5621  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 21, 2016, 04:45:14 AM
Gambling is addictive because everyone thinks that it is easy and free money witha small risky. However, it is not zhe case here. Gambling has big risks, and you can not win if you gamble even after you win. You will end up throwing away all your money because you will think that it is possible to win again- but it is not very common to win in streaks.
as every one like to make money in short period of time without much effort. so to them gambling is the ideal way of making money in short period of time but they do not know the fast that it is one of the most risky way of making money also, as the losing chance is gambling is 90% more that winning chances, but people always ignore the fact and they continue making money in gambling.

That is the modern thinking of people today, they are thinking if they will make gambling as their main source of income they can just easily earn good amount of money. And instead of aiming their goal what is happening is they are falling into the deceitful way of gambling. Letting a gambler win first and afterwards losing streak will happen.
The thing is not modern thinking are good for us, maybe for some they can exploit gambling and make money out of it but I am pretty sure majority of gamblers are losers, they keep losing but still they are still coming back in gambling and that is called gambling addiction.

I've been unlucky enough to win as much as 20 rolls in a row from my first time sometimes. If you're unlucky, there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. Just try to play for fun and not for profit. 30 losses in a row are easier to achieve than it might look.
You might wanna correct your statement, winning is not unlucky.

Actually, base on my experience when I feel that I am unlucky and almost all of my bets are not winning then I just simply stop. You cannot really force the moment to be in favor of you as we have a bad day in gambling and we need to understand it.
5623  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many bets do you we need to do in sports betting a day? on: November 19, 2016, 05:07:23 AM
I prefer to have small bets only so I will be able to analyze the games carefully. Admittedly, it's fun to bet all the games on board but in reality it will lessen your chances of winning because what's needed is finding the value of the game and there's only few on the games available.
5624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: November 19, 2016, 04:56:59 AM
One of the best way to make sure that gambling to be profit is that you dont use your own money to gamble. So one way is to gamble with faucet, although it is very little but it can cure those who have the urge to gamble.

But you forgot the main thing to mention is time need to spend to collect those small amounts to a gamble. You need to have a lot of free time that's why maybe it is good to spend to collect those small amounts from faucets to play. But for me time is money and if you utilise that free time properly then you can earn a lot of money online instead of wasting time to collect faucet site coins.
I agree faucets aren't worth our time, it's good for only beginners in gambling/bitcoin. to make good money from faucet you need a captcha solver bot lol.
Good for those who want to practice their method and to enjoy without risk at the same time. Along the way you will get bored and you will realize that you are not making a quality time, there's a lot of things you can enjoy that you will benefit and not only gambling.

Gambling occasionally will minimize your loses while investing in gambling sites is the only way to make it a profitable activity.

Some leads for tonight ordered by confidence
New Orleans -1 @ 2.05
Phoenix suns +8.5 @ 1.9
Dallas +2 @ 1.94

GL

The PHX Suns win the game with the final game scores PHX Suns 116 vs IND Pacers 96.

It was a great game of PHX Suns because Paul George didn't play the game. I don't know why. Haha
Paul George had injury but I guess it was not announce because the line does not move. I regret I was not able to take the Suns Moneyline as well, I played it safe and bet on the point spread because it's too high. I guess there's a problem with the pacers, if they cannot make PG healthy this season they have no chance for playoffs spot.

I bet on NBA again today, I like when there's a lot of odds available but I just notice the UI is so appealing and it's not that fast. Is there any chance to improve it more or it's just my computer which has the problem. Anyway, minor problem, I just want to say that it's my first time to bet on players prob and I'm glad the odds are available here.

