Not all gamblers that plays with a small amount of  money in order to win big amount do so out of greed it could be that  the small money of $10 was the amount they had with them at the time of making the bet, some however, do use small amounts as a means to be able to have many chances of playing to try their luck instead of using all of the money at ones. While some are just mere greed, they want to win even more than a $100 with just $5, even if it's possible with luck setting in but it's rare to happen and before it does you could have lost many times more than whatever amount you will be winning.
Yes, that's true because each gambler has a different fund allocation so they will gamble based on their fund allocation. But most gamblers who use small bets and can win large amounts of money will try to gamble again to win even more. Even though it is not recommended, that is what happens to many gamblers so it only increases the number of losses later. We cannot hope that luck will remain with us in the next round so that the final result will remain uncertain whether we win or lose. They may only be able to continue gambling but have to accept the risk if they lose because they desire to continue gambling.
A lack of  satisfaction and high expectations is what makes some gamblers to still continue playing after having a win that was supposed to be taken as the achievement of the day but they get unsatisfied with the amount bethinking that maybe if they could try another bet again it might get them lucky to win again but it most times ends in loss. For the fact that I was lucky to win ones or probably twice at a row doesn't make it certain that I might continue in the winning streaks. Sometimes that one win after many times of losses for the day is just fortune own way of smiling at us so we don't go back home completely emptied.

Newcastle has been the better side so far in this game pressurizing Manchester united without pity forcing them to sit down in their own 18 yard box, making errors and causing fowls and  I don't think Manchester united can survive this pressure from Newcastle tonight, they will eventually concede. Newcastle  just need to be more creative in the second half with the ball to find a goal behind the red devil's net. Manchester united has lost their old glory and it's just a shame they are playing so terrible with team work and pattern unlike their opponent in this game that's playing as a team that knows what they are out tonight for.

Its very hard to believe that Newcastle united couldn't find the back of the net with several chances in front of goal and hitting the woodwork and mesmerizing the Manchester united defence as if they they were playing against a youth team, how they couldn't find the back of the net is something can't figure out, but I can tell you for sure that the Manchester united side were extremely lucky to have not conceded a goal in the first 45minutes and I wonder how long it would take before they run out of luck, they just have to step up their game or risk being beaten tonight because the Newcastle side are playing with so much intensity and pace tonight and they will surely come back with more fire in second half and if the red devils do not brace up, then Newcastle may break the deadlock.
it would have been very disappointing had Newcastle united not gotten a goal in this game after all of the pressures, just after that goal it seems Newcastle felt relaxed taking a back sit withdrawing the  intensiveness of their pressure which Manchester united tried to take advantage of  the incentive and started making a bit of a possession but it was too late.  Newcastle won the game with 1:0 victory, had all the ball possession, shots on target, and with the highest number of touches in the 18 yard box in this game, Manchester had nothing to boast of except fowl kicks. Admittedly, Manchester united has collapsed tactically under Ten Hag's watch this season,

This Arsenal team is extremely great this season, a side with the most clean-sheet in the EPL this season.  I am impressed with the performance of Tomiyasu in this game his energy and concentration shows hinsi back to his former self, pairing with Gabriel .j, Odegaard and Saka to give an excellent combo that's destroying the Wolves team in the first 45mins, Arsenal leading 2:0. Perhaps we should expect more goals to come in the second half as Gabriel .J is yet to register his name into the score sheet.
On the other side of the premier league Burnley is leading 2:0 against Sheffield united who are one man down due to a red card.
Wolves had almost no chances. they didn't have enough possession to create gaps in Arsenal's defense.
Gabriel Jesus did contribute quite well to Arsenal's attack. but this season he hasn't talked much about scoring. Even in 9 appearances in the EPL, he has only scored 1 goal. but something was different when he played in the UCL.
however, Arteta has 3 very dangerous front players. they also have a strong midfield. Arsenal deserves to compete for trophies this season. and I hope they don't repeat the mistakes of last season when they were close to holding the trophy.
I hope so too that they don't repeat the mistake of previous season after giving their all only to get it all wrong at the end. I think a solidification of their position at the top of the table with a clear distant points away from City let say 10-12 points clear will be great. Also, I just wish to talk about the the 1 goal conceded by Arsenal in this game in the 86mins of play, that Cunha goal was due to a defensive error which I think coach Artheta need to give a close look at his defender's for correction in future, because the last 10mins before full time wasn't funny for a team whose objective is to win the EPL trophy this season.

