Thequin how could you say "other factors" when there is literally a lambo giveaway on the website Cheesy lol, it is obvious that lambo did managed to help you guys out to get bigger.

You are saying the %99.5 of it was "givenaway" but considering there is 5.75 million tickets sold even 50k of it being bought at 25k satoshi each would equal to 12 bitcoins, which means around 100k tickets bought regularly, I am not even talking about the part where you guys given away tickets to people who gambled 50k satoshi, even at 5 million of those equals to 2500 bitcoins gambled, sure there could be wins as well as losses but on average at 5% you should be looking at 125!!! bitcoins, which equals to close to a million dollars.

Now, I am not saying you should come up and say "we struck gold with this" but if you ever try to mean you didn't profit like a King over this, you are being a liar.

It's hard to just give up, people persistent in gambling that day, so they can't just tell themselves they'll try tomorrow. Why is this difficult? Is it because of greed?
There are lots of other factors which are influencing gamblers to spend more, but I too guess greed must be the prime one for a pushing a gambler to get start with gambling. If there is no chances of earning from gambling then I guess there would have been a gambling industry like what we are having today. Greed plays a vital role is destroying a gambler's plan first and then a gambler's life itself too.

Mostly I redeposited my winnings and then bust it. I solve this by creating a paper wallet and just withdraw a part of the winnings to that. By doing that I can't easily redeposit and just keep the winnings.
Sounds like a working idea. Previously I have heard people are blocking gambling sites to prevent themselves from gambling. I read some ISP/modem setting are also being used for blocking gambling sites. When we gamble under parental or any family member guidelines, we may easily stop after some times of gambling, regardless of we make losses or profits.

Yeeey, first game is a win, I knew Sixers would be easily beating Celtics, now 5 in a row left (which is still highly unlikely but at least it is better odds than 6 in a row). I would like to get them all back to back not only because money (which is like 90% of the reason lets be honest here) but also I feel like I need to know it since I have been watching NBA for over 20 years by now, so as a person who has been watching NBA for over 2 decades I should know whats going to happen no matter what the results are.

Maybe I will fail in between somewhere but as long as it continues all year I feel like 6 days in a row is possible at least once (even if I try 10 times meanwhile) so I will continue to do it until I finally have it, it is going to take a long long time tho.

Let me inform you that your "ico marketing company" gives a warning when trying to visit by mcaffee, it literally says it is not protected.

I guess it is about https or whatever and you not having the protection but even that slightest part is actually enough reason not to use you as a marketing agency for sure. If a company doesn't take care of itself first then I wouldn't trust my own company to them at all.

Make sure you get your stuff done before you try to get others business, this mistake makes you look like a one man shop that some guy sitting at home in front of his PC trying to get customers so he can get rich and hire employees to do his job after a while, not a "company" like a office and all that. Sorry if I am being harsh, I am just giving my feedback so you can get better.
5605  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Coach on: October 24, 2019, 01:45:42 PM
You better be careful if someone should approach and claim to be a good coach. Some people will just come to take your money from you and nothing else. I have tried things like this, especially joining telegram groups that claims to help people in trading and give signals when you pay, but they all ended up making no sense.

Instead of you to make such a mistake it would be better for you to just forget about day trading for now and focus on long term trading till you perfect your skills in trading and when you become perfect you can then start day trading. Long term trading is more easy and you will see a lot of sites that can help you with that and they usually accurate, just like Cointelegraph top ten cryptocurrency analysis. Just be very careful so you don't mess up.

The game was alright for both sides, there is no need to overreact on literally game one of the season. Lakers looked like they could actually be good if they could just implement AD into center position more often, he doesn't have to start there but when someone smaller is at Center on the other team he could just switch there. On offense they lacked a cohesion because they haven't been playing together for too long so it will take some time to build that chemistry but over time I am sure that will happen as well. Clippers on the other hand looked really scary, this team was the team that came back from 31 point difference and beat GSW last year and they have added Kawhi on top of that (plus PG but he is injured), they looked like they can defend anyone at any position the whole game, they will be like 2004 pistons but with faster offense.
5608  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Donating the Gambling profits on: October 20, 2019, 07:06:52 PM
Have you ever thought of donating the gambling profits to a charitable cause ?  Sometime people won a big lottery or very high amount of money from betting & gambling games.  Do you ever thought of being generous and helping the poor with this money ?
I never thought that way as I never ended up my day in profits after gambling. I believe I will not be having any problem to donate if I finish my gambling activities with some profits. Yes, I will definitely denote at least 10% of my profits; it means I do not need to win BIG to think about donating; it is like any amount could be a good amount when it comes about donating. But, the only catch is I must end up my gambling in profits which is unfortunately a long chase and I guess I could never ever achieve in my life time.

