It is profitable if you have a big capital. You can recover your losses if you have a big capital in gambling. You can endure many lossing streaks and won't lose easily from it. If you have big capitalcin gambling you must have a good discipline in terms of controling yourself when to stop when gambling.
No it is not, if you have a big bankroll you can play longer that is true and since you can play for longer periods of time you may get the impression that having a big bankroll helps you but eventually losses will begin to pile up and the same thing that happens to almost everyone in gambling will happen, you will lose money.
The bankroll mattes so having a good bankroll is good however you need to learn how to manage it properly. It's like being rich that became poor with lack of financial management. Everyone should understand that we are playing risk here and we could lose our wealth if we are not too careful.

managing your money in gambling is 10 times more important than having a big amount of money in gambling. you have to manage the bankroll in a way that you never bust out and that is the hard part otherwise anybody can come up with a large sum of money to gamble with and then lose it all.
Managing our money is not only important in gambling but in every aspect of our lives, there are many persons that  received huge sums of money and squander it all for lack of money management skills.
It's our responsibility to take care of our finances very well, your right, some people receive great income but due to their failure to manage their money still they are not living a comfortable life. My understanding of comfortable life, is when you do not have problem of money in the current situation and you are prepared for the future.

The only way that can be achieve is when you learn how to save, it's important for better future to paid for your unexpected expenses and to fund you future investment plan.

While gambling is still good only when the funds you allocate is on a little portion of your income, just to have entertainment ocassionally.

If you are a gambling addict with no luck and always lose when make a bet then it is very nice decision if you quit from it before you lose everything what you have  Grin
Even if you have the luck but that's for a temporary basis only, when you are an addict in gambling most likely you greedy as well so even if you win you will face the consequences of your addiction in the long run. Gambling addiction has not good outcome for every gambler, don't let addiction control you as what we need in gambling is to be smart as hell.

5584  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: November 28, 2016, 04:00:42 AM
I always heard to my mind instead of going with my heart, because in gambling, you should never trust your emotions but your instinct.
If you can't stop gambling when losing, then this is not for you, and if you know how to deal with it and how and where to use your skills and knowledge to win, then you can do it.
Not only that, it's not only you will consider to stop when you are losing as it's very important to control yourself in stopping when you are winning as well. Therefore, for you to carry it right, you must have a game plan which includes the target of your loses and winnings and you have to stop no matter what.
5585  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you want to become Rich you need to Put Higher bets on: November 28, 2016, 03:52:07 AM
Not really. If you really want to become rich then you need to have plan first and how you can really make it through betting only off course you need to play hard there and then by playing harder you need some good advice of your co-player or co - league maybe in the good strategies well that's really good but somehow you need some good capital also to start a bet high but if you are playing for the exact profit then you will get that for sure.

I totally agree - by betting higher bets alone does not guarantee at all that you will get rich. The only sure thing that will happen is that you will going to lose than winning if you don't have any pre-planned betting and good strategies. It is very high risk to gamble randomly regardless of whether or not the amount of bet is high or low.
Even a rich man is still playing gambling i can see poker every tournaments and normal getting rich in poker is really good when you are in high bets chair but sometimes being poor too is really fast that you don't know that you can lose everything you've got and yes it's really high risk to gamble

Yeah the chance of risks is too high when you place higher bets and there's no chance for you to recover when you lose unless you have unlimited resources like rich people.. but for normal people just like me it's better to place minimal bets either way you can't be rich at all when you gamble. unless you won a jackpot in lottery or you hit a jackpot one time big time.
Taking big chances in high risk is a high possibilities that we are going to win higher profits too. But there's no really chance to recover what we've lost already in gambling because the more we chase it the more we lose in gambling we can really make our self rich when we hit the jackpot in lottery.
i think we should not increase the investment from the amount that we cannot bare to lose and specially in gambling as there are very little chance of recovery therefore we should always try to invest such amount that we can bare to lost, i think we should fix our limit in gambling so as to avoid a big lost.
Talking about investment in gambling, I can say you have a greater chance to be profitable as the house always win. You do not need to do further research for investing in gambling house as long as you will be able to invest in a reputable gambling site you are good to go.
5586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: November 28, 2016, 03:43:21 AM
Another record made by Russell Westbrook by doing his seventh triple-double of the season on a recent win over the Detroit Pistons. What interesting here is, the NBA is just on the first phase of the season so expect some more records set by this guy. He is really eyeing for the MVP spot and Im sure he is really trying hard to enter the top 3.

