This is entirely a new platform. Also, it hasn't got much users till date. Usage of deep onion alone for gambling will never attract large users towards gambling. The website interface looks good, but it has got errors while using on the mobile. Some files weren't getting loaded completely.

Easily one gets addicted to gambling, because the winning one has experienced through gambling will let the user stay active into gambling. One cannot get winning results all the time, periodically loss happens, and the user will keep himself engaged into recovering the loss. This is the beginning of an user getting addicted, very few understand the reality of losses happening with gambling and try to get out of the same.

Right now there is a big difference between the odds for India and Australia. At present the odd for India is found above 5, while it is found less than 1.2 for Australia. I believe this match will go so close at the end, also taking the test series win we cannot conclude it will be winning for India, but it has lot of chances if the middle order batsman give a strong support in scoring.
5984  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do people but bigger bets in sports compared to other type of gambling? on: January 12, 2019, 04:59:09 AM
With sports betting it looks like an easy task to predict the game result. With such a mentality even when the odds were low, with the hope of earning big users spend big amount on sports betting. With gambling none is sure of the result and when scenario change the loss experienced will be much higher than playing with small funds.
5985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: First fully-licensed and provably fair online casino - EOSBet on: January 11, 2019, 11:59:17 PM
This looks similar to that of the common gambling website. EOS being one among the blockchain platform which has been gaining popularity might have got used in the website for much faster access, also security enhanced services were much described. This can be a varied experience from the common form of gambling. Rather than partnering with different wallet networks it is good to develop a program by which we can send and receive receive into our own wallet.
5986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The longer you play poker the better you become ? on: January 11, 2019, 10:46:05 PM
With poker being played in gambling houses directly the skills and the strategy of handling will keep on increasing as long as we play. At the same time with online poker it isn't that easy, because our strategy needs to coincide with the program script. This has very small possibility even when you play for a much longer time period. To my opinion coincidence might be around 20%, while the winning possibilities were around 60-80% in long run.
5987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did the use of online gambling increase with crypto moneys? on: January 11, 2019, 04:27:19 PM
Gambling is a big industry, but this wasn't much known to the outer world. Because, in the past gambling was termed to be the use case for the richest. Later slowly people started to explore and further it became common when small funds too is enough for gambling. Earlier gambling supported the growth of bitcoin with the increased circulation. By that time bitcoin was not much known to the people.
5988  Economy / Economics / Re: A cryptocurrency with volatility can't be used as money on: January 11, 2019, 03:45:44 PM
don't never dream of replacing fiat with crypto as a payment currency.
very unlikely, even if the fiat currency will be replaced, it looks like gold is more suitable as a payment currency, a currency that will never experience inflation.
indeed fiat cannot be replaced by bitcoin at this time, but gold is also difficult to replace fiat. even if that happens, of course it's been a long time ago, because we know gold is a valuable asset that has been recognized starting from the kingdom era
Well said, but people love the volatility. Because, whenever there is a price variation what he gets as pay in terms of usd or in terms of local currency varies. Even with the stable pricing it isn't possible to replace fiat. Right now bitcoin has reached such a big market just because it has got volatility a major feature. If cryptocurrencies have got stable price, this could have never been this popular.
5989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is playing casino games online a good idea? on: January 11, 2019, 03:21:56 PM
Very few gamblers now are actually gambling for fun. I can say that I'm gambling for fun and spends few satoshi's that I want but there are times that I'm losing my control and just crave to gamble for bigger amount.

Playing/gambling online can be the cure to those people that are going through a depression and anxiety. It's a good idea for them but if not moderated, monitored and controlled it will result to a very bad ending.

Gambling helps a lot if someone feels depressed or lonely. Indeed, measures need to be taken in order to avoid bad results that may end up in a worse situation than depression. From my personal experience, I just play small portions in my bets in order to have a longer period of playing gambling games and having fun and I take over my difficult situations.
Yes it can help you to recover from your depression but playing too much wont help you at all, you must still control yourself. If you find playing online is more safe and convenient to you then I think its ok to play as long as you are with the trusted gambling sites, but still people go to casinos to feel the intensity of every gambler around you.
I do not feel that gambling will help someone overcome loneliness and boredom, what I see is gambling only pushing such people into the depths of despair, so I do not encourage anyone who is lonely to participate in gambling, their situation can only be worse, it will not recover as you say. Talking about online casinos, it is truly a very convenient and safe entertainment place when we do not need to fear the attack from the police but in return, our winning rate is very low when everything programmed in online casinos is to eliminate our luck and victory, even addictive when we are too easy to participate
What's been said is true, but this isn't the fact with each and every user. It changes based on the strategy the user has developed. There are successful people who earned big spending on gambling while they felt lonely. From my experience I feel spending in gambling when I was alone. This will let me take right decision, and online gambling gives access to play whenever I feel comfortable and has got the funds rather than scheduling to travel for a casino and spend. Using online I go anonymous which many of the users feel good.
5990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: On what kind of gambling you got maximum reward from betting? on: January 11, 2019, 05:34:55 AM
Sports betting is the much preferred than casinos and other form of poker and slot games. Among all the sports betting I feel comfortable with tennis and cricket. The maximum return of mine happened with tennis games, because matches used to have higher odds and if lucky will get good return on it. The maximum reward worth is around $200.
5991  Economy / Economics / Re: What do you think about crypto currency issued by the government? on: January 11, 2019, 04:11:46 AM
When a governing body takes responsibility, surely it'll be functional same as the centralized services. We cannot see anything good similar to bitcoin. To my thinking it is same as the way of making transaction digitally for the traditional fiat. If the same cryptocurrency is developed in a separate platform with some other backing as oil, metals, etc then it'll surely make a difference though it is under a centralized system.
5992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much capital I need to be the House on: January 11, 2019, 03:37:54 AM
In the Op he has mentioned that it doesn't require much efforts. In reality this is not the real fact, it requires a perfect learning about the industry. Importantly there are people who just copy the script and tries to make a gambling website with some amount as capital for the house. To make a gambling website successful one needs to focus on lot of things starting from the analyzing the game which interests people into gambling. Allocation of capital fund for the house comes in the later stage of development.
5993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Share your favourite gambling site and story behind it on: January 10, 2019, 05:13:33 PM
I'm ever play on directbet where I bet on final and won 0.07 by betting on draw to the odds.
I like gamble on directbet because it's instant process and there is no registration process so everything went smooth.

