Hey! Good day i really need some answers because its about gambling in your life and other people are playing for it with heart and i just thought that how can gambling help you with your life? and do you gain something from it? does it help you to be wise or worst your attitude will change.. i need answers please!
Gambling helps us because we can get money from it we are gaining lots of money and in the same time we are also gaining lots of friends from gambling and gambling can relax us playing games enjoys us helps us relax and remove our problem while gaining money and gaining friends
Gambling will help you by getting a lot of money ? Do you think gambling industry having their own mint to print and circulate money on their own wish ?
If you are making money from gambling somehow then you may find a real help from it but there will be no guarantee you will always win from gambling to find help from it.
If we do win some cash that's the time we can able to say that we are being helped by gambling when it comes to money but we would really said it back that it wouldn't later on specially when you lose up all that you have in the end of the game. I cant think on the things which gambling does give but only regrets and depressions on losing too much money.
7062  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: July 30, 2017, 01:37:41 PM
I've just thought about this for a moment but, if we want bitcoin to get more popularity, attention or acceptance would it be nice to make some advertisement about it on T.V.? I don't know if in other countries they advertise bitcoin but in my country, I haven't seen one. How do you think advertising bitcoin will affect the people? Any thoughts?
It will be a great idea. Since you have just said that it is not yet popular in some countries even it is already widely spread worldwide. The help of technology with the use of different medium such as television to advertise bitcoin will be a sure help and effective to make it popular on many people who do not know bitcoin yet. Advertisements will be a great help to make them understand better what bitcoin is.
But I think it will not be so attracted viewers tv because I feel most people who watch tv are older people or have stable jobs, they only care about news, they do not care about bitcoin. In addition, advertising on tv is quite expensive, we should choose the more economical alternative, it is best to advertise bitcoin on forums and social networking sites, this is where young people are interested, they will help bitcoin become more popular.

Having advertisements on TV would be somehow costly than using other mediums like social media and forums same as you said since internet is the mainstream as of now and people would able to see if theres someone would post on public places about bitcoin. Out of curiosity for some they would really be curios about bitcoin. Showing about it on TV would be a hard stuff for sure because most media would only tell the negative sides of bitcoin rather than on positive ones.
7063  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gift For Kid on: July 30, 2017, 05:30:27 AM
I went to store to buy a toy for my kid and I was surprised to see this "toy"



What surprised me was that "+8" sign. While gambling is not allowed for persons under 18, toys like this are pretty much allowed.

In my honest opinion that sign should be "+18" and no one should be allowed to sell this to kids.

I mean, seriously? Would you buy this for your kid?

What is wrong in this kind of toy? It's more like a normal game, one kids can play for fun and they can understand colors and numbers. This shall help them know that if they play with money they will loose. This is a very nice game and it shall help all children understand what it is to play with money and the consequences of loosing it. So I see nothing wrong in it.
If you solely buy this toy just for the sake of making them realize then it would really be a bad idea since you wont know if your child would able to realize such thing or not because we do have different mentality when it comes to gambling. If you don't really like for your kids to be a future gambler then better not to expose them on these kind of games because if they would able to encounter them for an earlier age I think it would really mold them to be a gambler.
7064  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: July 30, 2017, 03:33:16 AM
Although we already use the strategy in gambling. We still lose because we sometimes do not obey what we have made. I myself once made a matter of gambling. But in practice I can not practice what I have made

using strategy in gambling sometime work but the other can not work because gambling games is design for just eat our money until the last money. so no matter we use strategy and how good the strategy, its still difficult for us to win the gambling games, but if you always have a luck beside you then you can always win the games. unfortunately, the anwer for have a luck is impossible because luck can not predicted when its come and when its not.
Luck is really a major thing here on gambling world but there are instances on which strategy and analysis does really matter specially on those games who are mostly relying on those things like we would see on card games,sports bet and more which require it but these things wont really work on luck based games like slots and dice games and other which don't really need necessarily on having strategy.
7065  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The reason why BTC-E users will not get their money back on: July 29, 2017, 06:58:13 AM
This is why I don't really trust any exchanges because anytime they will shut its door leaving all the investor or users on its platforms behind without a single cent to their money which are being store on it. Its really sad to know for those people who are victimized again on this matter. They should really consider those coins as lost because owners will definitely do the best as they can to secure those bitcoin or money.
7066  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: July 29, 2017, 05:50:28 AM
If you expect profit from gambling, it is almost impossible to stop, because you are sure that it will be a little more time and you will be able to get what you want, but only loss comes.

