Two of the biggest tips I can ever think of is never chase your losses, that's what ends up bankrupting people most of the time.  And then the second is know when to get up and walk away.  Whether you are up, even or down the ability to walk away is rare when someone is addicted to gambling and if you can't do that you need to get help.  
 
^Gambling addiction is a very serious problem that we need to pay attention to and always put in mind not to become addicted all you have said could be one of the reasons that you will become addicted in the future.
Chasing losses is a common problem so, therefore, you can simply avoid this by setting a limit on the amount that you gamble. Don't exceed your budget and avoid borrowing money for gambling. Next is to limit your time, at this point this will help prevent you from losing track of time and spending more than you intended. Last but not least, take a break, it is important to take regular breaks from gambling to avoid becoming too immersed in the activity. Take breaks to stretch, walk around, or do something else entirely and come back when you are ready.
522  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Game that you suffer consistent losses but still keep playing? on: February 24, 2023, 09:42:44 PM
Im sure that im in loss with these games after all the years im playing.

1. Dice
2. Crash
~snip~
^These are very addictive games and I also do the same.
Before when I was new in gambling dice games is my favorite and yes, there is a false hope that it could be after how many rolling the dice I will have consecutive wins. But in fact, that is not true because the more you gamble the more chances that you will lose.
These could be our common behavior.
The thrill of the game: Some individuals may find the excitement and anticipation of gambling to be a source of enjoyment, even if they are not winning.
Belief in luck: Many people believe in the idea of luck and may continue to play in the hopes that their fortunes will eventually change.
Social pressure: Gambling may be a social activity, and individuals may continue to play to fit in with their peers or avoid feeling left out.
Addiction: For some individuals, gambling can become addictive, and they may continue to play despite the negative consequences it may have on their finances and personal life.
523  Economy / Gambling / Re: ⭐ GamblersConnect.com ⭐ Trusted Casino Reviews ✅ Casino Affiliate of The Year on: February 24, 2023, 09:06:46 PM
lately, a lot of trusted casino review sites have appeared on this forum.
but it's a good plan.
and my advice is to always improve in casino research that is truly trusted. because sometimes there are positive reviews that can be purchased so that the casino looks trusted even though it's a scam.

anyways, welcome to the forum
^Let me straight to the point, my own conclusion for a good gambling casino review is that based on the community not it is reviewed by a single person or an author only. Definitely right, it could be purchased or becomes a biased review just because of the big affiliate rewards your review becomes good. Now, we have a lot of gambling casino reviews here in the forum which is there is competition. If this will compete with them and I think it is good if more casino reviews will come so that there are too many to choose from.
But anyway good luck OP.

There's a reason why a huge majority of people lose tremendous amounts of money with trading — simply because it's not easy and it's definitely not for everyone.

Seriously, trading is overrated. Go get a job or start a business instead. Unless you want to grind for more than a year and shoulder the losses while you're still learning.
Precisely. Newbies should not start trading unless they become skilled and knowledgeable on it since trading itself is not easy and is very risky. Although they can trade as much as they want to, but they should prepare for the consequences and that is losing more than they can afford to lose. Simply because, trading needs a lot of experience so you will be profitable, and let’s just say anyone can do trading, but trading is certainly not for everyone.
^Accept the possible circumstances.
It is also important for beginners to be aware of the potential risks and pitfalls of trading, such as losing money, emotional biases, and scams. It is recommended to start with a small amount of money that you can afford to lose and gradually increase your investment as you gain experience and confidence. Always put in mind that crypto trading carries a significant amount of risk. The cryptocurrency market is known for its volatility and unpredictability, and prices can fluctuate rapidly and dramatically, this means that losses can occur just as quickly as gains.

So, what's your favorite sportsbook and why?
^Not my favorite but I commonly use them.
Rollbit for me. I usually consider picking the reputation, payment options, wide sports betting options, betting markets, and odds.
As long as I enjoyed it and that offers a safe and secure, consider it a good sportsbook for me.
You probably heard different opinions and suggestions because each of us has different likes and dislikes on casinos, if your side feels comfortable, that is a good casino.

