual. Not every gambler is the same, I wouldn`t think about gambling with my savings. Gambling is a game of winning and losing, you can`t win all the time, nor you can lose all the time, and if you don`t know that if you are not aware of what gambling is than I don`t know why you gambling at all!
I will point out the sentence from Best Dreams "all things come in our life to make us learn". It`s the essence, and some people learn it fast, others never learn it no matter how many chances they had.
People lose because if their own mistakes and because of their wrong decision taking mistake. They become greedy to win huge faster and in this thinking they lose. It is very wrong to be greedy in gambling it will distract your mind  and you could lose amount instead of winning apart from it over confidence also makes people suffer
527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you ever won a huge amount on gambling? on: September 01, 2019, 05:43:19 AM
In my experiences, I already won but a little amount of BTC only betting on a boxing fight which is Pacquiao-Thurman fight.

Now can I ask you, did you ever won a huge amount of money on gambling?
Share your experience.
I think the biggest that I can recall is 0.05 BTC and that's when Secondstrade is still active. Other than that, I win small amounts since my bets are usually just a thousand Satoshis in in Dice and I use autobet, its seldom that I go beyond 5 digits or 10,000 Satoshis. I also win in scratch cards but also small amounts, I guess its just around 5,000 Satoshis.   
Mate you are on winning track your going to win more than this. There are allot of chances to win but different games have different strategies and rules that will have to follow. Gambling is given you much 1000 satoshi is not small amount also you won 5000 satoshi so I also want to be the one who can win this way
528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does hard work in gambling count? on: September 01, 2019, 05:08:45 AM
I am curious to know if someone continually invested a lot of time in studying a game involved in gambling, further if he had played the game a lot to understand the intricacies involved, then can we call him an expert in that gambling game? If we do call him an expert then we clearly differentiate his experience and expertise from that of a novice. This clearly shows that the person is capable of winning more as an expert than the novice who really does not have the in-depth understanding of the play.

This brings us to an interesting question if hard work in gambling really pays off? If one puts in a lot of efforts to understand a game involved in gambling, does it mean that all his time has gone down the drain? Certainly no. If gambling were simply a blind guess or a wild shot then even years of studying it makes it useless because one is simply guessing the outcome blindly. But such is not the scenario with gambling in reality. What makes hard work count in gambling?

This further sets off the question of addiction in gambling. Work can also be an addiction for many. But here the addiction could be for perfecting the game and the art of playing. This kind of addiction is to struggle every time for success by proper calculation and review. However, addiction can also be due to pure greed of winning with no clear knowledge of the game. If hard work counts, then we may actually find a solution for a healthier addiction towards success in gambling.

Anything that you focus into will yield you result, but gambling is a different arena, there are intricacies and pitfalls that you should watch out, the first thing that you need to develop I believe is controlling if you don't have it you will not know when and how to stop when you are winning and when you are losing.

of all the fields gambling offer a different perspective compared to other fields, you will end up losing a lot of winning so much but each rewarding once you master your control and develop your own strategy.


I couldn't agree more. Self-control is very important since we are talking about gambling, which involves strong urges or winning as always no matter what it takes, and this kind of mindset is kind of tricky, sometimes it has good results, and sometimes it is the other way around. In gambling hard work doesn't recognize by the house edge, it doesn't care who you are, how powerful you are in real life, how rich you are, but what it cares about is how you are going to lose your money, that what is all matters.

So, in short, it is important that you know, by yourself that you won't go anywhere in gambling if what you are thinking always is winning, even though the reality is the exact opposite of it, there is no harm on trying, but there will be harm if you'll insist yourself that you are going to win big in gambling if you don't stop, be smart about your decisions.

