Sometimes people tend to blame others because they cannot accept that it is their responsibility and it is them who got a wrong thing denial comes after losses they need to process that and deal with it. We need to be accountable in everything that we are doing because that is what we need to do , there are still gamblers who did not do this thing like me, when I lose I will accept it even it hurts and I lose again some money.
Our motivations should be entirely profit-oriented, with certain fundamental principles established by our own thoughts. We accept full responsibility for our actions, particularly when they result in gambling losses. Running away from the reality and blaming it on someone else may make us feel a little better, but it is slowly killing us, one thing I've noticed about the space, we can never run from the truth. Gambling brings more problems, and when we sign up, we know what to expect and are prepared to endure the repercussions whenever it knocks on the door. . Your awareness of what might be the possible consequences should be considered all the time. It's a tough venue especially for those who can't resist the call of gambling games. Like what you mentioned, taking full responsibility in any actions that you take will keep you center everything with what would be the possible outcome, and how you will embrace it and take it as your call and no one else should be blamed for such actions that you take. Blaming someone is not appropriate. Before you take your step, you are aware of what can happen once you place your bet. |

I absolutely agree with you. Self-control plays a very important role and not only in gambling. I think the first thing you need to learn every gambler is to control your desires and money. Until I have not acquired these skills gambling led me several times to large losses. After I learned how to limit myself, I physically cannot lose more money than I originally expected.
Controlling our own ambitions, requirements, and desires, as well as developing a legitimate source of consistent income rather than settling for gambling. It's genuine, self-control comes first; it's all about us, what we need, how much time we need, and what stimulates us to want something. Limits oneself from participating in some gambling activities, and always avoid anything that will put one under pressure, because this alone sends a clear message that what we are doing is completely wrong, and it is not wise to continue any farther. Only smart people may understand the mentioned factors to learn from their mistakes, not everyone is capable of holding these qualities as gambling is very addictive. Pressure is not something they can avoid since there are many psychological conditions that affect their mindset. It is hard to quit because of emotional damage to mental heath, the rest comes later. Gambling is easy to quit if you have self-control over your gambling activities and you don't gamble often. You can quit because you have not made it as part of you,another way that one can easily quit is when you don't let yourself get carried away by your emotions. This will enable you not to think of chasing your loss. It is very hard for an addict to quit gambling because he believes that he can win big tomorrow. Those that also think gamble is profitable will be carried away with this mindset and will never think of controlling themselves over their gambling activities. Gradually, they will become addicted without even knowing that they are addict. Correct. Making gambling activities as a past time or a habit will definitely make it hard for you to quit because other than gambling activities, you don't know any remedies on where would you blow off your steam after long days at work or when you're just bored as you are already accustomed in gambling in every free time you have. Don't take it wrong because it's not really a bad idea to choose gambling as a way to release some stress but don't do it in most occasions as that will pull you in their trap. Will lead you to engage in with more of your time and following that, it will also lead you to deposit more. Gambling as pastime if you know how to control your emotions. But if you don't have that capability, better to engage with other things and forget about using this venue to kill some time. It's hard to quit when you are participation is already deep and your engagement already gives you the adrenaline to keep pushing for more. |

I think people don't understand that there is no strategy in gambling. Gamble but consider your spendings on it as an entertainment expense. Got luck on your side and won? Good. If you don't you still had fun.
I don't really agree with your statement. It's true that gambling is all about luck, if our luck is good we win, otherwise we lose, it's that simple. But that's not entirely the case, because gambling also requires strategy, especially with regard to poker, soccer matches, and several other games. It also requires strategy and analysis, because many people have done something like this and they have succeeded in getting their profit. You can also search for some references on Google about strategies in gambling, there are many references that you can find about how to implement strategies in a game. So gambling also requires a strategy to win. Yes, in gambling and sports betting strategy makes sense but none of the strategies can guarantee a win. In my opinion correctly chosen strategy can increase the time of the game session and even increase the probability of winning, but luck plays a major role, so if you are unlucky, no matter what strategy you have chosen you will still lose. Don't chase the winnings and then you will enjoy gambling. Indeed. House always wins, no matter how many strategies we employ. Even in skill-based games like sports betting, luck plays a significant role, but your last sentence does not sound like me. I'm only playing for the profit, and I'll only have fun if I win. There is nothing else. No question about that, house always has the upper hand and only luck can give you that chance to earn from the house, I like your last statement, without money to win, the fun can't be felt. Though maybe it's an opinion based, but if taking it in reality, without any winning amount, the enjoyment is not complete, maybe you can say that you fulfil your lust of playing, but the actual enjoyment that's not being completed, in my personal insight. |