Yes, gambling for profit is very very addictive because people keep on coming back to gambling to try their luck or for recovering their losses. It is quite hard to stop when you're playing for money because of greediness whether you lose or earn money still you will continue until you lose all your money. The best thing to do is play always with a small fixed amount and enjoy for some time.
If you do really plan to make money on gambling then these aims will really put you on trouble later on because you will eventually make wrong things because knowing gambling that its more on losing that winning which means we would really forced up to deposit even more because we do aim already on break even or chase those lose which means we end up as losers on playing gambling if we aren't lucky enough on that day.
7067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: From faucet to thousands on: July 29, 2017, 05:16:43 AM
Let's face the fact faucets naturally are sites paying bits of Bitcoin per hour or so. Normally for someone to earn such amount of money you need to either work hard by your self or work with bot.
gambling should remove the free faucet where they can get free bits to gamble again some of people nowadays are using lots of account and then set up the auto bet till their coins will become higher but this took hours before you see the result  don't use bot sometimes i do work on my own guts.
What exactly is wrong with that? Casinos are actually gaining more patronage as a result of faucet people can use to test their game before deciding to deposit or not.

I think his concern is the abused in the system but I think its only a small amount. Faucets does not gives too much and is time consuming.Aside from that the coins he gets from faucets can be played again and sometimes it return back to owner if the player losses.
That is right the amount faucet dice sites give are purposely made small and well below the minimum payout to make it near impossible for people to collect faucet and cash it out the next minute and in the process of wanting to multiply it, they calculate they would likely run into some hitch sooner than it is possible to reach minimum payout. However people are often able to beat all that.
although getting a faucet with a small amount and intend to use the gamble I think it's a waste of time in addition to need a lot of time the gamble from the results of the faucet will not show the profit because the value is small if you lose you will return to the beginning.
This is the main thing here on thinking of on making huge amounts out of faucet which we know they are just pennies and it would really takes time depending on your betting habit. If you are playing with faucet amounts and do make yolo bets most of the time then its possible to reach out thousands amounts but same as you said one mistake and you will surely go back to the beginning and even worse you would decide to deposit money.
7068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to deal with multiple accounts and abusing faucet? on: July 25, 2017, 03:16:42 AM
Not so long ago, we simplify registration process at our site leaving only the username field...
As a consequence, we are faced with a problem of creating multiple accounts by the same user and abusing faucet (faucet at our site - 0.007 mBTC and only request every 3 hours when balance is zero).
Guys, what solutions do you recommend?  Huh
Thank you!
Lower the faucet amount and at the same time put max claims per day and should not based on hourly limitations because it is really prone on abuse.Set max claims per IP so that those abusers would really have a hard time on abusing faucet this is not new anymore and you are not only whos experiencing such problem but most sites do experience this such abuse thats why strict limitations would really be needed.
7069  Economy / Speculation / Re: Should I cash out my BTC now? on: July 25, 2017, 02:51:06 AM
If you had your payment in BTC, would you cash out your money or you would wait increasing of cryptocurrency?
Depending on how do you treat your bitcoins since people do have different treatment into their bitcoin, some will keep it for long term and save as much as they can and others do actively cash-out it since they do need in money. It depends on peoples decision because we do have different status in life specially on financial matters.If you are a person which needs money on constant basis for some needs then its not bad to cashhout those bitcoins.
7070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: July 24, 2017, 01:25:47 PM
Just want know how much the gamblers who use analysis when play gambling and what kinds of gambling game? And do you think it is needed or not making analysis on gambling game or it is depend on lucky. Thanks for share your opinions and experience.


Analysis is very iportant also, if you play poker.one thing is that - you must be very patient and play with intelect. you must not think about money when you playing poker, you must read your opponents by their actions.Olso you must be lucky person to earn something,but you can win by very bad card against AA.i think that Experience won't reduce your losses also analysis won't help you to win in gambling. You can't analyze random game based on luck with negative expected value. there is no permanent strategy for this games,noone can win in gambling at last.the best way to win something in gambling , play with just a little amount that you don't care about it.
Playing poker will really need experience and tactics for you to increase your winning chance against another player but still it would need some luck but necessary because if you do know how to handle and draw your cards then it would be an edge, Faking outs will be useful too and this game would really depend on how you gonna execute it smartly.
7071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: July 24, 2017, 11:24:31 AM
It is many, like when you win and you should have withdrew and come back the next day, but you continue playing the game and ended up losing the whole money. Its painful.

I always do that. Bit you mist remember if tou had carried on and won you wouldn't be co planning because you would be a winner. Its always easy to think about it after the fact. Its like saying "oh I should have picks black not red" when playing roullete. Ypu only say thst after the fact because you k ow the outcome. While gsm long you dont know the outcome and its luck and a guess. Thst is what makes gambling so fun for people.
yes i agree on that.maybe  it is hard to make profit in gambling.you were just like predicting your bet.it is really hard to predict.so in this case the  worst mistake of the gambler is  that being addicted in gambling.that was the reality.
Thinking off on the description of gambling is just really predicting on your bets which would really require extreme luck for you to be able to make profits. Worst mistakes is really when people do already got addicted to it which causes for them to lose up money later on. If addiction is too severe it would really wreck ones life for sure.
7072  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [UPDATED]: The OFFICIAL SegWit2x Lock-in Thread on: July 24, 2017, 10:06:15 AM
why exactly is it called "lock-in" phase ?

