There are many ways yo play gambling smartly but in my opinion one most important is not to over spend and have limitations and know where to stop. Thats the most basic strategy there is.
If you are a smart enough person then you will never come into gambling. The smart way of gambling must be staying away from gambling or quitting gambling.
That is not smart because it's being coward by sacrificing your passion in life, yes, gambling is a passion for anyone who treats it as a fun activity in life. I do gamble most of the time and I'm not surprise with my loses but the amount of happiness I was able to get in return is more than the amount of money I was able to spend.

Maybe my thinking is not common to others as most of them are into profit making, I have tried that in the past but experience teaches me to mature and help me realize that gambling will be only be fun if you do it for fun not thinking of the reward.

If you are not really sure as to how would you invest in something then first thing's first, you need to really make sure about something e.g. research and check whether the site is legit. It's true that you can place some investment in gambling sites however it is also true that investment on these type of sites usually are bust after some lucky high roller beats the house.
Just don't only listed to what people are saying, you have to make your own research and take the opportunity to do it since you are in the forum where people love to share their opinion and others may even make an experiment to prove about how profitable investment in casinos is.
This thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1585408.1080 is one of my basis why I'm interested investing in online casinos.

Money can be in any form. It is a medium of exchange. It can be used for payment transaction. Since bitcoin is acceptable as payment for goods and services, therefore bitcoin is way the same as money. Or shall we say bitcoin is money.
Some of the characteristics of money are in bitcoin, however it cannot be considered as money since it's not legally recognize as money by the government. Bitcoin cannot be independent since it's value is dependent on fiat, let's admit that we are interested with bitcoin because it has
a good value in fiat. Even how successful bitcoin is, it will still be measured base on fiat as there's no government that controls bitcoin, hence the proper way of calling bitcoin is only a payment system and not money.
6864  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: March 11, 2017, 12:33:36 PM
If you are playing gambling and you notice you cant able to control yourself then its really better to stop as early as you can since these behavior will surely make you broke in longer runs because if you cant control yourself specially on betting behavior then you are really at risk.
Everyone will notice that they can't even control self from being greedy but they don't stop instead they still chasing their looses on gambling. Ever since i already learn my mistake from being greedy not able to control my temper every time i played gambling i focus now on trading minize risk than gambling. If you addicted on that probably it will be wreck your life.
Gambling is more intense than trading because you enjoy the action while you are betting, therefore it's more risky as sometimes it cannot be avoided will be emotionally attached with what we are doing. When we started to lose, that is when the devil will come, it will tease us to chase and we are close minded with the negative possibilities of the outcome. I have been regretting most of the time but sometime you find yourself still doing the same mistake again, that's life and that's gambling, you have to bear it.
6865  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin had a stable price, would it still be as popular? on: March 11, 2017, 05:10:54 AM
It would still have a backing but to be honest it will not be the same as to where it stands right now. Imagine bitcoin was still living on people's basements back in the days when it is only worth a couple of cents, but enthusiasts saw that it has a potential in making it big so that's what happened. Here we are right now, celebrating with the price increases.
And thanks to what is the price of bitcoin growing? I think because of the demand, like any product because of this, it becomes more expensive. But how really everything happens to me is not clear.
You just answered your own question, it's because of the demand that's why we are seeing a good price nowadays. The system is perfect since it's revolutionary and people feel using bitcoin will give them more convenient in online transaction especially in gambling. Like what we have witnessed now, we have seen how the bitcoin gambling industry is growing and not only that, there are more and more success to come.

For now, it's still early to conclude that we have achieve the ultimate success because it's not happening yet, the price goes up and down it's not stable obviously.
6866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What type of sports you love in sports betting and why? on: March 11, 2017, 04:30:36 AM
Football is a nice sport to play with when there is enough Bitcoins within the gambling balance. If you ever have a chance then I would recommend that you try it out.