Not sometimes but always it happens when you think about to gamble you take it very easy and you think this is child's play but this is not reality if you want to get success you will have to work hard and to collect knowledge about what actually gambling is your research is your only hard work you will have to do for gambling.
Yes never think anything to be that easy day you will get it without any hard work. Gambling is fun for so many people but this is wrong we are getting money from something then it is not good to think it’s easy and never under estimate anything try to gamble with all your abilities you will get reward.
529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: September 01, 2019, 04:09:19 AM
Just curious here.
I know there are tons of way to live.

but is there such a thing as professional gamblers?

people who make a living onlyout of gambling (online or on rl)?

resources and comments on that are really welcome.
I have not found anyone who depends on income from gambling, but there are people like that, whether it has become a hobby or because they are forced to get rich quick. need experience and techniques to become a professional gambler.
People use to win big because they are well trained and they have found gambling as best way to gain money we will have to be ready for all things happen. I like to gamble in my extra time of the day I gamble when I get free and i never leave my job as well because gambling can be done at night as well casinos are open 24/7.
530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: September 01, 2019, 03:29:47 AM
I imagine that there is a secret of gambling that is store in the box. Many people are trying to open the box with the right key, and they are willing to use every power and money to open it but unfortunately, the box still locked without any chance to be opened. But with the right person come to the box, and say Avrakadavra, the box are open, and the secret will belong to him.
Enough reading fairytales mate, just kidding Cheesy. But if this kind of set up is real then all of us might still continue losing until now and that lucky one is the only man winning consistently. In this world full of greed  and selfishness, I think no one will share the secret because he will never let a competition happen. I admit that maybe even me would do the same thing. (sorry for being a negative thinker lol)
Those so called "secrets" are already known to many gamblers
Actually you're right! For me the real secret of success is just a perfect combination of hardwork and luck but some can't still realize it.
No doubt same as all other earnings you will have to work hard for gambling. In gambling you will have to make research About the game you selected for gambling and always invest the spare amount after that controlling emotions is very important. After that you can leave all in your luck because gambling is 50 percent about luck.

Simple and fast interface might be the preferred option for many gamblers so they could get lightning fast gaming experience.
i believe that most sites now are having faster interface and even those old timer are adopting to be fast interfacing so I guess there’s nothing to ask for this nowadays

Having animations related to the games we are playing is good but it might feels slow sometimes like happened to me.
Why do you mean happened to you!?Did the animation slower your gaming experience or it’s just the internet or the computer you are using?animation gives relaxing moment while we are playing so I think it’s better to keep it that way
I don't know this animations but I would only say that we are having allot of options in market. I like only want a casino to be good and fair so that no extra cutting it should be safe so that scamming and frauds will not effect your earning I am happy to be one of member in well known casino where i get all facilities i wanted to have.
532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you guys started to gambling with cryptos or fiat money? on: August 31, 2019, 07:02:36 PM
This is a very good question and I will be following this thread to see some responses
Since we all had fiat before BITCOIN I would imagine most 'gamblers' used fiat
But since this is BITCOIN 'gambling' the feedback might be skewed.
I was into fiat long before BITCOIN ever was around
You have been using fiat before bitcoin and yet didn’t give a single review on which is more preferable but here you are trying to watch feedback believing that most will be biased with sentiments, how unfair.

I just believe everyone is being honest with the comments, regardless that it is a bitcoin forum, the truth is, crypto made life easier for every user, whether in the gambling or trading world. It cannot be compared to the time of fiat when it was cumbersome. I am convinced that most old gamblers started with fiat, for me, in those days I started gambling, there was no such thing as Bitcoin and I am eternally grateful to BTC, it saved me from the horrors of gambling with fiat currency.
True. I barely have little to say about fiat gambling because I never gambled with fiat. I started gambling just 2 years ago and I started with cryptocurrency, bitcoin precisely.