Yes, we should not be encouraged to bet in a fixed match even though we get insider information as this was still wrong and they will only be encouraged (the organizers of this event) to repeat the same thing.
^Definitely right, because placing bets on fixed matches is considered illegal and unethical, as it goes against the principles of fair play and can lead to fraudulent activity. In addition to the legal and ethical issues, betting on fixed matches is generally considered to be a very risky and unreliable way of making money. Put in mind that always gamble responsibly and within legal and ethical boundaries. If you want to enjoy sports betting, you should consider only betting on events that are fair and transparent, and do so only with money that you can afford to lose.
If we keep supporting fixed matches, this will not end and it seems we supporting fraudulent activities in the sports betting industry.
527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Do Gamblers Do This? on: February 22, 2023, 09:51:05 AM
In this forum and other forums where gambling is one of the topics of discussion, one of the recurrent topics is people who write about how their gambling addiction has ruined their lives. We usually encounter topics like "Gambling ruined my life,"  "I lost all my life savings to gambling,"  "I gambled away my entire salary," etc. Then they go on to tell a sad tale. It makes me wonder: why do gamblers tend to wait until they have suffered a catastrophic loss or a string of losses before quitting or seeking help?

Because they did not realize it earlier that gambling can lead them into something really bad or maybe because they are frustrated after so many tries but keep on losing then trying to recover it hardly that lead them into bigger lost. Imho, it is about our own mindset about how to deal with gambling and how to deal with all possible effects.
^ In addition to these various reasons.
The illusion of control: Many gamblers believe they can control the outcome of their bets or games of chance, even when the odds are against them.
Chasing losses: When gamblers suffer a loss, they may feel a sense of urgency to keep gambling in order to recoup their losses.
Denial: Gamblers may not want to admit to themselves or others that they have a problem with gambling.
Financial pressure: Gamblers may continue to gamble even when they know they have a problem because they are under financial pressure.
Problem gambling is a complex issue that can be influenced by a variety of factors. It is important for individuals who struggle with gambling to seek help as soon as possible, in order to minimize the negative consequences of their behavior in my own opinion.

May the force be with you!
We have no problems in gambling, everything can be solved peacefully, that's because we use a reputable and responsible online crypto gambling site here.

Yes, maybe the problem exists, namely: finances, we don't have big money to place bets, that's the problem with small bets of course we win too small. can't win big.

What are you saying here, they, can solve our problem of high stakes/money, if not in vain, all bullshit.
I guess in the end everything relies on how responsible you are as a gambler. Because regardless of how light or heavy your problem in gambling is, if you know how to manage your gambling activities, you will never stuck in problems that you think you find it hard to get out. Hopefully, this site will be a great help for those who are in bad shape with gambling right now. The earlier they find solutions, the better.
^It is definitely right, it depends on us how we will manage ourselves, it is our responsibility then, not on others in the first place.
However, I don't usually see old people here have a problem with gambling addiction because I know for sure we have learned how to deal with and avoid such problems. We also have a lot of reputable gambling casinos that will help you in times of trouble like this, yes, still business for them but I heard a casino here has self-destruction when you are addicted. Another factor we can avoid is that we are full aware here on such addiction, however, that site will helpful thou.

$28,000 seems like a tempting amount to just score a penalty in a game at a certain time, so I'm not surprised that athletes have been able to get involved. I am surprised by another - is the market for betting on penalties at certain times so large that the bets that allow fraudsters to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars have long gone unnoticed? It seems to me that the very first big bet (even if it was split into many small ones) would have attracted attention.
^ It is possible that there are thousands of dollars in unnoticed big wins from fraudsters, I can't imagine how big this amount is but one thing that I know, this is a huge amount that is easy to spot. I also have this thought, what is the penalty for the athletes if someone caught them the same issue? It should be memorable penalties so that they will not do it again or those athletes planning the same way will be afraid because of the possible penalties. Hopefully, our betting organizers will have a solution for this, it will harm their institution if this will continue.
531  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Trustdice.win cancels winning bets on: February 17, 2023, 10:37:00 PM
My story is that I registered on this site to place bets on sports events. After registration, I made a deposit of $ 600