What locked-in (and activated) was BIP91.  That is an agreement for all miners to vote for segwit (and also the 2MB HF in November).

Now that BIP91 is active, 100% of miners must vote SW.  This means that SW is guaranteed to lock-in and then activate.  It hasn't yet though.  The vote takes 2 weeks and when the vote passes, SW will be considered locked-in.  It will activate 2 weeks later.

This is a good way for them to ensure the success of hardfork, segwit will definitely be enabled however, I suppose there are some people disagree, so 100% is a wrong number.
100% is really a wrong number because if there would be perfect number then there would be no voting at all on the very first place and instead of making some negotiations or polls they would directly go the same thing since they are all agreed on the same stuff. Theres always a side who would really reject on such actions. I will say 99.99% would be better Cheesy
7073  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tell me the trading strategy. on: July 24, 2017, 09:06:19 AM
My biggest problem in trading is that I was too brave to buy altcoin at a high price, and because of that I often lost my btc, even once I lost 50% of my btc when I bought altcoin at a price far above ICO.

So please give me feedback on this, what should I do?
Emotions or Patience is really a harmful thing if you don't really much control of it when it comes on investments or shall we say on the times we do buy coins. Don't ever try to do on buying on its peak or higher on the ICO price since possibility of price decrease or dumps do normally happen on trading world and once you funds are floating on negative then better not to cut loss but just still hang in there and wait for the right time to sell when the price rebounds back.
7074  Economy / Economics / Re: Whats next after BIP 91? on: July 24, 2017, 04:17:12 AM
After reading about BIP 91 on coindesk, this obviously isn't a permanent solution for the possible fork in BTC. Does anyone know what will come after in the coming months?

There won't be any problems for August but the next step is going to be a hardfork to 2 MB blocks I think in November. This is where the real problems could start.
Why dont they just implement the hard fork already so that they wont be fear among investors again in November, August 1 has already caused enough problem among investors which drove the currency way down last weekend.
We do really like on this way but we cant do anything since this is already been set and you are right August 1 event did really affect bitcoins environment which causes for its price to dip again but instead of worrying too much we should really see this as an opportunity than as a problem. If you are an active trader you will surely love these movements for sure.
7075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: July 24, 2017, 03:12:47 AM
Leave the game when you think you have enough profit. Never ever tell yourself that you can still gamble and win more because you will only lose in the end. People tend to do that and end up losing everything.
Enough profits ? If I would have got chances to have some profits, probably I will stop gambling right after those profits. Unfortunately I never get chances to see any profits and for the process of recovering my earlier losses, I keep on gambling and leaving the gambling only when I am running short of bankroll. You are just talking of positive side of gambling but I am still struggling with negative earning.

When gambling is giving you some satisfaction in terms of at least some little profits, you will be thinking to stop at right times. But when you are struggling and you are not at all finding any justification why you come to gamble then most probably you will never stop.

What are you trying to say then? Of course when you gamble, you don't really expect you'd profit that much. I don't know how you gamble but when I was into gambling, I set or I have a target amount on when to stop. And it is expected you'd have lots of losses than winnings on gambling, its pure luck for those who always win when they gamble too. Probably what he/she meant about enough profit is the target amount he/she set she gained from playing.
We only need to set the amount that we can afford to lose, other than that save it ang stop if you already use what you set an amount for gambling, do not waste another bitcoin, minute and effort for you to lose again. It is also important to value our bitcoin because it can also increase when you save some of it.

