I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc  Why is it so addictive? yes my feel too , i think gambling was created with in addictive and addictive is a sign that gambling .. interest in gambling is the beginning of addiction. Well, I guess it's fair goes back to play, even though you know that the money you use to gamble it will run out. Well, almost everyone who gamble like that. I guess it is the effect of gambling, and it does have a sense of enormous interest to try again. No I do not think so. I am very interested in gambling but I have never get addicted to it since I joined the gambling industry in 2015. I know that gambling is just a type of entertainment so I rarely think that I can have a decent amount of money there. Even though you may win some games, the house will know the way to retaliate and take back the winning money I think you are the most lucky person who is not addicted to gambling, there may be very little number of people who can claim that they are not addicted to gambling and they can stop gambling any time they want, as most of the people who are playing gambling on regular bases are mostly addicted to gambling. Yes if someone can control to stopping gambling anytime they want surely they are not addicted but im a little bit not trust about it due I have try to control my self when gamble but mostly failed. The best way to do is just to quit gambling, you are not good in gambling as every time you play you are always thinking of controlling yourself but it does not happen. Bear in mind that gambling is only an entertainment and this game requires deeper maturity as a person to understand that we are fighting in a losing battle if we go further with all our effort and money. |

I will be pleasantly surprised if $900+ is sustainable throughout 1/2017. I always like steady and slow growth even though it is nowhere as exciting.
but bitcoin price movements can not always be fixed or quiet, stable prices might come only temporary. whereas it would be much more secure, but it was the original nature of bitcoin that fluctuations will always be there, I was also surprised with the price of bitcoin very fast ride It surprises the many especially the doubters but not for the believers, I am one of the believers that we can hit the price of $1,000 early this year 2017 and I am happy to see it was realize. Now, I have more confidence that I will earn more and more as the price will increase substantially again. |

I have been trying out the martingale strategy for dice but was wondering if anyone has a good modified martingale strategy or any other ideas to try.
martingale will not work on long runs it will only work on short terms , you need to have a large bankroll for classic martingale or modified one just use manual bet and you should be ok. There is no guaranty that this martingale method will work for a short term as well because this game is a probably game so anytime you can get continuous losses and can wipe out your bankroll. In short, no methods will work in dice game just play manually this game to enjoy your free time. It's all about timing and luck at the same time, any method is very necessary but not only a betting method. We must also make a method that will help us to manage ourselves during our gambling session. Setting a limit for winnings and loses will always help us to enjoy gambling. No one has ever been successful in dice in the long run, that reality must be seriously considered for every gambler. |

I think that a electronic currency like bitcoin can replace fiat easy in a few year.
For example look at sweden, they are paying now only elecronic, even small amounts,
they have now no normal fiat money anymore, so when this is possible in sweden, why not in every country?
I bet you BTC10 to BTC1, it will not happen, not even in few more years. Bitcoin is not that powerful as the currency we are using, fiat still dominate the world when it comes to legal tender and bitcoin will always be a wonderful alternative option to be use for online transaction, believe me, bitcoin will only gain popularity online. |

in the future bitcoin will be used more as a currency but it will never replace "money" or fiat as we know it. because that would mean replacing the centralized, government controlled fiat which is not possible at all.
Most countries everything is getting digitalized as well trying to implement their own fiat in digital form. This is the only way to make a centralized digital currency. So bitcoin is considered as a base and countries involve in making their own digital currency with the same technology rather than using bitcoin officially. Some countries are already using a digital currency even before the existence of bitcoin, what makes bitcoin very popular nowadays is not only because of it's digital form but more on the decentralized factor. As a user, we see this as unique think compared to others, and we feel we love to transact without someone watching over us. Being anonymous only is the greatest security we could ever ask. |

Well with the bitcoin is easier to pay these days so that is the first fact that makes it a lot easier than cash.
Another reason is that its way more secure than cash and its also that with bitcoins you can pay globally all over the world.
By talking it based on your experience, you are right. But in general, cash is more convenient to use when transacting as it is fast and simple. Simple in the sense that you do not have to go through with bitcoin procedures that you need to make an online wallet and transfer it online, with cash you simply have over the money and take whatever you trade it and transaction is done. |