But when trying to place a bet on any sporting event, an error was issued. The support told me that the sports provider restricted my access to sports betting (why?). Well, then I decided to withdraw the deposit. But it was not there, in order to withdraw the deposit, you need to unscrew the x5 wager.  
I quite not understand why they should restrict your access into sport betting which was your idea reason for depositing your funds, and yet still canceling your winning after a successful game play. I'm sorry mate, because I know Trustdice to be a reputable casino and I have been using it for quite some months now without any issue. So I will suggest, how about you dm Sir "Hampuz" who currently managing their signature campaign here on the forum, if he could be of help to you in any way.
^Nah, Hhampuz is only a manager of the campaign not a part of the team, don't bother him, he is a busy man.
Meanwhile, the Trustdice said that they don't have full control because they also waiting for the game provider which is where they rely on. If the game provider cancels the bets, the casino has nothing to do. I think OP must move on and accept the fact, there is nothing to lose with him, the money was refunded only the winning bet was canceled. Try to move into other gambling casinos if you don't comfortable in that casino, they will surely let your money be withdrawn in the first place.

Thank you for trying to adapt Bitcoin. By helping your neighbour in purchasing Bitcoin, you performed a wonderful job. It's important that your neighbor comprehends the fundamentals of what Bitcoin is and how it functions. At the same time teach them related technical things of Bitcoin like secure the funds.
Nice to hear that someone is willing to help others understand bitcoin.
But instead of using it as currency I guess they are just interested in the possible benefit. Trading and investing is what new users are most interested in, and it has become such trend among the people that they even just ask to be taught trading instead of the technical knowledge.

^The reason behind this is the profit that they get in BTC not how it will use.
That is a part of us as human beings, if we know that we can benefit from such things we simply adopt and use them.
The same thing on BTC, that is what they heard from the start to get profit and the reason they adopted it. However, keep spreading this to those people close to you or your loved ones is a great initiative idea on how to promote BTC. We should be we explain the good side and the bad side so that they will not blame us in the future especially since BTC is a very volatile asset.
533  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fake paid promotions on Twitter on: February 17, 2023, 09:59:29 PM
Even the person you had been admiring or following on social media platforms can be just promoting a scam.

It's a tough fact in crypto. Depending on my experience, I can say that the number of honest Twitter accounts is very low. We can take FTX and Luna as examples. Most crypto celebrities were promoting and defending them, which resulted in thousands of people losing their money. Unfortunately, money was buying global celebrities, who promoted some scam ICOs in the old days, so we shouldn't be surprised that crypto celebrities promote scams.
^This is not new on Twitter, they are just only paid shills, even though their own selves don't know what they promote.
As long as they get paid, there is no matter for them who they promote. That is why even with how famous you are on Twitter I don't follow those who promote such a new project, take research first before putting my money into them. In fact, there is a lot of fake in Twitter that you should know in the first place. Do always simple research if you really want to, if there is someone promoting a new project.
534  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Time to buy or sell? on: February 17, 2023, 09:50:42 PM
Did everyone manage to sell when bitcoin hit $25,000? I didn't because I am for the long term. Although it's not going to hurt to take some actions and start selling when you think that you've got enough. Even though there are some times that we have to think if we're for a long term still, we need to make some short term profits. Well, I didn't do anything as of now and keep my holdings sitting because I think that it's more rewarding in the future just as what we've seen in the past.

If you are a long-term investor, then you should not be distracted by such a price change. At the same time, it is now a good opportunity to open a short from 25 thousand, as there is strong resistance here and this provides an opportunity to open a deal with a short stop loss.
^When there is a short resistance, it is really tempting to sell our crypto holding, just like what happened now, as we can see the market shows a small resistance and it seems the market was in color green at this moment. If you are a long-term holder, don't look at the market quite often because that will lead you to sell your coin at the early stage, wait for the new ATH will come and we all receive better rewards.
For now, the best thing that we can do is buy BTC in the DCA way so that there is a buying point if you wanted to buy BTC.
535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports betting fraud in Brazil 😦 on: February 16, 2023, 10:58:30 PM
Fraud is prevalent everywhere. The sports world is no exception. It is very rampant in low leagues where almost nobody pays attention. It is even in this leagues that sports bettors will cash out big time because before the game begins they already know that it is rigged and are confident that the team they place their wager on is going to win in the end. Infact it is a win-win for everyone- the gamblers, the officials, the players, the football teams. Sadly, this destroys core of the league and everything that sports stands for. It is even more damaging to the teams and players involved because they will never be able to perform at top tier clubs.
^It is everywhere, it seems like corruption.
Fixed match has been there for a long time and no one will fear it because there is no heavy penalty for this which is it should be a must.
But that is definitely right, if this becomes rampant for now, in the future this will destroy all kinds of sports games and no one will believe in them since people know already that it is a fixed match and there is already a result. The sports gambling business will probably down because people always thought that every match was a scripted and fixed game.