I have had had a very amazing journey gambling with crypto and I am much impressed. From the opinion of everyone who have used fiat before bitcoin, I believe the difference between both is huge. It looks like cryptocurrency was a savior that came to safe gamblers from the bondage of fiat gambling and I can only imagine how gamblers coped with this fiat system during the age of fiat gambling because it is so obvious it was very stressful.
Well if you have more money you can use  there is no amount restriction for gamblers anyone can use the amount of their own choice. At beginning i was planning to gamble with crypto but now I got to know that gambling with fiat is better than the other options so now i am gambling with fiat only.

In my experiences, I already won but a little amount of BTC only betting on a boxing fight which is Pacquiao-Thurman fight.

Now can I ask you, did you ever won a huge amount of money on gambling?
Share your experience.
Well all depends on what you mean by huge amount of money but on my own part making about 30 percent of the initial capital is a huge sum of money even if the said capital is $200 or there about. Although, not that am advising you to gamble more if your capital
All these things that you have mentioned should be remove from all casinos because it can create distraction in the mind of the gamblers so if they will be able to get such relaxed place to gamble then it will give them a chance to win as the more clearly you play the more it makes you stronger and safer as gambler.
534  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Would you Like to See in a New Casino Site on: August 29, 2019, 06:24:46 AM
Free coins will be the best thing I can see in new casino sites, if the casino sites are new, of course, they need to make gamblers be with them at the 1st time and explore their sites, so maybe offering some free coins will do, maybe in the 1st 50 persons they will give some free satoshies and make their 1st bet to try and experience the site. Or some trial will do with a new site, doing some trial in a new gambling site will make them experience a good quality of the service.
Most of those new introductory gambling sites do this as they need to get participants' attentions. If they can attract new players to try their service by providing free satoshi to be used inside the sites, gamblers will be able to try and test how good the service coming from this new gambling house. It's a good way of advertising since free coins will make a huge impact once the team behind it built trust between the house and the gamblers. New sites might
have their own respective ways to get the attentions that they need.
Yeah no doubt most of time casinos use to say they will give so much freedom about investing but they don’t actually mean to deceive so every gambler want to see trust faith and relax environment for gambling.  So better keep yourself away from all fake sites and get well trusted sites with help your researches.
535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I don't know how to trust a gambling site nowadays! on: August 29, 2019, 05:03:21 AM
Personally if a gambling site is offering a deposit bonus, I first check what kind of terms they offer for that and if it has a high requirement for me to be able to attain and withdraw, I don't use it and I just let things be. Usually, only newly-erected sites are the ones offering such bonuses to attain a following from a lot of people early on in the game, and those well-established ones have some kind of bonuses every now and then but not as lucrative and crazy as to what these new sites offer.
I have seen a lot of gamblers that immediately register and start gambling on new sites without even going through the terms like you do and this is foolishness displayed to me. It’s possible that some scam sites are actually not scam as tagged but the ignorance level of players made their money blow into the air.

I am of the opinion that all gamblers should learn to read before betting, read information and read more on detecting the tricks of scam sites. There are still genuine sites out here and they are numerous, definitely more than the scam sites, so I see no reason why gamblers should still fall victim of gambling sites. I might be talking out of ignorance since I have not been scammed, but I believe It’s possible to prevent it.
You are right  we should trust old sites more than new one because in New casino most are just scammers but in old one you will see allot of trust able gamblers who are there since long so before trusting make so much research. Having trust worthy site is not easy that’s why be ready to face everything in gambling about your gaming site
536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I've lost on: August 29, 2019, 03:35:15 AM
I've lost big. Over the last two or three years, I've lost 60K in total. It was almost my entire savings.
It started out with a large investment in bitcoin when the price was about 13K.
When the price dropped to below 4K, I lost all hope after waiting forever and gambled it on bitcoin gambling sites trying to triple it up, just to make my money back.
I lost that and a lot more. Never imagined it turning out this way. Especially after the price went back up.
I don't have a lot of close people to turn to nowadays. It's hard to get through each day feeling horrible. Just needed to reach out somewhere.
Sorry if this isn't the place.
You may not know crypto more, so you regret the decision you made. you need to know that crypto is fluctuating, where prices can change significantly at any time without you knowing. if you think investing in crypto can make you wealthy quickly that's a big mistake, if you don't know the technology of this digital world.