http://www.foxsports.com/nba/story/oklahoma-city-thunder-russell-westbrook-triple-double-oscar-robertson-season-average-nba-history-record-112616

I noticed that 2016-2017 season gives us new records set. What is next? Still have many games remaining and Im sure some unexpected records will surprised us.


Westbrook if remain healthy throughout the season will definitely hit more triple doubles, he is everything in his team and without him his team is nothing. This guy is taking over everything as you can see base on his record, but the question now is, will his triple double record can keep the OKC to the playoffs?

Hope his hard play doesn't burn them in the end. Him being their everything man could bite them in crunch time if he gets hurt or decides he's done with OKC. Or even if OKC decides to rebuild now that KD is gone.

Just do a rampage everytime he is on the coutr. Forget those injuries since it will bring him regrets. He is under motivation now to prove that Oklahoma City Thunders can cope up with the league even without Kevin Durant. Im sure OKC will do something to pay back that "hard play" he is doing. For now I don't see he will left the team because of tiredness just like Kevin Garnett did back in Minnesota Timberwolves days where frustation is the reason why he left.

Im sure so that every of his teammates are doing what they can to help RW out. Let's just see.

It's too early to tell, despite the fact that lack of support from his teammates, westrbrook still manage to win a game for them. He is surely a gifted player but one thing that is certain here, we judge by results and not just talent we see.

He needs to prove he can bring his team to a higher level.

Sports betting is a good choice. it is very hard to get manipulated by online gambling sites unlike other games such as poker and all. Which site is the best when it comes to sports betting?

Good choice on games, it can't be denied because most gamblers believe in sports betting, the site cannot manipulate as it's base on the actual outcome of the game, the only it can be manipulated is when the sports will be rigged. However, that's not cheating since you can bet on any team you like, if you feel there's a rigged game, bet on the team you expect to win.
5588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 27, 2016, 11:04:18 AM
I just gambled to day and more better to gambling than to invest if you are unpatient person you are going to choose gambling, In investment it always took 30 days or 1 month  before your money will back with 5% profit depends on how the investment gives you in gambling you can get more than enough bitcoin for 1 month Smiley
may be useful to do these two things, because by investing and gambling, you can make a lot of money if you're lucky, if you lose in gambling games then do not worry, because you still have an investment that will make your money back, so I guess more good to do both
You can't do both effective, it's either you investment will be ruin or you will be rich in the future, but none of that made sense when you need to take all the risk to be able to succeed, and base on my calculation, our chances is pretty lower compared to just focus in investment alone.
5589  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: November 27, 2016, 10:57:14 AM
Basically my primary aim in gambling is to win. But i find it hard to accomplish my aim because everytime i loss a portion of my initial bankroll i get greedy always in recovering it, i mean after losing 10% of my bankroll next bet i will all in everything i have but most of the time i kept losing trying to recover.
This is usually wanted of all gambling players is to win and get a higher profit, Well for me I do not chase my losing since there you basically lose your money better to calm first after you get lose, I learn that lesson after I lose so much btc back before.
Think of tomorrow as definitely there are still tomorrow to bet, the moment we chase it's either we will go home big or we lose all our money. We don't like that as we want to enjoy and last long with gambling. The most important things to consider is we must learn how to be a discipline gambler.