Speaking about online casinos specially on crypto based then this gambling board alone would really be that sufficient or enough for you to look on because it would really be that
good to look at and you would see on their ANN thread which is reputable and which is new.It is really just common sense on what you would really be choosing on.
^That is what I am gonna going to say, we have plenty number of gambling casinos here in the forum that promoting their business for a long time and building reputations as well. I think we have many feedbacks about their affiliate program which one will pay and which casino did not pay for the affiliates. One factor that we can consider as good is that we can always reach their team once we have a problem on the site, and we can raise complaints when they did not give quality service. That is an advantage in choosing a gambling casino here.

ok, I mean my team handled cups.gg which was a successful PvP casino but at that time I wasn’t there, the new project has the same script but ofc changed logos, links etc and will have more games since we are working on adding more games
^My advice to you is to run your business here first to gain progress and at the same time trust the community, you cannot blame them if you can't get their trust because that is mandatory before trusting someone else to put your money as an investment. Look around, nobody believes in you because you are a newbie that does not have the credibility to ask for financial interest here.
However, why not did you not ask for help with cups.gg for financial matters?

Martingale is a terrible gambling strategy in the long run, and I'm sure we all agree on that.

We can agree that there's no winning strategy for any games with a mathematical edge not being on your side (negative EV).
But if you still want to gamble on such, then martingale is just as good, or just as bad as any other betting style. You're just betting on not having a losing streak exceeding your bankroll.
^Definitely right that is the fact that there is no strategy in any games and I agree that martingale is one of the best options that you will quickly get your profit and your capital by folding the amount of your loss to place a bet. It is terrible if you don't have enough funds to sustain and cover losses because this strategy needs a very huge funds. It is impossible if you don't win after how many loss streaks you have and then quit when you have your profit or even win at once, that you surely recovered your losses and already have gained.

The trauma from her past experience with his Brother is there, and she knows that risk of getting involve in gambling so probably she just wanna make sure to live happy and without having any stress from a gambling problem. Your cousin have to choose, if gambling is very important to him then better to tell this one to his fiancee and make her understand that he’s not addict in gambling and he’s still in control, if she accepts it better but if not your cousin have to decide.
^That is right, they need to talk about this.
If his cousin was a long-time gambler so it means he passed massive heavy experienced which he has control of his gambling.
But the wrong move is, why he did not let know his fiance about his gambling activity and tell her about that he has control over it and nothing to worry. Girls have always that kind of attitude, trying to control someone especially if they know the outcome, but if you are an experienced gambler, you can tell her that you are not addicted and tell her that gambling is one of your habits. If you can explain it very well, then, there is no problem.
540  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin gambling problem on: February 15, 2023, 10:32:32 PM
OP Thanks for sharing the site. Anyone can need a site. We have no problem with the online gambling category we are betting on. If there is any problem we can solve it ourselves. And we never bet big money. Bet with a small balance. We have no problem losing there. But there are many people who face problem by betting huge amount of money, maybe this site can solve them. But I don't know how good the solution will be. And my question is if I lose here, how will they help me?
^What probably you meant is that we don't have a  problem here because we know how to manage ourselves from gambling addiction, we are fully aware of addiction and we know how to avoid that because we have self-control. Gamble with your limited balance should be the best option because when you don't want to gamble you can easily take a break. Chasing losses is one of the most reasons why people get addicted to gambling, it will trigger there your greediness which seems not good to us.