The latest DeAndre Ayton rumor is that the Suns are going to trade him in a three team deal for Tobias Harris… I think this would be a huge mistake on pretty much every level. I think Ayton has a higher ceiling, I think he meets the needs of the Suns better than Harris, and I think he’s a more valuable player right now. I hope the Suns do better than that for Ayton.
They really need to fix their team by not trading him because he has been a huge asset to the team's performance for the last few years; it may be that they think they are not getting to the finals again, but without him, it would be even more problematic because there are no much choices out there to replace him. Since KD is on the roster now, they need to work out with him and build their chemistry, and what they need to do is consistent in winning in the next season so that they will be in the best spot in the playoffs again. Trading him should be the last resort in my opinion. We witnessed the issues during the last playoffs when Ayton wasn't performing at his best. It appeared as though he no longer wanted to stay with the Suns. Even though he possesses talent as a big man, it's not worthwhile to keep him on a team where he is no longer happy to play. Durant and Booker already form a good combination; they just need to be surrounded by great role players and not individuals who would disrupt the team's chemistry. Yes, in terms of chemistries KD and Booker already shows respect with each other, they need good role players who can read that setup and create more open spaces for both superstars. They don't need anyone who will play an individual talent but someone who can contribute more with the defensive side, though can also offer good offensive threats, a 2-way player who can connect with how KD and Booker play the game. Though for me, working with Ayton would be a good decision for a big man who can give you decent stats from both sides. |

Trading without your trading strategy is just like going to the farm to work without farm tools and I wonder if you can achieve anything at the of the day. After you think you must understand things about trading, the next thing is developing a strategy around what you learned, You should have backtesting of your strategy with a Demo account to ascertain or examine how profitable you would become with it before implementing it in a live account. I realize that new traders are always in a rush to make a quick profit; they always have so much FOMO that they don't even see practicing on the demo account as something that is worth spending time on. They will just dive in straight with their capital, and with a few mistakes, all their assets will get liquidated, and they will end up casting blame on crypto. This is the reason why some people have negative perceptions about crypto. Just as you said, a trading strategy is what one can build when learning how to trade. Then you develop a strategy that best works for you, or even if you get a strategy from another trader, the person is supposed to do some practice on the strategy by using the demo account just as you stated, but most people just forget all those principles just to make a quick profit. By doing practice, you'll be able to familiarize yourself in what are the possibilities and what can you do to avoid making mistake, you'll be able to learn things and you'll be able to be ready when you step your foot inside trading. I go with the idea of watching and following some experienced traders. They can give you good hint in performing your trade, might not have the same outcome, but you'll be able to learn from how they execute their trades. It's important to take time and not to think that it's an easy journey or a quick way to earn money. |