Do not decide when you are angry and when you are too happy.
5590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: November 27, 2016, 03:00:32 AM
If you have a problem with gambling, then you should not gamble at all. Otherwise, I think it can be a good source of entertainment if you view it as a way to have fun rather than a way to make money.
For some people gambling is not as entertainment only but more on a way to make money, they do there ways to achieve their goal but in the end they failed. The result is Gambling problem, they must understand that there is nothing to be blame but themselves.
5591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: November 27, 2016, 02:52:47 AM
Many people said the gambling is just a game and another people said it is Investment. How do you think?  Roll Eyes

That really depends on one's skill set, level of experience, and game of choice.  There are games that are skill based, chance based, and mixed games of both skill and chance.  I would say that the the games which require more skill can be considered as more of an investment in one's ability; whereas, games of chance are more of a gamble.
Skills in gambling is vital as it's only our way to be successful, we have to win in the long  run and if we can do that, it would prove that we can be profitable in gambling and when we are profitable we are confident of investment more money as our bankroll for better return.

I tried your site and I have noticed that I can deposit to only one BTC address. Is there a way to add more addresses? It's a standard feature to all BTC services, especially the ones that involve gambling. Thanks for listening.
What's wrong with one address mate? I guess it's alright, I have accounts in other sportsbook with the same feature but when I withdraw my funds they will use their default wallet to release my bitcoins. I have not tried changing address because their is no reason, but anyway, let's wait for the admin to answer your query.
5593  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: November 26, 2016, 02:39:27 AM
Gambling is a game that could give you a lot of money in a short period of time but at the same time could lose you a lot of money. Very addictive wether you win or lose on the first time you've tried. You'll get hooked.

That's the basic definition that comes to my mind if I am thinking about gambling. I just have a doubt that it will get you addicted the first time you try it. Addiction is not instant, before it get rooted, there must be a very strong reason and possibly a staked money or anything, thinking that you cannot get out without pulling them all out, which is very impossible.
On the other hand if you will consider it as an entertainment, it could give different meaning and we can avoid addiction here. It's a game that one should enjoy which at the same time he has to spend money to be entertain. That's it, the main reason is entertainment not making money.
5594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: November 26, 2016, 02:13:07 AM
When i gamble, i tryed it for a short period, i didnt searched anything since it were slots games, i havent made any research neither at sports betting, i choosed the biggest teams, like Barcelona, Real Madrid, FCPorto, well the most know and best teams, with that i were able to make good results but the odds were 1.20 or lower then those.

All the things we do in gambling should be done with the best possible way. Without you doing anything analysis or just do a game without thinking of a few things then I think it is all a very dangerous action. For all gambling thing can be detrimental for us if it could not do the correct calculation. Maybe that's true for you, but it all does not mean everyone can do it

i agree with you, the analysis for the gambling is only work for one person and not for all gamblers because i have trying this method which my friends give the analysis to me and its not work at all, all of my money has gone in just second. maybe if i made a little modification the analysisi will work for me but so far, i am not use any analysis or strategy again.
For sure we have different ways to analyze the game but still be judge base on the outcome.  If we are gambling hoping to win in the long run, it's good to learn how to analyze games but only up to the game that gives as a chance to win with our skills.

I don't think in luck base games, we still need to analyze.

Investments are the best thing you could do to your asset if you are smart enough and have the time to learn the markets if not do not bother to invest your money be it in digital market or the real market,if you are planning to risk your money study the market carefully.
We have to upgrade to that level if we want to have a good future, we can't play safe in this world, those people who are rich already have tried their luck investing their money and when you invest you take the risk.

Therefore, it's important to invest you capacity and how much are you willing to lose.
5596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: November 25, 2016, 03:59:00 AM
Have anyone here actually gamble as form of contemplation game of chances and to learn about different games?
Because I recently started to learn rules of some rare casino games like: Casino Wars, Sic Bo, Chuck a Luck or Three-Card Poker.
And I don't expect to play for money these games anytime soon, I just like to know what they are about.
I have not played any of the games you mentioned and I do not have interest in that kind of games. Actually, I only play limited games like dice, roulette, and my favorite which is sports betting.