Everyday we gambling with limited amount that we just set unfortunately it won't affect to us from losing many people still get negative profit in their statistic and some people get profit from it, it's only affect to how much amount we loss. It's better to not try gamble at all even when you already into gamble don't play it so often it would make your wallet dry.
Some people doesn't think of that. They continue playing  even if they already losing huge amount. They still gamble often because that is their nature, people who are addicted are hard to leave the game. They need some advice of an expect for them to understand, and I guess they already need psychiatrist.
They dont really necessary need a psychiatrist since if you are really sensible or serious on quitting gambling you can actually do it without the help from others but most people do really have this kind of problem which they cant able to get out on gambling addiction which makes their lives miserable talking about financial state because on such addiction they really compromise their money.
If you are serious on quitting gambling then you wont really need the help of others in able to do so but its not really bad to seek help because there are times on which we cant even handle our problems which do we need the help of others. Leaving the game in the middle is really hard to do specially when gambling game is somehow already like a hobby to us.
7076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you would win a Jackpot what would you do with the money? on: July 24, 2017, 02:39:23 AM
Ow never experience to win 200 btc but if i can win that amount or experience that i win a jackpot almost 200 btc.. i think i can only spend a small amount i think 50 btc is just to buy a house and more 50 btc to start a new business  that i think it can live for a long time or to stay increase my money to live without gambling back again..
I would do the same thing on which when i do hit that jacpot i would really allocate it on my primary needs and would never tend to plan on going back to play gambling again since i know that i do already secured my future knowing that 200 btc is already huge for me and i can make lots of things on that money. Just really to secure things first before those money would be lost completely on your hands.
7077  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is betting a good choice for a newbie? on: July 23, 2017, 03:04:47 PM
ofcourse betting is a good choice there's no wrong on playing gambling even you're just a newbie. try your luck. what if this is your destiny. a path where you can be a multimillionaire. just remember this phrase, play with your full potential and neglect the greediness. it will make you lose all your money if you are so greedy in gambling .

Yeah, it is a good choice for newbie to play gambling. Gambling is a plate forum where we could check our luck and also get reward if we are lucky ones. But if we are not lucky then simply we get lose also, it has no meaning we left to play it. In this way, we are right telling for newbie, play gambling but neglect the greediness.
newbie also can adopt what they do incase there an trouble or having a short money if they need it tho the luck their wanted to be not all people are lucky to manage to win in gambling but if you really had patient to play until you play in the long run then goo. We can't please all newbie to not to play gambling as they like to play.
In short, theres no restriction on playing gambling on which either a newbie or professional they do all have the rights since its their own money to play on. They might be new on this field but playing on it isn't really prohibited at all. This is the start on which those first time or newbie players would possibly got gambling addiction if they don't really good on self control.
7078  Other / Off-topic / Re: Job Vs Bitcoin on: July 23, 2017, 01:03:18 PM
I wouldn't suggest that. I don't know how old are you and what experiences you have but without steady income is hard to live. And Bitcoin is still too risky and uncertain way of earning that you sometimes can't influence on. But on the other hand if you don't have any financial obligations and still are very young you could try, nothing to lose.
Until this moment, Bitcoin has helped millions of people wealthy. However, the miracle happened only to those who invested in time, spent some time with Bitcoin and were lucky. Therefore, having a certain source of income from your career is still a safer option. I still encourage taking bitcoin to get rich quick, but do not give up your career to join Bitcoin. There will both be better.
Having these kind of motivations isn't really bad on thinking that bitcoin is the way on easy rich move in the future but it does really need money to be invested in to make those things possible since we do know the price of bitcoin is already high. If you do have the right funds to put then it would be just fine. For me I would do both things on having a job and the same time to make engagement on bitcoin jobs.
7079  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: July 23, 2017, 10:32:17 AM
I will leave the game if i lost all my balance or i don't have money to spend gambling. I don't want all my money to gone because of gambling. I just want to play it for fun and it's more fun if i don't lose.
It was almost the same losing all your balance before leaving gambling ,Spend only what you can afford to lose and I don't believe you just play for fun because i'm sure you will don't lose all your money to satisfy your intention to have fun.
In these kind of cases a particular gambler is already chasing his loses for sure and you are right if you do really seek for fun why would stop if you do only lose all of your money in the end? Which means your plays aren't really for enjoyment at all but rather on seeking money or just already chasing loses. If we do play gambling we should really assume that those money are gone.If we do won then its just a bonus.
7080  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cryptocurrencies and bet fraud on: July 23, 2017, 07:00:50 AM
One of the most important feature of cryptocurrencies is privacy, if done right it's very hard to find the person behind an address, which sadly attracts criminals to crypto. Now, bet fraud is when a person who can directly influence the outcome of some event bets on it, and the privacy features of cryptocurrencies are making it easier. A sportsman can place a huge bet against himself and than just throw the match and take a huge amount of money, and it would be impossible to spot this because betting was done anonymously via cryptocurrencies. Sometimes it's easy to spot that the player is intentionally throwing, in other cases it's almost impossible to tell, also huge bets on weak picks might raise suspicions, but if done right, it might be very hard to spot the fraud.

Do you know any stories about bet frauds committed with cryptocurrencies?

Is there any way to prevent or investigate it?


I haven't still encountered on this kind of frauds since if I do saw some big bets on weak picks and I do normally treat it as an usual thing on this betting world. Whats the point of their throwing? No one would able to place big bets if they aren't sure but yet its gambling that's why we do risk money and the amount we do like. This is the beauty of bitcoin which we can able to place bets without being traced and hide your identity anonymously.