I just realize that directbet already close their operation
It's been a long time favourite for most of the gamblers who prefer using cryptocurrencies for gambling. User finds it easy to make a bet much easier than many other gambling websites. Another advantage with directbet is that our balance will be in our own wallet and can be send directly. Till date we haven't got any such gambling website with similar access.
5994  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin To Drop As Low As $1000 This Year on: January 10, 2019, 06:13:45 AM
The thread was created last year, when this thread was created last year the price of bitcoin was above $12000. The price has been found falling from the peak price. Upon this the thread might have been created stating that the price will fall as low as $1000. To the prediction price hasn't reached low, but it has fallen suddenly reaching the present value. Hope this will recover as the earliest.
5995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you remember your first sports bet? on: January 09, 2019, 03:51:54 PM
The first betting of mine using bitcoin happened years back. The first bet I placed was on a tennis match. For that match I spend $5 worth of bitcoin. I won in that event and got my winning amount credited soon after the match got over. During those days directbet.eu was the most popular gambling website for Cryptocurrency.
5996  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Crypto A Way To become Rich / Millionaire ? on: January 09, 2019, 12:42:35 PM
Years back this was an industry through which one can easily become rich. By that time this was not much known by the common people, now when more people have known better about it, the earning opportunities were found less. Also to earn big, large scale investment is required. Upon this now rich people getting richer investing on cryptocurrencies.
5997  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Earning Bitcoin is good, but don't depent on it. on: January 09, 2019, 09:00:22 AM
Well said, earning bitcoin isn't that easy nowadays. The major earning of bitcoin is possible through trading and gambling. Both were high risk involved, depending into this primarily for earning is not the right pick. If something goes out of prediction, it will get reacted on our regular living. To avoid such circumstances it is good to have a regular job and have bitcoin earning aside for making ourselves wealthy at the earliest.
5998  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you still continue? on: January 09, 2019, 07:29:04 AM
Nope. Even though I am not an expert gambling or gambling addict, I will stop for a while and withdraw the rest of small amount from defeat in gambling. But when I was sure to gamble again, then I couldn't stop myself from gambling again.
Its not important if you are an expert in gambling or not. As long as you have money to gamble then you are good to go. I think you must know how to control yourself especially when the times comes that you are losing your money.

That is not the best advice to continue, there is a joke which is as follows and explains everything.

There was a king and had a son, the son started spending money on alcohol, the king said no problem, the son started going with whores, the king said no problem, the son started gambling, the king said oh no he will ruin my empire.
Well said, that's the reality when one doesn't have the limits infront of him. But, when an user has got his own limits on funds for gambling surely this won't ruin the empire or an individuals living. If I were there in such a situation, I'll give a break for gambling and analyze where I made the mistake. This will surely let me improve myself in gambling. Further will spend a small amount and secure a half so that I can reach at least half the distance I need to travel.
5999  Economy / Economics / Re: Will people come back to gold on: January 09, 2019, 06:53:34 AM
Recently gold price has peaked high, and the same has made the market of gold grow high. When the price of bitcoin grew people from gold moved to cryptocurrencies. Soon after that people moved back to gold as it serves as a trusted investment and as an easy accessible asset that has got usage all around and accepted worldwide. As it looks like a bullish market the inflow of fiat from gold will continue supporting the growth of cryptocurrency market.
6000  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ethereum prices start pumping. on: January 09, 2019, 05:40:33 AM
Ethereum has got the perfect team that will not let it down. What ethereum faced in the past reaching less than $100 is unexpected. By that time the entire market crashed. When ethereum market began to retain the price automatically each and every altcoin experienced a forward price pumping. This is all because of the dependence and the effective functioning of the smart contract platform of ethereum which stands high even when there are more different blockchain platforms existing regularly.
