Gambling is known to be a game of pure luck but also probability, that's if you are good at math, this is what a fellow employee said to me, he then told me to look Chris Ferguson up, to my surprise this man won millions in gambling using math, I read this man is really good at math,
He created his own gambling strategy for poker completely on math and game theory instead of trying to focus monitoring the players, this man won five world series bracelets 🤦 and over 8 millions dollars in gambling tournaments.
There is also another man called James Simons, who is named the greatest gambler of all, he made more money using math than Chris Ferguson, James net worth is over 20 billions, I was shocked, because I use to think it's impossible to gamble using any skills, this is a skill on a another level, I am mad that I am just knowing this not too long ago.
School is not important as 96% of what you learn won't be used in the real world to make money, but this 4% left is making a lot of people rich, math and gambling seems to go with each other, what do you guys think? Am I wrong or right?
Poker is a more a sport than gambling. Yes there are odds (math) that ypu need to kmwo if ypu are gonna win successfully at poker and it can be done. I put poker in a whole other subject than true gambling like sports betting, slots, roulette etc. Those you are betting against the house which always has the odds in theor favor and poker ypu are playing against other players. Huge difference. |

Best practice is just HODL.
Because in an unfortunate case of events, where Bitcoin will go back up, we might miss gains when it really happens when we have sold before.
It is risky to have a miss of profit.
Even if Bitcoin goes down more, it is likely to recover later.
But I would not sell in case Bitcoin goes up right away soon.
Agreed. If you aremt in the know than hodl is the best form of trading lol. This of course only holds true for active and promising projects. If ypu hold things like memecoins for long term ypu will likely end up going down with the ship and lose your whole bag. In a bear market hold in high cap good coins. Only gamble in straight no doubt bull markets. |

Does anyone have any useful info on the admins of this forum? Who are they and which side they are? I feel bitcointalk has let me down, so I would like to join another forum if it's possible and would like to know about altcoinstalk team.
You won't get the same type of engagement from other open forums. Knowing this was the original no point in moving on. What exactly is it that let ypu down. The problem here mostly has to do with scammers but if you split for another forum and it' gets big same thing will happen there. Tough to find a place to get the engagement that this forum has. |

Sorry mate, seems like the home team are holding strong and I won my bet on this game.
That first quarter was the turning point, Cleveland outscored the Magic by 17 points and Magic weren't able to have a big run although they won the 2nd and 4th quarter.
That explosive first half from the Cavs made me accept my bet as a loss.  The Magic did show a bit of hope in the third quarter, but they couldn't maintain it and the Cavs shut the door in the fourth quarter. The home win from the Clippers was impressive. I thought the Nuggets would keep on rolling after the double-digit lead they built in the first quarter, but the Clippers immediately recovered in the second and even took the lead. The Nuggets almost got it together heading into the fourth quarter, but they missed so many shots. Cavs are tough to bet against them at home, especially against a young orlando team. They are hot but I think the right move is going against Orlando for a bit. Don't think they can continually keep this pace up just yet I expect a pullback. And yeah I think everyone was shocked at the Denver game but it all fell on jokic missing 22 shots which is insanely out of character for him. Everyone has those games. Best know I'm betting on Denver next game. He won't have 2 duds in a row. |

People are accusing Zach LaVine of faking his foot injury to force a trade to the Lakers. He’s even scheduled to return when DiAngelo Russell becomes eligible to be traded. I’m not sure if I believe this, but it is within the realm of possibility. I don’t think Zach LaVine will still be a member of the Chicago Bulls when the trade deadline rolls around.
I don't even think he needs to fake an injury. Makes it harder for the team to trade him unless ypu mean he is doing it to tank the bulls. Either way derozen, lavone, etc should all be gone. Bulls need to blow it all up get mass amount of picks and be bad for a couple years. No reason dragging this team forward any longer. |

We all know the recent issue about the mixer status here in the forum. Crypto casino is also being use for money laundering by some criminals that’s why every casino has AML policy.
I’m just curious what will be the fate of crypto casino once money laundering activity from mixer will jump to casino now that mixer will not be advertised here which means it has less exposure. Is there any possibility that crypto casino will be seized by the government just like what happened to mixers in case they failed to screen the laundering activity?
I mean it's natural for criminals to use Amy method to wash money. Mixers are easy targets and for the most part there is no legal reason to use them so it's easy Pickens. For casinos most of it I would imagine is clean money but there isn't much a casino could do. I couldn't see them being "seized". It's like brick and mortar casinos, tons of dirty money plays there but there really isn't anything a casino can do. |