when I started in the world of gambling, I had adopted some strategies that went wrong, in the beginning I only chose the teams that had odds of @1.50 and that were big teams playing against small teams. but even so I lost, then I changed my strategy, I started watching the games live and made bets on the moment that the favorite team scored a goal, so I bet on that favorite team that scored a goal, but even so I lost, until later I changed strategy and started to make multibet bets, but after some losing bets I also changed my strategy
this time I started making live bets but they were multibet bets, but again after several losing games I changed my strategy and started making single bets again. and I still keep losing money, until I realized that gambling is something that should be seen as fun, nothing more. the moment the person loses all his bankroll, puts in more money, and loses all bankroll, and starts a cycle of putting money back in the bankroll and losing without giving breaks, that person is already dependent on games of chance and is addicted to games of chance. bad luck, that person needs help and treatment
even if you feel you know the sports well, there is no guarantee that your bets will win because of some blind spots that we can't see. but the more you are familiar with the sports, with the athletes involved, the better chance of winning your bets. however, luck sometimes is the key factor in winning. you'll never know what kind of performance will the team bring to the table. and with your experience, even if you say you alter your strategies, still you can't guarantee that it will change the results. so yeah, just treat gambling as a side entertainment and not really a source of income. because getting screwed is high on this habit rather than going home as a winner. Yes, even how good you think you are and how accurate you think your pick can be, the ratio of winning still depends on the outcome of the game and no one can accurately predict while it's still in-play. I go with taking gambling as a source of enjoyment and use it to kill some time, instead of thinking of it as your cash-cow. There's nothing like that. Unless you are the house and you manage to establish your business, then you can make decent amount of money from your gambling activity. |

Indeed, it is basically difficult to give the exact time and price of a coin at any time. However, I'm not sure if the PEPE coin can jump up very significantly, especially if it's only influenced by Elon musk. As we know, some people will doubt Elon Musk after what he did to Dogecoin where at that time many people were tempted to buy Dogecoin because of Elon Musk's tweets on Twitter but it didn't last long and Dogecoin's price collapsed until now. Even now he doesn't care anymore about Dogecoin.
Some may still risk their money believing that there's chance that he may throw his money out from this another meme project while others will be in the position of doubting his support. And yeah, just like what happened with Doge and Shiba where his name is also mentioned, both assets are now down. Still far from the last time high. A risky investment that you'll going to take, and you really need to think about potential and risk behind. You are right that some people are still risking their money on these assets hoping to earn big profits, while others doubt their worth. Therefore, it is important to consider the potential and risks behind every investment you make. Meme projects tend to be highly speculative and prone to extreme price movements. While some people may be successful in profiting from these assets, there is no guarantee that the results will be positive for everyone. You really need to assess before you risk your money. Some might use it as a token for their daily trades or simply riding to earn some if opportunity open and they think that it is the right timing. While for most who don't take any research or any study about these types of project, they simply taking the higi-risk investment without any relevant knowledge or idea with this project, they will simply lose their money. |

I absolutely agree with you. Martingale strategy is one of the best strategies to confuse the gambler and convince him that he can use it to beat the casino.
In fact, none of the strategies in the long term will not work in favor of the gambler, because mathematically the casino will always have an advantage, so learn to gamble for fun, not to win.
Yeah, it's just part of the whole fantasy that some gamblers like to live in. They think that by using some models they can outsmart the casino, when in reality the casino is just laughing all the way to the bank with their money. Gambling is not a way to make money, it's just entertainment. The only people making money are the casinos. A gambler would like the strategy until a countless losing streak happens. One couldn't really believe that after more than 10 bets he'd lose it all. But I think its one of the phase that a gambler will just need to go thru to learn the lesson. If you were fooled thinking you could win then you have listened to same people who wants us all lose. Yeah right, that argument describes how most gamblers think about gambling, thinking that they can find the best strategy to keep winning their bets. For some reason, they manage to win and they wanted to keep repeating it. But when the time comes, when losing streak start to hit back and there's nothing in any strategy that they use works. They will realize that it's just a dream and there's nothing they can do but to accept that losses and quit away while they can still. Or, worse can happen to them and they become addicted while trying to form that working strategy inside their minds. |