5628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are the primary lessons you earn after you gamble? on: November 17, 2016, 11:49:01 AM
I learned from gambling that  if you invested small amount and back out with a huge profit.  Just stop at that moment and enjoy your handsome profit.  OR , If you invested a huge amount in gambling and lost them all. Then also stop playing and don't even think that you can recover your lost money by putting more funds .  If you will do that for recovering,  you are gonna loose those funds too.
Agree with that mate if you lose and you still have btc inside your wallet never look back and bet again let this bad luck to pass you remember theres always tomorrow and maybe it will bring good luck for you. In this way you will able to avoid big loses and limits your bad day.
if you have an intention to gamble just for one bet and walk away then you may can do it , but if you gamble since first time to make money i think this gonna be a hard task , you would keep trying until you realize you have bet all the money you have. bet (no matter lost or won) just walk away with it yeah don't look back, i have learned it too.
One bet cannot be called as "all in" IMO because you will still come back again. If you want "all in" bet, just to do once and quit for good.
5629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: LUCK!!! :) How does it feels? on: November 17, 2016, 11:46:27 AM
You have to be born with it. For real Smiley
I just can't accept it because it's not real. I guess luck is with us because we made enough effort to work our way to win in gambling, and the more we gamble the more we will be able to experience luck. I have luck before winning big bets but in the long run I still return my winnings back.

Maybe just enjoy the moment you are lucky as it does not happen all the time.
5630  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: November 17, 2016, 04:51:53 AM
i like using bitcoin much insted of cash there are plenty of reasons some of them everyone know like milletry grade security and privacy but i like the most is its transparent network , anyone can see anyone's balance or anyone can sew fron where a user recived or sent their bitcoin which are not evwn possible in banks
Bitcoin is really good when it comes in privacy but we can't use bitcoin in everyday lives and needs we can't use that as physical money than cash we can use it for everyday basis and it will work out if we are buying something bitcoin for me is just for trading.

By having bitcoins instead of cash it does not mean that you should keep all your money in bitcoin as that would make you unable to do anything right now because bitcoin is not yet reached every place where we spend money, so it simply means you should keep most of your funds in bitcoin instead of cash and have some money just for your expenditures until bitcoin does not reach mainstream.
It could be the right perception since we are in the crypto, by putting some of our money in bitcoin it shows that we are supporting bitcoin in any way and as a user we have to be optimistic that the future will bring good news to our investment. In my understand, it merely say about investment our money in bitcoin than just putting it solely in the bank.

I like what i am seeing today, the Memphis are competing really well with the clippers. They are leading big now, I guess the Clippers might lose this game and the sweet Memphis moneyline will hit. Good luck guys, game are not done yet but it's good to celebrate early especially when you take the plus points.
5632  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way to manage money? on: November 17, 2016, 04:05:52 AM
If you don't have a budget sheet that you're using yet, then you should get one and get it working. It will help immensely for a majority of the expenses that you would consider and have in your daily life, and definitely helps when it comes to saving money. All you have to do is make sure that your incoming funds don't exceed your budget, and then you can manage your money effectively. Learn from google if you're unsure about a lot of it.
That's true, everything should be in written so it would be easy for you to monitor your expenses and your income. If you have a fixed income then it's easy to monitor but when your expenses is not fixed then a budget plan is really necessary, you do not want to end up borrowing money because you are deficit.
5633  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: November 17, 2016, 03:49:13 AM
I would ask for a loan if it was a really urgent emergency for me. After that, I would've made a safety fund that's only wihdrawable for emergencies and only that. Not having money when you most need it is a horrible situation, so having a safety fund saves you from that.
Thats  why we should  really have saved funds  in able  not to  have  problems  when emergency comes  unexpectedly,  i agree that  its   a  horrible  situation  when  you do  need  money at  most   but  your  bank or saving  is  not  enough or dont have totally. Making some  loan  would be the last resort.