For some reason (probably because of the past) I still see Lakers as a dysfunctioning team and not proper team that can win anything. However, when you look at the situation think about it this way when they are at semi finals of in-tournament situation and also the fourth seed type of thing then when we need to think about it then it should be something that would be quite obvious that they are doing better than what I think will be fine, that should be the most important part.
I believe that we should be considering the situation that should be something that would be all that important and if they keep this up then we should be considering the situation as good. If they win this title and do fine at playoffs, then that's a good season overall.
Was nice to see playoff Bron in December I like this tournament. In a normal regular season game he doest do half of what he did last night. I'm with you I still think they need another piece. Possibly a center. AD plays too much like a small forward. I wouldn't change his role just think ypu need someone to lock up the paint. |

The Sacramento Kings lost. Ouch! Moving on.
I like those picks @stadus, I think I am tailing that.
Over should be the easy bet, ... But we still have the 2nd half of the game, hopefully Bucks would be able to pull away with a big lead and bring us the "W"...As they say, no big lead is safe as anytime a team could have a big run and beat their opponent with the spreads, Bucks should be able to deliver that to us. Halftime score. NYK 72 .. Bucks 75. I expected this game to be the lowest scoring one of the the knock out round, at least at half time, as I've got them on the Under for the first half, but that's a lost cause already. Despite the being quite physical both teams playing some great defensive plays, I'm extremely surprised by the offensive effectiveness of both teams too, Milwaukee with quite of 3pts shot fall for them, Lillard 4/4 3PT, A.J. Green 3/3 of 3PT as well, the high scoring nature of this fixture is literally about the extremely great scoring percentage from both parties so far. Perfect storm of the Knicks not shooting any 3s they are real good in the paint and stayed away from bricking tons of 3s early on. And the flip side Bucks could not miss any 3s. Without looking I think they shot over 60%. Knicks fan here was tough to watch with them not being able to stop literally anything. As it stands I sneaky like the Pacers to win this whole thing. |

Only 2 games tonight but they’re both televised on TNT. The Kings and Pelicans matchup might be a good game to watch if you can tear yourself away from watching a Bitcoin ticker.
With these being in season touny quarterfinals I expect both games tonight and tomorrow to be good. Should have a playoff type feel to them I'm actually looking forward to the Celtics Pacers game. With how fast paced and high scoring this game could end up being crazy. I got Pelicans and Pacers taking tonight's games. I’ve never been much of a fan of watching the Pacers. I’ve got a special spot for the Kings though having grown up in Sacramento. I’m always on Zion watch as well. Hopefully Zion gets some highlights in and the Kings get to light the beam.  As a knicks fan I despise the Pacers growing up watching reggie cook the Knicks in msg constantly. I'm a full Haliburton fan. Hot take: he will end up being a top 5 player in the league within 3 years. Dude just cooks. Couldn't believe when sacramento let him go. Yeah they got sarongs but Hali is special |

As we are either in bull run or approaching it I wanted to understand about investment opinions from fellow users as Bitcoin will remain the first choice of investment but if we want more profit we know we have to go ahead with Altcoin for higher profit with higher risk involved. But when it comes to Altcoin would you prefer the established coins like ETH, XRP, Matic, BNB and SOL or wanna give a chance to newbuds which will bloom during this bullrun ? Existing ones who has pumped during last bullrun or new finds ? Which one would be your choice of investment?
I would prefer new Altcoins which is entering bullrun for the first time.
Based on previous runs I'd say that is the correct way to look at it so long as you understand it's insanely more risky and greater probability of going to $0. Take litecoin, yeah you might not get a mega pump out of it but you also know you won't get rugged buying into it. For me it's bitcoin and some small gambles on some altcoins which show some promise. |

I have come to the conclusion that no matter what happens, bitcoin still remain the father of Crypto currency. As at the year 2021 zugacoin was the most expensive coin in the history of Crypto currency, which worth beyond the price of bitcoin at about $285,677 clamouring for $450k then. I was thinking that how possible is it that a coin could be over expensive compeard to the first Crypto currency? But today I went to check if the price of zuga has met it target, but only to discover that it's just worth noting less than $1 at about $0.157 this made me believe that bitcoin still remain the Head. So what do you guys think was the cause of suden dip of zugacoin? https://www.google.com/url?q=https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/zugacoin/&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwi4yLKF5eWCAxXVWEEAHVMjAbsQFnoECAcQAg&usg=AOvVaw2n-vhuwGX1HVeNEDuyzygaIt's volume based. Meaning if no one was buying it someone could buy a fraction of a coin to represent an insane value. Like buying .0000001 zugacoin for $10. If no one else is buying then the price per coin will look insane. Unless there is true volume behind a coin never just merely looking at coin price as an indicator of its value. |