He has already declined an offer and I think if he'll negotiate with that, he have already done but he's probably going somewhere else and that's what his heart is telling him.
But for sure that the Warriors are open for him to comeback and alter his decision about the decline that he has made.
He had a wish and his thoughts were different from everyone's expectations so turning down the offer was his heart's decision. After all, accepting an offer in a team when he has no intention or compulsorily accepting will also never give good results in the future. There may be other options but we don't know which one he will choose later. Yes, the Warriors are always open for him to come back at any time and this is a tough decision whether to return for the Warriors or follow his heart. But I don't think that the Warriors will give him the same digits though if Draymond Green wishes to come back and wear the same jersey because after all, NBA is a business, and the franchise will always look for an option so that somehow, they can save even a bit from their player's contracts. As of now, there are no speculations about Green's future plans like whether he'll be back or not but I'm thinking that his agent might've talked to some teams already that could give them what they wanted. That's possible. While waiting for any offer or while negotiating to any possible offer from the Warriors, it might also be possible that his agent is now trying to find an alternative in case Warriors will not provide what they wanted. He might be part of the core, but there's also a side of it where it's more on business. It can't be denied that if Warriors will not provide the demands after opting out his contract, he might be traded or he might sign to other teams. Let's wait for any update regarding to him and to which team he might play and sign an offer. |

If you arent that good when it comes to emotion handling then you would really be still falling down into making bad decisions because emotion is one of the most common culprit if we do speak about
making decisions into our lives not only on gambling but even into everyday living which we should really be that mindful when it comes to this. We should really be responsible on whatever things that we are getting involved into.We cant really just be just too hasty when it comes to things because if things turns out to be bad then it is just because you had made out that wrong decision.
This is why you should really be that responsible and be mindful and be careful on making decisions. Gambling is for fun and it does really need up money for you to spend to be able to play
and able to enjoy.
Without having that sense of responsibility, we cannot develop our abilities into something else that is more useful. In gambling, you are also required to learn and master it so that you will never cross that line when you are playing gambling. And even if you cross that line, you know when to stop and do it when it comes. And by being responsible and careful, we can have fun and enjoy gambling according to our goals in playing gambling. Becoming a responsible gambler may be tough at first, but it is worth learning and mastering. It's worth a lot if you learn how to control and be responsible as you need during your gambling sessions. It's very important that you have that set of limitations and not just to play all the way. With good control, you will be able to save your money in terms of not to exceed with your budget and you'll also be able to extend the time of your sessions. More on good knowledge to properly adjust and not to exceed, you find enjoyment and you can let things go and move forward. |

Well, unlike the other forums, basketball groups and communities, I don't think that there will be a thrown hate to you when you're just spitting your opinion. Unlike on the other areas and social networks, the toxicity there is at peak.
Well, you are right man, but still, I am just saying sorry if there could be people that don't like what I am saying, but the Chris Paul trade would be a steal if CP3 is not at 38 years old and always prone to injuries, I would love to see that trade but this is a real problem the Warriors need size and not a 6th man that might cost them a good player that they can rely upon every game, No doubt that Poole was a good player but this is the reality and the time is keeping up that everyone just have to accept that the deal was all set and done. The Phoenix Suns upgraded its roster with a deadly 4 All-Star combo.
With the Suns performance last season, this is too much for everyone to expect better performance for this upcoming season. What are the other rumors and trades that have been mind blowing so far except from the known ones that we've already got on this thread? I think for Jordan Poole, he has to move on with playing with the Wizards now. And who knows, he could be their star after Beal and Kuzma as they are in a rebuilding phase. Fans though of the Warriors might not get this very easy because they love Poole. But with his performance from last season, he has to let go. And I do agree that I see CP3 coming off the bench now, this could protect himself from injuries. Steph will still be their starting PG and their roster is still intact even if they let go of Poole. Problem with Poole though is that there are no "baddies" going to watch Wizards game,  I see your point and if he will desire to be as competitive as he can be, it's a great chance for him to move away from the shadow of Steph, he can do whatever he wants without comparison. Who knows, if by chance he will manage to bring this team to a competitive type of squad, they are in a rebuilding process and the chance to lead the team is way high. knowing that he's capable of bringing good numbers, he can be the offensive arsenal, something that's already built-in to his kind of play. |