So it is not wise to 100% trust a site , as anything unexpected can happen any time. We should be prepared and never store so much money on freebitco or any site.
It is true that we cannot completely trust third parties, but we can choose the right place for our money, even though the wallet is not completely safe either, there are also some cases of them losing their money in the wallet either because of phishing sites or others, all of them It depends on each user how they want to store their money, third party sites like exchanges or sites like freebitcoin.

There is no guarantee that money will be safe, but we might be more careful in choosing sites or other places to store and place our money and it is not wise to trust third party sites 100%, even personal wallets are also not completely 100% either, The point is that it comes back to each individual's choice, if I personally only save a few FUN tokens in FreeBitcoin just to get WOF, the rest I keep in my wallet as a long-term investment.
Every storage methods have their risks, but without any doubts it's much more risky to keep your money at third party hands than keeping the coins with yourself. By storing your coins inside a cold wallet, the maximum which can happen is to lose the keys and access to your wallet, but then it's totally your fault for not taking care of it properly, while when storing money at online platforms your money will be under the responsability of someone else, so you will depend on them all the time. It still seems much safer to think you are the only one controlling your funds instead of relying on others to do so, unless you have the conscience of being a very careless, inattentive person.
Story your coins in third party control like the exchangers is same as keeping your money in the bank which some persons hate but still have their coins sleeping in an CEX of what difference does it make. The least I can do with CEX is that my coin gets in there for trading and p2p transactions immediately am done I transfer bank to my non-custodial wallet. It's only irresponsible people that will be scared of manning the responsibility of keeping their own money safe through the safety of their private keys. Your coins are safer when you have charge over your keys than when it's in third party's the rules are so much to bear.

Congratulations to you OP if this story of yours is true.

Mine was having a shitcoin airdrop way back then, that's why I didn't bother to sell it that time. Way back 2018, its price went up to a decent amount, but it's not that big, I sold it for around $500 worth of Ethereum. I was so happy with that since it was just an airdrop. I don't know how big was your fund collected from your old account or wallet but I'm pretty sure that was a blessing in disguise.
I see people questioning about the genuineness of op story I can't blame their doubts as a lot of stories similar to this sort has been cooked and served on the forum many times but something tells me this is a real one as I have had someone with similar experience in his own case he was so lucky to have the username and password in an old scrap pad (notebook) he lost memory of where he had placed it after some years when he was relocating  as he was packing and disposing off item's he won't be needing anymore he stumbled on the notebook. So things like this happen but in different ways for different people people only that we can't say for sure which is genuine when we read them in the forum.

I have a little knowledge but I need a guide. Bought some cryptocurrency like XRP and Bitcoin. Currently people only talk about Bitcoin but the price is very high for me to afford investing in it. I don't know why I feel like it's the only cryptocurrency worth investing and I would love to try  but am still learning gradually about it.
You're damn right bitcoin right now is the only cryptocurrency worth investing on, it's with an irrelevant risk when compared to other altcoins supposing you are investing for a long term. Don't get bothered about the price you don't have to owned 1bitcoin to be a proud BTC owner you can always buy from how much you have and probably DCA to increase your portfolio returns eventually. About not having cemented knowledge it's fine as long as you have the interest to learn, you can invest and be learning at same time in that way you're growing both in knowledge and portfolio.

do you think, a parade like this will be effective in reducing the level of gambling addiction?
Looking at the video, it seems that what the public will get from the parade about the gambling campaign, especially slots, is just the humor, while the moral message may not be as impactful, although it is possible that there will be people who will be awakened by seeing the parade.
In fact, on social media there are also quite a lot of videos that provide education about the importance of being careful in gambling, especially slot games, how a person can become bankrupt from previously owning a car, then because of slot gambling, it decreases to motorbikes, then to bicycles and finally becomes homeless.
We must appreciate every action to make people realize how dangerous gambling is if done without responsibility, but it will all come back to each person when they see campaigns like that, some finally realize it but many still gamble and even become addicted because everyone has free will to choose especially when he keeps seeing how people who have won a lot show off their results so he becomes so tempted.
The parade is a welcome initiative being an educational parade that was made to education the public about the dangers of gambling especially excessive gambling, if only people will be ready to listen and digest it practically we won't be having increasing cases of gamblers who were ones rich now becoming from millionaire to homelessness. On the other hand too, this parade can also seem like a publicity to create awareness that tickles the mind of those that don't gamble at all to be tempted to try and see what it's like to gamble . So it's like a coin of two different sides, how the people receipt the educational parade all depends on their perspective about it.