Probably, I may donate some big money from my bitcoin profits; Yes, I am holding bitcoins with long term plans and I may donate from them after bitcoin prices reaching some huge levels. This is the only definite plan I am having with respect to donation and I am sorry my donation plans are not based on gambling.

Interestingly there is a point to be made but with much less ego of course.

Yes, it is of course not provably fair if there is a chance of it, which means the provably fair wording should definitely be changed, but that is devans topic not RHavars, RHavar is basically just a consultant of sorts and looking at how the people have been profiting from the gambling I doubt they are working together to scam people, yet that doesn't change the fact that investing requires trust to two people instead of being super totally decentralized way, I trust you guys with all my money that is no problem to me at all but some others may not so the wording should definitely be changed to something that represents the current situation better if you ask me. Not what RHavar said Cheesy that looks a bit unprofessional, something that is more like "we do business in wall street mate" level of professionalism Cheesy.
5610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst Day of My LIFE - Dice on: October 20, 2019, 12:53:43 PM
What is the occasion today for you? I mean what pushed you to plan a gambling by borrowing big money? Honestly, I am not ready to feel sorry for your losses nor for your situation. You are a sr.member here with 1400+ posts still you have not learned the how cruel these gambling are. That is the exact point where you have slipped which costs you now totally $1850.

At the beginning it went good, and when my profit reached $200 started to fail. Once I began to loss I was out of my control. Within minutes everything went out of my control, my mind didn't had the ability to think. I just doubled the bets consecutively.
It seems you were allowed to gain more than $10% of your bankroll but like most other gamblers, I guess you also might have started to gamble with no preset limits. Always I recommend to plan up for targets wherever you go like it could be either gambling or trading.

Now I was in a situation to repay my friend the borrowed amount. Please don't borrow and spend on gambling, it might give an earning, but that mostly leads to suffering. Cry
This is the situation of all the gamblers who are into the gambling without the sense of responsibilities. I like to suggest you to find ways not to repeat the same types of mistakes at least in future as you might get lots of other earning methods to recover this losses. Life is too big with full of opportunities just go and find them instead of worrying about today's bad events.
5611  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Bitcoin is not that good as currency? on: October 20, 2019, 12:36:17 PM
Why wouldn't it be as good as fiat? I mean the question assumes that bitcoin is not "currency" to begin with, it says "why its not good as currency", well it is a currency and its quite a good one at that. So, the question is in itself very wrong and there is no answer to a question that is wrong to begin with. But leaving aside the fact that "a wrong question can't have a correct answer" part of the deal, just because bitcoin can be a great investment method doesn't mean it can't also be a great currency.

Just to give an example dollar itself is not an investment method in USA because they use it, but in Venezuela if you had dollars saved up before the inflation and got them cheap, you could have sold them for a lot higher after the inflation which would have made it both a great investment and a great currency.
5612  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we looking at Bitcoin down to $5K? on: October 20, 2019, 08:31:43 AM
Bitcoin looks to be doing better than expected. Every expects it to go down like crazy before a big upwards movement starts and everyone talks about how bitcoin should be dropping to $5k but we are still going strong, sure we had a little downwards movement and I am upset about it and hope that we will go back up soon but that doesn't mean that bitcoin is down and gone, its still doing quite well and I am pretty sure it will do even better in few weeks.

I am waiting for November already, usually those are the times people start to make their big investments, November and December, if November goes bad then it will be a bad year for us until halving time, if it happens to be good we are going to have a huge bull year in 2020 for sure. Gonna wait another 5 weeks to figure out which one it will be.
5613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: October 19, 2019, 04:01:02 PM
Zion is not "overrated", people who think media is excited about a number one overall pick gonna be beast thinks they mean pelicans drafted a Lebron or an MJ.

It is not like that, check out the last 10 years, there have been very few players who came out of number one overall pick that was as physically as talented as Zion, dude is a beast physically, he is not tall but definitely heavy and still can rebound and dunk very well. Sure, he can still get better by losing a bit weight and playing with a bit different styles instead of just explosiveness but that doesn't mean that he is not good, he is one of the best draft picks of the last 10 years and would totally be in top 20 pick in 5 to 10 years if he stays healthy.

Nobody thinks he is going to be hall of famer right away, or maybe ever, but considering there have been people picked at 13th spot playing better than 1st pick in some of those years, its a good feeling that pelicans picked the clear best of that draft, not "maybe" the best (Ayton going over Luka is a joke for example) but 100% the best in this draft.
5614  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC- When it back to 20k on: October 19, 2019, 02:53:53 PM
I have no "calculations" that would result with us having a $20k bitcoin price, but I think the answer of "long term" is always valid, because in the end bitcoin is something limited and even tho we have thousands of them printed everyday until may and then even thousands in couple days will be possible so the "limited" nature is not really too limiting right now but eventually it will be, we are in year 10 right now and 18 million of 21 million is already printed, in the end if the coding is as solid as we trust it, eventually there will be all coins printed and the coins will dry up and price will skyrocket for sure.