My aim is to win money but I am okay if I lose because it's gambling and it works that way.
5597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it a sin to gamble? on: November 25, 2016, 03:30:54 AM
Most people in my place will say gambling is a sin. Why? In most cases, gambling will lead people to a bunch of bad things. First, with gambling people can ruin his life and his family due to the end result for most gambling activities is a lose. Second, with gambling people can be very lazy. They tend to forget their responsibility in the real life(jobless). And still much more bad effects caused by gambling.

But, for some people that able to manage their time and money, this activity can give them a good entertainment.
If you are referring to a sin it should be the law of God for everybody and making a statement that most people are not getting benefits in gambling is not equivalent to all, so that is not a sin. It is just those people who are not getting good results are not seeing what gambling is supposed to be for.
5598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: November 24, 2016, 02:57:56 AM
Yes i just played for 15 hours straight and i made some good profit in the end if you are going to think and always revise your strategies make sure that you are not greedy when you are loosing too much gambling is need patience and don't it to be rush gambling can really be a profitable in a long term of playing.

That's good to know that you have made some good profit out of that 15 hours straight and it made productive to you. And your advise is helpful, because many greed people thinking that gambling is really a profitable activity in the long run which is somehow true but that depends on how they will take it. Because out of that aim makes them more greedy which fall into not profitable so they usually say that it is just profitable for short term.
What if your lose in your 15 hours straight gambling?

I guess it's a waste of time and money as well. I have been gambling for years but I not do that kind of time spent in gambling, I can still do a lot of more productive things. It will make your frustrate if the opposite outcome happened.
5599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it a sin to gamble? on: November 24, 2016, 02:46:23 AM
No its not and pretty sure it wont going to be a sin
That is the truth, because we cannot blame gambling for our lose as we know already how risky gambling is. We need to understand that we are being advise to play for fun so we do not have the right to call gambling as wrong after every lose. Let's be fair.
We are the moral agents and not a dice or a roulette the ones doing mistakes is us humans, so we cannot blame anyone else but ourselves of our mistakes.

Religious beliefs are making gambling is a sin, I'm not against them and nor against with you guys. It is just going to depend on how you are going to take it lightly or hardly. If you are keeping committing a sin through gambling like womanizing because that's one of the aim of most of the gamblers. Because if they have money, they can just simply buy woman and that's how gambling falls into sin.
They are but people have different religions so we cannot say that gambling is a sin in general. The only thing that we can make as a basis is the law since most laws in certain countries are similar as they base it in international standards.

People have options to follow the law of God or the law of the government, but for me I gamble but I do not consider it as a sin.
5600  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: November 24, 2016, 02:35:21 AM
So.... how much have you win or loss gambling ?? And what did you stake ?
I've lost about $60 so far but im planning to win it back. Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
A saying well said, however i still need to learn it since my greed is my downfall. Guys and girls
how much money have you made or lost gambling ? Any pointers or warnings ? 
I always playing in gambling with small capital let's say that im going to play with the capital of 0.015 of bitcoin and then if i turn it into 0.03 or double it i just stop playing gambling i don't try to push my luck when i already when then i stop i don't want to take my profit back or get again set goal is always a matter.

Really you are treating 0.015 BTC as small capital? That is even my biggest or maximum amount of gambling. And that is the best thing to do, when we are able to make our capital double then that's the right time to stop. Because if you will aim to make it tripled then you will also have another problem for it, just don't expect too much and aim too much.

Yup 0.015 BTC is not a small capital, and it's around 10 to 12$ bet this is a big amount for me. And doubling your amount to get back your loss or to increase your profit that is the best time to stop your play. Otherwise, it will take us to make our wallet empty. In gambling whatever comes, we just accept that we don't expect more.

That's true, because if we are not going to get contented on how much we won for that capital it will just lead us into more losing and discouraging results as we gamble. That amount for us, who really can afford to lose because our resources are just limited but I saw some high rollers in dice sites who are even betting whole BTC and luckily able to win higher than we are expecting.
The thing is we do not have the same betting amount of other gamblers because we do not have the same status in life, if they can afford bet a whole bitcoin then they also have a bigger chance to win bigger amount. We have to accept that and let us not follow their path as we are unique individuals.