Blocking the internet won't work, it will only triggers the urge to gamble more. The best is to divert yourself with other things. Like going out with friends, or be involved in a more productive activity that will enhance your well being.
Yes, it is not a right decision to block the internet. Because you are going to betray yourself from so many other facilities that internet can provide your. I think the best option is to reduce the time you give for gambling and also to reduce the amount you spare for gambling through this way you con control yourself gradually. I guess I have tried that kind of experiment and in the end I realize that it was just a stupid experiment, we are just fooling ourselves doing it. It does not help to solve the real problem at all. Wanting to quit in gambling is one's decision when the problem of addiction is too serious, therefore we must make it serious as well and that involves treatment coming from our family or from the professionals. |

Spending bitcoins is good but I think that spending them right now is not so smart due to the price increasing you can better hold your full amount.
The price can always go down too, there are probably many people waiting for the price to reach $1000 again so they can dump everything they bought on the way up to the top last time. Just use it as a currency, save some and spend some, no different to fiat. I'm not sure if the price will reach that $ 1000,00 later this year. But in the following year is very likely that this value, and higher values will be achieved. It will all depend on how things will happen... If investors deliver the promised projects on time, Bitcoin is likely to gain a lot of media attention, and this can generate a very high demand. It is very hard for the price to get to that point, we might see the bitcoin price get to 1200$ just like in 2013. It might go down we never know how things might happen , it all depends on how much people are using it and how much investors are willing to invest effort and money into this future currency. If and when we ever see that killer app for bitcoin then we might start to see some crazy prices but 100k now especially without the scaling debate sorted then no way, we may even start to see a drop of $100-200 in the new year. I hate to see another price fall back anyway, especially when the price is very cheap, it does not help at all for the entire economy of bitcoin, we are slowly rising now and that represents success which we continue to achieve. The success must continue if this is not a manipulated price, I'm positive enough as that is how my investment will grow in the long term. |

I prefer to control myself getting out of gambling instead of asking a help from other people. Not all people are just like what you think, that needs an advice of people around you, some of them chose to be alone. They have still their own decisions even they receive advices from others.
I agree, each people have their own way of quitting from gambling. Some people needs some advice to help themselves to quit. Some can quit by only themselves. It depends on what type of person we are. Some feels comfortable if they adviced by their friends. And some can deal alone with it. And another type of person may need professional help like the one a psychologist can offer so they can quit gambling for good and unfortunately there will be people unable to quit the habit. It's impossible, we can all solve the problem with addiction as every problem has a solution. The time matters as it depends on the gravity of the problem and the willingness of a person who wanted to be changed, when it's more serious, it needs full cooperation and more time to solve the problem. Disagree, not every person is able to come back from the hell that is addiction, I would like for everyone to eventually get better but that will be ignoring reality, some people cannot get over their addiction is a sad truth but we must acknowledge it. So what you are saying is that an addicted gambler will never be heal? I think you are too negative as a person, even criminals have a chance to change their lives for the better which I believe more serious than being addicted, what I believe while we are living in this this world, we all have a chance to change ourselves even how big or serious the problem we are into. |

An addicted gambler should be very submissive for a chance, let you family help you and so as your friends for a faster result, if you will doubt their help you will remain addicted and we know the outcome to that if cannot be cured at an early stage, it my result to bankruptcy which is the worst thing that might happen to you.
That's true, as they say if there's a smoke there's a fire. So for me, if we don't know how gambling works or we don’t have any reason to gamble then I guess we will never get addicted in gambling. Because once we get it started it will really make us get addicted because gambling really easy to hooked up. the problem here are about to quit gambling , means you have know already about gambling and decide want to leave , not about to should not know about gambling itself , really hard to quit gambling. but with a high intention , i guess you can do it . do another activity more often than gambling in daily basis. Yeah, doing some other things/stuff other than gambling will surely help you also to stay away in gambling, I think it is not that easy for an addicted person to quit immediately but at least it will lessen his/her gambling games. The only cure to addiction is not to lessen your gambling games, you have to totally quit and possible do not do gambling for the rest of your life. Maybe that depends of the level of addiction, when it's too deep it will already give negative impact in our life and we should quit by all means. |

