6661  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you save money while playing gambling games? on: September 04, 2017, 02:35:25 PM
this is something that you should work on yourself , cause no one can help you with that
but maybe creating a paper wallet and sending your savings directly to it may help , at least that's what I do to ensure that I won't spend my savings on gambling or any other product


The most effective way is to quit in an instant when you already make some profits, then try again another day, because if you are going to continue gambling after you winnings, the house might detect it and the house will take it all back. If you know that you should quit because you are losing in a row, then quit, competing against the house is no good.

Yeah. Gambling and saving doesn't really go with each other and it actually contradicts each other's essence. You can't think of saving while gambling so you have to drop either of the two. If you're wise, you'll drop gambling
6662  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you know game like pusoy or tongits? on: September 04, 2017, 02:31:22 PM
I know this kind of games because this is my favorites games card since i was young i already played this before. Pusoy or tong its is also most popular games of most Filipinos in the Philippines. It needs skills and strategy so that you can hits and you will win.
yeah, we have that here in philippines but i do not play it too much, i think that gambling is usually play in the wake of dead, usually play in night till in the midnight, many people here playing that game and i think they are enjoying playing it too, thats why i have been try it with a little amount of bet and then i lose that great and cool.

That's quite morbid there dude with this game being played during wakes. I find it really interesting though. I think this game should be given more attention internationally and have it's own application where players can play with each other rather than a.i

I played poker rounds in betcoin.ag using some free token and credits and it's a pretty good experience. I agree that with bitcoin, the entire gambling industry will be under a revolution that will make people look differently at online gambling.
6664  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you like slot games ? on: September 04, 2017, 02:20:56 PM
   I do not like slot machines, you just press button and slot make some spins and stop, so where is the fun? Some slots are so colorful that I feel dizziness after looking at it for more then a minute.
That is not good for your mind, slot machines, you do not use your brain cells in quality way, you just press and press button for more spins. I can not imagine what kind of strategy you can apply
on slot machines?
   There are much better gambling games, where you actually use your brain and you need to have skills if you wish to win. I respect everyone`s choices, I just expressed my opinion about slots.
You are right the slot games are not more entertaining after playing few minutes we will get bored. But many players will like this game. Why because it is easy to play and if we have the luck we can make a big profit in just a few minutes. It is just spin and stops game but some people will enjoy this method, and they like to play this type of games. I will play slot games very rarely.

Slot games are really based on pure luck - if we are after profit, we rarely get it with slot games because of the house edge and there is no way for us to really input some skills on the game. Although we can setup some betting percentage and all that, it is still not enough and the odds will always be against us. Better play it just for fun and entertainment with no intention of profiting.

I don't think anyone who's playinh slots are seriously thinking of actually making profits. Most of the time it's just to pass time and enjoy a few rounds of doing what you're not sure of doing Cheesy
6665  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pacquiao vs. Horn - REMATCH! on: September 04, 2017, 02:11:13 PM
He should have to, I dont know if it is a hint that this is his last game or whatever. A sports analyst was able to tell it on national T.V that he said this will be Manny's fight but with a 'maybe' on it and he added, 'we dont know' what's on the mind of Manny. Well Manny had a great boxing career like any other legends.
I really do not think there will be a rematch against Horn at this time because it is not a positive news coming out of Manny Pacquiao camp and the probability is that it wont happen this year at least and i wont be surprised if the fight is scrapped all together ,just want to hear more certain news from the Manny camp about the fight.

Well a rematch will give Manny the chance to redeem his image after that stolen verdict and so I will support every call for a rematch even if it is not certain yet . Horn must prove his worth if he thinks he indeed win the previous fight.

It's not going to make any more sense. Even pacqiao's not showing much interest in it as well. And the fight's probably not going to happen now as i think manny's going to focus on his career as a senator. He doesn't need to prove anything to jeremy horn anyways, we all saw who won.
6666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: September 04, 2017, 10:16:29 AM
I leave the game even if I have made small profits on my investment as gambling longer can be risky and can take away all my profits in the next game so instead of getting greedy I prefer to quit at the right time and be satisfied with what I have won so far.


You're wise to do so dude. Gambling has a lot of uncertainty and you don't want the happy ending of your day to turn out regretful because of greed. I've learn quite some time now that winning one time won't guarantee you a good night's sleep as your luck may turn around real quick so make the most out ofbyour winning
6667  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker v Other casino games online on: September 04, 2017, 10:10:05 AM
We all know how much bitcoin users love dice but I think even poker websites ( bitcoin supporting sites ) also generate same or even more revenue than dice sites . Do you guys play only dice or only poker or both using bitcoins ?
I will try all type of gambling in one site
Although all games will not be my favourite
Usually i will choose poker and roulette
yes that what mostly doing , rather than focused on single game only better to give a try on various games and have a various fun time! unless of course if you are a professional player , then you might could be able to play on a single game only.

i personally really hate a game like dice for personal reason, poker much more fun and fair as it is about player v player game.