Football (not soccer or futball) is pretty cool to see when it is on T.V because people collide head first into each other while moving with heavy armor paddings and crashing into each other on purpose. The sport is fun to play and fun to watch. Winning money on the side is awesome as well.
Sports has always been a primary choice, especially if it is a ball sport. exercise ball is a sport that has the most support of any type of sport there is. I think, especially those of ball sports betting is a kind of gambling is most preferred.

It all depends on individual people what they like. For me, cricket is best because I too played this game and knew all teams strength. But I won't bet on all cricket games, will wait for more interesting and most likely going win a match. So for I'm in profits in sports betting, but I always go with small amounts for each bet around $10 to $30 range.
It will be more fun if we are playing on our favorite games and especially if we have that discipline to put only what we can afford to lose. Having a bet range is a good way to enjoy in gambling so even if we lose that will not make us rage to chase our bets. I love sports betting and I bet almost everyday, the live betting is my favorite as I believe when watching the game live, I can make a good decision what value to take.
6867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: March 11, 2017, 03:50:25 AM

It's always better to invest. But as we are humans, gambling is more interesting most of the time Smiley


If you are an open minded person for sure you will choose to invest. With my experience, gambling is good, money is fast but the thing is that you need to have bigger bankroll in able to have good return and will have a lot of chance of winning. I personally prefer to go with investment this is the best between two options and we know about it.
Your bankroll is not needed yet if you have not proven you are good in gambling. Everyone must start with a little amount if they want to make a journey in gambling, let us not underestimate gambling as it has ruin many lives already due to our wrong belief that it can give easy money.

If you are serious in gambling, treat it as like you are running a business and that means you need to consider a lot of factors in order to succeed, adjust your method from time to time as there is no method that will work forever.

6869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: March 10, 2017, 10:46:09 AM
Entertainment and profit from winning keeps me coming back. Well, it is really enticing to play game and win or win while having fun. Who would reject an opportunity as such?
seems good you always come back to gambling is only just for entertainment and profits
i am not sure if you always make profits, i think you also get some losses too
looking for entertainment in gambling is not smart choice for me because it's very risky
It's a smart choice for me because that is how it suppose to be played, playing for fun also is not risky for me because I will ensure that the amount I put is the amount I can afford to lose or an amount intended for having fun. The risk will only come if you will gamble to have fun and make money at the same time.
6870  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Win using martingale system? on: March 10, 2017, 05:23:34 AM
Martingale seems to be effective for me from the early days of my entire gambling days. But right now, I don't have guarantee on this strategy. I prefer to not to depend now on any strategy like this one. And OP is right, this is just applicable for those people who can avail to have huge bankroll so this is just good for rich gamblers.
Yeah, everyone cannot be successful through martingale strategy. One who holds big bankroll can be successful. But even the one holding big bankroll doesn't get the guarantee of winning. It has got increased probability of retaining the loss and not earn high.
Only the big bankroll will not help you to win in martingale system, and you need time sense, you need to know when to stop then only this martingale system will work. If you blindly use this method, it will make your wallet empty. And this is a very dangerous method within few minutes you will lose your money. So be careful while using this method.
Knowing on when to stop is the hardest thing when you do play martingale method since there are intances which you would be fooled by winnings and would urge the feeling that you can still able to make profits even on more time but in reality on martingale sudden lose will always come out instantly.
There should be a method that you need to employ in order for you to stop at the right time, stopping in winning is the hardest because you can easily stop when your bankroll is wipe out in the event you lose. Martingale method is very risky, hence it is necessary for a gamble who will use this to have a discipline and always focus on the game plan.
6871  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Really The Future Of Money? on: March 10, 2017, 05:05:48 AM
This what all the bitcoin community to be happen, to make bitcoin become the new world currency in all country. But now we are just starting up in the fulfillment of the future of bitcoin. It may take years from now before it happen, but the good things is there is a brighter future awaiting to all bitcoin enthusiast.
I will definitely agree with that, the future is very bright for us bitcoin enthusiast and to be honest I have my time spend mostly in learning bitcoin and exploring opportunities to earn. We are optimistic about its future and we put our investment on it, with that it is just right to make an effort to help in awareness of the people to attract users.