It is difficult to predict exactly the future of any cryptocurrency, including altcoins like ETH, ADA, XRP and TRON. However, if you look at developments, it seems that altcoins like ETH and TRON are not going to die.
Not sure indeed only time can tell about those alts that still exist and if what's the fate of them with this business, you need to be selective with project that you'll going to buy and hold. Learn from past experienced the market is volatile and fluctuation is unavoidable you need to use your time to do your deep research before taking your investment. Those mentioned coins/projects are example of assets that you can pick after doing your research. Correct. indeed the crypto market is volatile and fluctuating. Of course, we have to be able to do in-depth research and do our own research before making a decision to invest in cryptocurrency. If we do that, then at least we can minimize the potential losses that we will face. Even it's been a while since I replied to this post, I think it's a good to know knowledge before taking your investment, with a good understanding of how volatile the space of crypto market is. You would be able to pick the right asset and the right timing to invest your money. More on how you research and study each potential asset to hold, and set your target on both the passive profit and possible negative losses. |

Bank have no other financial way of generating their income than the charges they deduct from our individual accounts and how they engage our money in doing other businesses that fetch them more money than we ever imagine, if we ever have an idea of how they generate from us through the deposit we make with them on our account ad yet still make indiscriminate deductions, that same day we will stop using them and withdraw our entire money.
If you fully understand the setup and you have a good trust in yourself in keeping your money, maybe you won't hesitate to do it by yourself and let you hold and save it in your own vault. But, most of the people are not that secured by their own ways as they needed the help of the banks to store their money, you are right there are cycles that banks are doing with the depositors' money and they are good at doing it, especially in finding resources to invest. It's the system and how the bankers playing on it that makes them more money from the depositors' assets. |

Most probably the strategy that Santiago will use is to be quick to score as he has better stamina than Donaire.
He needs to be quick, maybe as quick as Rigo, as Donaire really struggled against Rigo because the latter is very slick. Bookies are not wrong with the betting odds they display. Of course, the public will favor Donaire, as he is the more popular boxer, while Santiago is just a rising boxer who would only become a superstar once he beats the popular Donaire. If I were to bet, I would go for Donaire winning via KO in 6 rounds or less, or bet on Santiago to win the full fight via a judges' decision. In my opinion, it is more probable that Donaire will win by KO in 6 rounds or less. I've seen some fight highlights of Santiago, and I'm not impressed with his wins. So even if the fight goes to the judges' scorecards, there's still a chance that Donaire will win. The only way Donaire will lose is if Santiago is able to wear him down, which is not easy to do if a boxer is not as fast as Inoue. And in my opinion, Donaire still has that capability with his timing and his strong hook that might combine with an open combination of punches he can take down Santiago. I also manage to watch Santiago's fights and I think the chance of upsetting Donaire is still slim, though we don't know and we can't conclude the possible outcome, but if Santiago will continue using his style of fighting, his winning chance is not that high. Donaire winning via KO in 6 rounds seems attractive and lots of fans will ride and risk for it. |

Didn't expect the move of GSW trading Poole to get CP3 and so is Poole I guess. I thought he is one of the future of GSW along with Kuminga. Maybe, it would be a different story if only he perform well last season. I don't think Poole loves to be traded. Based on my observation he wanted to stay in GSW like Curry, and Thompson. As for CP3, joining GSW is his best chance to get a ring before his retirement in a few more years.
After his performance last season, the GSW has lost interest in him, and they're not planning to have such a stubborn player to be GSW image it could be a waste to not get CP3 when he is available and looks like his chance to get NBA championship is still alive if the GSW can improve their play with his now in the rosters. 2024 is kinda more interesting than the previous season I'm sure we will see lots of surprise trades after the NBA draft probably in these upcoming days. His ring chance is possible with the Warriors. I'm just hoping that will go to acquire another big role player to help Looney and Green fighting inside, with CP3 now he can move the ball, but he might compromise the defense. But I think he will be a good fit still as Warrior's principle "offense is the main defense". Knowing CP3, he can provide good numbers, maybe he's lack in height but with special skills he can add the pressure to collapse the defense and let splash bro to get the free shots. |