Persons who are playing in all games should be for fun because not all games give your profit. Poker game is a strategic game when played with real players then it is profitable by following some strategy. Dice game played for fun is good but for long term it wont give your profit.

Right. And it limits what people call house edge as you'rennot going to be playing against the house but against other players which makes it even more exciting because of the interaction. If online poker is a fun gamblng game, i think people should also try real poker as it's a lot more fun
6668  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a problem gambler? on: September 04, 2017, 09:19:24 AM
I'll say this again people get addicted to gambling but it has been proved that it is  not as addicting as smoking and can be solved by the person. There are very rare cases but there are no solutions but for a normal addict instead of staring at your loses daily go out to a garden daily do some jogging divert your mind, go to your home live with your parents for few days , go to a animal shelter these help you to calm down and realise your mistakes

What is your basis that it is not an addictive activity? There are numerous studies pointing to that gambling as something that could be well classified as an addiction which is a mental problem similar to getting addicted to drugs and alcohol. Yeah sure it can be diverted, but not all gamblers especially the addicted ones can do this because they have something wrong in their cognitive functions.
You never know a addicted gambler is totally unpredictable he can do anything to recover his loss and at a point of time they run out of funds they still want to recover their loss but don't have the funds so they might end up doing some wrong thing

Well for these types of people, gambling sometimes is perceived to be a way out for some. Like alcohol is for an alcoholic person.it can give instant but temporary relief for people who are undergoing hardships so they can't in a way be blamed also.
6669  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with altcoins on: September 04, 2017, 09:12:52 AM
I once tried using doge for a dice game and my bet went well at first I was winning but after 30 minutes everything went wrong until I lost everything I have. I guess that was not my lucky day and even if I use altcoin for gambling I am still not a lucky person.
The odds of the game are not going to change just because you are using a different coin, the chance of winning depends directly from the house edge, so if you want to play for longer periods of time then it may me a good idea to look for the casino with the lowest house edge and play there from now on.

Well i don't think you'll find it easy to look for a casino that would tell you truthfully anything about their house edge. They'll probably sugarcoat it to a very minimum to attract more players. Though you got it on point when you said that the coins you're gambling with won't make any difference on your chances of winning.
6670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: September 04, 2017, 08:48:32 AM
A happy day is when it turned out to win and I immediately stop the game so that this happy day does not turn into the worst day because of the loss of funds.

That's just about right dude. If you've managed to exit while you're still in profit, that would  mean you've been a wise lucky guy. People don't usually have that sense of control so a lucky day can easily turn out to be a very disappointing and regretful one.
6671  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: On Which device do you Gamble? on: September 04, 2017, 08:44:47 AM
I an used to pc when playing gambling game, recently I tried to play with my mobile phone and guess what, I was kinda lost on what I am doing.  Since I am familiar with Desktop/laptop, playing the game in different OS and gadget is kinda different.  So after sometime, I switched back on using my PC to play gambling games.

If you've been used to the wide gameplay on a pc, you'll have a hard at first playing on a more compact screen on a mobile device. I remember playing a poker match for the first time on my mobile phone and it really affected by gameplay and decisions.
6672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many Bitcoins needed for martingale on: September 04, 2017, 08:42:18 AM
All the bitcoins in the world is not enough for the martingale system. It is a failed and very dangerous system. If you have a large amount of coins, hold it
 It is far better than martingale.

If you're that greedy then yeah you're right. You're just going to keep on betting and betting whether you win or not. You're certain to win with martingale but the problem is up until when are you will to play? Because every round, the bets keep on increasing so you risk losing a bigger amount the next time you bet
6673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits from Gambling on: September 03, 2017, 04:24:33 PM
Gambling = play with fire!
Small fire can be your friend. But if you started to lose control, the fire will become bigger and it will burn you. It's better to avoid it while there's still time.

Right. Fire can bemefit you by giving heat in times when you're cold, same as gambling camngive you temporary fun and enjoyment but that heat will burn you if you don't know how to get yourself away from it.

I am a big fan of the Game of Thrones and I hope some of you here are also fans. I have discovered that some sportsbetting sites are now also offering odds on who will rule at the end of the whole series. We have 2 more seasons to go before we find out who.