The government is very aware of bitcoin and there positive actions will give an big impact on the market as a whole, you know people government will endorse bitcoin, people will trust it. AFAIK, they are making laws to ensure the proper usage of bitcoin to be able for the users not to compromise what they have in the future.
6872  Economy / Economics / Re: panic selling on: March 10, 2017, 01:55:46 AM
What if somebody will make a huge dump and sell it all the way to earn some profits because of this rally in bitcoin,and someone sees it and do that same thing. Is there any effect on bitcoin when someone to this,?

never panicked in the trade as a result of her would be fatal, loss in front of you if you panic, there is quiet when the price rises there are times when the prices will fall will probably take a long time to ride again
Focus is what you need in trading, you will do the right thing all the time when you are well informed with what you are trading. Mostly those who panic  are people who are not making a good research about bitcoin.

Just recently the value of bitcoin has drop very fast and if you panic that time you will lose your money because as we can see not, the price is climbing back again and we are in $1,200 once again. It's a game of the clever people, be one of them if you want to stay trading longer.
6873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 10, 2017, 01:39:23 AM
Oklahoma City Thunder vs San Antonio Spurs , it will be an exciting game ! i will bet for Over 210.5 points .
Indeed this is going to be an exciting game, the Thunder are very desperate to win this match and by looking at the line you know it implies something.
Still, I'm a little bet doubtful with betting Thunder ML because they have been tanking lately, instead I will try to bet for the over of this game and it looks appealing to me. You know the attitude of the spurs they do not want to give away games as they are focus with leading this league.

Good luck to us, I hope this will be a good night for the Thunder backers.
6874  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing money on bitcoin..! on: March 08, 2017, 11:49:38 AM
Nowadays many people are starting to invest money on bitcoin or the buy bitcoin..is this a good approach?
How this will influence us in future?
Absolutely, now is the time to invest bitcoin because it is still in the early phase and to be able to invest in early will make us more profitable if the future of bitcoin will be a success. Being optimistic with the future value should be in our hearts, let's believe because we invest and watch bitcoin as it continues to progress. In any investment, it's important that you should only put what you can afford to lose since it's also a gamble, therefore it's not guaranteed that we will all be successful.

As people are continually adopting because they enjoy using bitcoin and they have given the opportunity as well, it's a big impact on the growth of bitcoin which will eventually make the price higher overtime.
6875  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE CASINO - CONGRATULATIONS TO WONTON FOR WINNING 300BTC on: March 08, 2017, 11:02:06 AM
When I first read the title and how you guys were complaining about it I assumed this was a 300BTC win back when BTC was like $50/coin. However this was only 2 months ago, so the BTC/USD price is not too far off so I would still consider that valid.

Looking at those pictures of wonton22 betting, I wonder what his strategy is by the way how he decides how to bet. Wonder if he has some secret to his winnings or if he is just some early adopter with 10000 BTC in his wallet.
Probably you cannot determine what his strategy by simply looking at the picture, let's just assume this guy is very lucky and he is one of the few gamblers who has the balls to bet big time with dice. He risk bigger therefore he deserved to win big, actually if you look at his winning rate, it's not that impressive but to risk that kind of bet, that's awesome and it amaze every time I think of it.
6876  Economy / Services / Re: BitDice Casino Signature Campaign [WILL START 1 DECEMBER] on: March 08, 2017, 07:25:29 AM
I've an announcement to make.

As of tomorrow, all of the pay rates will be lowered by 0.005. Thus Full members will be paid 0.025 BTC weekly, Sr. Members 0.03 BTC and Hero/Legendary Members 0.04 BTC.

Also, the number of participants will be lowered to 20.



Hi sir is there any slot for this campaign? Because I want to join to your campaign.
The manager just made an official statement about lowering the current number of participants to 20, and that would simply mean that there is no opening in the next round.