It may take some time, we need to be patient, but in the end we will see it happening for sure, just wait for the miners to not print out as much as they are right now.

The wars are ever changing, look at USA right now, they are in war with China but it is not a war that goes with weapons anymore, it is financial. Remember a few years ago when Russian money became %50 worthless over night? Saudi Arabia dropped the oil prices for USA and Russia imports oil all the time so when their Oil started to worth a lot less their own currency dropped as well, all thanks to USA-Saudi correlation to attack Russia's finances.

Nowadays, those are the real wars, sure there are stuff going on in Syria but that is not really a big "war" it is just terrorism at this point, nations attacking each other like USA-Iraq is not really happening anymore, they realized they could make more money this way so they decided not to go to war with each other on land.

I think the contest got the 200 million bets help, I mean as soon as these contests started we saw a skyrocketing number of both wagering numbers going up plus the wagering count as well, right now we are at around 200 million bets made and it was not like that just a week ago, we are on pace to be as fast as 3-4 months ago a full month inside a week, so our one month would be equal to 4 months back in spring time.

With more contests (and HOPEFULLY more fixed days instead of randomly popping up the same god damn contest) we will definitely get to 300 million very very quickly, I would say early 2020 would be quite possible like January all depending on if windice makes this more frequent and with a fixed intervals so people would know when they will bet on the contest.

Question is, is there an official statement or there is something stated in the terms and conditions that we can use VPN or VPN is allowed when playing at Bitsler giving the benefit of a doubt that the player has no bad intention in using such VPN in logging in at Bitsler.
Generally, there is no problem with using VPN.
But terms and condition says that:
14.1. Having more than 2 accounts is strictly forbidden(by person/IP/house/family).
So, if you use VPN and have a same IP with anther Bitsler user, you might get in trouble. But as examplens said, the probablity of having a same IP with another Bitsler user is very low.
Well, when you are using a VPN it shows that you are connecting from a different IP, which could be looked like you got hacked or at least you have been playing on a place that is legal then it became a place that is illegal, who knows.

In the end when you play with your VPN it basically clouds the judgement of the casinos as well, they don't know what to do, there is a high chance of nothing happening and they let you go and everything is perfect but there is that small tiny chance that basically could mean you are hacked so they have to do something about it, then they know if there is money in the account you will contact them and try to figure something out, at least they hope so. So, there is a really weird threshold of using it or not and its all up to the player to pick which one they want.

Aiden Markram scored a century in the warm up match and i thought he will be playing well in Indian condition
Credits goes to Indian pace attract. If I remember correct, on both of the innings of 2nd test, he got out LBW but by different bowlers. As he became a LBW candidate, Indian bowlers attracted him without letting him settle down. This is the reason, he got out before get off the mark. After 2 ducks in a test, I was thinking like, he wont get another chance where South Africa may play for pride like they push for a draw at least. But, now he is injured so a new player may get his test debut.

Don't understand why to be so frustrated and then harm your own-self by acting immature. It costed him the test match now.
All the news that we are hearing do not need to be as it has to be. It is an usual thing in cricket history that all the out-of-form players are getting injury and making themselves unavailable for a crucial clash.


For 3rd test, Indian may think about testing the strength of their bench. But, I am sure Wriddhiman Saha will not lose his cloves even Indian future plans are highly depending on Rishabh Pant. India may rest Ishant Sharma as Umesh Yadav is seeming more promising than Ishant. Shubman Gill is the another man may get his long awaited opportunity.
5619  Economy / Economics / Re: If the stocks market will crash again like 2008, what will happen to bitcoin on: October 17, 2019, 07:19:38 PM
I still think there won't be a crash like 2008, that was a one time deal that hurt the economy in a global scale, people learnt from that and now not really depending on american money as much as they used to, banks and all investors realized they could make ton of money from Americans and use it on developing countries to make even more money because a million dollars is collecting dust on an american bank for savings interest rates whereas makes like 10%+ profit in a developing country, but those developing countries are now finding ways to improve themselves instead of heavily relying on us dollars coming in (still uses it a bit but not as a sole solution).

So, surely there will be some downfall in economy again, maybe we are in one right now, but it won't be as bad as 2008.

Well, considering the slots beta release has started (at least that's what I heard, never had the chance to access to beta myself because I don't use their forums) it is getting a lot more possible that end of October will definitely be the release of slots, sure it can be faster if everything goes right but even if some things are found I am sure in 2 weeks time they can fix it so the estimated time of end of October is still valid if you ask me.

However, sportsbook may take longer, I know they are trying to get it into beta as well but sportsbook is not something you can bet all the time like slots, you can play on slots thousands of times in one hour for example, on sports betting you have to bet and then wait for the game to end, which is why it may take longer (or it won't I don't know)