Yes, I have your security fund is very user-friendly. But it so happens that this fund is difficult to collect. Then you have to borrow money at a bank or at a friend

This is my one option if the bank will not allow me to borrow money to their fund. Then two options left borrowing with my friends or parents and use my saved funds. But I don't really want to use my saved funds for it is used for some specific allocation. And if there are new desperation for money then I will just ask my mom for it.
You are still lucky you have a savings fund, I guess desperation of money is not your problem. The only situation that I consider that you are in desperate need of money is when you do not have something that you own, with that it will lead you to sell any property you have just to have the money and could possibly borrow money as you said.

It's tough under the situation my friend, I have experience that many times in my younger age so I learned a lot from it.

Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't my problem to be desperate in money. And that is the things that I will just do if I am really in need of money. Just like if all my money was spent well and still I need to cover up some expenses like paying my rental rooms and other utility bills, then I will just explain it to my mom.
Apparently out expenses in life are not fixed because everyday the world changes, therefore we also have the responsibility to make ways to increase our income and that is by making our source of income may it be a job or venturing into business.

Even how comfortable we are now, time will come that one day we will be in desperate need of money but forecasting the possible future event would ensure as safe, hence right now we have to start saving.
5634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: November 17, 2016, 03:31:51 AM
To play gambling in a smart way just remember do not bet all your money in one bet because if that bet lose then you will not have a chance to recover that loss. So bet wise and do not be greedy you should control yourself when to stop. Most people just keep betting even they are winning already and they will end up losing after the end of the day.
In simply word you need a bankroll management , not a yolo bet right?
Set your daily winning and losing limit if you are a regular gambler.
That is the smartest action you can do in gambling , but i dont think people agree with this opinion as a lot of people think that gambling itself is not a smart action.
The first thing you have to determine is why you are gambling, if you gamble for fun then you make sure you will enjoy the time you allotted in your gambling session, the longer you gamble the more you are entertain, however if it's for the money going all in or yolo is good if you are confident with your bets.
i guess the longer you gamble the more chance you get addicted and not having fun anymore.
gambling can make us entertained in short period only.
so the best thing you can do is to gamble occassionally only to avoid an addiction and another bad things after .
You are prone of getting addicted therefore the self discipline is vital as it will let you control yourself in gambling, having fun is good but by basic definition of fun which is to spend and enjoy does not mean you have to do it regularly, it should be on occasional basis.
5635  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans too risky? on: November 17, 2016, 03:20:46 AM
Yes, I also think that giving out loans is too risky. Some people will never bother paying you most especially if there's no collateral involved. Other people are willing to ruin their name for just a couple of dollars. If you're going to try making money out of giving out loans, I wouldn't recommend doing it. There's a lot of scammers here on the Internet.


Yes, Many people think that getting a loan and forget to pay about it was pretty fine since the company the lend money don't know them personally. i am working on a company that lends money to those small micro entrepreneur but before they get a loan, they need to undergo on some procedure, although the company already have the background investigation of the borrower, it is still risky because there's a lot of swindler people in the world. they will do everything just to get a loan.
That's the big difference in online and in the physical world, lending here it too risky as people are anonymous, good thing you are in a company who helps poor people, I believe micro loans focus to micro entrepreneurs who would like to get additional capital to grow their business.

Moreover, it's less risky in real world compared in online world when we talk of lending money.
5636  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: November 16, 2016, 09:00:40 AM
Just want know how much the gamblers who use analysis when play gambling and what kinds of gambling game? And do you think it is needed or not making analysis on gambling game or it is depend on lucky. Thanks for share your opinions and experience.

if you call what i do analysis then yes i use it for all the games that i play.

and what i do is that i try to come up with a strategy in all the games that i play by "analyzing" the history that i had and trying to come up with the best way of having a better chance on succeeding. and this goes for all the games.

but for some specific kind of games like sports betting then it requires some more analysis since the type of the game is different.
The fact that we are coming back in gambling we definitely analyze it every time our gambling session is that, with analyzing our bets we learn from mistakes and we make improvement on it so the next time we gamble we can have more chance of winning. In reality although we lose most of the time but still we are not tired in analyzing games especially in sports betting.
5637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling Investments on: November 16, 2016, 08:56:08 AM
So I just withdraw my Betking investment after 35 days because I don't have enough btc and I want to participate on the coming Wings DAO ICO. I will invest back again soon. It's funny though as I thought what's written in the "my profit" is the amount I gained. So I guess it's just the highest profit I reached before and when I invest again and reach the same roi I won't be charged with a commission.