Of course it is very easy if gamblers can stop their gambling habit if they continue to accept defeats in gambling. But for people who are addicted to gambling, it will be difficult to stop... because it has become their habit. every week or even monthly to improve his family's economy.. it's impossible for him to stop..
An addict can change if he has found his saturation point in playing gambling where he feels frustrated never getting any wins and lots of debts which he has to pay off, usually gamblers like that will stop on their own and don't need advice, because with him not getting the way out of all the problems the only way is to stop and solve all the problems. On the contrary it is debt repayment that makes an addict stick tight with the notion of trying his luck harder to repay. If you ask most addicts in gambling the reason for not stopping, they tell you that they are indebted and will stop soon when they repay. They promise to stop and give you timeframe but when that time comes they still tell you another date. Addiction is a serious habit that people may not be able to stop until they get help. Something that stuck inside the mindset and will continue to dominate if the person itself is unwilling to accept help coming from other people who are caring for them. That said scenario is a reality that happened in gambler who keep pushing his luck to achieve success, trying to win to pay loans. but instead of stopping after reaching the amount, greed will follow and will push them to play more and again the money will lose and they need to keep repeating without changing anything. |

No one can predict the future, least of all market forecasts but if you have faith in the future capabilities of bnb then you could give them a chance, obviously never invest more than what you are afraid of losing
Simply and precisely, if you believe that the market for BNB will continue to rise even there's a struggle or there's issue then better to put your money into this asset. But the general rule is never to invest what you can't afford to lose or if you are unsure, it's better to think twice and do more research. It's your money that you are protecting. Make a deeper research and do your diligence to assess what opportunity you have when investing your money. |

Yes, you can, and you always have a chance to win even $1000 or more, but the chances of you winning often, or even throughout your session or once, is fairly low. That is how gambling works. The gambling industry will not thrive if it is so simple to generate a consistent profit in gambling. Making $100 a day in gambling is a pipe dream, and that is a fact. If you still think that, my friend, you're on the wrong track.
Simple and precise. Winning is not impossible as there's always a chance for you to pick the right game or sport to bet your money, but winning often that's something that is questionable if there's someone who claims that they can. More on good discipline and control with your emotions, plus good bankroll management, then still the chance of losing is still possible and just like you said, gambling industry might be dying now if there's such a thing. |

Today bitcoin touched $30k after more than 3 months under $30k, and now it makes me even more optimistic that the market will rise again and hopes for a bull run are getting real, I'm sure in June the price can still go up and touch at least $35k.
Well, probably many investors are happy to see Bitcoin reached $30k price once again after months of waiting. The sudden surge might because of the EDX market news that influenced crypto positively making Bitcoin and some alts to pump. Anyway this is a good news to those who bought Bitcoin at cheaper price and just waiting for a bull season, though it's not certain yet if bearish market is already over. We're in the last month of the second quarter so it's nice that before it end Bitcoin had an increased. Who knows it might reach $40k in the coming months. We are still unsure if the market will continue to rise as there are many factors that may bring it down again, but yes, those who bought in a much lower price is now enjoying the profits. Those who are into future trade are surely taking advantage of the price that they are seeing and they are making decent profits while the market still pumping. Just be careful positioning your trade, and always have an alternative option if you fail to short the market. |

There is no normal being that loves getting losses on business, career, investment and trades that's why even company holders make financial policies to keep record of investment and profits flows. And unlike other business bitcoin also makes sales and losses if you do not invest wisely....is nice when you put in what can not put you sickbed or gives you hypertension, don't invest out of what you cannot withstand the loss.
Is better to use small money or learn risk management first before investing especially newbies.
Absolutely. Only use spare money and that money you are willing to lose. It's like getting into the university again but this time your own failure will be the one that will teach you. And guess what? If you have the proper risk properly, and you are able to follow it very well, you will last long in the game. You may not have big returns, BUT you will last long enough to learn want you need to learn. And what I believe newbies will need to do. That's the beauty of it. Part of that learning process is losing your position in your investment. The reason why it's better to use such an amount that you can let go and will not bring a heavy burden to you. Along the way, when you already learn and be familiar with how the market works, then you can add more, the chance of losing still present, but the chance of making a good outcome is also good. More on how you'll going to position yourself after understanding and learning the market. |