Everybody Gambles,but the extent to which one goes in gambling is what makes some people gambling addict, while some are not because they are able to control their emotions.Gambling with caution is very essential for any one who wants to begin or start gambling,he must bare in mind that excess of everything is bad, therefore,the moment you see yourself getting too much involved in gambling,or going extra mile to gamble,the best thing to do is witdraw yourself from those group of friends that lure you into gambling,if there is no body pushing you to gamble,then you have to avoid the casino hall you visit regularly.This is the only way you can help yourself.I am able to say this because this was what helped me.
As simple as that- truly the excess of anything is bad no matter how positive that thing is immediately abuse infiltrate into the use of it it turns bad and that's excat what gambling addicts experiences with gambling they do it excessively without a limit. The best practice to use in avoiding going to far in gambling is not to allow yourself to excessive gambling. You don't have to be regular at the gambling house or online there should be intervals and when it's time to gamble it should be with a budgeted amount and time not exceeding it whether you're winning or losing, whether the friends you went with to the gambling hall are yet to leave or not when the stipulated time and amount you budgeted for yourself elapses be disciplined to leave and you won't have troubles with addiction.

How would one in the first play invest with a range of $10 and expecting to win $100 with the stake with no stress in just matter of seconds, hours for a just a day?
What ever the nature of gambling would be, it is indeed a game of greed and change change it.
Though such a game as shown if lost at last is apparently a greed. Such person's are likely not beholding to responsible gambling.

It is possible to play with a small amount of $10 and win $100 in return. It’s a slim possibility for having a win but one nevertheless. Such games I’ve personally seen are football games having a large number of games to be played. I wouldn’t say games played with such amounts are played entirely cause of greed. Some play having crazy high hopes of a win while some play looking to see how many of their predictions came out correct.

Such games like the one posted by the OP, if lost can’t be fully attributed to greed. It could also be poor decision making at the time. Some players who are willing to take the risk to see how the outcome would be keeping in mind that the outcome may not favor them.
Indeed, gamblers can win $100 with a betting capital of $10, but that is very rare for most gamblers. Most gamblers will only lose that $10 and will be motivated to deposit more money to win the gambling game. They feel they can still gamble by depositing more money so they choose to deposit more money. Sports betting is a game that they can choose because they can bet with small stakes several times but they must have the ability to find a team that has a chance of winning.
Not all gamblers that plays with a small amount of  money in order to win big amount do so out of greed it could be that  the small money of $10 was the amount they had with them at the time of making the bet, some however, do use small amounts as a means to be able to have many chances of playing to try their luck instead of using all of the money at ones. While some are just mere greed, they want to win even more than a $100 with just $5, even if it's possible with luck setting in but it's rare to happen and before it does you could have lost many times more than whatever amount you will be winning.

In group E ,the game between Liverpool and  LASK, the first half ended in Favour of Liverpool where Luis Diaz scored the account opening goal for Liverpool. Mohammed Salah needs to step up his game in the front, I didn't see that flexibility in him in the first half and I hope he performance in this second half and to get a bit spicey in his touches with the ball . Liverpool had opportunities to score more goals in the first half but they failed, the team generally should bring in more strength and do better in this second half.
It's an incredible night of bangers for Liverpool conquering this game with 3:0 home lead at the moment, Diaz made the opener followed by Gakpo giving the 2nd goal with M.Sallah's assist, and the 3rd was a fantastic penalty kick from M.Sallah who have come out better in the second half compared to how cold he was in the 1st 45mins. Liverpool is unstoppable tonight and Lask don't have a but of a chance to change things maybe in the next season.  The team is playing with a lot of harmony and have been clinical with all chances and that's what has earned them the 3goals the 83mins of play.
Match of the evening for me was the Marseille vs ajax game although all the games were interesting but this game really caught my eyes, Ajax have really turned to another thing because this wasn't the team I used to know, I mean the name has lost all atom of respect from me and its funny seeing the odd given to them the Marseille team.

