You will have this feeling of recovering everything you ve lost in gambling when you are lucky to win a big amount of money, either big or small never ever leave your wins on a gambling casino, because you are on the road to losing everything back to the casino, always take your profits out once you win some money, make sure you leave behind that exact amount you prefer to keep using to gamble and stay in your risk / reward ratio boundaries.

At my earlier stage of gambling I have made some lucky gains and I don't feel appreciated because I've lost some money before making the new win, if id know I would have move the money out first and keep using small amount to try my luck again, I was reckless andbo lost everything back.

Throughout that week I don't win anything again, it was one loss after the other, like I was cursed with that one win I had, and I blew it all up, but now I have learnt my lessons, your win could be the last you will see for that month, secure them and keep using the same amount you can afford to lose and continue your adventure.

 I think this person did the right thing because if the money the one is very big it could make his dear friends to betray him, I believe the gambler is just scared for his life, there are too many betrayers happening now, and you can't even trust anyone when it's about money, the one you don't even expect to betray you will do it.

 It is also possible that this Gambler is a very stingy man maybe he get away from his friend to avoid giving them some part of the money there are some people who are like this they are hiding their real self because they don't have money and once they get access to some money that is where they will start avoiding people who was with them right from the beginning when they are nobody but all in all I don't want to judge this Gambler because it is unclear what really happened why they decide to make such decision.

 There are some people who keep some friends just because they don't want to be alone and there are some people who keep friends because those friends are genuinely good friend to them so let's not judge anybody you can be in the same position where has the friends you keep you cannot be trusted and there is a part in you that believe that you can't trust them so once you eat a money and they're aware that you eat that money you won't want to stay around such friends since you never trust them right from the beginning so I believe this story looks something like this but I'm not really sure.

Whatever the case might be, there is something we can learn from this story, do not trust people that you never trusted right from day one when you have access to some valuable things or money, they can be the end of you, and do not betray your good friend simply because you are now richer than they are.

If every small little money is enough for you then you have no problem with gambling, forget strategies and others, what you really need is taking the lowest risk with gambling, do not try to win any big amount from gambling because this will also increase your risk potential too, a win is a win for me as I am always content with what I get, I don't have to win thousands of dollars because gambling isn't an investment.

My advice is always expect less from gambling, you will always make the right decision with money management, use only what you are willing to lose and do not get greedy.

Some people prefer placing bets on many games at once and one of those games will ruin their chance of winning, such gamblers are greedy gamblers because they do this to earn big amount of money with small amount of money, what is wrong with using fifty dollars to win $150? Too small?? If yes you are a greedy person.

When you and your partner are both on the same boat nothing can stand in your way, every wins and falls will count and you guys will keep getting better at everything, I wish you guys happiness in your marriage, and this is the way it's suppose to be, it's not good when husband is into something good for the financial future and the wife isn't on it, I personally don't like this idea unless it's gambling-related, but when it comes to investment both partners should be in the same boat.

If you believe in something do not go on the journey alone if you are married, some people suffered after they lose their partners because of this mistake, imagine leaving your hardware wallet behind for your wife or husband and they can't operate it, even if they have to find someone to do it for them, they can easily get ripped off or scam.

This is also why it's wise to choose your partner wisely, make sure they are smart and always willing to learn something new, if you are the type that always feels like no knowledge is too much you will always be a step ahead of people who don't always want to learn something new.

I don't use my signature earnings for gambling, I am getting paid in Bitcoin and I always move the payments to my cold storage for long-term holding, using such money to gamble is not a good idea.

The Fiat displayed is better, even if all I have on the account is USDT or Bitcoin, but when it comes to which currency is favourable for me to use for gambling I will always pick crypto.

Sports bet, I don't use to like it but a friend advised me to move closer to football fans and to also watch some football matches, that's where I started to like football out of all other sports games. Still, I like Slots too because of it's simplicity and less time consuming.

I  don't want I have a specific Casino is my favourite casino I have open account on up to five different casinos online hand I don't have a specific casino that I use most times I just pick one and make my deposit on the casino to try my luck for the week I have accounts on fortunejack I also have account on stake.com and I also to use Roll bit casino too.