I guess that is what happens to him, so he regrets making that decision. But he can prevent to make the same mistake now or in the future by remembering that in gambling, we are hard to win any games without having luck. He will difficult to recover his money, and if he still pushes himself to play another game, I am sure that he will get another loss and that will make him more regret. So please stop for a while from gambling, search for a job and try to make money from that job so you can move on from your losses.
Surely all things come in our life to make us learn things from it. If you had lose once i am sure you must  learnt so much from your mistakes so never repeat and gain experience. Not all gamblers are perfect if you want to spend good time in gambling never be greedy and make sure you don’t gamble with fresh mentality.
537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Things That Comes Into Your Mind When Winning... on: August 29, 2019, 02:45:49 AM
  • Free mind to spend on the consecutive games
  • Hope of recovering the loss that was experienced
    in the previous games.
  • Leads to increase the betting value for big wins.
  • My desires strikes my mind, which means soon after
    winning can buy those things
  • Note : What happens end of the day is loss
This good things should come in our mind that we will have to work hard for the recovery of previous lose so good hope and good thinking can lead us to success in future. But it must make you have control over your emotions be wise and have good gambling.  I like gambling for its reliability that's why I work hard for gambling.

It is nice to see that there ist so much feedback on my story.
Yeah very interesting story and really a huge amount specially if this happens today when the price of bitcoin is more than 10x wayback years you played

I hope that I can warn others with my story so, that they do not make the same mistake.
Atleast the one who learned a lot is you being the one who losses agin after winning big amount

In the end, the casino always wins.
No actually you already Won but it’s your greediness that made the casino win so till it’s the matter of our attitude and behavior while playing
It is very important to have good behave with the casino people because they are experienced amd they can play better than you that’s why stay cool while playing and never cross the rules made by the site a good gambler will have great profit with co-operation of the casino members just follow the rule

In Gambling the chance of winning is 20-30% but losing covers the rest lol 😂

Where are these numbers from? If they are just from your head, why it's "20-30%" and not "2-3%"?

Seriously though, your win chance depends on your goal and on the game you play. For example, on a dice site with 1% house edge the chances of winning 100% of your bet (2x multiplier) is 49.50%. Exactly that's why hitting 6 greens in a row, like this



is not something unusual, so I just did it for this illustration. If the chances of winning were 20-30%, as you said, it would take a really long time to hit that winning streak.

If you could provide some solid proof for your words, I would be more than happy to see it, but I don't think you can do that.


I can see more chances to win than that of other games. 30 percent is not enough to be happy for better play with some more strategies and you will be able to gain huge. You only have to plan high but never be so greedy to win. Focus on your goal and never understates your opponent player try to win but avoid greed.
540  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you guys started to gambling with cryptos or fiat money? on: August 28, 2019, 07:10:03 PM
I started with fiat money, before cryptos, but only in sports bets, but after I found about cryptos I started to gambling in online casinos
And I prefer to bet with BTC, it's easier to play in any website I want

Before cryptos, it was hard to bet in my country because we have some strict laws against casinos and the IPs usually were blocked

I also started gambling with fiat money before cryptos. My first time to gamble using fiat money was when my friend invited me to gamble I'm so curious what to do at first even I have some knowledge about it because I watch some movie that tells about gamble and the story is on gambling, its always a memorable experience to me. But the first gambling that I do is betting on online sports. Now I usually bet at cryptos because it's much more accessible.


Same as you h have started to gamble just with the suggestion of my friend and he invited me to gamble just in joke then with passage of time i become addicted then and today gambling is my best way to earn money I gamble with fiat only and also use fiat to invest for long term profit making.