chicago is bouncing back now and they are in the lead i guess your bet is still in a winning status, they just love to show strength in the second half i guess, me i'm messed up with my piston's bet they are down by 18 points and i don't know if 8 mins left still enough for them to catch up.
Bulls only had the lead once in this game and I think it was by 1 point only.  Man do they really do SUCK!  It's late in the 3rd and they are down 7 points and are at freaking home!  What is wrong with them. They are shooting themselves in the foot right now! I knew I should of bet against them because I bet on them last week and lost that home game too! What losers they are I CAN'T BELIEVE IT RIGHT NOW! I am so mad at Chicago right now with both of their sports teams! just like what i've said chicago manage to win the game if you bet with ML for sure even you are frustrated with them you will enjoy your winnings, detroit loses the game and sacas well without lilard its really mccoloum and turner manage to carry portland for sure this young guns will be now recognized after defeating cousin. There's no value betting on the bulls ML @ 1.16, you are not getting a good return and the team even almost lost the game. Meanwhile, even without lillard, the Blazers are known to be playing like a team and they can easily beat the hell out of cousins playing at their home court. Honestly, I beat on the Blazers -2.5 even without Lillard and I was so confident with my beat and does not sweat at all, throughout the game. |

yeah bitcoin is the future of money because bitcoin is very much popular currency and bitcoin getting more popularity day to day and a lot of people adopting bitcoin for the future and a huge number of people store their money in bitcoin.
For me bitcoin is really a future of money because its getting popular nowadays and most users as far as i had observed were young individuals particularly in tradings of altcoins. Digital currencies like crypto currency will gain its reputation as well as fiat currency will also be recognized as future money which people have their own optional use whether they use bitcoin or fiat because both of them were very compatible at all and they became like partners in the future of online transactions. My prediction in the future is bitcoin will be popular but fiat will not loses it's popularity over bitcoin. As you said, you see young individuals that are using bitcoin but this world is not for young people only, there are people who does not recognize bitcoin as money but as a scam and we do not need that kind of people as whatever we do, their mind is close for changes. |

Gambling is not going to help you with your life unless you win big and then stop.
You have a point but it is not always the case. If you look at the documentation on how gambling helps people in their daily life, you will be amazed that this game save people from insanity, boredome, social attention and a lot more. Gambling does not only revolve in wagering and staking, there is also social aspects that develop around the environment of a gambling Casino. Aside from that recreational activity in Casino help to ease tension and stress. I know there are people who are earning big amount in gambling including those professional gamblers who are joining leagues and tournaments that has a big prize for the winners. And with that way, they think that gambling is their only life and that is helping them to be financially stable but that only applies for them. And for us who are thinking that it can happen with our lives, I guess that is hard to believe that gambling will help us that way. If you feel you have the skills that they have, you can always join them. It's a very risky journey making money in gambling and as you said only the professionals are doing it, what I know is that only few are successful while a bunch of us are losers. If one is willing to try despite of the reality then I can say he is a big risk taker and just hope for success. You know that it is always hard to believe with our feelings. Sometimes when we are lucky we feel that it would lasts any longer. But having a feeling that way and join those professional gamblers I don't think so that I can be qualified and competent to be like them. I'm already contented to gamble for having fun just to relieve my stress and by that way gambling is helping me with it. It's more on the performance than our feelings, our performance does not lie so it's advisable for a gambler who want to make a serious steps towards the future to start tracking their records, if they have a good winning percentage then it's a positive sign for a go. I like sports betting and so far my record does not say I can be successful but as a gambler we always seek for improvement, so I'm still positive. |

I'm not sure that the people who say that they are gambling for the benefit they get what they want. I thought it was just wishful thinking to themselves. Because the fact, more lose money than make money. That fact, and you should be able to accept it. Maybe there are a handful of lucky people who benefit from gambling. So lying or not, can be accepted or not, gambling is a game played just for fun.
Yup...gambling is just for fun. We should treat it as a way to try our luck in a very limited time only. Recently, I saw a lot people that already got lucky while gambling but they keep betting and forced they luck and finally as the final result they got busted. You can tell that due to greediness they lose in the end, there's no way this kind of people will succeed in the long run. Making money in gambling is only possible in the long run unless you win the lottery, and to win in the long run, gambler must be discipline and will continue to execute the game plan properly. |

I don't count myself as a gambler, so I don't feel shame for that. I gamble not so often, just once a week when I get free ticket on slot game on one site. And I even don't spend my own bitcoins for that, when I spend this free spins I count my game as over.
a gambler = someone who have ever placed a bet to gamble , ,and you have done it before isn't it? then you are officially a gambler lol. you mean maybe not an addicted gambler that can make you broke, is that what you mean? someone can feel so shameful if they hiding something , otherwhise why we have to feel like that? What could be something that we can hide in gambling? I think if you are matured enough to gamble you already understand what is gambling for and will never be ashamed because you are at the right age to do it. You can only be ashamed if because of gambling you have made things that are illegal and you started to let your life controlled by your gambling addiction. |