I am a responsible gambler because I am far from gambling addiction, it is not very important to me to gamble I only gamble when I feel like gambling unlike people who always feel the urge to gamble everyday I don't see myself doing the same thing, I am very cautious with gambling and I know that losing my money is more possible than winning some money, this is why I am not too into gambling.
666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don’t push playing more on: October 16, 2023, 09:14:41 AM
You are gradually getting addicted with gambling, I recommend you to take some weeks off gambling, find something that can make you money that isn't gambling related and work on that, oy people who don't have a good source of income rely so much on gambling almost everyday and mind you, how many gamblers around you have you seen that becomes a great person financially through gambling? The exact question that people should be asking themselves.

Why is that? Because gambling is all about luck and not many people will be proud of their gambling journey, this is why it's wiser to gamble only when you can afford the money, and also make sure you use the lowest money to gamble because the surest thing waiting to happen is you losing the money.

It's common sense to understand that gambling will make you lose money than your will win, so it's not a good path to start chasing some kind of result, the chances you have is too slim, instead find something more reliable to invest on, start a business and grow that up, focus on it instead of dreaming that you get rich with gambling.
667  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Give Bitcoin investment time on: October 16, 2023, 08:21:15 AM
It's not Bitcoin only, when people run their own business they have the mind of leading a good life with the business and when things aren't working out like they planned they will quit, I am a fashion designer and it's been 8 good year's that have been running my business now, there are some who started the same business as me at the time, now they closed down the business because of the country situations, but I don't because I believe I can keep the business alive and still do other things, I have customers from other countries including the U.S and U.K, crypto made me found them, it was a long story.

When you are running a business you don't have to see the business as the only way to bring food ro your table, be open to other ideas and you will grow better from there, back to Bitcoin discussion, it's true that Bitcoin investors want quick returns and they easily get tired of holding their Bitcoin but I believe that's because of fear in them, they don't understand Bitcoin but that doesn't stop them from been a part of Bitcoin.

They believe Bitcoin is more risky than their jobs, I think it's because they have no complete trust in Bitcoin, if not, they would prefer to hold for a very long time, I have a big sister who is also acting the same way, when I questioned her about Bitcoin investment I detect that she feels unsafe with Bitcoin.

Shut down in what way OP? If the internet is down in your country it will never be the same in the next country close to yours on the map, and if you find yourself in a country that bans the internet for example just get a Starlink or esim, the world is now more advanced than believing someone can rob you of your access to the internet,  it can never work as there are good ways to stay connected, do your own research.

Unless some kind of massive wave comes into the world taking with it all the electricity in the world, powerful enough to shut down the satellites in the space too, and that would be interesting, with it? Of cos not, but this happens only in Hollywood movies, there are other things you should focus on right now OP, but this isn't one of should not be one of them.

The whole human civilization needs to collapse for the whole world to be without the internet and electricity, that's not on we humans to decide, that's the creator's business and I pray no such thing will happen, not in my own time if it's meant to happen lol.
669  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Drake's Curse. on: October 16, 2023, 06:32:38 AM
I don't see reason to feel sorry for him, he is a big man and I bet that amount is something he can afford to lose so why the sorry? There are past bets where he won, isn't it? So it's expected to lose in gambling, and I like this sport because you can easily predict who the winner will be, but you ain't going to be lucky all the time, this is also why placing bets with what you can afford to lose is important, let's just think for a sec if Drake uses 80% of his whole net worth to place this bet because he was so sure that his man will win and he lost, that means he is going broke.

Gambling should be placed with sense, even if you are so sure what the result would be there is a small chance that you will be wrong, are you willing to put all your money at risk on such a thing? Things won't always go the way we want it that's why you need to calculate on both sides, everything that looks like a good advantage always has a disadvantage too.

OP I think you should erase the Curse thing off this topic, I thought it was something more serious but this rapper isn't cursed in any way, some gamblers on here have lost rounds of the game more than Drake though the money might not be as huge as what drake used to place a bet but losing in gambling isn't curse, it is the way gambling is, losing is normal when you gamble.

The mind is a very powerful and once it find it hard to let go of something it will forever be a magnet to that desire, I don't believe that any form of therapy will work on gambler who hasn't made up his own mind to give up on gambling, therapy can divert their attention on something else for the time being but it's not going to fix the problem completely because the mind still won't let go.

A gambler who Realize that he is an addicted gambler makes it easier to take control of himself from the habit before it's too late and this can't be put side by side with a gambler who never thinks that he is doing something wrong, even if their loved ones start telling them they are always ready to go against their loved ones.