So for my 35 days Crypto-Games is at 6.28% and Betking at 4.20%. My 27 days old Monero investment in Crypto-Games is at 15.60%. I heard someone that Safedice's Monero investments are getting higher than what I get. Would be nice to hear from other people.  Grin Grin  

Profit is the profit from player losses (minus wins) before commission (wagered and weekly)



Thanks for the clarification. Good luck with the sale and hopefully some dedicated rich guy/group will assume it.

Meanwhile Crypto-Games announced that they will cut from 80% to 70% share on the house edge starting December 1. Seems lie they working for something big? I don't mind it though for as long as I can see a better Crypto-Games soon.

Anybody here tried investing other altcoins on these top casinos?   
That's a management decision and we are just investors here, we comply with the rules but what is important here is a site is profitable and we are sharing on the profits. There are a lot of sites really that will accept altcoins as investment but as a real investor it's your job to look for it and conduct a deep investigation.
5638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: November 16, 2016, 08:48:54 AM
The best way to stop is to lose a big a mount. Once you are exposed to big losses, you will think again before gambling stupid amounts of money, you will start gambling less and less, less often and for less money, to the point that you end up not gambling at all because you see how stupid it is to keep losing money. After a time, you will come back but you will have control over it, and will treat it as fun and nothing else.
Well, i can say that it does works. because i've been through it and i gamble a lot less now. i'm afraid to gamble big and i don't go after my losses anymore. Smiley
It is really very rare to see people are staying away from gambling and its problem. But you have done it congratulations. As you are doing, we need not to quit gambling completely but in order to avoid gambling problems we must gamble very rarely.
Gambling with the very less amount and going for it occasionally will guarantee lesser to no gambling problems.
We have to carefully evaluate ourselves if we are really not good in gambling, it's our attitude actually which is the problem why we do not succeed, if we have that discipline needed in gambling then we will really enjoy it. Just think that it's for fun and nothing more, otherwise you will still gonna suffer the consequences of being a big risk taker.

Other could be profitable in gambling but that would not mean we will also do the same.
5639  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 16, 2016, 08:31:33 AM
I will suggest you for investing because Bitcoin prices started to recover, but if you want a high risk you can try to gamble,You can get money very fast but also very risky to lose all your money.


There's no need to worry even the price will fall because it will still comes back strong, remember that bitcoin is a strong currency and we are getting bigger and popular. My advise also, is while you are waiting for the price to increase, you might wanna consider putting your money in gambling sites bankroll.
5640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: November 16, 2016, 08:21:16 AM
I think , No. Because,  there are many stories in which many rich people get vanished ( poor ) with their gambling addiction. I will gamble but for fun only.  I will not make it my addiction. Better than this, I will plan to make more profit by doing any stable business .
Good thing you have that kind of mindset, being rich is a privilege so we should take care of our status as gambling can take that from us if we are not doing it well in gambling. To gamble is just fine since we are rich and we have the right to enjoy but always put a limit and you shall be fine.
Yes maybe if I was rich I would also gamble but the limit and not too often to gamble. I do not want to gamble without control because I do

not want to be poor because it is not have control in the betting at gambling. Gamble for fun and have a limit in the betting it will not affect

our riches.
Rich or poor we need to have control in gambling, we all need money though our satisfaction differs when it comes to money because rich and poor have different lifestyle. Now, if rich and poor both see gambling as a form of entertainment then probably there would be no problem that will be experience in the future as both are betting the amount of money they can only afford.