For you reference, you can check on the spreadsheet here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRh7WUdBHr8wgJm1IgHwRq3EV2b1ihvy833xdG-TVa-jiRIkCJ_KPuSqCbPTNgN0ho_0ewP2K4tPZbl/pubhtml
6877  Economy / Economics / Re: Build a Bank Of Bitcoin on: March 08, 2017, 07:19:08 AM
I think it is not what the creator wants he/she build it for the anonymity of everyone that uses it,
So if there would be a Bitcoin Bank anyone who are going to withdraw from it have to give their real personal information,
And also bitcoin is made to decentralization and privacy of its owner.
Yeah, it goes against everything that bitcoin stands for, besides it is not like a bitcoin bank can offer us any kind of benefit we cannot get with bitcoin as it is, bitcoin is very secure already, a ban will not be able to offer chargebacks because that is not possible with bitcoin, and interest rates could be gotten in bitcoin casinos.
Charges are possible if they operate like an exchange site where we deposit our bitcoins in a certain wallet that we created in compliance with the KYC. That way our transactions will be monitored and that is really the purpose of bitcoin bank if it's govern by the state, AMLC will play a big role in directing the bank to comply with a strict policy to prevent money laundering, with our current system where we only keep our bitcoin in an online wallet it's possible but with bitcoin bank it will not be tolerated and we might face charges against the government.
6878  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: March 08, 2017, 05:34:02 AM
Trading is very unpredictable and I think that its risky to do it but on the other hand it stays very profitable for a short term so due to that its also again worth it too.

Yes, of course, trading is unpredictable work, but if we have skills and knowledge than this predictable work give us money, but it is depend on our ability how to earn. Yeah, altcoin trading better is that earn in a short term, than it will be profitable.
but i think it is not unpredictable for those people who have good experience in trading, they not feel any difficulties to predict about the trading where they are interested.
Do you know who is it? And Is there someone is know about the bigdump on the last night? I think too difficult to predict the market movement such as a big dump by a person.
We are just basis our speculation of what we read and observed, it's good if you have many sources so you can confirm it with others if you have a relevant information that will cause a dump. If it's bitcoin, consider the dump as manipulation by the whales, do not believe that there is something bad that will happen with the market as we have seen it many times that crisis happen but still in the end bitcoin is victorious and back in his current price.

The more bitcoin will be challenge the more it gets stronger but for traders who want to make profit in short trade, being active in monitoring the market should be their priority.
6879  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which one will you used? on: March 08, 2017, 05:08:06 AM
there are a lot of us demand shop that accepting bitcoin as payment, but from this forum i found out that there are some people unwilling to spend their bitcoin, so I want to asked If you found a shop that accepted bitcoin and fiat as payment, which one will you used?

if you are using bitcoin then maybe today 1 apple is 0.0008 btc , but tomorrow with 0.0008 btc you can buy 2 apples, but if no one used bitcoin for shopping then there won't be any shop that will adopting bitcoin anymore

so what will be you choice?
The logic there is not all people are investors but we are all spenders, we who are investing in bitcoin will prefer to save more than spend our bitcoins. My opinion on that is because we are fully aware that the value of bitcoin has potential to increase substantially in the future but that would not mean that we will never spend bitcoins, of course we will also spend but in a controllable manner.

The volume of bitcoin is limited only so if more people will create demand then for sure the value will increase which in that sense we will be benefited with our investment.

6880  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 08, 2017, 03:52:45 AM
Westbrook had another monster night scoring with 58 points on a 21-39 shooting. That's too much attempt for one player alone and the combined shooting attempt of McCollum and Lillard is only 37 which is lower by 2 than westbrook made. Once again, despite of the big effort of Westbrook, OKC is still short in winning game which makes them lose for 3 straight already.

Everyone thought this will be a revenge by the Thunder but they are wrong, the line is so overvalued from a team who is not playing well in their last two games in the road. I guess they need to figure out what's the problem, Westbrook should trust his teammates more than he trust himself.