I believe each one of us have different experience. While others are getting hard time in triggering bonus other can easily hit them with just a few spin. As for Hacksaw I believe it is designed for bonus buy, it is also labeled high to extreme volatility slots so it is understandable that triggers might be difficult on this one, about waszdan, I never played any game from that slots provider so I can't say any experience about that slots. Anyway if we continue discussing about worst slot, prbably we may list them all since as I stated, different user, different experience and even though many like NoLimit City, I find it worst slots to trigger bonus stage. The game from this provider often gives their player 0x when they are unlucky.  Agreed. If you perennially lose somewhere you will just say they are the worst when in reality your "luck" was the worst at those sites. I think a better way to attack this is customer service wise are there any casinos you would avoid because you got taken, whether they cheated you out of winnings, locked your account, etc. Worst casino odds is subjective unless you are talking real audits. |

Would have, could have, should have. I get it in that you could have won more but I reality if you were betting more money you might have altered your entire bet to go even safer and you would have missed out on any winnings at all. You can never tell what would have happened to something that didn't. Be glad you won and move on.

Why am I the one whom ALWAYS has the most injuries in fantasy football. I swear to god every single year I lose key players more so than anyone else. Rhamondre Stevenson looks hurt badly. Prob season ender. I swear to god man smh. Dude had 7pts in the first quarter and was primed for a huge day. What is everyone's assessment on the Bengals vs. the Jaguars? I am very much aware that the Bengals are nothing without Joe Burrow, however, can the Jaguars win against the spread with 9.5 in this game? Bengals +9 might cover, I reckon.
Also, the Lions -4.5? This might be a good opportunity to for them to come back and win after their loss against the Packers.
I think they could definitely cover this spread. Jacksonville has been playing well lately and could def see them beating that spread. Yeah you've had a pretty bad run but this year seems like it has been bad all the way around. I got screwd pretty hard in all my leagues this year. Don't think a top 2 pick in any of my leagues has made it out unscathed. Next year I'm switching up my draft a little. Just gonna draft an entire teams full set of running backs or wide receivers lol. |

Here are the results for my picks for the NBA games yesterday, Chicago Bulls (2.27) VS New Orleans Pelicans (1.67) - LOST It was a close game and it was actually a back-and-forth game but eventually, the New Orleans Pelican was leading at the end of halftime because of Herb Jones, Zion Williamson, and Brandon Ingram they managed this, but for sure the Chicago Bulls didn't allow this and eventually got their rhythm with Ayo Dosunmu, Torrey Craig, DeMar DeRozan, and Coby White getting this game a win for them, and a lost for my bet, Milwaukee Bucks (1.41) VS Atlanta Hawks (3.00) - WIN It was a close game as well until the end of halftime and the Milwaukee Bucks got the 4-point lead until they Milwaukee Bucks didn't let it slip in the 4th quarter actually an amazing performance for Saddiq Bey, Dejounter Murray, and Trae Young for the Hawks and keeping the score close, but eventually the Milwaukee Bucks with Malik Beasley, Cameron Payne, and Damian Lillard's play makes have eventually gained the momentum and Giannis Antetokounmpo triple-double, Dallas Mavericks (2.39) VS Oklahoma City Thunders (1.61) - WIN Close game for the Oklahoma City Thunders and the OKC got a lead in the 1st half closing the halftime with 72 points OKC and 56 Mavericks, but the Dallas Mavericks cut the lead to nothing in the 4th quarter, but the Oklahoma City Thunders managed to take the close win against the Mavericks and Luca Doncic's incredible triple-double performance, but the OKC manage to win this with 6 points lead, Los Angeles Lakers (1.52) VS Houston Rockets (2.60) - WIN Nice couple of wins there. Crazy that Dallas went on a 30-0 run and couldn't win the game. Think it was one of the longest runs without winning the game in history. Lula was a beast. Looking at the games ahead for the playin tourny and can't decide. I think I have to lay on the Knicks as a Homer bet but can't decide on the others yet. |

It's impossible to Guage the bottom so if you don't want to miss out but don't want to buy too high than dollar cost average weekly or monthly. So instead of going all in buy some now and some later. That way ypu don't miss a pump completely but don't have the downside risk of your full bag if it drops.

There is no such luck that one person has over another it's mere coincidence on random based games. Some people win more than other people but that is just the way it goes, it's not all the time. Gambling isn't just for the lucky and rich its for anyone who uses it as a form of entertainment which I do.

Nope. You can have a 1,000 psychics and there is a good chance no one can tell you the exact score of say the superbowl. Just like with crypto there is too much scammery in that world. Use science, stats and trends not a person with a crystal ball with no vested interest in the outcome of your gambling. |

I mean technically you can make anything a "full time profession". If you are single it's less risky but if you have a family, I would ride or die on gambling to support your family. What happens if ypu go bust? Now other people have to suffer from you choice of not getting a continual paying job. Leave gambling for fun. If you make a ton of money doing it, count it as a bonus.