Who is your bet and let us discuss it. I will post my own bet and theory later after I read some of your opinions.

Who will rule Westoros at the end of the series?

Daenerys Targaryen   4.00
Jon Snow   5.00
Cersei Lannister   5.00
Sansa Stark   9.00
Tyrion Lannister   9.00
The Night King   9.00
Euron Greyjoy   11.00
Petyr Baelish   13.00

Daenerys believes she will rule over Westeros one day, but it's not likely

She's more likely to become pregnant by her niece and the kid may be the one to sit on the throne. I don't think danaerys will survive the war against the dead and probably jon snow as well. These two are the only ones likely to sit there.
6675  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: September 03, 2017, 04:17:44 PM
First time i was started gambling for fun. In starting days i was able to control myself but after good profit on daily bases i start losing my control. Fun was converted into addiction then i relized its not for me. And I quit playing with my luck.

Lol funny because a lot of people are also getting addicted because of that winning feeling. It seems that is gambling's way of luring people to oblivion. Good thing you managed to get a hold of yourself before it became too late
6676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you tell if you are suffering from gambling addiction? on: September 03, 2017, 04:15:34 PM
I can tell that I'm not suffering from gambling addition. I don't borrow money for gambling, I don't gamble everyday all day, I don't gamble to cut my loses. This three things can give you an answer are you addicted or not. If all the answers are yes then you have a big problem, and if you don't search for help it can be just worst then it's now.
Hardest part is admitting that you have a problem, and if you can't realize that you need someone to help you. Now I gamble less then before, I have more obligations this summer and less time for gambling, so if you are under pressure from gambling chill and do something else, that helps for sure.
And if the guy keeps on making plans about his next games and bets, predicting results and drawing strategies to defeat the opponent means he is a damn addict. When he decides to not gamble anymore but still found in casinos, I don't think we need any other sign.
Gambling addiction can occur when a person feels that they are in financial ruin and can only solve their problems by gambling what little they have in and attempt to get a large sum of money. You can tell if you are suffering from gambling addiction if you gamble when you cannot afford. You’re having trouble controlling gambling habits. Lastly, your friends and family express concern about your gambling.

i am agree with you. its not a good way if you are only hope that with gambling, you can winning much of money because if you are thinking like that then you need to be worried and prepare to lose your money. if you are suffering in gambling addiction then my suggestion is you need to tell with your family and asked them to help you, i am sure your family want to help you to solve your main problem.

we can know we are gambling addiction is from how good we can control ourselves in gambling games and you can not or feeling difficult to stop because of tempting from the games, then it means you are an addicting person in gambling.

People like that seriously needs professional help. If you're already in a financial distress, the last thing you would want to do is qinvolve yourself in gambling and get yourself addicted. If you know you're going that way already, i think you should think of ways on how to restrain yourself and don't expose yourself to gambling.
6677  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you determine whether you are addicted to gambling? on: September 03, 2017, 03:44:57 PM
If a person experiences a feeling of discomfort when there is no opportunity to gamble, then this is the first most serious sign of dependence. Many still try to set limits and say that they can control themselves, but one day without a game will be deadly.

Right. If it seems that you're losing sanity if you don't gamble, thinking about it everytime of the day. I can only speculate from an onlookers perspective though as i haven't experienced being addicted to gambling yet
6678  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has gambling affected your life in a good way? on: September 03, 2017, 03:42:44 PM
I do not think there is any benefit I feel in playing gambling. Honestly for me gambling is just a pleasure only. So there is no purpose other than to get pleasure. If other people might aim to make a profit then I'm not like that. I worry when I make gambling as a way to earn money then my life will be messed up and I could lose what I love.

Me too. I don't think gambling has affected by in a way that would warrant consideration. A couple of exciting wins and a few regrets probably but nothing to really be taken seriously
6679  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: September 03, 2017, 03:41:01 PM
I feel like an all-powerful winner who can change my life and get everything I want. It's so nice to experience the feeling of victory and the fact that you can afford to turn the whole world around.

Lol are you going to feel that way if you've a measely amount only? An amount that can be taken away the next bet you make. Sometimes winning gives you an urge to put more bets withe the hopes of replicating that facinating feeling when you won.

my idol GGG! I will support GGG. he's never to lose right now, have a hard blow and also a great accuracy. I predict GGG will become the winner with TKO against canelo! does anyone know, where can I bet in this fight?

I agree. I don't think these two fighters are at par with each other as there may not be someone in the current division to match up with golovkin. If i were to make a bet, it's the same as yours, either ko or tko for ggg