Well all the same the game was a blockbuster affair filled with so much goals and tension and the atmosphere was suitable for this kind of match .
This season has been a miserable one for Ajax both in their local league and in the Europa they have been struggling really bad, sadly this is one of their worst season in the Europa as the couldn't even get a single win in 5 games played they only managed to draw two games having just 2points in their group being at the very bottom. Ajax is known as one of those clubs that usually sells their star players each season but even as that they do managed to give a brilliant performance but this particular season is something disastrous for the them, maybe it could be that the move of ten hag from the club to Manchester united affected them too.

Any casino that can boldly create a space for such for gamblers to place bet predictions on it is just an enemy of the remaining peace we are all enjoying In this disturbing world.

Welcome to the forum @OP.

Or, maybe as time goes on, op might be dropping update about their site conclusion and kick off. Am just saying!
I remember there was an user create a similar post where he announced his casino and the site is only has one page like this, he promised to launch it after his site is already finished. But until now I don't see it, I also forget what's the names lol. Hope the @OP will not be same like the other user I mentioned before.
Yeah I have seen such cases too and some of them that didn't return could be due to insufficient funds to completely finish  and give a launchpad to their project so they went dark. We just hope it's not same case with @OP project, January is just a few weeks from now and so we keep our fingers cross to getting a positive update from them regarding their promise as forum members will be more than willing to give publicity to their brand through a signature campaign as usual.

699  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? on: November 30, 2023, 05:23:58 PM
Can betting with 1.01 odd be called as a steady income ? Cheesy Yes, some times you lose with that strat, but in most cases your balance increases. Small victory every day. What can be better than that? If that does not suit as a steady income, then there is none of it. I have never seen or heard gamble make "average salary" from gambling. It is either busted, or lucky to win maybe couple of hundreds. I am speaking about a gambler who gambles every day, not a guy who rarely deposits and expect huge wins (this guys usually lose their balances during first 30min imho).

I don't know about you, but those odds sometimes feel like a trap, to be honest. As if they are supposed to attract gamblers and bettors to get all in with as much money as possible, so they can turn that small multiplier into a handful of bucks, while risking thousands of dollars... I don't know, it sounds attractive but it is not something I would feel comfortable doing, knowing that in any second I could lose it all.

I remember a dedicated thread here in the gambling section of the forum about a gambler who thought he could get away with wagering a lot of money at very low multipliers and still lost.
Those odds rather incite people to wager more than they are willing to let go, I think.
Truly those small odds are a trap in disguise that only few gamblers knows about it and take caution about it because for you to make high amount of return betting on those odds you would need to use high multiplier  amount to wager this is something the odds makers knows that that's what can bring much money in a single lost bet so they get trickish with setting those odds. That's why I don't consider small odds as a possible way to stay on a winning streaks, anyone may argue this but it's okay if they do.

Liverpool team is strong. And Liverpool have the strongest squad among Europa League teams. And this is why the Liverpool team is considered as the favorite for the Europa League title. But the main problem is that big teams like Liverpool or Barcelona have no interest in the Europa League title. Liverpool will be looking to dominate the Premier League first. And the Europa League title is their second priority. And we have already got the proof. Despite a fantastic performance in the Premier League, the Liverpool team lost against Toulouse in the Europa League match. Personally I don't think Liverpool are favorites for the Europa League title.
Yes, the EPL title is always Liverpool's main target, but becoming double winners by winning the Europa League will also be a priority for them, meaning Liverpool will not let this opportunity pass them by. I still believe that the Reds will always prioritize being the best in the Europa League and he remains a strong candidate to achieve that.
it's hard to agree that Liverpool can double have a trophy this season particularly as  the EPL title winner of this season with the Manchester City and mostly Arsenal that are on fire this season causing destruction to every team that cross their part. In summary, I think Liverpool have a higher chance of winning the Europa than the EPL so they should focus more energy on that path as divided target can cause them to lose on both sides. The round 16 of the Europa league is the hardest round in competition as new teams that didn't make it to the next round in the UCL will be returning from  to meet with the existing ones in Europa making the competition much competitive.