Not until their journey turns out to be like that of the Prodigal Son in the Bible, they will now come back and admit they were wrong all this while, if you know what gambling is turning people into you will have some fear in you.

The victim should be happy that the worst the worker can do was to run away with the money which I believe can be resolved if the victim takes the right approach by using the law, that runaway criminal will be found and the money will be recovered from him.

I actually don't get involved with gambling, not until it's accessible via the internet, because there are many stories happening in my country where a lucky gambler will win life changing money in a casino and criminals will visit them at home, they are either killed for the money after taking everything from them or they just take the money.

This is why I said this victim is lucky, the casino worker choose to use this stupid way to run away with the gamblers money and he doing so turned him into a wanted criminal, if the victim go straight to a police station they will start investigating the matter, there is always someone who knows these casino workers and how they can find them.

So how is anyone going to know if someone living next to them could commit suicide because of crypto investment? This is stupid, are you going to keep tab on every living beings in the world I don't get it, we should be talking about risk management, anything can go to zero in crypto space and even in the world off the internet.

People who take their own life because they lose money used money that they aren't ready to lose, it's either they are greedy or they just don't have the risk management knowledge, what could possibly go wrong if you use a certain amount of your total income to take risks of crypto assets?

I use 10% of my income to invest and even if I use more I am always ready for the worst, this is me, this is how I do my things and I am ready to start from the beginning again, I was trained this way, I am a risk taker by blood, but I will never take my own life because of money, it's not the end of skills that we can learn and earn with, many people have rise and fall and they still get up again, it's pointless to take your life because of money.
673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play equal to deposited funds before you can withdraw on: October 15, 2023, 07:00:34 AM
Always deposit the exact amount you are ready to use for gambling, how is playing equal to deposited funds before withdrawing a BS? I don't think so, you are only thinking for yourself and it's fine but what about you been the casino owner? You would have love this rules before withdrawing, or won't you?

It is the same claim by gamblers who wants to rob casinos by taking their offers and bonuses and withdrawing instantly, if this is allowed why won't other gamblers abuse it? You will see loads of multiple accounts making deposits on the casino to get bonuses and click on the withdraw in an instant.

The only time where this should be normal is after you win for real, deposit money on the casino and do some gambling and if you get lucky and win some money you will be able to withdraw normally, if you running a casino you will know why some things are necessary, for the business to flourish and for the business to also not turn into a illegal platform.
674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do you not gamble on women sports? (tennis not included) on: October 14, 2023, 08:02:47 AM
I've never placed any bet on women's sports before because I don't see anything attracting me to such sports, also men sports are far more crowdy than women's sports, I want to blow your mind, I have a couple of female friends in school years back before we lose contact, who likes soccer and they all prefer to watch men's sports, arsenal football club and Manchester United, and they are female.

I think it's more exciting to watch men's sport, that's where the real fun is at, also as a gambler I doubt you will find more data on women's sports compared to men's sports, still all these depends on someone's interest but I am just trying to prove that more women are into male sports too.

It's only when it's time to back your country sport is when you will see people supporting women, for example, the women's World Cup, and that's it, the interest will die off right after, most people just have high interest in men's sports.
675  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbie Don't be afraid of buying Bitcoin on: October 14, 2023, 07:11:44 AM
There will be fear when you don't understand what you are trying to invest your hard earned money on, these will be fear if you aren't ready to lose the money you are about to invest in Bitcoin, I don't blame those beginners who are in fear, they might understand what Bitcoin is but not in a good shape to invest in Bitcoin, Bitcoin is great but choose to invest while you can, some people are ready to take the risks while some aren't ready, this is normal.

If you are not ready do not force yourself, just because someone sold his car or house to buy Bitcoin doesn't mean you should do the same, measure the risk you can take before taking the step because there are still risks involved in Bitcoin investment.

I risked it all to get to where I am today, both money and time but I won't advise anyone to do the same unless you are prepared for the losses, first try to understand yourself, do not walk in others' shadows, get a job if you want to invest money in risky assets the easy way, think about how you will survive during this bear market and still be able to invest without hurting yourself.

This Filipina did not even expect she won the grand prize on lottery instead she thought of winning just consolation prizes. Lucky for her she had that financial stability for 25 years as $6,670+ a month here in the Philippines is pretty huge.

https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/pinoyabroad/content/882861/pinay-wins-over-p387-000-a-month-for-25-years-in-emirates-draw/story/

I am not lucky in lottery or any gambling casinos but way back in 2017 the only luck I encountered was I gambled with the risk of joining bounty hunting on this forum and it is worth it.