My kids are young and still they dont understand how money works but in few years i will teach them to how thing works with bitcoin and fiat
Bitcoin will surely live long, and I am hoping as well that my children in the future will have the same interest like mine, I am going to tell them that living in the crypto world gives more opportunity than in real life world. Here, you have full control of your time and you are the boss. |

The only gambling where your skill plays a significant role to help you win the game is either sports betting like soccer or texas holdem poker. This texas holdem poker in fact is 90% based on your skill and 10% based on luck.
Dice,slots, blackjack are game of chances where they are pre programed to make you lose money in the long run.
You should quit luck games and try skill ones, if even in skill games you are bad, then quit gambling.
Correct if you are weak in knowledge base game better stay away from this gambling or you can afford your loss play slot games just for fun. The slot games only give you entertainment and these games are not profitable. Only the skill games like sports betting and other card games are profitable. If you ask me, i will suggest you play sports betting. yes there are so many gambling games which do not need any knowledge or experience as these games depend on your luck, for example in dice games there is no use of skill and experience there you can only depend on your luck. Luck based games are only good if played for fun, since most of them has a house advantage we will not gonna win despite of our hard work to make effort to win, that reality must be understood by every gambler so they will no longer make effort to experiment and just use their time wisely to do productive things that will bring them profit. |

The risk is really high if you are going to make gambling as a profitable activity and I was thinking about only one thing that you are able to make gambling as profitable thing without any investment involved.
You mean to say only if we are able to gamble without any investment then only we will get chances to be in profitable in gambling activities? I agree with this point as I am a gambler, always looking for free giveaways and fauctes to make use of them for my gambling. Many times I may not have enough time to make them to grow till payout threshold. But, entertainment is completely guaranteed for free of cost. That's one of the point because you are not even risking your own money and every time you are going to gamble those free money and giveaways that you'll get is going to be your major investment together with your time. But of course there are some gamblers that are totally making gambling as a real job since they afford to invest and to lose any amount. Still you will not be able to make a decent amount of money even without risk, for me I consider it as waste of time especially doing faucet. For kids, maybe it's profitable to them but when you are expecting a bigger return, the only way to make it is to let your money make money as that is the nature of gambling, of course you all need to take the risk. Fortunately the big profit also big risks, I think we should dare to take risks. If we are afraid of the risk, of course there will be no major changes in our life. All success peoples always take high risk, we must follow they. Taking risk is necessary if you want to have a successful life, however doing it in gambling is not a good idea as when calculating the risk it's big and the advantage to win the game does not favor us. We can invest on the other hand but only up to the amount we can lose, gambling sites are profitable but always consider they can scam investors when they feel they are not doing good anymore. |

HI every one i loss everything in this gambling. Now i am empty hand and now i am realize there is no life in Gambling. Like this any body thinking please share here.
There is as long as you know how to control. Set your priorities and bet only what you afford to lose. Dont rush things . Right. We really need to think before entering in any decisions. It will really help so that there is no regret in the end. Keep your plan .set your limit values if you win that much stop when you lose that much stop too.make your game fun. It's a consequence which must be accepted if they have decided to gamble like when you have to decide on something that you do not like it when you get trouble, you should be able to accept it. Of course, you have to accept whatever the outcome of your gambling session, it's wise to plan ahead of your gambling session so you can decide what to do when to stop when winning or losing, as long as you will stay focus and discipline you will be able to enjoy gambling. It's always fun to play if you know that gambling is not your life and will never have a big part of your life. |

The best way is save your money in bitcoin to prevent decreasing value of fiat. Do not worry becouse so many countries in the world were accept bitcoin now. Bitcoin, gold and real estate is good but fiat is worst.
Exactly. It is best to invest into Bitcoin, as it proves to become a good store of value as price increases over time. You can see Bitcoin more of like digital gold, where it gets expensive over time the scarcer it gets. While fiat tends to decrease in value, since governments inflate their currencies, you can rest assured that your investment would be kept safe by relying on Bitcoin, and Gold. Nevertheless, it is best to invest and save money, to have control of your financial life for years to come. The more you invest into Bitcoin, and the more you save or hold it, the more money you will make. Just my opinion.  That's how we think because we have too much believe in bitcoin that will be very popular in the future, it's good since it will appreciate its value but anything can happen including the bad side of bitcoin, with lack of government support the risk of becoming to be a threat is very big, we must also keep that into consideration. |