How about you guys, are you having a good fortune on your gambling career? Do you ever think of quitting after you won a jackpot?
Same thing I've been trying to tell others on here, you win a lot of money when you don't expect it, she has a calm mind and she is doing this with a responsible strategy, she just gambles for fun sake and expects little result back, so here are are, the spirit of not expecting too much is far better when it comes to trying your luck, if nothing works out you never expected anything much anyways, isn't this is how gambling was supposed to be?

I always gamble mostly twice in a week and I am always fine with x3 of my risk money, and most times I have lost my money but i don't feel like I've lost a lot because some times I use $20 to try my luck, and some times I use $30, it varies between this range and this is what I can afford to lose for the week, I don't put my mind on winning, and some times I win.

Some while ago I stopped gambling because I don't get the extra money for gamble, its not a career anyway so I moved away until I can afford taking risks again, honestly, gambling should be just an activity that's why you don't have to engage in it every time.
677  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: October 14, 2023, 05:54:48 AM
It's not advisable, those who got rich by gambling never expected it, and that's because they rely on luck, those who expect too much from gambling are the ones who always lose their mentality and get addicted. When you expect less from gambling you will be able to use the right strategy because you still have your mind.

All it takes to be a good gambler is to learn the fundamentals of a particular game like poker or sports then stay with that and get better at it, it's advisable to build a bankroll through responsible nabd strategic gambling, do not, I repeat, do not use more than you can afford to lose.

With gambling it never ends, once it becomes a part of you it will be hard to let go, so make sure that you get used to responsible gambling, be prepared to get disciplined, and also maintain a strong mindset, because when you start seeing loses you can decide to break your boundary and start doing stupid things.

I won't advise anyone to build a career in gambling, only very few numbers of people become one and never lose their minds.

It's fine if they lose money in trading, at least they will gain something after losing money, it only sucks if you lose money and you learn nothing in return, we have discussed this a few times a year only, and many still won't care about your advice, all your points are going to be forever inevitable, emotions can't be beaten for many people so how will they control themselves?

Prices like this are what you pay when you decide to take steps into something you don't know much about, you should have seen it coming but people don't listen to advice until they make mistakes, I have stopped advising people about trading specifically because they think you some want them to be prosperous.

Trading is better for those who can control their emotions and also for those who want to learn everything about trading and still be able to spend much cash on a few trading tools, you can make trading a better experience for yourself if you get the right setup and tools, find the best gurus and learn from them.
679  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will the Gambling Sportybet (Company) Refund the Money? on: October 11, 2023, 09:11:37 AM
The company is going to be happy about this one, because they have an escape, since the gambler is underage that's their new excuse not to pay up the money, this is the play of most online gambling platforms and even the offline ones, they don't just pay the money if it's a very large sum, they will take their time and see if you break any rules on the platform, I am sure that they will never pay this boy, and they reason is obviously there.

The case of this young boy is different, he doesn't win any large sum I guess and he is also underage, this will be a good lesson for him because it's not good for any underage to expose themselves into gambling, it can ruin them pretty faster, but let's just imagine that this boy won millions of dollars with his school fees, do you think he will get paid? Even if his parent knew about it there is nothing they can do to get the money out, the boy is underage is going to be the excuse anyway.

I think the boy will be in trouble with the parent because now they will have to know that their child hasn't pay up his school fees, I hope it get traced by to his gambling activities, I do hope well for this kid that's why his parents must know what he really uses the money for.
680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever heard about financing a gambler? on: October 11, 2023, 08:17:12 AM
Gambling isn't a business, you can't finance anything but the gambler pocket itself, if anyone walks up to you and tries to talk you into financing them run away because they just want to take advantage of you, that money is going to be used by them for another thing entirely and they will later tell you that they lose it all.

If they see another opportunity in you, they will try telling you that it's just the way gambling is, and maybe you will win the next time, if you can give them another money, it's a total rip-off, do not fall for such a stupid trick.

People who lack knowledge can easily fall for this, especially if they are illiterate and they are in a very hard position in life, they might want to give it a try until they realize that they are been taken advantage of because they are weak, this is happening, that's why you will see people signing the agreement without reading and they end up having to pay a debt that they never know anything about.
